Since Russia and China is constantly being accused of election interference, the latest by Blinkered after his recent visit, maybe that small Indian chap could ask VP and XJP for assistance and in return, UK would lift its sanctions? 😂 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do not eat McDonald's....... Please explain exactly who did save Europe from Germany in WW2. Are you thinking of Russia who was an ally of Germany until July 1941 until they were supplied by the USA and the UK both directly into Russia by the USA and via Murmansk by the UK and the arctic convoys. How many thousands of Merchant Navy and Royal Navy sailors died, frozen to death, helping Russia? They were also supplied with lease/lend through the middle east countries into southern Russia. The Russians also invaded Poland and Finland and those countries were divided up between Russia and Germany. How about when the Russians were advancing across Poland towards the end of WW2, yet stopped before they got to Warsaw so that the Germans could slaughter the Hewish resistance? Did you also "forget" that their version of saving Europe meant invading countries and not leaving them, Remind us all what happened in Hungary in 1956 when the Hungarians wanted their freedom from Russia. How about Berlin and the Berlin Wall, or the airlift in 1948 when the Allied Air forces kept the West Berliners alive through the air corridors, and how allied aircraft were shot down by Russian fighter aircraft, even though the Russians and the allies were supposedly on the same side? Do you still think that they were the "nice guys"? Edited May 6 by billd766 added extra text 2 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever Russia did after WW2 is irrelevant to them defeating the Germans, as is what they did before Germany invaded them. What Russia did, before, during and after WW2 DOES have a direct bearing is and does today. I used to talk to some of my uncles and their friends, even some of my school teachers when I was young, who were actually in the military during WW2, so NO, I was not indoctrinated. Plus over the years I also did research as well. Yes the Russians did well, once lease/lend supplies of tanks, all sorts of vehicles, over 4 million tons of supplies including fuel, food, medical supplies and even aircraft reached them. They were also aided by the military genius of Adolf Hitler who sent his armies equipped for summer warfare and left them to freeze in the Russian winter. At Stalingrad, Goering promised that he could supply the German 6th army by air alone. He failed. I guess that you must have missed the bit where the allies got rid of the Germans and the Italians from North Africa, Sicily, Italy, Greece, Yugoslavia, Albania, France, Holland, Belgium, Luxembourg, Denmark, Norway and a good sized chunk of Germany. All of which IIRC my geography lessons from school are also part of Europe, as is a part of Russia, East of the Ural mountains.

For it to even be suggested implies the lunatics have escaped and taken over NATO command, IMO. Correct. The world is now on the verge of a catastrophe and the idiots in charge of France, the U.K., and the US keep upping the ante. Putin is not joking. NATO forces in Ukraine = WW III. It’s just that simple. Russia would see any such escalation as an existential threat and they will respond . For Europe and NATO, none of this is really necessary. The survival of Ukraine is not an existential matter for the for any NATO nation. Russia has no interest in reestablishing the old Soviet Union. They went bankrupt trying to hold it together years ago, and they won’t repeat that mistake. So, why all the interest in starting WW III? Western leaders have been brainwashed by the spin doctors. The military industrial complex is huge. It profits enormously from defense spending and they have good spin doctors. They have a good propaganda machine. And the politicians are well rewarded. And so we hear tales of Russian aggression and its desire to conquer Europe. Russia is demonized. Putin is demonized. Of course, no one asks the voters in Europe or the US if they are ready to sacrifice their remaining time on earth for an unnecessary war so that a small group of people can continue to profit. Most people don’t even realize how close they are to death. This war won’t be another WW III. Once it starts, it’ll be over in a few hours. Maybe here in Thailand we’ll last a little longer.

That leads to a problem with such as medications, and as we do not have an oil refinery any more, no more petrol or diesel. It'll take a while to breed enough horses, though as most people will have died from gang warfare that may not be an insurmountable problem. We'll be able to grow lots of food though, as long as we don't need sprays, which are imported. Never mind, with 30 million or so sheep we shouldn't have a problem with mutton, providing we know a friendly farmer. However, even without the gangs I suspect most of the townies will die off quickly as they likely have no survival skills, and probably can't survive without U Tube telling them how to do stuff without electricity or supermarkets. That pretty much sums up the civilized world at this point. We’re all connected. Without international trade and the flow of money, what then? Imagine someone pulls the plug on all the ATM machines. Imagine there are no more fuel deliveries. Imagine if the electricity doesn’t work. I imagine if people can’t get the medication they need. The typical big city has a three day supply of food. Then what? All because some defense contractors want to sell some more jet airplanes that don’t work most of the time? 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jas007 Posted May 24 Share Posted May 24 In the last few days, a snap election has been announced for the UK in July. The current prime minister doesn’t want to be a “wartime” leader? Something like that. What’s really going on? Is anyone paying attention? European leaders are all sounding like Victoria Nuland. A real nutcase. Russia has made it very clear. Target Russia with missiles and the countries supplying that equipment can expect to be targeted. Military bases and decision making centers will all be fair game. The people of the UK and France? Do they realize what their leaders are up to? I don’t know what military bases those countries have in the area of Ukraine, but the US has bases all over the world. Paris and London are both in Europe and not far from Russia at all. Attack Russia and they will respond. Some people need to wake up. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
