Guest Posted March 15, 2023 Report Posted March 15, 2023 2 hours ago, myata said: "territorial dispute". Taiwan and Ukraine are territorial disputes. One is supported by the west, in that acceptable ways to call Taiwan, is to call it Taipei. The other is not. If you read about history, you would see why both are contested plots of land. As a result, the more control that is lost on these assets, the likelier the eventuality of war will occur. This is a brutal invasion, but one must look at the motive behind it. This isn't a random invasion, based on Putin being bored. This was a land grab, many years in the making. Quote
Guest Posted March 15, 2023 Report Posted March 15, 2023 With that in mind, Taiwan applying for NATO, would all but guarantee war on their island as well. One must understand the dynamics of the situation, in knowing what poking the bear will result in. This war was preventable. The US is attempting to destroy Russia, in what has become a proxy war, where they don't have to lose any of their own soldier's lives to fight. Russia will never back down, and would rather escalate, than to lose face. One needs to know who you're dealing with, and this mindset that this will result in a win, is insane at best. Russia will continue with the total destruction of this country, until Ukraine is brought to the negotiating table, on terms that are acceptable to them. Quote

This isn't a random invasion, based on Putin being bored. This was a land grab, many years in the making. You are an ignorant twit who knows absolutely nothing whatsoever about any of this. After the USSR collapsed in 1989, a government was formed which was a confederation of independent states. This confederation then agreed by treaty to dissolve into independent nations. This is settled fact and international law. Not only Ukraine, but Belarus, and all the other former Soviet states are now independent nations. There is no dispute as to the borders or the legality. These nations have long had their own currency, UN seats, embassies, independent governments and so on. Russia simply invaded the independent country of Ukraine. To put it simply, because big sentences are obviously difficult for you: Russia does not dispute the borders of Ukraine, they dispute the EXISTENCE of an independent Ukraine nation. They want ALL of Ukraine to be part of Russia. That is not a dispute of “territory.” It is a dispute, or war, of the nation’s existence. The evidence is obvious: The Ukrainian people are fighting. With or without US weapons, they are fighting the Russians. Edited March 15, 2023 by Rebound 1 Quote @reason10: “Hitler had very little to do with the Holocaust.”

Putin has no justification whatsoever for invading Ukraine. Most of the world thought Ukraine would fall in a few weeks, and had it fallen, Putin would then have invaded another country and another. Ask yourself: What is the justification for invading Ukraine? Those people are fighting obviously, they do not want to be part of Russia.

Ask yourself: What is the justification for invading Ukraine? Those people are fighting obviously, they do not want to be part of Russia. The reason given was that the eastern sliver of Ukraine is full of ethnic Russians who do not want to be part of Ukraine, and that Ukraine has unleashed a Neo-NAZI battalion on that region which was in the process of murdering anyone who spoke Russian. The facts seem to support these accusations. Your scared little insistence that Putin would proceed to invade NATO nations afterwards is completely unsubstantiated crap. In my view...a nation which I have no desire to even visit, moved in on another nation I have no intentions of ever visiting. The "invader" has goodies the entire world needs. The "invaded" has very little to offer anyone. Maybe some grain. The "invaded" also tried and failed to join NATO because...well...their nation is a mess and corrupt as can be. So do I think jumping into this little war is a wise idea? Fck no! I think its asinine. But...you can dawn your frilly skirt and pom poms and go cheerlead for a bigger and much more destructive war in Europe because: A. You wouldn't be getting shot at here on this side of the pond. B. You don't seem to be able to live comfortable without that teddy called Fear clutched to your chest. Just remember...once you go out in your frilly cheerleading outfit...Sen.

Boges Posted March 15, 2023 Report Posted March 15, 2023 It's good that some Republicans realize this war is a horrific attack on Freedom and Democracy. And the comparisons to Hitler annexing territory in 1939 is a perfect comparable. Anyone who see it otherwise is just an Pro-Putin Chamberlain. pEaCe In OuR tImE. 2 Quote
