LOL why do I even bother dealing with you?
I must do something to control my curiosity :!:


That's a typical post from you. Bully boy shite. Attempted shouting down. Do get a life.

I don't know what you mean by "gossiping habit". What I post is my view of the way it is/was. But you don't like views that are apposite to yours of course

RH I will deal with later. Suffice it to say he's somebody who has tried (but failed) on a number of occasions to make my life difficult off-forum, from the safety of his keyboard of course. A despicable and cowardly way to behave. My view is Las Vegas - what's said on forums should stay on forums. And that's a philosophy - unlike him - I have always stuck to.

RW posts a lot of interesting stuff, including a pro-Ukrainian POV. Do you watch it? Really? He doesn't tend to defend his position though. Moreover, he's never dished out any personal aggro nor received any. So, he's tolerated by bully boys like you.

Yes. On the same day Kicks told me he was too busy to reply to a (rare) link I posted. Basically a fairly short and innocuous BBC timeline of the Ukrainian invasion (it was all for gullible idiots apparently), he replied to a 300+ word post of yours with a 2.5 hour video attached saying he'd watched it "in its entirety" and found it "very informative". That's the sort of playing field "discussion" this thread involves. Up asses?

How do I "know everything" WTF are you prattling on about? :?

If you feel your time is being wasted "bothering" with me then don't. Go back to posting mutually pro "Special Military Operation" supporting stuff, congratulating each other, accompanied by lots of back patting. Frankly though, as I have said on numerous occasions, WTF do you want? Because, I really couldn't give a shit about your pompous bullying and can give as good as.

It's entirely appropriate to question the status and veracity of people who are being proposed as "fonts of truth" in matters such as we "discuss" (that's a joke). Actually, you've put forward some - which upon analysis in the past- have turned out to be real dorks. You've referred to that as "vandalism". As always, you attempt to draw any discussion into limits which you wish to define. Then, when somebody "buys" it you - like a trap door spider - drag them down into the long grass. Where they are "shot down". :roll: Ut semper - no thanks.

Macgregor was a Colonel in the US army who retired over 20 years ago. Given his anti-US Ukraine policy, other than bias confirmation faith, what on earth makes you believe his opinions are "based upon intelligence we don't have access to"? As an indication of your bias, when somebody like General Petraeus offers an entirely different view of the Ukrainian war you of course dismiss it out of hand.

So, no, I don't "accept his analysis"

What does "you are either with us or against us" mean? :?

If you mean Vladimir Putin sending half a million men to obliterate a neighbouring country then I have to put a marker in with the "against" POV.


Originally I had hoped we could make a fresh start and have a civilised relationship on this forum. I made efforts to facilitate that. A waste of time though. You are the epitome of a leopard which can't change its spots. Thumping the lectern from your pulpit to an admiring audience. The ole domination and "shooting them down" attitude. Doesn't and never has worked with me.

I find that a great pity to be honest. I really enjoyed those interesting lunches. :wink:

Well, believe it or not, I actually watch them. I appreciate your view is that Cypriots come first. Not an uncommon attitude among the long departed diaspora. Even the likes of Lordo are of blood. :wink:

But they don’t because they cannot accept that there are views that carry a lot more weight and can be, and are, discussed in a common sense scenario! Something they cannot do so they resort in attacking the source of the information they dislike.

Very interesting and worrisome video much beyond the mental level of the resident Uranians...
Anyway at the 25:52 timeline he said "what if the Russians decide to embargo Western Europe, how would they get food?" I guess by "food" he is mainly referring to grain.
What's your view on that? Imo the Russians should go ahead and do it :idea:

...who will they starve, Pyr?

If Putin is a better man, we would find this food distributed with equity where it is needed.

...look at the games played, with food, in Syria.

Quite a long time ago this conflict stopped being about the survival of Ukraine, and started to be about the survival of Vladimir Putin.
