Re: The Ukraine Crisis
You apparently weren't paying attention to how much opposition Poland put up against Nord Stream, nor how they have recently demanded 1.3T in reparations from Germany.
Of course if Poland did blow up Nord Stream, they'd have to get the okay from the US.

Poland screwed over Germany in 1939 like Ukraine screwed over Russia in 2014 and 2022

Because Russia is using Nordstream as leverage. The less they depend on Russia for anything, the better off Germany is. Germany should have listened to Poland.SeattleGriz wrote: ↑Wed Oct 19, 2022 7:57 amHow was Poland opposing Nordstream in Germany's interest?

That's some next level 3D chess. Russia sabotaged the one item in which they had leverage, and now nobody will show proof it was Russia. Putin's mind control is amazing.

Re: The Ukraine Crisis
Sounds like you should read up on what was going on in the Donbas prior to Feb 2022.houndawg wrote: ↑Mon Oct 17, 2022 5:49 amYou don't negotiate with invaders that deliberately target civilians, comrade, you kill them until they leave.SDHornet wrote: ↑Sun Oct 16, 2022 5:50 pm
Apples and Oranges if we doing it because WMDs that didn't exist. Ok.![]()
I recall there being less than 30 civilians killed in the first 2 days of the drone/missile barrage. That number has probably gone up since we are more than a week into this new aerial attack, but if they were intentionally targeting civilians I would think that number would be a lot higher.
That said, civilian casualties are inexcusable and unacceptable. Now do Ukraine and their shelling of the Donbas since the coup in 2014, or better yet, just do the civilians killed by Ukrainian shelling of civilians areas since the Russian invasion. Or does it only matter if Russia is doing the killing of civilians?
I will tangent into this, if NATO/US was so concerned about civilian casualties (or even military casualties), then why no push for negotiations to end this war? Why was a potential peace deal in April scuttled by NATO/US since human life has so much value?![]()

Re: The Ukraine Crisis
Speaking of attacking unarmed civilians, saw reports of some of the civilian ferries used by folks evacuating the Kherson region by mean of crossing the Dnipro River getting hit by Ukrainian shelling...or you gonna claim that Russia did that too?houndawg wrote: ↑Mon Oct 17, 2022 5:55 amNot very likely unless its against unarmed civilians. The Russian troops have no desire to fight Putin's war and it is rumored that the "accident" that killed more than a dozen recruits at a training facility near Ukraine was caused by disgruntled recruits - I don't know if its true or not but many people are saying...SDHornet wrote: ↑Sun Oct 16, 2022 5:56 pm BTW no significant movement on the fronts for the past 5-ish days since the aerial bombardment started. Reports of Russian troops massing in Belarus. Looks like Ukraine lost the initiative as they've made no major moves to reclaim territory. Lots of speculation on a big battle looming before the winter conditions set in.
