But I just found there are professional mourners too, some of which are men.

Look.

My post was in response to a couple of your insulting efforts and as an explanation of why it is (IMHO) that no interesting or in fact sensible discourse takes place on this forum. This thread consists mainly of rants (some very interesting psychotic ones in GR's case).

In response you cherry pick a single sentence where I pointed out the potentially devastating consequences of this war to people who are far away and really have no connection. To you and I it just amounts to paying a lot more for a loaf of bread, et al. Those people are going to starve. There was no accusation aimed at anyone particularly, although if you truly believe what's going on at present is the fault of anybody other than Vladimir Putin there's really no point in discussing it with you. Ipso facto.

So, get those Russian colours on and go back up in the stands with your rattle and scarf to cheer, hoot 'n' roar for your side along with GR.


I agree there's no point discussing with you. You are too myopic. Absolutely no doubt on that. :P

How can the son of a US president, who knows nothing about gas, sit on the board of directors in a Ukrainian gas company and take payments for doing nothing?. :?

Now here we are, things go tits up and we are sanctioning Russian gas.

Its quite telling how MSNBC try to brush what Trump has to says under the carpet and smear him about something to do with a beauty pageant in Moscow years ago. Instead of tackling the issue of corruption related to Bidens administration.

That criminal Americans were coming and going to the Ukraine for the past 12-13 years planning and preparing for this debacle we are seeing today, is a well known fact…

Exhibit “A”:

The United States spent $5 billion on Ukraine anti-government riots (2014)

https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2 ... i-governm/

And now you’re asking… is Biden’s son involved?

I know this makes a hell of a difference in America’s domestic politics market where they are forever preoccupied with their “dems vs reps” war, but does it make any difference to those of us outside of the US?

I for one couldn’t care less whether it was Trump’s daughter that was involved, or Biden’s son.

They’re all criminal families to me anyway.

But yeah, it’s probably a good argument to raise in an American forum! :)

The truth of the matter is that the entire West conspired against ONE nation, first by antagonizing it into war and then with a loud proclamation of GENOCIDE!

Did you not see or hear it?

If not, then you too I’m afraid are a hypocrite!

But feel free to stick around and defend your “romanticism” :)


I am simply on the side of 'stop behaving like bullying cunts'. Does the west have a long history of behaving like bullying cunts. Yes it does. Does Russia ? Yes it does. One sides cuntery does not in my book excuse or make the other sides cuntery acceptable to me. I am against all cuntery. To try and make out that there is no level or levels of cuntery in Russia's action does not cut any mustard with me. Nor does an argument that the other sides cuntery if of greater degree and thus 'ours' is ok. I stand against cuntery. All of it. That is the only route to less cuntery in the world that I can see.

It looks like we are GAS-saved in the nick of time for now, but there's no mention of when things will change...

I am on the side of anyone and everyone who choses not to meet aggression with yet more aggression in return. There are better ways that aggression can be fought. We have been shown this historically but we have not grown up enough to realise this yet. There is a lot of vested interest in aggression.

A bit old news, but it explains how fighting around Kiev was a decoy

Russia's Ministry of Defence gives an interim account of the special operation in Ukraine:

▪️ At the first stage of the special operation, it was planned to engage the enemy forces in the Kiev and Chernigov directions on the battlefield - this would not allow them to use forces in the Donbass, which is a priority;

▪️ Conditions for the final stage of the operation to liberate the republics of Donbass have been met;

▪️ Russian forces continue to destroy fortifications which the Kiev regime has been building for more than eight years, and have taken under control the main lines of communication and supply;

▪️ The air defence systems of Ukraine, the airfield infrastructure, the largest military depots and mercenaries' training centres have been destroyed;

▪️ Russian troops are regrouping to intensify actions in priority areas and to complete the operation for the liberation of Donbass;

▪️ In total, 124 aircraft and 77 helicopters, 214 unmanned aerial vehicles, 323 unmanned aerial vehicles, 1,767 tanks and other armoured combat vehicles, 186 multiple launch rocket systems, 741 field artillery and mortars, and 1,657 units of special military vehicles of the Armed Forces of Ukraine have been destroyed during the operation

Now here’s a real funny one… :)

Putin being misled by advisers, US says

https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2022/3/3 ... s-liveblog

The super-intelligent American theory goes that… Putin is so unaware of his military’s complete and abysmal failure that he’s reluctant to make any concessions! :shock:

Well, it sounds like you’re fucked then! :?

Keep bombing…

:lol: :lol: :lol:

Everything goes right back to when I first said that a baboon will always be a baboon, no matter what! :)

Maybe it is just the nature of the medium (which is of course the massage according to Marshall McLuhan) but you really come across in this thread to me as enjoying this whole thing at levels and to degrees that really are not healthy GR.

Is it not time to have a 'cyprus-forum' real life meet up again ?
