U.S. Embassy Tells Americans in Russia to Leave Immediately
Breitbart ^ | 2.27.2022 | Paul Bois

Posted on 02/27/2022 6:39:17 PM PST by libh8er

The United States Embassy has told Americans in Russia to leave the country immediately while outbound flights remain available.

In a security alert on its website Sunday, the U.S. Embassy in Russia warned Americans to flee the country due to the continued cancelation of commercial flights.

“An increasing number of airlines are canceling flights into and out of Russia, and numerous countries have closed their airspace to Russian airlines,” the alert said. “U.S. citizens should consider departing Russia immediately via commercial options still available.”

The U.S. Embassy further reminded Americans in the country that the Department of State’s Travel Advisory has set Russia at “Level 4: Do Not Travel.”

“Do not travel to Russia due to ongoing tension along the border with Ukraine, the potential for harassment against U.S. citizens, the embassy’s limited ability to assist U.S. citizens in Russia, COVID-19 and related entry restrictions, terrorism, harassment by Russian government security officials, and the arbitrary enforcement of local law,” the travel advisory states.

To be honest, I think that’s a cop out. You’re better than that.

Dude, are you drunk? Or just having a weak moment. Either way, there’s no reason to speak to JimRob like that, after all he does for us. How about you just give him a thank you, for already answering you, instead. And for giving you the platform you just used to harass him with.

Russia will not hold Americans hostage. He’s not that far gone.

The Ukrainian government is a bunch of corrupt idiots. Putin is a bad dude.

Maybe so, but Russia just invaded a neighbor because, supposedly, they were interested in joining a security alliance that stands against Russia invading neighbors. Which proves their point, just a little bit.

Well, that and Pootie-Poot’s speech the other night where he outright admits he wants the USSR to come back vampire-like from the dead

FR has always had a pro-Russia chorus, usually popping up late at night. I think it’s pretty dumb to still be sticking up for them when they’re literally upping their nuclear threat.

I think you and I just disagree on fundamentalist terms.
I think this is globalism v nationalism. I think China is terrible and so is Russia.
I think globalism is worse, which is why Soros et al, are for Ukraine.
I think the end result will result in a globalist end game.
When the “bad guys” are gone, we are the bad guys.
I appreciate your honesty, but I think you’re wrong.
I think we’ll regret supporting Ukraine.
There is a balance, or there is domination.
Thank you for explaining.

Oh, oh, ohhhhh! Now I get you. Sounds like you’re saying we should forget about Pootie and Xi, et al, and turn our guns inwards? Nope, things are bad, very bad, but not going there.

I think both Ukraine and Russia are bad actors.
There is no “good guy”.
I think in time we’ll wonder what good came of this.
I think globalism is the worst evil ever.
Hate Jews, hate blacks, hate whatever, there will be no dissent eventually.
Globalism will crush the world, our thoughts first..
Why is the only concern about “white countries”?
Crush them with 3rd world immigration then sow discontent.
Only homogenous cultures have pride.
Non homogenous countries fight over scraps.

I’m truly sorry you think that.
I’m a patriot and veteran.
I enlisted because of love for country and every male American ever served.
This is a non binary situation. There are grays.

Biden has a real knack for asking US citizens to leave a country on their own as the exits are closing. Then shrugging his shoulders if anyone is left behind.

I appreciate your honesty, but I think you’re wrong…I think this is globalism v nationalism.

And I think you’ve lost it. Nationalism is not crossing your own border to attack someone on the other side, just because you want their territory as your own. That’s a phony misuse of the term nationalism just like Hitler did.

JimRob probably doesn’t want me interjecting here but you have some nerve trying to draw him into some silly argument you apparently want to make on behalf of Putin’s supposed honor. I’m sure he’ll just laugh it off but you should sign off before embarrassing yourself further.

Not a fan of Keynes, but he did say one eternal truth: In the long run we are all dead.

Nationalism as an idea came about 50 or so years after our war of Independence. It was influenced by the consolidation of European monarchies but is not an ancient concept. It is a garbage ideology exported from Europe to the rest of the world.

Russia has a declining population, a sh-t economy and high rates of substance abuse. They are much more of a decadent society than ours.

Didn’t you just post above:

Western countries are acting like tyrants.
Freedom is over, game over.

Have you learned nothing over the last two years of “lockdown”?
Russia is nothing to us, our tyrants locally are.
May God forgive us, they won’t.

At present, the chance of getting hit by stray fire is reason enough to leave Ukraine, IMO. Plus all the other stuff that can happen in a war zone.

If the Russians take over, they or whatever puppet gov’t they install (reinstall) is most likely going to be facing in all but limited areas in the East a continuing insurrection - one that may have calm periods, but will also have unpredictable blow ups. Resentment on both sides will be high, and sometimes ugly. It would take extremely repressive actions to, well, repress this. Not something most people would want to get caught in by accident.

Moreover, until Putin & co. are gone, IMO the West has no choice but to grind Russia into the dust. This will take time, hundreds of millions will suffer, and resentments will be high.

All that said, the article is about leaving Russia, and, the reasons given are clear.

Yes, I did. We have lost our way.
What Americans gave a **** about Ukrainians three weeks ago?
We have an election in 8 months, should we fight or come together?
What is the point of this fight?
We stay together or we are lost.

“Color me very suspicious . . .”

I’m with you, I’m extrememy suspicious and I’ve commented on the absurdity of some reports comming out of Ukraine. I don’t really care about Europe’s problems except when they affect me and my family. The dipstick in the White House is doing his damndest to cause this to affect us and I question his motives.

Well, I have no idea why you’re bitchin’ at me. If I posted something awful, please link it to me. Meanwhile, I’m 100% for a MAGA congress in Nov and Trump in ‘24.

Btw, I’m also a vet. Served aboard 3 destroyers between ‘65 - ‘69 (went to Vietnam on 2 of them) when we were actually shooting commies. Now we’ve got them running our government. Damned hard to take.
