A cleansed, but similar WSJ article today (Putin Blames U.S. and Europe for Ukraine Tensions)
Funny, given a choice, I prefer reading news from Tass, then from WSJ... and at the bottom of the list: any AP/Reuters-based Enemedia news source.
Also here:
Russia: US Is Building Up Forward Military Presence Near Borders - The Russian Defense Ministry says that the US is building up a forward military presence with 8,000 troops near Russia's border in Eastern Europe.
I guess WWIII is next in the plan.
Didn’t the President used to talk about deploying troops before it was done or maybe ask Congress ?
Really? You have over 100,000 troops massed on Ukraine’s border and you whine about 8,000 American troops? A friend of mine is a college professor in Kiev. The other night he was helping to clean machine guns. He said the mood is “Not optimistic, but realistic.”
Is the Pentagon mad?
The JCOS felt he could commit treason with trump, but now feels ready to start WWIII over the Ukraine?
Russia builds up their forces and contends it’s being done on Russian territory and therefore it’s none of NATO’s business.
NATO responds in kind and Russia whines about it.
Why are we on the front lines of this?
Yawn. Obama sent units from the 173rd Airborne Brigade to Ukraine in 2015. WW3 didn’t start then and it won’t start now.
I lived from 1979-1982 in West Germany, and as a kid I devoured the Warsaw Pact agitprop. Even listened to their propaganda broadcasts on my shortwave radio. Albanian Radio was seriously off the rails. This is the same crap I heard from Tass and Pravda back then. There is nothing new under the sun...
So he pulls US troops out of the shite hole Afghanistan and we deploy in Ukraine? Where is Congress on this? Is this guy nuts?
According to RT, it is false flag time...
I don’t know if we are allowed to link to them, so here is the title of the article:
“American mercenaries preparing ‘chemical weapon’ incident in east Ukraine”
We want to scare the world with our fag woke army.
Even Hitler was afraid of a two-front war; Biden is trying to start a war simultaneously with Russia and China, and this is on top of the war he is already fighting against the US!
Go Brandon, Go!
Couldn’t we out source this conflict to China?
whatever it takes to wake those asleep up. WW-III is the proverbial bucket of ice water. On steroids.
If you go back to the first Gulf War and look at what Western forces did to the Russian trained and equipped Iraqi Army you’d understand that 8,000 Americans against 100,000 Russians isn’t a fair match.
The Russians are dreadfully outclassed and even with the US forces going woke the US military can still go through the Russians like poop through a goose.
And the Russians know it.
That was back in the day... you know, when we had a Republic.
“Why are we on the front lines of this?”
Because the Russian leadership wants to rebuild the Soviet Empire and it’s better to stop them in Ukraine than to stop them in Berlin.
Typical Democrat getting us in to a war.
That was before the US military went woke and started with the Covid vaccine mandates.
The mandates will be a strong deterrent to young people who were thinking about joining the military.
Our military is declining—fast.
