Russian lawmaker Sergei Mironov suggested in a Wednesday post to X, the platform previously known as Twitter, that the oversight and power of the U.S. is weakening, citing the recent attempts by Venezuela to seize lands controlled by its neighbor, Guyana. The politician suggested that other nations should consider retaking old territories that are now part of the U.S., citing the examples of Mexico and Texas, and Russia and Alaska.

LOL! Just like a limp-wristed Frenchie would say it!

Just over 47 days in World War 1, the US lost 26,000 men:

We paid your price over 12X over, in just that one battle.

France is a piece of poop, as are its protectors.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

By insulting France, America’s number one ally in its entire history, simply makes you sound like a foolish ignorant.
No true American would say the blatant insult-stupidity you just uttered. Insulting your allies requires low intellect.

You are talking about America’s involvement in World War One. Every nation on earth except for Sweden and Switzerland were at war for God’s sake!! America lost many soldiers by participating in WW1 evidently.
But you make it sound like America lost 26.000 men only to help France alone??? What’s the matter with you? American engaged its forced alongside French, English, Australian, and many other allied forces etc... in order to stop Germany taking over the world. You didn’t know that??

Now it’s time I wake you up :

The French army suffered around 6 million casualties, including 1.4 million dead and 4.2 million wounded, roughly 71% of those who fought during WWII ! You didn’t know that??

THAT was France’s contribution trying to stop Germany from taking over the world.

Your ignorance is spectacular and tragic.

“Let’s see the US invading Iraq, Afghanistan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Syria, Somalia, Bosnia, Panama, Grenada, Viet Nam, Laos, Cambodia. We killed literally hundreds of thousands of Iraqis.”

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

You must be joking right? Is THIS easily debunked argument of yours your final argument in the matter?

Ok here is comes:

The USA temporarily invading Iraq was originally initiated by Iraq’s illegal annexation of Kuwait. Remember? That’s how America ended up in Iraq in the first place.
But! America never replaced Iraq’s flag by the American flag.
America never ANNEXED Iraq.
Afghanistan was temporarily invaded by America because the Talibans refused to hand over Bin Laden who killed 3000 Americans. Remember?

Same ethical reasons for temporary (and often relatively short lived) US occupations can be said about Afghanistan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Syria, Somalia, Bosnia, Panama, Grenada, Viet Nam, Laos, Cambodia.

Take Vietnam for example. America had signed a deal to help the conservative and anti-communist Government there to defend itself against a communist takeover paid for and sponsored by... wait for it... RUSSIA! (check your old history books).

America NEVER ANNEXED ANY of these nations! America came there to help the pro-American anti-communist governments there under attack by revolutionary pro-Soviet, procommunist insurrectionists.

Never, has America even attempted to annex any of those nations. They all kept their flags all along.

Yous see the difference with Russia’s behavior now?
Russia is TAKING countries, annexing them by Russian law, bans their national flags, bans their national anthems, bans their school systems by replacing them with School programs dictated from Big Government / Deep State Moscow!

What about the child trafficking organized by Moscow!??

Deportation of Ukrainian children to Russia is war crime - UN

It’s a Frenchie that is wanting US lives and money spent on Ukraine.

So, yes, I expect all costs for Mr. Frenchie’s desires to be born by France.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

What on earth are you talking about?
US lives spent on Ukraine? What? Who suggested that?
You do know that the policy for USA and EU is clear on this:
NO BOOTS ON THE GROUND IN UKRAINE.
So how could America or the EU lose lives in Ukraine if they arent even there?

When it comes to USA/EU financial help the Ukraine... The EU is giving more total financial help than America does.

We are protecting the West against Russian NeoSoviet Imperialism - where the individual citizen is considered as nothing more than canon-fodder.

You can understand the pissing match when you know that the people attacking me are Zeepers.

The truth is not something they engage in. Many are foreigners that want our money to keep that pathetic war going in Ukraine.

They actually are on board with Joe Biden because they defend him on this issue.

Just in the past week, I’ve seen two foreigners on this board gloating that the U.S. will end up giving more of our billions to the mincing little grifter. They were both quite smug about it.

Those people are definitely Biden-aligned.

And some people here at FR seem to actually believe what lying, dictator Putin has to say. Of course, most are probably crypto Communists, or Russian trolls, but some are just truly ignornt, gulible Americans who apparently have not been paying enough attention to this monster’s plans to invade as far West as we will all allow him.

Interesting fact regarding N. Vietnam and Russia. Vietnam had a history of defending itself from a takeover by various Chinese governments. THus, although N. Vietnam, China, and Russia all claimed to be Communist at the time of the our fight in Vietnam, the N. Vietnamese preferred to get most of their logistical and military help from far away Communist Russia. The same thinking explains why Communist Albania sought aid and comfort from far away China rather than Russia.

We even withdrew from the Phillipines which we originally had claim to from winning the war with Spain in the late 1800s.

Not only is Putin trying to annex all or parts of countries like Chechnia, Georgia, and Ukraine, it even holds fake elections to show support for the Russian takeover in eastern Ukraine by sending armed soldiers to voter’s homes and forcing the voters to mark a single sheet of paper and drop it into a transparent box where it is easy to see exactly what was just marked.

Putin definitely wants to revive the old Soviet Union, he even put the old red flag on the sole ancient tank that was in the big celebration parade Putin held last year in Moscow.

With the Ukraine Project in complete collapse, how does it feel to have been completely wrong about Zelensky?
