India said they were ok with Zelensky calling in to the UN Security Council meeting using video tele-conference?  THAT'S IT?!?

Good thing the media is reporting such important news!  :flowstone:

Russia wanted him to show up in person so they could murderize him.

If only you fools would let Putin, Xi, and Trump fight together like theyve been doing in secret against the deep state globalists but without interference from all the no nothing sheeple with their constant nagging the swamp would be drained in no time/ and the deep state would be utterly & completely defeated.  The Golden Age of Men would commence.

The deep state is the bureaucratic apparatus designed to ensure continuity in policy from admin to admin in certain areas, foreign policy in particular.  This seemed really important during the cold war, I guess.

The deep state is the civil service - the professional working class that actually do the functional work of government. Did people in DC hate Trump? Yeah for the most part, but their bosses are political appointees and workers hating their bosses is hardly something unique to government.

My friend works at the state department. After Trump took office, his department operated for almost two years under Obama era directives not because they were trying to undermine the Trump administration, but because nobody in the Trump administration got around to implementing their own policies. Aside from the political bullshit, it is hard to understate how totally incompetent the Trump administration was at managing the day to day operations of the federal government.

Government services and the boring non-political aspects of running the government were practically ignored. Underneath the high profile radical policy changes at various agencies, the government essentially ran on autopilot for four years. Even the lower level political jobs were ignored. My friends dept head, who was an Obama appiointee was fired in the first week, and nobody replaced him for 18 months. Things like consular services were totally ignored. It took like six months to get a passport because of staff attrition.

The BW parkway is a major commuter route between Baltimore and DC that is owned by the National Park service. It fell into such disrepair after Trump took office they had to lower the speed limit due to the pavement falling apart.

https://wamu.org/story/19/04/01/how-did-potholes-on-the-baltimore-washington-parkway-get-this-bad/

Quote:
Gov. Larry Hogan wrote in a letter to the state’s congressional delegation that he wants the state to take over the parkway and finance expansion by adding tolls.

“Either let us have the road, or you guys better get some funding and pressure the administration to get this road fixed, because it’s unacceptable,” Hogan said at a recent news conference.

well, the Ruskies won the war in Syria,
maybe they'll win the war in Ukraine too.

These things rarely end the way everyone expects,
consider what happened in WWII:
Who predicted the Japanese attacking the USA ?
Who foresaw the loss of the British Empire ?
(and the partition of India)
Who knew Hitler had run off with Eva Braun to South America ?

Maybe Putin will become Emperor of Europe after
pledging his allegiance to the Great Tyrant

But Putin's popularity is off the charts since he started blowing people up in Ukraine.

How does that make you feel? Good? Maybe we could post a graph and talk about how blowing people up makes us feel good.


Do you think blowing up people in other countries is what makes US presidents so popular when they start wars abroad?  How does that make you feel?  :flowstone:


I'd say it makes me feel exactly the same way I feel about Russia blowing people up. I don't care for it. Unlike you.

Meh.  The article was dated 2015, and the block was lifted the next day after Reddit blocked users in Russia from that specific post.


Russia, land of the free.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_websites_blocked_in_Russia

Quote:
In March 2022, amid its invasion of Ukraine, Russia began to increasingly block international news outlets such as BBC News Russian, Deutsche Welle, and RFE/RL (including Current Time), and Twitter was "restricted". These actions are intended primarily to curtail the dissemination of information that is inconsistent with the Government of Russia's official positions and statements. Roskomnadzor also ordered that Facebook be blocked for its "discrimination toward Russian media", in retaliation for restricting the accessibility of pages for Russian state media outlets such as Russia Today.[70][71] Twitter launched an onion service in response.[72]


Of course the US government doesn't block any websites.

I didn't hear about Russia winning the war in Syria. At any rate this has got complicated over there while most are focused on Ukraine.

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/syria-asked-iran-not-to-attack-israel-from-its-territory-report/ar-AA11bgqZ?ocid=msedgntp&cvid=a654efc2a9b5435df944f646

Preceding this Israel did a missile strike, I believe on Iranian forces in Syria (poor Syria, they're like everybody's bitch). Now Syria is asking Iran to not attack Israel from Syrian soil, because they don't need additional problems, so Iran complied and attacked American bases instead, which is understandable.

The thing with proxy wars is, I bet this doesn't get in the way of the prosed deal where Iran will supply oil and natural gas to Europe if (big if) the U.S. make the nuclear deal with Iran. Iran wants the same deal word for word negotiated by the Obama administration. I know nothing about the particulars of the nuclear deal but the U.S. would love to get Iran looking less like Russia's ally, and supplying much of NATO Europe's energy needs.

Sometimes it's politics and sometimes it's just business.

I never understood why people had such a big problem with the Obama Iran deal can anyone explain that? I have said for years and years we need to extend an olive branch to Iran and maybe even formally apologize for some things. Obviously they shouldn't have sided with the nazi and shouldn't be attacking isreal

Honestly Iran would be a better fit as an ally than fucking Saudi Arabia. The Saudis are nuts. Their version of Islam is kookoo for coco puffs

Yes, with Iran you don't know.
With Saudi Arabia you know. As flawed as American democracy is, it's still embarrassing to be tied to them. There are a lot of countries that have oil, but apparently big capital's corporate ties to the Saudis' seems to have us stuck with them.

Remember nation building in Afghanistan to give women rights. Saudi Arabia has a stable society without wars, and their social and legal system is still in the 7th century.

Unlike me?  I'm the one who said Ukraine should have left things the way they were since 2014, when Crimea was part of Russia and Donbas was independent and there would have been no war.

I am in a minority on the shroomery, as I frequently defend the opposing side when they have a point about something or when my side make believes something about them.  I also attack my side if I think they're wrong.  People here get very confused by that and think it means I prefer the other side.
