What's wrong with Putin?

What the hell is wrong with Putin? I really hope he will come to his senses and stop this bullshit. And realizes that he's going to start a world war if he doesn't stop. I'm very sad and absolutely shocked at the moment! Why don't people learn from their mistakes in the past?????

You are excited for extra people to die?
You once went on and on about how we don't need more war. It seems you don't actually feel that way.

Did you know that over 14,000 people have been killed in Ukraine since 2014? Where is your outrage? Or is killing ok whenever the US and/or our allies are doing it?

It was a mistake for the US to orchestrate a coup in Ukraine in the first place because we didn't like their elected leader.
In case you missed that discussion, there was a leaked phone call by Victoria Nuland about who the US was going to put in charge after our coup, and I even posted a video of Obama admitting it (though that video has since been deleted and I haven't been able to locate it again).

I mean, unfortunately there are plenty of wars on earth. Even one is too much. But this guy risks that the global powers start to play with their "toys" against each other. And we all know what the result would be. Hope the NATO stays with their statement not to get involved into that.

Why is this Putin's fault for defending Russians and not the US's for orchestrating a coup to overthrow the elected Ukrainian President with a corrupt Washington lackey?

He had his entire presidency to negotiate with Russia. But as usual, the US doesn't negotiate with its enemies.

Quote:
It’s a large conflict already,” Biden said when asked if he was communicating with the Kremlin to keep the situation from “spiraling.” “The way we’re going to ensure it’s not going to spiral into a larger conflict is by providing all the forces needed in the Eastern European nations that are members of NATO.”

Just to clarify so there's no 'unintentional' confusion or misunderstanding. 14000 People = 6500 members of 'armed groups', 4400 Ukrainian forces and 3106 civilians not including the 298 killed onboard Flight MH17
81% killed in separatist controlled areas. 16% killed in government controlled areas.

It's like if we decided to invade Mexico , that must be why Trump is cheering Putin on . If Trump were President he would be in Kiev right now welcoming Putin , asking him if he likes his massages with or without happy endings .

trump would of put putins ass in check for this if he was in office. You guys are smoking crack if you think trump would of let this happen with welcoming arms.
But you guys should focus on biden hes the one in office we will see what happens he could talk putin down with our allies or start ww3.
Keep in mind china is making moves as well to take Taiwan over. Shit is about to get messy.

This is you ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ This is Trump:
Quote:
“I said, ‘How smart is that?’ He’s going to go in and be a peacekeeper,” Trump remarked.
It’s the second time that the former commander-in-chief has called Putin “smart” this week. During a radio interview on “The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show” on Tuesday, Trump described Putin’s strategy of recognizing Ukraine’s breakaway regions as a pretext to sending in troops as “genius"

He doesn't support China bruv. He's acknowledging that if you wanna be a psychopath dictator that takes over countries that his strategy is effective. Which it is. It's evil and I don't agree with it. But it's been pretty fuckin effective. That's why there is the threat of war.
All due respect, you got no f***in' idea what it's like to be Number One. Every decision you make affects every facet of every other f***in' thing. It's too much to deal with almost. And in the end you're completely alone with it all.
I guess the fundamental question is this; will this situation escalate into war? And I hope it won't; not at all. But until this situation is de-escalated it's going to be hard to prove it won't evolve into war

What's wrong with calling Putin smart? It doesn't necessarily mean Trump agrees with Putin's actions. 
"Fal, you're supposed to make believe people in Crimea think the election was rigged in spite of polls showing otherwise" "Fal, you're supposed to make believe Trump agrees with Putin just because he called him smart" "Fal, you're supposed to make believe the whole world likes US imperialism everywhere, in spite of many countries fighting it"
Sorry, I'm not into make believe.

I spoke with many Crimean Tatars, who were more than happy to share their dislike of Russians, but who told me the election results were similar to what they expected. They know the people they live near.
As I've already shown, even the majority of Ukrainians in Crimea believe the election results.

Does anyone actually believe someone so blatantly biased as Fal is going to accurately describe opinions only he heard that don’t agree with his own? The dude can’t even accurately represent words other people post here that he doesn’t agree with. He is the king of misrepresenting others. Does it all the time.

There were allot of people happy to be Russian citizens at first but Russia is a police state , and now Crimea is police state . They were hoping for a return to the glory days but instead they ended up with a bridge so they could be used as part of the invasion . Even if Fal is telling the truth , seems really irrelevant at this point . He probably couldn't even travel there now and likely will never be able to again .

I think it's extremely important to get the story from both sides. Like any problem if you don't take the other sides point of view into account it's likely the problem won't be resolved and it'll just be one side bullying the other.
If the story turns out to be false the only way to get to that point is by chewing through the details.
I'm glad Falcon posts what he posts, if he didn't we'd all be banging the same drum. Same with The Ecstatic's post's, even though I get belted around the ears with some history lessons, I'd rather look stupid and gain insight rather than maintain an idea that's false.
So far all I've heard on the tv is Russian aggression blah blah blah with very little commentary on why the situation is the way it is.
Do I think Putin's a cunt, yes I do, but I'd like to understand the reasons behind why he feels the need to act like such a cunt.

If i were your neighbor and I just walked into your front yard and punched you in the face would you care about my reason ? If I stayed on my side of the fence and verbally harassed you and expressed my displeasure with your silly Australian accent you might be inclined to figure out what my problem is but if I cross your property line and assault you , I would argue my reasoning is irrelevant .

Russia has been cut off from the international banking clearing house swift.
The Russian people have to suffer until they become responsible world citizens and remove the dictator and this is a good start.

RT is a reliable source if you want to know what lies the Russian government is spewing. I’m not even saying most of their reporting is false, but I would not trust a single word they say concerning the current situation. They are in propaganda overdrive right now.

That may be the case and if so it shouldn't be too difficult to work it out.
I saw a news article from RT pop up last night saying this
Quote:
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said on Friday that he was ready to sit down for talks with Russia in order to end hostilities between the countries. The same day, Peskov told reporters that Moscow was ready to hold talks in Minsk, Belarus. He later claimed that the Ukrainian side first offered to move the meeting to Warsaw, Poland, and then stopped responding.
That's not what the news here is saying.

Hehehe when I returned from Canada I was asked what stood out to me, I said "How terrible my vocabulary was"
From what I can see Putin has been bleating about NATO's expansion for a long time and nobody paid any attention. Putin has your attention, my attention, the whole worlds attention now.
Somebody will have to blink first to resolve this, I can't see Putin blinking any time soon.
So what's the next step then?

Does the western media show troops surrendering? Not as far as I have seen. All I've seen so far is how well the Ukrainians are doing which sounds to me like a load of crap. Asking the public to make molotov cocktails doesn't sound like winning to me. If that's the case how many more people have to die before negotiations start?

Go to Twitter and search for “dead Russians” and Russian POWs. Lots of Russian equipment burned as well.
I think the best clue that Russia isn’t doing well is that there is almost no involvement of Russian fighters. I think it’s pretty clear that Russia has not been able to neutralize Ukraine’s anti-aircraft defenses. It also looks like there is activity in the same locations day after day.
Some of this stuff is Ukrainian disinfo, but this is war and disinfo is a legitimate tactic. If you support Ukraine then don’t disseminate Russian propaganda, but don’t feel bad if you help Ukraine spread theirs

I don't have Twitter or any social media.
Looks to me like Russia isn't targeting civilian buildings, even though some have been hit. I've seen the same burnt out truck about 50 times.
There was footage on the tv yesterday of a Russian tank driving straight over a civilian car which was sickening.

Yep , he's the worlds biggest Karen , how do you think non nato countries are feeling now ? No one was attacking Russia . He's also threatening Finland with military action , a country that's been peaceful for 100 years . But hey he's mad , and short , so if he invaded them too . I guess it's just our fault for not taking his Karen rants seriously.

Any nation-state with some level of involvement in engaging in total propaganda right now. Between this, and the general fog of war, I see no reason to believe any specifics coming out unless they are from a highly trusted source with boots on the ground. I also don't see much benefit in immersing myself in "both sides" propaganda as some flawed exercise in being impartial. 'Propaganda: The Formation of Men's Attitude' is a highly recommended read. Propaganda is more subtle than we tend to think, but it is effective if we don't actively guard against it. That doesn't mean to bury our heads in the sand, but we should recognize state propaganda for what it is and avoid engaging with it.
But all geopolitical jostling aside, one thing seems very clear here: the Russian state is the military aggressor in the immediate conflict. I think we need to draw a very clear line in the sand here - offensive military action is almost never justifiable, and should never be given the benefit of the doubt.

Let's be clear here, all I'm saying is that I want to look at both sides 'stories' as it's obvious there is propaganda coming from both sides.
Should Zelensky lead more people to their death or consider negotiating? I'm not arguing that Putin is the aggressor but that DOES NOT mean Zelensky should keep throwing humans at the problem if he is outgunned. That's the actions of someone acting irresponsibly.

Exactly. And there were supposed to be 13 soldiers on that island and there are at least 20 soldiers in the bus in that RT video claiming they are from the island.

I’m not saying Ukraine isn’t exaggerating their success. But there are just too many clues that Russia is having a very difficult time. The past three nights the same airfield has been lit up with explosions. Either the Russians are still trying to take it, or the Ukrainians are bombing the occupiers repeatedly.

The problem is the ridiculous notion that Ukraine would be become a NATO member and allow Western forces to park military, etc., on the Russian border. This is the West's fault. How did Russian missiles in Cuba work out? Ukraine a neutral buffer. NATO is breaking their commitment to not spread east. If not, then war. Cha-ching!

You must be American because your geographical knowledge is horrible. Your historical knowledge is terrible as well. There was no commitment to not expand NATO. There was an agreement that Russia would respect Ukraine’s sovereignty.
There are already two NATO countries that directly border Russia. Latvia and Estonia.

I admit ignorance, and going by John Mearsheimer's 2015 lecture.
youtube.com/watch?v=JrMiSQAGOS4
It also appears NATO's commitment is a matter of opinion. https://www.strategic-culture.org/news/2018/01/09/broken-promise-nato-expansion-and-end-cold-war/
"Some have tried to debunk the view that the West implicitly or explicitly promised Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev that NATO would not expand east after German reunification and dissolution of the Warsaw Pact). These claims are misleading and obfuscate the historical record of at least a clear understanding, if not promise that there should be no NATO expansion eastward in any way, shape or form. At the very least the West made a implied commitment not to expand NATO east. It is more precise to say, however, that the West gave an explicit verbal, that is, unwritten guarantee not to expand NATO beyond a united Germany; something both sides understood. This broken promise or understanding and the expansion of NATO to Russia’s borders has led now to the misnamed ‘new cold war.’"

Russia won’t touch a NATO country. If Ukraine were part of NATO they wouldn’t be invaded. Ukraine has the right to ally with whomever it wishes.
Despite predictions that there would be heavy fighting overnight, not much has happened. A lot of reports that Russian soldiers are demoralized and cut off from supply lines. Ukrainian citizens are filling balloons with paint and coating windshields so heavily that vehicles cannot be driven due to no visibility.

When one's means are severely limited relative to an aggressor such that a decisive counteroffensive could not reasonably be struck, exacting a high price as a deterrent to further attack is a legitimate defensive strategy. After all, with the advantages inherent in defense, it may well be that the invader is also incapable of delivering a decisive victory with available resources or ultimately unwilling to pay the cost in personnel and material.

The street battles are gruesome. This is extremely graphic. Putin is a psychopath. Ukraine says 4300 Russian soldiers have died in the invasion. Ukraine probably similar. Dozens if not hundreds died in this fight today

Remember we played a game to see if RT was more reliable than western media, and no one, including yourself, was able to find a single lie by RT? Let's see if you can find one now since you just made the claim. Source, or make believe?

Informative on the strategic implications including why Baltic states are not much of a NATO threat compared to Ukraine. Not much to say there but much on Ukraine, the North Europian Plain, resources, etc. Large gas resources in Ukraine.

I got notified that a couple people on these boards sent me PMs, and I had to login to read them, and so I got sucked back in one last time. The emails were very appreciative of the information I've shared, by people I haven't see here, but since I'm here, I'll reply to just a few more posts.

I've shown evidence again and again that you're make believing (that's polite for you're lying), and you've yet to provide any evidence that shows I've been wrong about anything other than you declaring yourself right. Now that you think I've left, you hurl insults, but still can't back them up. Since you think insults work, I'll try using you're own logic against you - "You're a double defeated man!" Ya, pretty dumb, I know, but I'm stepping down to your level.

koods said: I’m not saying Ukraine isn’t exaggerating their success. But there are just too many clues that Russia is having a very difficult time.
Here's my guess. Russia gave Ukraine's military a pretty good pounding the first day. Zelensky then said he was ready to talk to Putin, but quickly changed his mind (I'm suspect the Biden administration talked him out of it). Zelensky then asked his civilian population to fight Russia. We know from the initial attack that Russia tried very hard to minimize civilian casualties, but came under attack from Ukraine's civilian population (which explains why Russia is killing civilians). Zelensky not only handed out thousands of guns to civilians, but he also released prisoners to fight against Russia. Russia had little choice but to fight the civilian population. A huge win for America, and a big loss for Russia and the Ukrainian civilian population.
Macron agreed to talk with Putin (since the US and Ukraine were too chicken-shit), and Putin said he only wanted three things: the recognition of Russian sovereignty over Crimea, the fulfillment of the tasks of demilitarizing and denazifying the Ukrainian state, and ensuring its neutral status.
He didn't ask for Ukraine (which he doesn't want), and he didn't even ask for Donbas. Should be very easy to end the war.
But I doubt the US will give up on its ambition to control Crimea (which the Crimean people will never give back to Ukraine).

I mean Crimea has, what, 80% of the Ukranian's deep sea oil that would otherwise be in their exclusive economic zone.


Without Crimea, Ukraine is a poor eastern block nation and Russia maintains its monopoly over Europe's fossil fuels, solidifying Putin's grasp on power and control for the next decade before everything comes to a head again due to Russia's shit population demographics.
With Crimea, Ukraine becomes western Europe's first loyal petrostate and Russia's GDP (and therfore power) diminishes precipitously until their population demographics cause complete collapse in 20-30 years.
Crimea is really the only thing that actually makes a difference here. And that is why Putin is flexing nuke's over it.

I see him breathe for air more strenuously than is common, microexpressions of feeling quit bad whichhe supresses - my guess is that he has Covid or other illnes that has him out of breath and that if he were to not put up a presentable face for the camera, that he would appear quite ill.
I think he has Covid, hopped up on the best meds to keep him going.

Justice Department launches plan to go after billionaire Russian oligarchs and their assets
The announcement comes after President Joe Biden singled out Russian financial and political elites in his State of the Union speech Tuesday night, saying, "Tonight I say to the Russian oligarchs and corrupt leaders who have bilked billions of dollars off this violent regime: 'No more.'"
"We are joining with our European allies to find and seize your yachts, your luxury apartments, your private jets,” Biden said. “We are coming for your ill-begotten gains."

Ukraine is not dependant on future Black Sea oil resources for it's economy. It is rich in many other raw materials and has fertile soil enabling it to export vast quantities of grain. Regarding Russia having a monopoly of Europe's fossil fuels, you obviously are not aware that the UK and Norway are significant producers of natural gas and oil and both have untapped reserves to exploit in the future. One of the benefits to the USA of this war is the shut down of the Nordstream 2 pipeline from Russia to Germany. The USA can now export it's fracked gas to Europe at twice the price of the Russian gas.

Trump sent ground forces into Syria, and after we used those troops to secure territory held by ISIS, we unilaterally pulled out and surrendered it all to Russia.

Also Trump literally tried to pull out of NATO. The House had to pass the NATO Support Act, confirming Congress' support for NATO and prohibiting Trump from potentially withdrawing from NATO. He cited it as a "bad deal, very unfair" when our partnership with the west is what allows us to make deals in the first place.
Trump is incredibly short sighted, meanwhile Putin and many other world leaders who are playing this game with us (the West) are thinking on the scale of decades. Easy to outplay someone in Chess who doesn't think more than 1 step ahead.
