Are you this unobservant as to what is going on?
It wasn’t Ukraine wanting Russia’s resources. It was the globalists that wanted Russia’s estimated $400 trillion in mineral wealth. Zelensky purposefully provoked Russia’s wrath by oppressing the Russian ethnics of his country.
Putin had a choice, he could abandon Russian ethnics in Ukraine to being eliminated by Zelensky or go to war to protect them. There was as much choice on Russia’s part as there would be if as America would have had if Mexico decided to kill a million Americans who happened to be visiting Mexico.
It was an engineered war designed to cause Russia to respond and for us to counter respond in order to transfer a trillion dollars for money laundering purposes.
Russia is not the Soviet Union. At best, Putin wanted to extend power over the areas where his people live anyway.
It’s amazing that many Freepers will claim to not believe the media and what they are told, until they do.
I’d suggest you get your head out of your ***. They may not call themselves the Soviet Union, but the guy running the damned country is the former head of the most notorious mob of crooks, thieves and murderers since the Nazi Gestapo. Many of his mob of thugs are former KGB or sons of KGB. Communism is not dead in the Soviet Union. It collapsed under its own weight, it was not defeated. Puketin is attempting to reform all the old lost countries back into the SU. He wants Ukraine and the ports on the sea lanes it provides. Ukraine had SU ships and nukes before. It gave up the nukes when promised that it would be protected from the SU. How’d that work out? Puketin is looking towards Poland and the three Baltic nations. Finland is strengthening its borders because they take that possible threat seriously. Puketin is bedroom cozy with Big X in Red China. Oh, wait, you probably don’t call it RED China any longer. WRONG pal. IT is still RED. It has been since good ole Chairman Mao. It never went away like the SU did. It simply became pals with the USA to sell us all their cheap crap at Wal Mart. You call the SU whatever the hell you want to call it. I have called it the Soviet Union since I was in Jr. High School and clearly understood the threat they were to us. You go on and call it what you want to junior. I will call it what the hell it is, a COMMUNIST run government of liars, thieves, crooks, murderers, criminal gangs of thugs communist run by a thug as the old SU was!!
Oh, and I just reread your post again. Danged if you don’t sound like you like the bum. What are you, a Soviet apologist?
