I guess Zelensky would agree to whatever the citizens wish. amd if they with to join NATO, they are free to do it. Want it or not.

Im not judging you pal, so there is that.

You be you.

As to Edinburgh, im not one for it if im honest, people are indeed ok, but i find the place to be rather over priced and pretentious in a similar manner to London if im honest.

Yes all wars are indeed horrendous, i dina fancy finding out what a nuclear war looks like all the same, even through where i am located we probably would not know much about it and be atomised in no time sharpish.

Have to keep in mind that Ukraine received assurance from Russia and the west when she choose to give up her nuclear warheads that she would not be invaded.

I dont think missiles are a good idea also in the area but that being said, and given the era of hypersonics we are circling or even entered, the problem may be rather redundant given the capabilities that will materialise where missile salvos are concerned.

Cooler heads need to prevail and they need to come to the peace table with an actual ceasefire and end to hostilities imho.

In Ukraine there is a successful Revolution of Dignity. Here a poorly, stupidly, stupid, protest by dumb people is an insurrection, but a coup/insurrection/overthrow in Ukraine is Dignity.

These people like OP see Jews, black people etc. as helpless victims who are only useful for virtue signaling. Can't possibly imagine that a Jew could be a real president and not a puppet. Or that a Jewish president could use the Azov battalion to help protect his people when they're facing other groups of nazis who want to exterminate both just for being Ukrainian.

the race card? I'm afraid that's been played a bit too much. You will have to play again, and this time, construct a rational argument. Good luck.

But that's what I said. Did you reply to the wrong person?

No I was talking about musicismagic, not presidents.

There the Russians have just stuck a base 15 miles away from Polish territory!

30 missiles in over an hour.

Putin's cutting it rather close with the likes of attacks like that.

That's how things all go pear shaped.

Not exactly very dignifying put it that way.

And why situations like this need to be resolved sharpish.

My post makes no sense because my question marks were omitted. Let's try again:

Well the world is rather larger and more complex than American political ideologies or affiliations.

As to what transpired on Jan 6, that's another kettle of fish with plenty of threads on the subject i suppose.

Perspective can be a female dog at the best of times after all.

Tell you what Andy, pack your bags and go fight Ivan. The Russians have been a force for hundreds of years. Anybody that doesn't understand that...well?

a reply to: andy06shake
Yes, larger than Scottish ideology.

I apologize if I came across a bit harsh. Generalizations, we should probably stay away from using..American, Scottish..ideologies and such. Apologies again.

a reply to: calman787

Don't be scared. Russia is never as weak as it seems nor as strong as it seems, that's an old saying I heard.

Sent you a pm.

What we all have to ask is what changed between the fall of the Soviet Union and, 2014, Crimea or Georgia or Iraq or Afghanistan or Libya or Yugoslavia or Syria [added in for effect Vietnam] or all the forgotten wars and slaughters in Africa and Asia, but now Ukraine is a big deal? It is a big deal but those other conflicts were less so? Man kill man is a never ending story unfortunately.

Lets talk about that guy in red hat shall we?
He's still in a good shape. Still your best avatar option.
Would he respect some of the Putins demands?
If it came to this point anyway, would he send a ship or two to Mariupol before they starve to death? I think so. He's assertive. He's right about the abomination but he's also out. That's what he is.

No thank you, as i have suggested before, only way i would ever fight in a war is if my own nation was invaded.

If every one stuck to that rule the world would be a far better place to exist.

And if only it was that simple.

As to "The Russians have been a force for hundreds of years". I think you might find Kiev is rather older than Moscow by about 650 odd years or so.

And anybody that doesn't understand that...well....they require a refresher course in History.

You feel free to fire over to the Ukraine, probably get in the way, or worse, if you must all the same.

Ile quite happily sit here and simply have an opinion until forced to do otherwise ta very much.

War is hell you see and a mugs game, unless we must.

a reply to: calman787

Indeed.

That "Scottish ideology" kind of helped shape and build the USA all the same, so there is that.

Never mind a few other choice nation around the globe.

I don't rate the place much if im honest, good and bad places, just like everywhere else.

Weather is fecking abysmal for a start. LoL

Worse places to exist i suppose, Russia or Ukraine, springing to mind.

a reply to: musicismagic

Iran attacking Iraq.
China human rights violations.
The disaster in Afghanistan with Americans still left behind.
Open border policy on the US southern border.
Rampant inflation.
Higher prices for everything.


And everyone gets pissy about Ukraine.

Well, sorry.

I know Russia sucks and invading Ukraine sucks for Ukrainians.

But we've got a mindless administration and the US is collapsing under the "leadership" of the moronic and evil left.

I have no more f###'s to give.

Sorry.

Certainly never been peace on Earth or lightly to be in our time.
