Got any more of this stuff?

I don't know where this peculiar feeling is coming from..
Is it because of the manly gaze of my hero? Or is it maybe because of that chest hair?

I had difficulties performing on my marital duties because I couldn't get these images out of my head. Been staring at them in awe.
The precise movement, the fortitude, the elegance.. the beauty. Intoxicating!

ehhh, where was I?
Right!

The real reasons for conflict

In short, it was not the West’s aggressive pursuit of an anti-Russian agenda, but rather the weakness and lack of strategic clarity it communicated at every turn post-Cold War that encouraged Moscow’s revisionism. It was not the West’s alleged geostrategic assertiveness, but its timidity each time Putin used military power to occupy territory—first in Georgia in 2008, then in Ukraine in 2014, in Syria in 2015, and finally in Ukraine for the second time in 2022—that set the stage for the unfolding tragedy in Eastern Europe.

If the West is responsible for the Russian invasion of Ukraine, it’s not for the reasons its critics now propound, i.e., because of its allegedly aggressive behavior, but because of its inability to grasp the basics of power politics as it swam into an ideological soup of its own making that bore no resemblance to how the world really works.

The West is poised to communicate weakness once again, only this time unabashedly and without pretense that it is doing so because of norms or the “rules-based international order.” If the final peace agreement on Ukraine simply ratifies the status quo on the battlefield, the Trump administration will hand Moscow a major win, in effect undoing the consequences of the Western victory in the Cold War.

It will communicate in no uncertain terms that Russia can structure its sphere of domination in Eastern Europe at will, and that the West will accept Moscow’s role as an imperial power shaping the future of Europe as a whole. And as the tragedy of Ukraine reaches its denouement, it should be said that the culpability for defeat in Ukraine—a defeat that will effectively reverse the gains made by the West in the twentieth century—falls in part on the United States, through the diffident “escalation management” policy in Ukraine pursued by the Biden administration.

The United States’ key allies in Europe are also to blame, especially Germany, the very country that benefitted most from the collapse of the iron curtain, and then proceeded to do more than any other European power to bring Russia back into European politics through the nefarious Nord Stream energy deals and Berlin’s policy of engaging with Moscow irrespective of Washington’s warnings—including from the first Trump administration—and above the heads of the countries threatened by Russia along the Eastern flank of NATO.

So - we can both agree on that the West had made crucial mistakes.
Friends again? If not yet - watch the clip above for a while. It'll loosen u up pal =)

everyone else just thinks its funny

Yes, conspiracy everywhere Mr. Covid

Unfortuneatly click metric isnt a deciding factor of what's real and what's not.

But that's not for u I assume. Dry factual reporting is far less fun than REEEEE stuff at YT.
To each their own I guess

Of course, I do, here's some more:

The labs existed. This is not controversial. The U.S. funded Ukrainian biological laboratories through Pentagon programs, just like they funded labs in other countries. It is normal for the US to do this. The labs handled dangerous pathogens; again, this is not controversial. They worked with bacteria and viruses that can be hazardous. During a 2022 Senate hearing, Victoria Nuland acknowledged that Ukraine had “biological research facilities.” Her testimony became a focal point of the debate because it confirmed the existence of the facilities while leaving disagreement over the nature and purpose of the work being conducted. In 2026, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard released material stating that the United States had funded more than 120 biological laboratories in over 30 countries, including Ukraine, reinforcing that overseas Pentagon-backed biological research programs were extensive.

Someone somewhere in the US establishment thought this was an issue so they denied they exist, which is pretty dumb, noting all of the information about them was already well established. The fact that we have some people denying their existence when all that info is freely available is really...special.

This will get me through the week!
thx friend!

Exactly how many of these 120 biolabs were in Ukraine?

Whatever you please

Yawn. Yes. Usaid has labs in other countries to study the spread of diseases.

* See what happens when detection stations across the workd are eliminated?

Still at it while you know I already addressed all of this. What's wrong with you.

I posted above that NATO was eying Ukraine immediately after the breakup of the USSR. With the official NATO website linked. That's the official NATO website my man

In another post (above) I've shown that Russia protested avery round of NATO expansion. Russia was in crisis following the breakup so the only thing they did was protest. What did NATO do? Expand round after round East these are the facts. The facts my man.

Not only did they kick their opponent when they were down but they broke promises not to. This is not done in foreign affairs between countries let alone between nuclear superpowers unless you feel like morally superior shit lords like NATO of course. The good guys can risk another world war that's how gooooood they are. Yes!

@bold that I quoted

--> I've posted numerous times the outcome of the 2008 NATO summit where they welcomed Georgia and Ukraine. The same year Putin announced massive increases in defense spending and the war in Georgia broke out. Can you do the simple math? Seriously.

And then Russia took Crimea for the same reasons, do you really believe they would just allow their main geo-political rival to take over their naval base at Sevastopol and take Crimea that had always been Russian and the rest of Ukraine? Can you name any country that would allow that? Even the poorest African countries kill each other over territory or resources, to thnk in terms like "Ukraine has the right to do this" or "we the good guys" show that you have no idea how these things work in the real world.

Sorry my man you're a keybord NAFO warrior shilling for NATO and you don't even realize that the side you're shilling for has triggered a conflict that has the potential to spark the next world war.
