No need to go back in history, a current ally of Putin who once said when he was president: "He (Putin) just said it’s not Russia. I don't see any reason why it would be....." has exactly the same values. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rudi49jr Posted June 2, 2023 Share Posted June 2, 2023 Swiss Parliament Votes To Block Indirect Arms Exports To Ukraine https://www.rferl.org/a/swiss-parliament-blocks-arms-exports-ukraine/32440097.html The main reason for blocking the indirect arms export to Ukraine is because they are afraid it could jeopardize their ‘neutrality’. Bit hypocritical, isn’t it? I mean, their banks take and guard the money (billions if not trillions of dollars) from every dictator and criminal Tom, Dick and Harry, and they make a sh!tload of money that way. Heaven forbid they should stand the tiniest chance to possibly lose some of that business because they allowed arms exports to Ukraine. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post rabas Posted June 6, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted June 6, 2023 (edited) Alert Reports are coming in that Russia has blown up the Kakhovka dam. Flood levels in Kherson Oblast are rising rapidly and this could cause immense destruction. -- The Inhulets River is now reportedly flowing backwards away from the Dnipro. -- The M14 highway flooded out north of Vesele, Kherson Oblast. -- The Kakhovka HPP is completely destroyed and cannot be restored. -- In Nova Kakhovka, the local zoo was flooded due to the explosion and flooding. All animals died. -- This could impact the #Zaporizhzhya Nuclear Power Plant. I suggest holding a UN vote to remove Russia from the UN Security Council. If the Russian ambassador objects, take him in the bathroom and drown him.

Putin is now bombing Kherson as civilians scramble to save their lives from floods caused by Putin's war crime bombing of Kakhovka Dam, whose reservoir would qualify as the 6th largest lake in continental Europe.

There will be no where for Putin to hide once they quit Crimea, the Russian perceived crowning jewel of their war against Ukraine. All of the Russian population will then realise that all this death, destruction and economic ruin caused by Putin's greed was all for nought and then he will be toast. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
