*How about making ONE soldier shoot his commander? Might find volunteers?*

Kinda reminds me of the scene in the Brad Pitt flick “Fury”. War is nasty business.

And Taiwan is more important to the United States than is Ukraine.

Even the guy reporting this is astounded that the Russians never switched off the power. Any theories on why not?

I’ve been thinking quite a bit about this and really do think you should make Zelensky an honorary godfather of your children and and grandchildren. It would be your own personal Perestroika.

If China invades Taiwan it will be really interesting to see if the Western propaganda machine cranks into full gear—or not.

I honestly don’t know which way that would fall....

And Japan has said it would come to Taiwan’s aid.

Not to mention that the Indians at China’s back are easily capable of shutting off China’s ME oil spigot.

You need to consult with the FR mind-reading team.

They have been practicing with their remote viewing, dowsing, witches brew and Ouija boards—and they can tell you exactly what Putin is thinking every second.

Zelensky needs to go join the regime in North Korea or Iran. He'd fit perfectly.

Now that the Russians have surrounded the outside of Kiev, they can keep their heroic offensive moving toward the inside of Kiev from all directions.

I think we have already learned from the current situation that talk is easy, but often the actions contradict the talk.

The best example is Germany right now—the talk is anti-Russia, meanwhile they have no choice but to buy Russian energy.

A Chinese invasion of Taiwan would force everybody to show their hands, and we would find out in a hurry who had real cards and who was just bluffing.

Get your facts straight.
For supporting the exact same position s President Trump,
The people I responded to said I’m a paid operative of globalist forces. So any idiot accusing me if that can go straight to hell.

Next, FR has been bombarded by idiots whose comments are straight up anti American and pro Putin.

The posts by these kooks make me sick and I’ll call them out every single time.

As for I’ll get mine, screw off.

Not every news story that we don’t agree with is part of some grand conspiracy

So I take that as a yes. Do you want announcement cards for the relatives with prepaid postage or will you hand deliver?

So if Ukraine can stop them...why can’t the combined armies of Poland, France, Germany, Italy, and the UK? Why do we need 100,000 American troops in Europe? Put them on the southern border

I’ve seen this guys reporting before: he’s been very cautious about claims from both sides, so he’s reporting it there’s a good chance it’s true. I also saw a map of Russian and Ukrainian positions around Kiev earlier today that showed the Ukrainians advancing from the west and east north of Bucha. If they linked up, any Russians inside are trapped.
