yes i concede your point and if this was a competition (everything is a competition!) it would look like this:

babun1024 - 1
Ferdia - 0

note: for anyone reading this, I am happy to play such competitions / scoring with anyone (with the caveat being your able to acknowledge a point).

This idiot is doing everything to ruin US/EU banking system and to sabotage peace talks with Trump.

Ye, he is a warmonger, no disagreement from me. a liar (too many examples) a thief (the open letter he arranged re: Hunter Biden laptop was russia hoax) and a warmonger.
its funny, some fruitcakes in the US point at trump as being a liar and god knows what else, but it was Blinken that had that open letter from the intelligence community written.
the US is really good, throughout their society, of projecting.

All politicians are liars and we all know they have a money laundering scheme in Ukraine but I thought the USA had mechanisms to stop madness = discrediting the financial institutions in the west. The basics of economy is that your assets are safe. Why should anyone buy bonds again? Saudi - Arabia has already started the dedollarization process. I think people don't realize the long-term effect of the aforementioned action. In short, dollar and euro will lose a LOT of value over the next years to come.

also agreed. i am brief here as we already went over this, it will take a few years for ppl to catch up with these facts and by then it will be too late. total stupidity, like drinking a tea while falling off a cliff.

Haha, i just remember you saying i was wrong from the get go and i was adamant that they would make a huge impact. I honestly thought they wouldnt be relegated to shooting down drones and that they'd be shooting down Sukhois.

Boy was i wrong about that

All we have are opinions, sometimes we are right sometimes we are not right. I watched a video the other day where the guy being interviewed said "you cannot predict what will happen, you can guess, make an educated guess, but, when it comes to war, do everything else first, because you simply cannot predict the final destination".

im browing the old posts now, looking for nuggets, this one struck me :

Look, most of us live in the western world, and the worlds policeman has been very good to us, but this war in ukraine did not occur because putin wanted to expand russia/imperialism or w/e. It happened after the US destabilized the status quo, after russian repeated warnings. The US is busy destabilizing georgia and as you probably know they are in alot of other places too.

Your right, Russia should not have invaded Ukraine, they should have done a better job replacing the existing ukrainian government (like the US did) and replaced it with a pro russian one, except russia is not as good at that as the US is.


yes, i retain my pet peeve of US interfering in Georgia (what they have been doing every day in Georgia for years now).

Ukrainian MP Solomiya Bobrovska claims that the director of Ukraine’s National History Museum, Fedir Androshchuk, has not returned from a business trip in the EU which was supposed to end on Sep 20.

Androshchuk has now issued a statement saying that as a citizen of Sweden he was in fact on a business trip in Ukraine, while Sweden is his real home.

Makes one wonder where is the real home of the ethnonationalist version of Ukrainian history the museum was promoting with him in charge.

Poroshenko's son is dodging military calls as well. Some higher-ups resigned or escaped. Ex minister Kuleba has got a position at Harward :D
