Johnson Calls Anti-Trump Protests 'Hate America' Rallies More apt - "Riot Inc." Color revolution style protests funded and organized by the Left-wing billionaire class.

So much for the "Ukraine is winning the war" canard. Even Trump can read the tea leaves. The Russian SMO is an attrition war, and as Russian President Putin has stated, as in the 20+ year "Winter War" with Finland, Russia can grind away until it meets it's stated objectives. In a nutshell as state by Putin's spokesman, Demitry Peskov, "Demilitarisation, denazification, (and) ensuring the safety of people living in those regions that have already become Russian, protecting them from direct attacks and actually saving their lives." And like the goals of the Winter War, to create a neutral buffer between the Russian homeland and an aggressive neighbor, in this case, the NATO proxy, the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

Trump Urges Zelenskyy to Accept Putin’s Terms Former U.S. President Donald Trump reportedly advised Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to accept Russian President Vladimir Putin’s terms to end the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war, according to the Financial Times. In private discussions, Trump suggested that Russia’s military strength could devastate Ukraine, urging Zelenskyy to negotiate peace to avoid further destruction. The talks, held during a September 2025 meeting at Trump Tower, reflect Trump’s push for a swift resolution as he campaigns for the 2024 U.S. presidential election. His stance aligns with his broader narrative of prioritizing diplomacy over prolonged military support for Ukraine. Zelenskyy, however, remains cautious, emphasizing Ukraine’s sovereignty and resilience against Russian aggression. Putin’s terms reportedly include Ukraine ceding occupied territories, such as parts of Donetsk and Luhansk, and abandoning NATO membership aspirations. These demands have been met with resistance from Kyiv, which views them as undermining national integrity. The conflict, now in its third year, has caused significant casualties and economic strain, with Ukraine relying heavily on Western aid. Trump’s intervention highlights the complex interplay of international politics, as the U.S. election looms and global leaders weigh in on the war’s future. Critics argue Trump’s approach risks emboldening Russia, while supporters see it as a pragmatic step toward de-escalation. The discussions underscore the challenges of achieving peace amid entrenched positions and ongoing hostilities. Key Takeaways Trump’s Diplomacy Push: Trump urged Zelenskyy to negotiate with Putin to end the Russia-Ukraine war. Putin’s Demands: Russia seeks territorial concessions and Ukraine’s neutrality on NATO membership. Global Implications: The talks reflect U.S. election dynamics and the war’s broader economic impact.

Why did you remove the link to my post? The link was placed in the post when I wrote it. You are a real disruption. Your posts are primarily troll posts looking to get a rise out of other members here. You seem to have a single purpose on the forum and that's to create discord and disruption. You add next to nothing other than inciting. And you excel at twisting what others posts. And you're unethical. I'm not playing word games with you.

I'm afraid not. I placed the link in the comment after I finished writing the comment, specifically because I didn't want anyone to claim there was no link provided.

☝️The link is right here in my post - which you took out after which you asked for a link. 👆 (click Expand) https://lordslibrary.parliament.uk/select-communications-offences-and-concerns-over-free-speech/ Why did you take the link out and then state, "Need a link to prove....." What you did - taking the link out and then asking for the link - is disingenuous. Actually it's in violation of the forum rules, specifically: Rule 28: You will not make changes to messages quoted from other members posts, except for purposes of shortening the quoted post. Do not shorten any post in a way that alters the context of the original post. Do not change the formatting of the post you are quoting. You purposefully altered the context of my post which originally had a link to make it look as though there was no link, and then made the claim that the post needed a link. What you did is unethical and against the forum rules.

👆 Some of these posts are absurd. "The sun rose in the East this morning!" Link? "The sky is blue!" Link? "Puppies grow into dogs!" Link? There are some events happening in the world that are so well covered by the media that you'd have be be living under a rock not to notice them. Like the UK police tossing people into jail for mean tweets and social media posts. Here. Pull yourself out from under the rock and look around. https://lordslibrary.parliament.uk/select-communications-offences-and-concerns-over-free-speech/

It must be a psychological burden to carry so much hatred for the Palestinians. Oct 7 happened as a result of Israeli oppression on Palestinians that began during the 1947-1948 Nakba where ~750,000 Palestinians were forcefully cleared from their villages (their land) by Haganah, Irgun, and Lehi Israelis and relocated to Gaza. Many of those clearing operations ended in massacres and around 500 Arab villages were cleared and destroyed. Gaza is a walled concentration camp and Gazan Palestinians are an occupied population. But? Nobody studies history or the regional geopolitical realities in Israeli occupied Palestine. Most Westerns have been brought up on a steady diet of anti-Arab, anti-Palestinian rhetoric. The result - most Westerners wish to see all Palestinians crushed and deposed. People hating average Palestinians. People hating average Israelis. Hate, hate, hate. Hatred is endemic. No. As I Buddhist I don't understand that hatred nor do I accept it. Again - it must be a hell of a weight to carry, all of that hatred.

Look in a mirror first. And then? No. People know if they are fit or not. Why be an ass?

Oh please. The power doesn't belong to the people. It belongs to the corporate executives, billionaire owners of corporations, and the politicians who work for them.

How about the same place that they want all of the Palestinians to relocate to?

Hamas Refuses Disarmament Pledge,Seeks 5-Year Gaza Rebuild Truce What "pledge." Neither Hamas or Israel signed anything. The only people signing pledges was Trump in a meeting in Egypt where neither Hamas or Israel attended. How about both Hamas and Israel disarm?

Like Putin is cleaning up Ukraine? "Putin invaded Ukraine! Aggghhhh!!! Evil Putin." "Trump invades Venezuela! Peace prize for the Don!!!" "Putin bombs Kiev! Agggghhhh!!! Evil Putin." "Trump bombs Iran! Peace prize for the Don!!!" It's a truly screwed up world.

The dictator's wife and kids?

Nope. I have tinnitus from concerts and from large caliber machine gun fire. You get used to it unless you concentrate on it.

My kid works about 60+ hours a week. 10 hour days and often 7 days a week. But? He's young, he's in sales, and he makes some pretty good jack ฿฿฿฿฿.

Like the lawfare witch-hunt waged against Trump? That witch-hunt. I'm no fan of Trump, but I'm even less of a fan of lawfare.

Two-tiered justice.

Trump and Putin Plan Budapest Summit on Ukraine US President Donald Trump announced a planned summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Budapest, Hungary, to discuss ending the Ukraine-Russia war, following a productive two-and-a-half-hour phone call. The call, initiated by Russia, covered peace negotiations, trade prospects, and Middle East achievements. Trump described the conversation as “highly informative” and noted Putin’s support for the summit. Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban, a key ally of both leaders, confirmed preparations for the peace summit, emphasizing Hungary’s role in fostering dialogue. Trump will meet Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in the Oval Office to review the Putin call and discuss air defense and long-range missile strategies, including potential US-supplied Tomahawk missiles. Putin expressed concerns about these missiles, warning of strained US-Russia relations, though Trump downplayed the topic. Secretary of State Marco Rubio will lead a delegation to meet Russian officials soon, with details pending. The summit follows Trump’s recent meeting with Putin in Anchorage and reflects his push for diplomacy over sanctions, despite congressional pressure for punitive measures against Russia. The summit aims to address the ongoing Ukraine conflict, with Trump optimistic about achieving peace. Discussions also highlighted AI-driven economic projections, estimating a $15 trillion global GDP boost by 2030, underscoring the stakes of resolving the war. Orban’s involvement signals Hungary’s growing role as a neutral mediator in global conflicts. Key Takeaways: Budapest Summit: Trump and Putin to discuss Ukraine peace in Hungary.
