Ukraine war Bullshit.

Russia is pushing up the bank of the marshland that was a reservoir of the Dniper, before the damn/powerplant was destroyed.

Between 2018 and 2024, U.S. Congress banned the organization from receiving funding, arms, training, and other forms of support due to its documented neo-Nazi affiliations and concerns regarding human rights violations.

Well, I suppose it shouldn’t really be such a big deal - given our track record since forever ago.
Been thinking on this one a while, I am starting to question if we flipped him and used him as an asset, but for him to infiltrate it need to look/seem like he was really an enemy. IDK just a thought.

To me this is one of the most fascinating aspects of this conflict.

Prior to the Ukraine war it was very well established that Ukraine had a systemic issue with ultra-nationalism inside and outside of the AFU, this was well reported on in western media. Just search "Ukraine ultra-nationalism" in Google with your search set for entries prior to 2022 - literally hundreds of articles will come up. It was such a problem that Congress banned armed shipments to Azov, even though we arm despotic regimes and literal terrorists elsewhere in the world.

Since the invasion began, you mostly get articles now white-washing the banderaites and ultra-nationalists of Ukraine. The media, essentially acting as stenographers for the government, know that admitting what was once common knowledge would be counter effective to the pro war propaganda, and thus the white washing began.

It's really fascinating to watch it all go down, and to see people eat up the blatantly obvious propaganda.
 
If you're on TV with a coat and tie or have a decent rack most of America will believe anything you say, literally anything.

When someone doubts it they are labeled as trouble makers and the sheep nod their heads in unison.

One sheep spews a naritive and it becomes reality in the rests simple minds because it is more convenient than actual thought.

It's the Democrat default mindset.

You had me at "decent rack".

We have a rich history of whitewashing our lies, while at the same time presuming to posture from a moral high ground in whatever we do.

All in the name of furthering our “interests,” exercises in failure and moral bankruptcy they may be.

It's incredible how such narratives can do a 180 shift on a dime, and people just go along with it...

Looks like Rheinmetall is "all in"................


Can't imagine they are on the side of the room that wants the war to stop.

Europe is going broke funding this war.

Didn't they (Germany) recently announce that the money for entitlements will be running out soon, if they don't import a bunch of migrant workers?

France is also facing a huge debt crisis that may require a bailout form the IMF, which could be disastrous for the EU.

Interesting times...
 
New possible supervillain plan...
The USA is goading Europe to be all in on this war so they totally collapse and become a failed 3rd world continent and just have to lick the boots of the USA and do anything they are told and Trump gets is payback for them making fun of him...

The EU is already a vassal state of the US, I don't think their collapse would be of much benefit to us

"which could be disastrous for the EU"........

I'd say "and, the problem ?". But there's always the risk that I misunderstand the spirit in which you made your comment. Point being (from my humble opinion) is that the EU as a "governing body", needs to be completely dis-banded. I don't want to see any European country suffer any negative effects, but every last one of them would be a lot better off if the EU (as a governing body) dried up and blew away.

I agree.

I don't care at all about the EU and it's self immolation.

I believe it's a failed organization that will crumble sooner or later, and I couldn't care less than it does.

Yep, my only concern is how much fallout/collateral damage the individual "member" contries might suffer from if/when it happens.
