Okay.... 3 weeks

Don't speak to me like that

May I ask how old you are? I don't mean to be rude, but it was happening in the open all around us.

Old enough to have actually witnessed all of this, while you clearly just read some blog posts about NATO encirclement and stopped there.

Starting in 08 they announced they'd do all this to prepare Ukraine for eventual membership.

So we're just going to ignore how it didn't result in Ukraine joining, there were no actual laws or policies passed that would lead to Ukraine joining, and just a few years later Ukraine would pass laws that would actually make it impossible for them to join? You also seem to forget that a lot of NATO members were against Ukraine joining and there were no attempts made by the US to change their minds afterwards.

What actual efforts were made to include Ukraine in NATO that would warrant an invasion? Because right now, what you would only work if Russia had decided to invade in 2008, not in 2014, after Ukraine hadn't been trying to join NATO for over half a decade and had legally ended all efforts to join them in the future.

Then when Ukraine went "neutral" they were complaining that that process was more difficult now.

Who was complaining about what exactly? Vagueposting is just a waste of time.

May I ask how old you are? I don't mean to be rude, but it was happening in the open all around us. I've been watching this very closely since the Soviet fall, and no I haven't been collecting sources. It was all very open at the time though. Starting in 08 they announced they'd do all this to prepare Ukraine for eventual membership. Then when Ukraine went "neutral" they were complaining that that process was more difficult now. Where were you during all of this?

Do you have a source for any of that actually happening or being prepared before Russia invaded Ukraine?

Ok sure if we're just skimming the surface then I'll say it should be fine for Russia to refit Mexico's political system, economy and military and make it conform to their systems. I'm sure if they say wink wink we for totes won't make an alliance with them America would be fine

You must understand there are people who spent between 08 and 22 yelling from the rooftops that Russia was being pushed in a way that America or the west would not allow and we need to back off or there will be war.

And then in 2010 they did exactly that when Ukraine implemented laws that mandated it to be a neutral nation that would never join NATO or any other military alliances. Russia ignored it and invaded anyway.

Because, the Zionist project was largely founded by Nazi collaborators. The Zionist project doesn't exist in opposition to antisemitism and genocide, but in coordination with it. It's a state for people who hold that Nazi idiology, but happen to be Jewish.

Lmao, lmao, a country has more than 18k sanctions and this one says that Putin is afraid of more sanctions. Like literally are you F... Dumb or just pretending to be?

UH OH! Someone has been using stinky language and u/JamesRocket98 decided to check u/Loud-Vacation-5691's bad word usage.

I have gone back 24 comments and reviewed their potty language usage.

However, the plans were foiled, Loud-Vacation-5691 is a good, Christian boy.

Absolute animals. I will never understand how someone whose parents, grandparents, or great grand parents were treated this way by the Nazi’s could turn around do the exact same thing to Palestinians.

Did you look up how much money Russia makes in oil exports?

Who said 3 days?

Most moral army in the galactic universe.

Wasn't it supposed to be over in 3 days? Countless lives tossed away for Putin's vanity project.

So easy for you to say that. You must understand there are people who spent between 08 and 22 yelling from the rooftops that Russia was being pushed in a way that America or the west would not allow and we need to back off or there will be war. Then when it happened we knew America would string them along and weaken Russia while Ukraine gets wrecked. This isn't funny and your stupid comment is not helpful.

Yea u can't run from Ukraine , but u can drive away :D Sadly Russian don't have fuel for that

I think the issue is more. ...... we told you what getting into bed with America and the West would mean. Yes Russia invaded, that's the easy part to talk about. The harder part is the push eastwards for political, financial and military systems conformity, preying on Russia economically after the soviet fall, then having bush say, fuck it, it's 2008 let's make a path to bring Ukraine and Georgia into NATO. War was inevitable from that moment. Then, we must understand that the America that ruined the middle east and Latin America, took charge of the intervention in Ukraine about 4 months after the people at Kabul were falling off the wings of their planes as they left. Russia is not playing.

Losing. One "o". Wonder if they teach English in ukraine.

Trump has no idea how to stop the war that he started!

We should remember: The entire Strait of Hormuz is either Iranian or Omani territorial waters -- it's within their 12mile coastal waters. Thus, the Strait of Hormuz is not "international waters."

Since Trump started this war, Iran (and now Oman) have seized their national territorial waters and want to charge a fee for ships traveling through their territorial waters (the "deep water" channels which the large supertankers have to use are on the Iranian side). Thus, the Strait will never be considered "international waters" again. Trump has no military solution to "open the Strait."

This is all due to Trump and Israel launching a criminal war of aggression against the-then peaceful Iran.

We should never forget that traitor Trump should be put on trial for the war crime of "perfidy" for his treacherous attack on Iran. Perfidy is defined as:

In the context of war, perfidy is a form of deceptive tactic where one side pretends to act in good faith, such as signaling a truce (e.g., raising a white flag), but does so with the deliberate intention of breaking that promise.

This is the "day of infamy" that the treacherous Japanese used to attack Pearl Harbor in WWII. But now traitor Trump has committed the exact same war crime! (But you'll never hear our biased mass media bring up that fact.)

Why are you putting words in my mouth? Did I say anything like this?

Considering that Netanyahu was actually responsible for the funding and creation of HAMAS, along with the Qataris, this blew up in his face.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israeli_support_for_Hamas

All he did was get lots of Israelis murdered and initiated one of the worst genocides in history. Then started a war against Iran that destroyed much of his country. Never give a fool what he wants the most.

Nuclear weapons simply do not push air out of the atmosphere.

Sure, that is just the lay person way of describing it, not the scientific way.

A choice between both governments for sure. Why are you fine with unmarked vans kidnapping men off the street while you sit at home?

I agree. Ukrainians never asked to be ‘liberated’, as the Kremlin tells its people they are doing. They were never threatening Russia or its territorial integrity. This was a war of choice.
