He does not understand but he is not from that part of the world. you explained it once, he does not agree, there is no need to reiterate your position, i mean its not as if the US would be stupid enough to give Japan nukes so its really an irrelevant point.
but Japan probably will get nukes in my life time, or well, pro japanse forces will have nukes permanently in the region just in case *wink wink*


Anyways good luck for ladder soon.
My last ladder as of now, probably not play the next ladder since my whole region is going to open up. So I will need to travel and work . :P

It's difficult to debate with a smart person. It is impossible to debate with a ............... you fill in the blank person.
You get what I mean. B)

Zelensky rules out territory deal with Putin in BBC interview

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-64662184

I guess he's right:

"Russian attacks are already happening from several directions"
=> spring offensive had already begun

"Of course, modern weapons speed up peace. Weapons are the only language Russia understands"
=> So true !

"We chose this path. We want security guarantees. Any territorial compromises would make us weaker as a state."
=> Putin is not interested in some regions of Ukraine. He wants the whole thing, and for the people to be submissive to Moscow.

It is normal in times of war for the opposing sides to cease all trade. I would have though that all trade between the US and Russia would have ceased by now. I wonder if someone can do a bit of research to determine what trade if any still occurs between the US and Russia, or via their proxies, at this time. The purpose of sanctions, officially, is to isolate the individual or state in order to encourage them to change their ways.

As this site is pro western i should be able to post pro western narratives without sanction. yes double standards but then i never said we lived in a fair world:

here is a Yale study on Over 1,000 Companies Have Curtailed Operations in Russia—But Some Remain : https://som.yale.edu/story/2022/over-1000-companies-have-curtailed-operations-russia-some-remain

Since the invasion of Ukraine began, we have been tracking the responses of well over 1,200 companies, and counting. Over 1,000 companies have publicly announced they are voluntarily curtailing operations in Russia to some degree beyond the bare minimum legally required by international sanctions — but some companies have continued to operate in Russia undeterred. Originally a simple "withdraw" vs. "remain" list, our list of companies now consists of five categories—graded on a school-style letter grade scale of A-F for the completeness of withdrawal. The list below is updated continuously by Jeffrey Sonnenfeld and his team of experts, research fellows, and students at the Yale Chief Executive Leadership Institute to reflect new announcements from companies in as close to real time as possible. Our list has already garnered extensive coverage for its role in helping catalyze the mass corporate exodus from Russia. When this list was first published the week of February 28, only several dozen companies had announced their departure. We are humbled that our list helped galvanize nearly 1,000 companies to withdraw in the two months since.

its quite liberating to post links haha. Also yes, I accept this is an example of woke culture and nationalist rhetoric in action but this is a war and Russia is the enemy. do not buy or sell russian goods or services as in doing so you are supporting the russian war.

so it begins...

so lets boycott:

Hard Rock Cafe Blizzard
Steam
and
Carlsberg

all of whom still operate in Russia. I removed Hard Rock Cafe as its easier on a gaming forum to include Blizzard. But Riot Gaming is there too.

how am I doing so far ? ill try to limit these pro US rhetoric posts to 100. so this is 1/100.

Oil and Gas . but let me do some research too. I am sure some US companies are still buying Russian Gas or via their proxies.
But I think US will sanction companies from other countries if they do no ?

But they did allow India and China to continue to buy their energy products at whatever price Russia offer.

What's happening in South Africa ? I think the article is pretty decent, btw the sun is also adding that "document were put left on the balcony".

About this: i noticed the link to the sun posted by offvoid had sexual content, it's too late for us all who quoted it maybe, or it will be only the fault of the original poster ?
