Re: Russia has invaded Ukraine

I'm pretty sure he means Russia's side of the world, since they are fighting for Russia.

Last I checked, Russia & China share a border.

Re: Russia has invaded Ukraine

China is effectively a neighbour because of Russian ties. And as the map is layed out as USA west - Russia east I see no reason to believe anything other than that.

Just the political institution, although I'd turn a smile if France and Ireland were particularly upset.

Yeah - shame about that.
Pettiness ill-becomes you.

It wouldn’t just be the Governments that suffer, but also the people - btw, 300 million people in Europe aren’t in the EU…

Re: Russia has invaded Ukraine

I enjoy the pretence that those helicopter crashes in the wilderness and deaths in training exercises aren’t American deaths in Ukraine.

Strange that you find enjoyment int the deaths of others…

Please feel free to condemn the Russian killing of those nine children in the Kryvyi Rih playground.

I enjoy the pretence, not the death. Both sides rely on mercenaries the supposed shock and horror Russia do is ridiculous.

Nobody has condemned the killing of children in modern warfare more than me on this forum. I’ve said before Russia should be commended for evacuating children from warzones rather than the Israeli approach of borderline ethnic cleansing. You won’t find me hiding behind “war, innit?”.

Seriously, dude?

"Russia should be commended" for kidnapping children from warzones they created - you’ve gone full vatnik.

Look at the alternative. Israel with a strike rate of 10-20% at best as they raze Gaza to the ground. Women and children killed indiscriminately under the guise of “collateral damage”.

Add up the numbers. Actors in war have duties to protect the rights of children in the territory the occupy. Russia, by any barometer, are better at this than Israel.

Re: Russia has invaded Ukraine

What’s next? Are you going to commend the rapist who takes his victim to A&E after he assaults and ruins her life forever, but at least he’s not as bad as the other one who just left her at the side of the road?

You appear to be actually defending the Russians because they’re not as evil as Netanyahu because they’re kidnapping the children they made orphans - you seriously need to look at your moral compass…

Not at all.

It’s all a slippery slope. Russia not being as evil as Netanyahu is a pertinent point if the state we live in, and our allies, are offering logistical support (ant best) and a moral shield (at worst) for the activities of Israel.

I’ve added the updated version of your post after my response above. Yes, removing children from warzones, including orphans, is a more desirable than killing them because “war is ugly”.
