Ukrainians are giving the Russians pay back for the 100,000 they killed in Korea and Nam. Sorry you haven’t joined them, Pootie Tootie Troll.

“Ukrainians are giving the Russians pay back for the 100,000 they killed in Korea and Nam. Sorry you haven’t joined them, Pootie Tootie Troll.”

What has that got to do with the fact the Soviets were allies in WW II, and were allowed to commit atrocities in Germany, and even still have a monument to them there? What did you think would happen in Korea and IndoChina after removing the Japanese as the imperialists in Southeast Asia? And stop the pootie-put. It’s so faggoty and I’m not Russian.

Your statement confuses me, so in order for Russia not to be a puppet of the west they needed to invade and conquer Ukraine?

Seems to me Russia was pretty strong and more free(we can argue that point later) before invading, to what become more strong and free.

The Russian military is now far weaker and exposed for its shortcomings. Russian economy is far weaker. Before the invasion they were trading with the west had huge petrodollars coming in and if it were not for the inherent corruption that seems to be build in to the societal norm of Russian society would have been even greater

No this is about one thing Putins ego and dreams of grandeur and he will achieve this dream no matter how many have to die and how much Russia suffers
Reminds me of a little man with a little mustache in a certain German bunker

Russia has never been an aggressor nation on Europe although it has in its own territories, just as Washington D.C. was during the Civil War and to this day with its Federal mandates and arm twisting of states that don’t adhere to its authoritarian policies. And it’s going to get worse as the decades go on, and just as balkanized as other parts of Eastern Europe, but it’s not going to happen overnight.

LOL, good one, "Russia has never been an aggressor nation on Europe". Tell that to eastern Europe, before it was the Soviet Union(composed of Captive Nations), its was the Russian EMPIRE.

You need to learn reading comprehension. Europe isn’t Eastern Europe. I should have been more specific, so you could understand. Do you think the Federal government are just going to let the red states leave if they want to? They get extremely pissed off when they send migrants sent to their sanctuary cities. Give it another one thousand years, and there will be the same conflicts here as in Eastern Europe.

Yep, given what the West has stated about their INTENTIONS regarding Russia. Either Russia stops their continued advance towards that goal, or Russia becomes subservient to the West. Death by a Thousand Cuts, and it was going on long before the Ukraine War.

Really no different than the Cold War, when each side was trying to do it to the other side. Otherwise why would we have cared about Africa, or Central America, or South America.

“Curious how many ethnic Estonians Latvians Lithuanians, Poles, Ukrainians and others under the control of the Soviet Union were cleansed or relocated”
No clue if any were, nor do I care how many people the Romans relocated, as they were both different societies.

“I would say that many if not most of the 8 million you are referring to arrived after the Soviet Union did their thing.”
The history there is well documented.

“How many Russians have migrated to Crimea since 2014 and are they part of your 8 million?”
Likely few, if any. It was fully populated with Russians prior to its liberation and since then, its been subject to constant attack.

“I just don’t know why people get so worked up…”

Historical reasons. Policies of the Tsars, Stalin…. They hate the Russians far more than they dislike the Nazis, with whom they worked to bring German Jews to Palestine prior to WWII.

“The enemy of my enemy is my friend,” as they say.

You are correct. That was the narrative coming from the western press.

I get the reasons for the local hatred. It’s more a question of why we have people with that same blood feud at high-levels in our government, making decisions that can easily lead to WW3.

In the past, they would have spent their careers as translators, and nothing more.

I sometimes ask the warwhores on here how many subversives has China got in through our southern border.

They basically OWN both ends of the Panama Canal. How easy would it be...

911 it took just around 20 to put this country on our knees. How does anyone think 2 or 3 million would do. OK...so maybe not 2 or 3 million, how about a few thousand?

1. The Norks go into South Korea. We have to send more troops there to defend that place.
2. The reds get the infiltrators to activate here in this country.
3. The mid east flares up again endangering what is left of the oil supplies w have from that region.
4. China makes its move on us by first shutting down the Canal.
5. China takes the whole of the south china sea and Pacific rim and invades Taiwan. Remember this..the population of that Island are split about 50/50 on rejoining Red China
6. Finally, invade through our southern border. A few divisions is all it takes since they already have support through the democrat party here in the USA.

“1...6”

Sorry, idiot, cannot happen here. Why, because it hasn’t yet happened, why else?

Is in reality a bunch of unrepentant filthy slime.

Agree it’s a lot of what we have in D.C. now.
