"Only brain dead snowflakes who support Putin would still believe MacDaddy",

And. . . another personal insult from a rabid Youkazoid. Well, this one can be made to cut either way: "Only brain dead snowflakes who support Zelenskyyyy™ would still believe Denys Dildosevich"

BTW, why are you sending your crap to me? I could not care less about what MacGregor - or Davydov - have to say about the war. Both are semi-entertaining clowns in their own ways though Davydov is a bit darker because he is unquestionably a draft-dodging coward who has the balls to cheerlead for continuing the mindless slaughter of his countrymen while he hides out, partying in Switzerland.

That ship sailed decades ago.

Yes, it did.

This is where dodgy historical false comparisons and American / Russian exceptionalism falls down. Putinists, like American exceptionalists, think they’ve got a God given right to choose the security arrangements of their neighbors. No they don’t have that right.

Monroe doctrine. You said it.

USA (Batista) and USSR (Castro) interfering in Cuba was no more justifiable than Russia and NATO interfering in Ukraine. If you didn’t want Soviet nukes on Cuban soil, perhaps instead of backing the unelected Batista’s coup the USA should’ve backed the elected Socarrás.

If Cuba WANTED to host Soviet stuff on its soil,

Thanks, EUROTRASH, for the new entry in your series of mini-novels which nobody reads.

Your country is a useless, failing shell. Worry about that... or maybe just GTF off the forum.

So why did Russia sign the 2015 Minsk Accords along with Ukraine, Germany, and France? Ukraine failed to implement it, which would have given the Donbas more autonomy, but it would still be part of Ukraine.

Merkle has said now that Germany only signed it to buy time for Ukraine to arm itself. The situation today in Ukraine can be traced back to the 2014 coup engineered by the US and EU, which took down the duly elected government of Ukraine and spawned the separatist movement in the Donbas and the unopposed Russian annexation of Crimea.

I provided you with the detailed history of how we got here. This war could have been avoided using diplomacy. Instead, the same Obama-Biden national security team that got us into this mess in 2014 is back in charge. They want revenge for the humiliation they suffered in 2014. We have a compromised President who took bribes from Ukraine.

A diplomatic solution was reached last April, but Boris Johnson flew to Ukraine to kill it. Doubling down on stupid won’t work. Ukraine shares a 1,500 mile border with Russia. The only way to end this proxy conflict is thru negotiations.

Macgregor, the first week of the war said, this will in the end result in Russia holding Eastern Ukraine and Crimea.

I think he’s going to be right.

I don’t think he expected our country to be this stupid, by providing this much aid to Ukraine.

Secondly, he knows that our side is happy that Ukraine is losing med 10 to 1 over Russia.

I believe this too.

In short, I don’t see where Macgregor has been wrong. Do you?

They joined NATO to make the US the guarantor of their sovereignty. It is an insurance policy where the US pays the premium up to and including nuclear war. A good deal for them, but not so much for us. Uncle Sap pays the bill.

Personal question: Did you give up your US citizenship when you became a Polish citizen or do you hold dual citizenship?

Mother Russia is withering away.

To live, mother Russia must give up the ill founded war

The Russians are cleaning out all the bio labs as they go. They are breaking up all the sex trafficking also. In effect taking down the biggest deep state honey pot.

You live in a fictional world. In reality, you are supporting Mohammedans occupying the Donbas, Moscow pedophile rings, the trafficking of Ukrainian children by Russians, and all manner of evil.

Are there ANY Moscow talking points that you do not push?

Interesting how late-night postings (based on US time) seem to bring out a lot more Neocon supporters than ones during the day...

Yes, their money supply is drying up. Their ability act out is diminishing rapidly.

Russia will never surrender. No way, no how. This war is futile for the Ukrainians.

NATO got involved in the civil war in Serbia and created another country, Kosovo. NATO got involved in Libya and wound up with another failed state.

The US taxpayer, past, present, and future, has been providing the security umbrella for Europe since the end WWII. It has enabled Europe to create generous welfare states and keep defense costs to a minimum. In fact, militarily, Europe is declining. Yet, economically and demographically, Europe is almost equivalent to the US. It is time Europe provide for its own defense.

The US is the world’s biggest debtor nation. We can no longer afford to be Uncle Sap borrowing more and more money to defend Europe.

Since the Russians have thoroughly trashed several Ukrainian towns there is no doubt that all economic activity is quite gone there. Nearly the whole population fled, under bombardment, from places like Mariupol, Severodonetsk, Lysychansk, Bakhmut.

I suppose that’s one way to clean out sin, by erasing the town, while killing a fair number of the inhabitants.

Also the places Russia has taken, and still holds, in Zaporozhia and the remainder of Kherson, that are still intact, certainly aren’t any evil big cities. These are rural places. Villages and small market towns mainly. The biggest one is Melitopol (prewar pop 150K, probably much less now).

That all certainly isn’t a “honey pot”. Analysis is good. Rhetoric is bad. God loves logic, ask St. Thomas Aquinas.
