More like undercover kickbacks gathering….

The only thing there is no question about is that RT is a Kremlin propaganda channel that spouts the most outrageous nonsense. I’m willing to bet my last dollar, euro and baht that that video is fake.

Bangkok is indeed a great city, but they must have forgotten to factor in the abysmal air quality most of the year, otherwise it could never have landed in 30th place.

LOL. Past performance is no guarantee of future results…..

????????Must be a nice view for the staff of the Russian embassy in Berlin: German peace activists park rusty tank outside Russian embassy. Activists protesting against Russia's invasion of Ukraine parked a destroyed, rusty tank directly in front of the Russian embassy in Berlin on Friday, bringing a piece of the battlefield to the centre of the German capital. "The broken tank signifies downfall. Ukraine is going to be Putin's Stalingrad," said Wieland Giebel, curator of the Berlin Story Bunker museum, referring to Germany's defeat in a major battle in World War Two. https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/german-activists-park-destroyed-rusting-tank-outside-russian-embassy-2023-02-24/

I found this quite enlightening: “Ukraine war: ‘vranyo’ – Russian for when you lie and everyone knows it, but you don’t care.” Which means I know you know I’m lying to you, yet I’m going to lie to you anyway. That is a very interesting and strange mindset, at which the Russian powers that be apparently excel. https://theconversation.com/ukraine-war-vranyo-russian-for-when-you-lie-and-everyone-knows-it-but-you-dont-care-181100

I’m guessing Mike Lindell’s brain is fried from all the meth/crack he took. How anyone can take a loon like that seriously is beyond me. For instance: how many times exactly (dozens, at least) did he promise to give the world irrefutable evidence that the 2020 election was rigged? And how many times exactly (zero!!) did he actually give us even the tiniest shred of evidence? Just saying….

Such a shame that Putin will probably never get to see this….

“Seems like a lot of wishin' and hopin' is going on.” Right back at you, mate. At least I’m hoping for a good outcome of this war, something I’m not quite sure you’re rooting for.

Of course, between Zelensky and Putin, Zelensky is obviously the dangerous one.

Great news: Poland delivers first Leopard tanks to Ukraine. Hope many more will follow as soon as possible. https://www.dw.com/en/poland-delivers-first-leopard-tanks-to-ukraine/a-64809432

If you believe RT over CNN, you’re even deeper down the rabbit hole than I thought. There is overwhelming evidence of thousands of Russian war crimes in Ukraine.

After the Russian invasion and all the atrocities (war crimes) that the Russian army and Wagner committed in Ukraine, I suspect there are not many Ukrainians left who have a favorable view of Russia, or the Russians in general.

Semantics. Do you really want to go there? Fact is, many Russians believe Ukraine doesn’t have the right to exist, and even that all Ukrainians should be killed. Call it what you will, but if Russia were in charge there now (which would have been perfectly okay with you, judging by your posts), Ukrainians would be hunted down, put in concentration camps, or worse.

It has everything to do with us. If we didn’t help Ukraine, that would lead to Russia getting bolder and bolder, the bully being rewarded for his aggression. And Biden didn’t stir up anything, this is all on Putin and his clique.

It’s the classic right-wing playbook: taking credit for things they had absolutely nothing to do with, and blaming others for their own screwups. Donald Trump and his cult followers had/have that down to a tee.

You must be getting your news from different news outlets, because I can’t find anything about a Russian offensive (other than those which have failed or stalled), much less about Russian military helicopters controlling air space over Kyiv. But even if that were so: should we have just let the Russians do what they wanted and looked the other way from the start? Ukraine would now have been Russian, ethnic cleansing would be in full swing, not to mention that Russia would now be plotting their next move, probably against the Baltics.

You just said the war would have been over if the West hadn’t stuck their nose in. Which would have meant the obliteration of Ukraine.

Classic victim blaming. Russia invaded Ukraine, didn’t they? And it would not have saved unnecessary deaths, on the contrary. I guess you are aware of what happened in Bucha? And what is happening in areas occupied by Russia? People are being raped, tortured and killed on a massive scale. Many in Russia believe that all Ukrainians should be killed. Sound familiar? Germany attempted to do the same with the Jews in WWII. And those Ukrainian freeloaders, as you called them, are now fighting to keep Russia out of the rest of Europe, and they’re paying a very high price for that. A little more respect would be in order, IMO. And you like what Chamberlain did? Seriously? Talk about someone who caused unnecessary deaths.

Well, Ukraine would now have been Russian, that’s probably true. But the war would have been far from over, because Putin and his clique are not satisfied with just Ukraine, they have their eyes on a far bigger loot, they want the old USSR back, and all the Eastern Block states. Sticking your head in the sand is one way to go, but we have seen how that works out in the end. Remember Chamberlain in 1939?

I read Aseannow on my Ipad and for about two months now, these extremely annoying pop-up video ads keep appearing in the lower right hand corner. After five seconds, you can click it away, but then ten seconds later it appears again. And again. And again. I have installed AdGuard, but that doesn’t seem to help. Anyone has any idea how tho get rid of this pop-up?

Translation: if the accused immigration officers pay him a fair amount of money, he will make the charges go away.

At least Biden made the effort - and had the balls - to go to Kyiv. Your guy Trump would never have done that, and he (private bone spurs, the president who called his own soldiers losers and suckers, and made fun of actual war heroes) wouldn’t have had the balls either.

This is how low he will stoop: Putin heralds unit that provided MH17-striking missile with honorific title. https://novayagazeta.eu/articles/2023/02/21/putin-heralds-unit-that-provided-mh17-striking-missile-with-honorific-title-en-news What a petty, petty man. I hope he gets rectal cancer.

Bring a gas mask, the air quality there is terrible and will only get worse until the rainy season starts.
