I get the idea of no American lives lost, and that the Europeans should be paying their fair share. To say nothing of the fact that Russia is kind of like a drunk with an AK47 staggering around, raging at everyone, not worthy of respect, deference or even life but still to be treated gingerly, until you can disarm and take them down. Plus the fact that I really doubt that the Ukranian government is any better than any other in that area, even if Zelensky has played to part of Leader better than anyone in my lifetime...

But the love for that Putin just because he is supposedly anti homosexual and pro ‘Christianity; is vile. So F-ing what, you know? Some of these Putinistas think throwing the words ‘Soros’, Globohomo’ and some deranged raving about ‘biolabs’ justifies kissing Russian ass when they are being an egregious bad guy. This ‘enemy of my enemy is my friend’ BS is disgusting.

Actions have consequences. When Russia invaded they took the risk of facing the consequences. Ukraine is not going to sacrifice its national sovereignty for other countries interests

True. But it wasn't one-sided.

"Over 14,000 civilians of Russian ethnicity in the Donbass were killed by US trained Ukrainian forces and the @PentagonPresSec openly boasts that they have armed and trained the Ukrainians for 8 YEARS. Who would have ever expected a Russian response?

"And that makes Russia, the CCP, Iran, and the rest of those who support Russia the good guys by definition. Hope you like who's on your team."

The first thing that struck me as this whole debacle was taking place was that the West was cutting off Russia, steeling their money, property, and honor, and forcing them into the arms of China. I also thought, "there goes the Petro Dollar" as well, and the fertilizer, and the grain, and the diesel, and the natural gas.

Is it my imagination or is Putin beginning to look like the Pillsbury Dough Boy?

“Funny how I only see the Bidenista locusts on the Ukraine threads, but not on other threads. “

I post on all types of threads constantly. So you must be a Putard who only reads the Ukraine threads else you would know that.

Even your Russian news agency says it, so stop with the lies.

"To date, about 14,000 people have been killed in Donbass. This number includes [Ukrainian armed forces] servicemen and civilian casualties. We regularly update this data," he said. Kuleba’s speech has been posted on the Slovak Foreign Ministry’s website.

"I’m getting a true view of the war from my family and friends in the Ukraine."

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wuOptWUTR3w What did your friends and family say about doing this to Russians in Odessa? Did they enjoy burning them alive or beating them to death after they were forced to jump? I hadn't seen anything so sickening since 9-11.

I watched the video. It has nothing to do with what Kim Dotcom's claim, which misrepresentations information that has been available for years.

Ukraine has no "national sovereignty." It is owned by globalist gangsters.

You might want to consider that millions of Ukrainians would disagree.

Good thing that DC still has "national sovereignty" and isn't owned by globalist gangsters.

You might want to consider that it's not their choice you empty-headed virtue-signaler.
