I find it extremely sad that there are people in this world condoning this, calling normal innocent women and children lying dead in a gutter Nazis. How much brainwashing does it take to reach that level and can you not see the hypocrisy? You know who you are. 

Very true.  Thinking back,  how many times we have seen this type of scenario or worse... then the perpetrator was not Russia or China. 

 

We humans have a short and 'selective' memory. 

 

All countries manufacturing heavy weapons and nukes should be ashamed first, before accusing others. 

 

A heavy armoury is not exactly something that takes tender care of fellow beings. 

IMHO

And here we go, I encourage you to watch (again) Nicholas Cage's BEST role/movie ever: Lord of War (2005).

 

The ending scene dialog goes:

 

"And while the biggest arms dealer in the World is your boss,

the President of the United States,

who ships more merchandise in a day than I do in a year,

sometimes it's embarrassing to have his fingerprints on the guns."

 

As for Vladimir Putin's, the next line fits him perfectly:

 

"I would tell you to go to hell,

but I think you're already there."

Before I went to sleep, my wife said to me: This Russia is such a bad country, If Ukraine wants to join Nato, it is their business and freedom, Russia has no right to intervene, this is just an excuse for Russia to invade Ukarine.

So I said nothing, I just went to the kitchen and took a knife to bedside, then I said: Let’s go to sleep.

My wife looked at me with her wide eyes: What the heck are you doing, sleeping with a knife?!?!

I said: No worry, let’s go to sleep. Beside, sleeping with a knife is none of your business and it is my freedom.

My wife said: How can I sleep when you are sleeping with a knife? What if you accidentally cut me?

I said: Well, You don’t even trust your own husband, how can you expect Russia to trust Ukraine? Me sleeping with a knife is like Ukraine joining the Nato.

..........and in the middle of the night the wife got up, shot her husband, four of his nearest relatives and set fire to the house just on the off chance her husband, who never had any intention of harming her, might at sometime need to defend himself from his mental deranged wife...............is that how this little story ended?

Thailands stance has no significance on the the world stage.

 

I screwed up there.

Yeah right; that's why the Men go around shooting and stabbing their Ex's in broad daylight and want to kill anyone that beeps their horn at them on the road !

What are you on about? I know no one that stabs their ex's.

Beeping a horn is confrontation.

Russia is recognizing Taiwan as a "country?"  You'd think this would enrage China.

What are their contributions to the world, since the 2nd half of the 20th century, anyway? Buckwheat? Vodka? What else? 

They are really good at doping athletes...

 

Oh, and bribing international sporting tournament authorities!

Reword that headline.....thailand is on the list of insignificant countries that russia doesn't give a hoot about.

Sadly most countries principles will vanish very quickly as they suffer minor inconvenience form rising petrol prices etc.

Taking all the astronauts up to the ISS since NASA lost the ability to do so. Speaking of which, I wonder what the nationality mix is up there right now ? I cannot be bothered actually Googling it but there could be some interesting conversations up there at the moment.

 

Edit : Ok....I did Google it, currently there are 2 Russian crew and 9 from “unfriendly” countries. Hope none of them are due to return home on a Soyuz soon !

This is the list of countries he'll declare war on later after he invades Moldova and the Baltic states.

I think the demented idiot has got it the wrong way.

Who wants to be friends with a murderer.

[Dexxter]

Australia is a very friendly country, however, we do not include war criminals on our friendship list.

- China wants the whole ASEAN region to itself+Tibet. (No one's talking about China has been doing to Tibet for decades yet it is... disgusting).

- Russia wants to regain control of the former Visegràd block, Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland and Slovakia under their (economic) control.

- Erdogan wants the remaining half of Cyprus, Syria, Georgia and Armenia (to massacre them all) under their control all that while joining the European Union.

- The civilized Western occidental European Union wants the whole of England and Scotland back in the European Union (rightfully so).

- Israel wants the entire Gaza strip for them, eradicate Palestinians until the very last one.

- North Korea leadership dreams of reuniting with South Korea under their terms, their communist biased views of what a society should look like.

- The USA sees their Canadian friendly neighbor to the North as the 52nd state. They often jokingly label Canada as their 52nd state but make no mistakes.

 

Nothing new under the sun.

You're really stretching there.

dependent on Russian weapons/ minerals. Huge surprise is India who should know better

I think you answer is in your first line. 

India is heavily dependent on Russia for its arms supplies. Quoted from wikipedia below

 

The Soviet Union was an important supplier of defence equipment for several decades, and this role has been inherited by the Russian federation. Russia 68%, USA 14% and Israel 7.2% are the major arms suppliers to India (2012-2016), and India and Russia have deepened their Make in India defence manufacturing cooperation by signing agreements for the construction of naval frigates, KA-226T twin-engine utility helicopters (joint venture (JV) to make 60 in Russia and 140 in India), Brahmos cruise missile (JV with 50.5% India and 49.5% Russia) (Dec 2017 update).

If Taiwan are on the list of nations that aren't friendly to Russia won't that upset China? In their view Taiwan isn't a country but part of China.

"Not friendly" could mean those listed are Enemas - sorry, enemies!

Enemas are often used to wash out a stuck turd so maybe that is the correct word when it comes to Putin.

Like the invasion of Iraq, and deaths of over 500,000 civilians, the murder of Gadaffi and collapse of functional law and ider in Libya or assassination of Qasim Sulimali an act of terrorism on foreign soil, or the viral and chemical experimentation on its own population since the 1940s or threats to invade Venezela or Syria or Iran stopped by Putin..

Yes countries with principles like the USA would never engage in torture or renditions ..wake up

[garyk]

Since the US , Europe and others have put extensive sanctions on Russia, and it has caused the latest TOT prediction of tourist arrivals to dry up. I expect Thailand to declare war on any country on the list.
