The Corrupt Ukraine Scam

This isn't a binary but all you're seeing are left and right.

Why is that? This is infinitely more grey than black and white.

Did you let bullies take other kids lunch money when you were in school, or did you step up to help protect them? Teach them to defend themselves?

Or did you cheer on the bully? Ignore their bullshit? Or did you help them bully others?
It's obvious a lot of folks around here cheered on the bully

this proxy war is night and day obvious. the US orchestrated it on purpose to cause this war. this is not Russia's war against Ukraine. it's Russia's war against warmongering US neo-con's who want to invoke regime change yet again on the biggest scale yet.and based on yet another US betrayal by reneging on the Minsk agreement at the breakup of the USSR.



do you support that?
Wasn't that the time when Trump had something the wrong and bent over and grabbed his ankles right in front of Putin? Originally Posted by Cody69

Yep, and then they went and had a BCD meeting where the interpreters were forbidden from taking notes. That was when Putin got his happy ending. Originally Posted by tommy156

Because Putin is the guy invading Ukraine? And this post was referring to recent US/Russia relations? It's completely on topic.

Absolutely nothing Salty. Hopefully it gets addressed.

Meanwhile, on the topic of this thread, the NY Times reported: "Senior U.S. officials" have "privately expressed frustration" that Ukraine's military, "fearing increased casualties", is not "pressing harder to breach the Russian defenses."

Must be so frustrating to the warmongers and leftists when the Ukrainians won't keep just sacrificing their soldiers for our proxy war.

The Ukranians should have never listened to the US and UK and backed out of the peace agreement they had in place

No, this is Russia's war against Ukraine since it couldn't meet it's goal of securing it as a pro-Russia confederacy.

I don't think you understand the Minsk agreements. Weren't signed during the breakup of the USSR. The first was signed in 2014. None of the active participants in the conflict were in active compliance with either Minsk agreement.

If you want to go back to the Lisbon Protocol or the Massandra accords, ok. The history of Russia's aggressions against Ukraine don't begin with little green men invading Crimea or the Donbas. We could discuss Russia's violations of its agreements going back to Budapest and related agreements in 1994.

Russia killed any hope of reviving the Minsk agreements with its illegal annexation efforts and knew that when it pursued them.

Except it did meet that goal, until Obama and company got involved and engineered the overthrow of a legitimate government.

No, it didn't. It was hoping to and close. But that's also not a valid pretext for their invasion or taking Crimea in 2014 and those actions are not recognized as legal, either.

Ukrainians are outraged by the fact that the daughter of the Minister of Defense of Ukraine bought a house near Cannes for 7 million euros.

The New York Times reported on October 20, 2014, that the Corrupt Ukrainian government dropped cluster bombs on Russian-speaking Ukrainians in Donetsk.

How many Americans know that Corrupt Ukraine started dropping cluster bombs on civilians in Eastern Ukraine in 2014?

I did. Love that you neglect to mention that Russia used them aplenty in 2014 and so did the separatists. They were lobbing Soviet made cluster munitions at each other with dud rates well over 10%

Russia, Ukraine and the U.S. have never been part of the treaty banning their use. As of a few months ago we had over 3 million DPICM rounds in our stockpiles.

The countries that banned them barely accounted 20% of the total stockpiles among those who didn't, like the US, the Russians, Ukraine, Greece, Turkey, China, India... ya know... the countries that had large amounts of artillery

It was on TV remember?
We also watched Putin invade Crimea in 2014.
Or are you trying to a say that Biden FDR'ed Russia!
And you people question his intelligence on here all the time!
I donnno that seems pretty bright to me!
If that indeed was his goal.
Get Ukraine to fight our proxy war, no American bloodshed and for the cost of some weapons bankrupt the Russian treasury and break it's economy!
Not too shabby!

Shoulda done the same thing in Vietnam and saved 58,000 American lives!
Biden seems pretty smart for a dummy, don't ya think!
If of course that was Bidens goal, but we all know different and you do too!

Putin is a monster always has been!. Why don't you all just move to Russia you would all be the very best of patriots!
