Hating on NATO?!?!? What are you smoking? This is about his post #17. Lots of others have questioned it, too, and for the same reason.

You seem to be cut from the same cloth, though, judging by your post #95. Worship NATO all you please. Imagine to yourself that your nasty little god delights in smiting people whose leaders do things you don’t like. We still have freedom of religion here. So long as you don’t claim to be a Christian — hateful childish stuff like that gives us Christians a bad name.

Maybe my #117 hit you a little too close to home? Maybe you have elevated NATO to religious significance and your worship is also misplaced if you think God Himself would smite helpless little babies and little old ladies in Turkey because of NATO. Nah, it’s easier to go off on me and claim I was “hating on” NATO just because I don’t think one should worship it to the point one thinks think God should smite innocents over it. Funny how haters always think it’s others who are doing the hating.

Who shrink I wrapped your soul? What a nasty thing to say. Freezing babies trapped under rubble and you write this?

I think the toll population-density wise will be even worse in Syria than in Turkey.

Oh no. Your post was like a punch to my heart, but thanks for letting us know. Prayers up.

29,000. Unimaginable suffering. Devastating news. I am lost for words.

Your post 117 is clearly hating on Ukraine and NATO. But at least you know a lot about Russia, isn’t that what you said there?

I know. That’s why I have tears in my eyes. Still praying for them.

Go sober up. There is no hating on NATO in my post. Any sane and sober person of good will can see that.

Good on the Poles as the Queries would say. At least some good news! I read the Israelis are all so sending teams. All I can do is keep praying — and I include the rescue teams in my prayers.

I’m not going to miss any of the victims. These are the same people that keep Erdogan in power.

According to the NYT, Bulgaria, Croatia, the Czech Republic, France, the Netherlands, Poland, Romania, Greece and India are sending teams to Turkey to help. Meanwhile, we in the US are “assessing” our “response options”.
