Tell your Putin to leave Ukraine and stop threatening nuclear war.
Putin’s reserves are having their ATM cards and phones cut off already and are being told to bring their own provisions.
None of our business, but keep sending $billions in weaponry to Ukraine. What could go wrong
I know. Causing you fear is Putin’s last weapon
Cmon oligarchs and generals, time to take out the trash.
Demonic possession?
You sound like you’d be right at home in the 16th century, when bigots burned someone who dared entertain a religious belief different from theirs. Yup, those bigots prayed, too; both before and after they burned their victims.
We’ll never learn, apparently.
You confuse expense with investment
The money you so strongly want to conserve is an investment that will pay dividends for years and years to come
“What’s so crazy about Putin’s action? He feels NATO is stupid enough to try to reclaim LPR and DPR.”
How can NATO reclaim something that was never NATO?
“They can’t help themselves... their emotional attachment to Putin is what drives them. Must be the shirtless pics.”
Perhaps they identified with Putin when they saw the photo of him kissing that kid’s chest. That was pretty creepy.
Will the world finally see a nuclear war in full 4k? With Putin, Biden, Schultz and Zelensky it’s seems very possible. Since A rat is in power though the doomsday clock is moving backwards.
Kruschev used to force raw Russian recruits to charge Nazi machine gun batteries at the point of a gun during WWII. Sadly, the same thing is about to happen to raw recruits against a battle-hardened Ukrainian army.
Most Americans could not care less about the Ukraine, why we are risking ww3 over the most corrupt nation in Europe mind blowing.
The fear always was that an incompetent bully surrounded by arrogant second raters would lead to disaster. But they put Biden into the office anyway. Now his idiot advisors are painting us into a corner.
There have been countless paintings, drawings, mosaics, tapestries, frescoes, etc. throughout history that depict similar themes. They were meant to scare and subdue hoi polloi.
I studied the heresy and witchcraft persecutions of the 14th through 17th centuries in Europe. What some people can come up with to justify their sadism and lust for power and greed and revenge!
In before the russophiles declare this as winning, that the west deserves to be nuked, and that everything is fine.
Another whack at the tar baby.
What are you dribbling on about?
The only explicit threats of nuclear escalation over Ukraine have come exclusively from a parade of posturing Russian cockwombles on Russian TV reading from autocues and following Kremlin messaging instructions.
They were joined this week by Medvedev, and an asshat on BBC Radio 4 this morning, and most recently by Vladimir Putin.
Is there anyone in a senior position in Putin’s circle jerk who HASN’T threatened nuclear escalation?
I’m still waiting for even one example of anybody in the West making explicit PREEMPTIVE FIRST STRIKE threats like the Russians have repeatedly.
Apart from Trump when he told Putin (probably with tongue in cheek) to stop gobbing off with the N word, all we’ve ACTUALLY said is we’d retaliate if Russia attacked first.
Of course Russia feels threatened by that. It’s got a hard-on for first strike. Numerous Duma knuckleheads have gone as far as complaining that Putin hasn’t done it yet.
In the last week, one talking head mused that they should’ve nuked London during the funeral while it was packed with heads of state.
Most of those dignitaries had absolutely no connection to Ukraine and some are staying utterly neutral on the subject - and Russia allowed a national broadcaster to mourn the missed opportunity.
We are dealing with completely unhinged, delusional nutcases.
