Don’t start nothin, won’t be nothin.
Don’t start nothin, won’t be nothin.
Says the one defending this: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Izium_mass_graves
No wait, I know, it’s what they get for fighting back, like when a woman makes her husband beat her.
One holodomor isn’t enough, the Russians deserve the chance to do another?
They never paid for the first, the Ukrainians should make them.

That seems like a harmful act that is meant to instill fear.
I suggest the rational response is to proportionally inspire more fear in them.
This is a response, and the only rational one.
Honestly though, our clandestine services would save a lot of lives by simply removing the problem from the top.
NATO is growing stronger, Poland is growing an army that’s honestly terrifying.
As this continues, Ukraine will continue to get better weapons while Russia keeps digging deeper and deeper into their cold war reserves.
They’ve already given up on their t-14s and haven’t seen the su-57s lately.
I look forward to the t-34s coming back into service.
I think we need to do both, there is no reason to hold back on any front.
Break the country, then we can figure out how to move forward properly.
We tried the kind and gentle approach after the ussr, which was the right thing then, but they don’t respond well, they considered it weakness.
That only leaves the other extreme.
You’re missing the settlers and their ultranationalist allies.
They’re basically the mirror to Hamas.
Yeah ok, this is just sad.
The only ethnic cleansing Ukraine did was clearing all the Russian scrap trash from the Black Sea.
Not that it needed much help, the Russian navy is famous for turning their cruisers into submarines and their submarines into permanent submarines themselves.
The Ukrainians were always the intelligent ones in the Russian empire and later the Soviet Union, without them Russia can’t keep lost of their tech going.
The west needs to move further though, Finland and Sweden simply isn’t enough, we need to build up Georgia as well, and Armenia now that they’ve realized how useless an ally Russia is.
We let russia go too far for too long, it’s finally time to end this nuisance so we can focus on problems that actually matter.
It absolutely does, no better way to end terrorism than to make the terrorists afraid of committing acts due to the retaliation.
Lot of afghans still look up in fear when they hear a noise on a clear day.
This is absolutely true .
Which is why the Russians were so foolish as to commit blatant terrorism while leaving their calling cards.
We made an example of Nazi Germany and imperial Japan, those lessons held. The same is needed here to imprint the lesson.

“Europe does not have a developed [early warning system],” he added. “In this sense they are more or less defenceless.”
So, to which parts of the world might Russia deploy its missiles?
“Wherever we think it is necessary, we’re definitely going to put them. As President Putin made clear, we’ll investigate this question,” Vladimir Solovyov, one of Russian state TV’s most prominent hosts, tells me.
They had one, they elected zelensky.
It’s not genocide, freeing all those poor, oppressed minorities under the Russian Empire.
It’s liberation, the freedom they deserve.
You must be too young to remember when gorbechev offered Ukraine to stay in the new federation and they clearly said no.
Who in their right mind would voluntarily want to be Russian?
Most countries have something in their past to be proud of, Russia just has humiliation after humiliation after humiliation, all self_inflicted.
Or inflicted on others, like the holodomor or all the purges.
But seriously though, we owe them. They managed to unite the west with their invasion, they grew NATO and made Xi give up on taking Taiwan. Without their help we might have actually had to do something.
Russia as an enemy is the greatest ally anyone can have.
I don’t know, what was the special military operation supposed to achieve? Because it seems to have failed.
And I stood on the right side.
Going to war to kill evil invaders is not bad.
Invading an innocent country and killing their civilians is.
If that is true than how evil are the Russian soldiers for wanting to invade an innocent country and willfully kill their civilians?
Have you seen what they did to Ukraine?
It’s counter-terrorism.
You can’t let terrorists get away with their terror, the fear must be repaid 10-fold or it will never end.
What does it tell you that they hate Russia so much (everyone does), that they’re happy to run to Russia’s worst enemy?
None of this matters, Russia won’t be a country in 10-15 years anyway, between us supporting all their internal ethnic groups which will break away into their own “stans” and otherwise arming everyone who hates them, they’ll be shattered just like in the 90s, and this time we’ll keep them that way.
We should give Ukraine their nukes back just so they don’t have to suffer through this period.
Sigh.
Brazil is held back because they have a tiny majority of super-rich landholders who control the political landscape, not the US.
There’s a name for them, they prefer Brazil does worse if it means they get more control.
Until their political power (they control most states outside the urbanized ones) is neutralized, Brazil is doomed.
I’m sorry, you’ll have to speak up, I can’t hear you over the sound of Russia being invaded by the country it tried to invade.
