It is widely accepted that the Ukrainian crisis erupted into a military conflict on February 24, 2022, with the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Contrary to conventional wisdom, the seeds of the hostilities were planted about thirty years earlier by President Clinton and, later, by George W. Bush, both of whom recklessly pushed for NATO’s eastward expansion.

I understand what really happened. Russia seized Crimea because they wanted it, and then launched the fighting in the Donbas to seize those areas as well.

Girkin himself has admitted the votes were staged and coerced.

But you can keep repeating those Russian talking points all day.

Golly, an airstrip in Grenada must have been a giant threat, as you claimed.

How would that make sense to anybody? The Russians could and did fly out of Cuba whenever they wanted to.

And there are plenty of other airstrips in the Caribbean.

LOL. Such classical Kremlin Bolshevist gaslighting. How sad to see some American former conservatives so broken and defeated they are now easily duped by such childish nonsense.

Ever talk to any Crimeans? I do. They are relieved to be out from under the corruption, and now destruction, of the Kiev regime. Unconstitutional Revolutions that disenfranchise voters have consequences

I'm not interested in the first three, but you can sign me up for the last one. Yes, in case you haven't checked the news, Putin invaded Ukraine. (And that was soon after he said that he wasn't going to. So, just in case he says that he isn't going to invade another country, beware!)

Being an appeasenik is supporting Russia. It is Putin’s war.

Made efforts for 7 years to resolve Russias concerned through international approaches.

They doubled down and pushed.
The globohomopedo west wants war.

Here we are.

PS - I score +100!

Some of ‘em have already racked up lots of points today! 😄

I found another fun game. Answer them with the same convoluted zeeper logic they use and sling unfounded insults/accusations at them in classic zeeper style. It’s hilarious and it further confuses them.

Can’t do it too much or our IQ levels might start dropping closer to zeeper numbers, but it’s fun to do in moderation.

Why is the 100 point one so high? Is that the truth you are most in denial about? Is that the one you want people to avoid speaking about because it utterly undermines your line that Russia is a peaceful country that minds its own business?

If so, put me down for 200 (2014 and 2022), please.

This isn’t a game for your participation.

Zeepers are the unwitting players on the field, careening around shouting the same tropes.

The game is for the patriots to observe and score points as they hear the Zeeper tropes.

Oops, my bad. I misunderstood the purpose.

Hey Slobbering Putin Lovers, score this:

RUSSIA INVADED UKRAINE!

Now pat yourselves in the back, ya weasels.

Russia is not an aggressor

As it has been said: "“If you repeat a lie often enough, people will believe it, and you will even come to believe it yourself,”

It is just a game to you but those of us who are freedom-lovers take it seriously. I have family and friends across Ukraine and they are great people.

Anyone who supports Moscow’s invasions of the Republic of Georgia and Ukraine are not conservatives in any sense of the word.

Your side wants Ukraine to fold so then you’ll play a game about what sort of “surrender monkeys” they are. In reality land, they are fighting and humiliating an eleven-time-zone country. I guess limp-wristed Leftists never stood up to the old Soviets now they just appease the Neo-Soviets.

That’s a bunch of B.S. and sulfur-scented lies. You can’t find a single post of mine to support your stinking lies and vile accusations.

I have advocated for a negotiated peace settlement since the beginning of this fiasco. I want the death and destruction to stop, unlike you ghoulish vampires who get off to this carnage. My stance on this has pretty much mirrored that of Donald Trump.

Yours has mirrored Biden’s and Obama’s.

The vile lies that hiss forth from your nasty craw have a horribly noxious stench.

Of course we laugh at you and mock you. You *are* laughable, hissing your ridiculous insults and accusations at people who oppose your buddy Biden giving billions and billions of *our* dollars to a known money-laundering operation, with no auditing. No accountability. Of course you are objects of entertainment to us. You really should see yourselves from rational eyes.

This is why I don’t hang around with Democrats.

Now go away and take your filthy lies and false accusations with you. Do not post to me anymore.
