I’m sorry I was unclear, I was primarily addressing the current Russia/Ukraine issue.

I have no idea what you Russian patriots mean when you say neocon. It’s like a non sense word you think makes you sound coherent.

Kaliningrad should be given back to Germany as Koninsbirg, or given to Poland as reparations for Soviet occupation.

Taiwan should be allowed to declare its independence.

For Germany to assert influence in Ukraine was an attempt to expand empire in 2014. It failed about that time and they are in a back seat since when.

“I have no idea what you Russian patriots mean when you say neocon. It’s like a non sense word you think makes you sound coherent.”

Figured you didn’t know the recent history in Ukraine.
Try reading up on it, if you can find it before the Neocons and the Western media re-wrote it.

More gibberish. Just make it official and move to Russia if you don’t live there already. It’s where you belong.

KGB propaganda has it backwards. Here is the actual < ahref="https://twitter.com/MatasMaldeikis/status/1534831970043273218"> statement:
If Russia revokes her 1991 recognition of Lithuania's independence, Lithuania will revoke the 1634 Treaty of Polyanovka and demand that Putin submits to the authority of Władysław IV and returns all occupied territories to the Grand Duchy. Smolensk is Lithuania!

Stop being a communist stooge and double check all KGB claims

Taiwan should be allowed to declare its independence.

I'd rather they continue their claim to the mainland and Hong Kong, too. (The Brit treaty was NOT with the Commies) You know, one China and all.

Unfortunately, I don't know how to back up such declarations with actions as long as we funnel money into the CCP. Somehow we managed to get by before we let the Red Chicoms into the WTO. Malaysia, Vietnam, Indonesia, Mexico and India would be better partners for our cheap stuff. S. Korea, Japan, Germany and Taiwan for our good stuff that we aren't presently making.

Life’s easy when one doesn’t bother to study recent history. No?

So there are Nazi’s in Lithuania?
That is the Russian buzzword, right?
Who knew that 77 years after Adolf took a lead sleeping pill there would be Nazi’s all over Europe?

You’re so upset I proved your article is fraudulent (by omitting key context), that you make the wild accusation I’m a communist.

Have some integrity man.

You also lied about the article i posted.
It correctly characterized the Lithuanian politician’s remarks in full.

In all honesty, I have no idea how one can claim that Taiwan needs to be separated from China but Donetsk should stay in Ukraine, given that the situations are identical, except there are more Chinese loyalists in Taiwan than whose who like Kiev in East Ukraine.

Hopefully they understand that most of NATOs military was sent to Ukraine and is now destroyed, or in Russia or other countries.

You guys see the Dreizin Report from the other day?

He says that Slovakia and Bulgaria are sending their air force planes to the Ukies, and these are getting destroyed.

This renders those countries without much of an air force...  ROFL face

"Are we not all Russians?"

No, we aren't. Russia has never know Democracy and have only experience in Autocracies, brutality, and internal and occasionally external terror.

Any fool who allows himself to believe that "they're just like us" has got their head up their wazoo.

I served with Russians back when they called themselves Soviets and they were not ashamed at all of their large and small brutalities - they even seemed proud of them. KAL 007? "they were spying". Maj Nicholson being allowed to bleed to death while preventing us to reach him and try to save his life? "It's just the Tartar in us" said with a grin.

What they do to themselves, they deserve.

What they do to others has to be opposed, even if it means all-out war.

LOL. And yea, sources are telling me that several Ukrainian aircraft are being downed daily...not much of a chance against S-400s.
