It's entirely reasonable to ask for clear, easily verifiable proof. As Ronald Reagan famously said, "Trust, but verify." If he is indeed serving in Ukraine, I have genuine sympathy for his courage , however misdirected it might be—and would welcome his firsthand insights from the battlefield. If not, then, as any current or former servicemember will tell you, stolen valour is taken very seriously. Apparently, there are a significant number of so-called "Walts" (military impostors), and quite a few seem to be in Thailand for reasons unknown.

They took a leaf out of Ukraine's media war !

Aye 4 years ago the dialogue changed but some have reason to not trust that volte face and rightly so. But while intent can become clouded and often obscured, political agendas typically prevail – the Congressional ban was later lifted – Azov is currently an official member of the Ukraine National Guard. Global aid to Ukraine since 2022 has reached a staggering €400 billion committed as of December 2024, or about $430 billion, according to the Kiel Institute for the World Economy. Shouldn’t we have asked better questions of Ukraine before the financial largess began? Or did we already know the answers and as is typical – allowed politics rather than principle to dictate? https://blogs.timesofisrael.com/does-ukraine-have-a-neo-nazi-problem/

All wars , all armies, all people's period. No ifs no buts no weasel words.

The genocided them same in Australia and New Zealand that way the rump doesn't come back to bite you. If I was Trump I would conspire with Milei of Argentina to get the Malvinas back.

They will just be taking back sovereign territory - stay in your lanes superpowers. US gets Canada and Greenland , Russia - Ukraine , China- Taiwan them's the new rules for the newish century. Sorry for any misunderstandings.

The status of Crimea has changed several times over the past few centuries. Here's a brief overview: Timeline of Russian Control over Crimea: 1783–1954: Crimea was annexed by the Russian Empire in 1783 under Catherine the Great and remained part of Russia until 1954. ➤ Total: 171 years 1954–1991: Crimea was transferred to the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic (a part of the USSR) by Nikita Khrushchev. Although still under Soviet control, it was administratively part of Ukraine. 1991–2014: After the Soviet Union collapsed in 1991, Crimea became part of independent Ukraine. Since 2014: Russia annexed Crimea in March 2014, a move not recognized by Ukraine or most of the international community. However, Russia considers it part of its territory. ➤ As of 2025, that's 11 years Total Time Under Russian Control: 1783–1954: 171 years (Imperial Russia + USSR) 2014–2025: 11 years (Modern Russia) Grand Total: 182 years, if you count both periods together under Russian control. Would you like a visual timeline of Crimea’s history?

Even Biden never seriously considered regime change as an option — and in any case, the five million-strong security apparatus, the Siloviki, would never allow it. What’s far more likely is that Ukraine, abandoned by most of its allies and largely unfunded, simply collapses. The country is already on life support — if the money stops flowing, salaries go unpaid, pensions dry up, and a whole range of other systems begin to fail. Add to that an armed and angry segment of the population, and you have the perfect storm. That's Putin's endpoint he is aiming for , a client state on his borders and Trump for the most part is happy with that. https://www.newsweek.com/who-are-siloviki-russias-elite-security-faction-1775796

The investment the Russians made in Trump over decades is probably the best return of investment ever in any context bar none. To own a US President to the Soviets would be off the scale of impossible. But here we are - on Russian state media he is regarded as a friend. Trump: Russia not taking over Ukraine is a concession - POLITICO https://thehill.com/policy/international/5265907-trump-russia-ukraine-peace/ Speaking to reporters in the Oval Office during a meeting with Norway’s prime minister, Trump was asked what concessions Russia has “offered up thus far to get to the point where you’re closer to peace.” “Stopping the war, stopping from taking the whole country, pretty big concession,” Trump responded.

Civil War, global warming , societal collapse by 2050 - now entering the end game of civilisation.

The DPRK is the correct designation for what is commonly referred to as 'North Korea.' Whether one accepts the legitimacy of that name is another matter entirely. I was under the impression that forum rules required the correct terminology when referring to countries and their people.

Trump appears to be steering toward the creation of a kleptocratic, oligarchical U.S. state—and Project 2025 is a central element in that vision. Its goal is to consolidate executive power, dismantle key federal institutions, and ensure that a loyal elite remains in control regardless of election outcomes. He sees Putin's Russia as an enviable template to emulste. The strategy depends on empowering a circle of enriched allies and loyalists, who will have a vested interest in maintaining the system. For them, failure isn’t just political—it could mean becoming targets in a future democratic reckoning. John Bolton was a neo-con warhawk that's turned into rent-a-gob for hire.

Are those Nazis in the room with you right now? Surely you realize that’s just a propaganda canard used to sell the "Special Military Operation" to the Russian public.

White House debates lifting sanctions on Russian energy assets, Nord Stream The debate pits Steve Witkoff against State Department and U.S. energy export proponents. https://www.politico.com/news/2025/04/23/white-house-debating-lifting-sanctions-on-russian-energy-assets-00306486 Lifting the sanctions currently in place on one of Russia’s main pipelines connecting its natural gas fields to western Europe would be a sharp reversal in the U.S. policy first put in place during President Donald Trump’s first term. President Joe Biden waived those sanctions early in his term, but reimposed them after Russian President Vladimir Putin launched the invasion of Ukraine in 2022. Restarting Nord Stream 2 could provide a financial windfall to Moscow, but only if the EU agreed to accept buying Russian gas via the pipeline again — a prospect that seems unlikely given the EU’s campaign to wean itself off Russian energy imports. But lifting the sanctions would amount to a diplomatic coup for Russia and a major concession from Trump.

The sooner people realize that the old world order has collapsed—and that Trump's America appears more aligned with Russia than opposed to it, while NATO faces increasing internal strain—the sooner we can begin to navigate this new and uncertain global landscape. Recognizing the reality of great power politics is part of that necessary adjustment. Ukraine faces a painful choice: continue fighting and risk further destruction, or accept a difficult peace and try to salvage what remains of its sovereignty. In either case, it must reconsider who its true allies are and what the future of the nation-state looks like in a post-war context.It's a harsh truth, but in this geopolitical calculus, morality and ethics are often sidelined by raw power dynamics. At this stage, it's like backing Boudica against the Romans—it may have been a noble cause in the context of the times, but it turned out to be a foolish one nevertheless.

That's not the point, though you're cheering on barbarism as a response to barbarism. During World War II, the Allies for the most part scrupulously adhered to the rules of war, even when the Nazis blatantly did not (think of the Great Escape and many other examples). Upholding those standards isn’t just about fairness — it’s the right thing to do, especially if we claim to be fighting for Western values.
