Russian invasion of Ukraine

[Akai]

Anyone else picking up vibes from Washington that, even if Russia attacked a NATO partner, the US wouldn't want to get involved in a war with Russia?

If no one will pay for their services, then they will not be involved. Unless if its against China, that's the real threat to them.

But would they defend NATO members against Russia, with their nuclear arsenal ?
I'm not so certain they would

Yes, of course they would.

Not to do so would end NATO against the most likely enemy.

The nuclear stuff is overblown, I think, unless the entire nation of Russia was threatened with destruction.

In what way are NATO and the West causing trouble exactly?

The Chinese will be our new overlords one day, better start learning Mandarin

Seeing Ukraine’s president really does show you there are still great leaders out there. I just hope the guy can survive as he’s no doubt target number one for the Russians to try and destroy morale.

He was a TV comedian when he got elected. Now he is a statesman and a very brave one at that. When the gutless coward and gangster Putin eventually has him tracked down and no doubt has him killed that will be real low point in world history.

Don'tr really rate a lot of the shit that Brand comes out with, but it's worth having a look at the view outside the main narrative.

Did you really just compare Tony Blair to Putin?

Get to absolute fuck, you crank.

I just stated a fact, it’s you that made the comparison.

I agree, but was just the tone of the lady reporting Biden's stance this morning left me thinking otherwise

Haven't seen it, but possibly phrased in response to a specific question?

I assume it was Psaki the press secretary

It really isn’t, the company I work for isn’t owned by Dominic Raab.

Admittedly if it was, I’d have handed my notice in a long time ago though!

Neither is the club Zinch plays for.

Feel genuinely sorry for the people of Ukraine. But as outsiders, the way I see it it’s literally NATO and the West causing trouble on one side vs an egotistical and expansionist Russia on the other side.

As always we are just pawns in geo politics and the west also has blood on their hands.

You’re also the guy that wants them to immediately surrender also yeah? I’ll repeat I’m glad I’m not stuck in a trench with you. You sound like a twat and one that’s very wrong at that.
