Oh please. What "geographical goals" would those be exactly? Was it part of the "special military operation" to have an entire convoy of armoured vehicles stuck and out of fuel? You reckon this was Putin's plan all along? To have a drawn out war that the entire sane media across the globe...

Then it wasn't really much of one when you argue about Russia exercising restraint. Of course they aren't. They're just failing in their objectives and for reasons outlined already.

Except the invasion was in full global view from the outset. So that doesn't fly.

Because that's what Russia does. It targets civilians under the pretense of it being a military target and has a history of doing it if you were to educate yourself on the score. I would ask where you get your "news" from for your latter but given your usual there's little point.

Yup. Now you're getting it and not just the state of disrepair of the equipment but the lack of training and resolve in personnel. Now, if you think Russia has such military might, how about you explain how after a month they've come nowhere near to subjugating Ukraine?

Then you're woefully ignorant of the incompetence of Russia where it comes to fighting wars. There's a history of such failure. Why do you suppose that the military might of Russia hasn't forced Ukraine into complete submission after more than a month? How come? The reason why several top...

Oh, the irony... Given that you get your "news" from varying wingnut & bat crazy sources it's little wonder you buy into any given conspiracy theory going.

So, fun fact. You're not the arbiter of what's true or not. There's a whole load of what other people consider to be 'true' that don't make sense to me sure, like this case being a literal event. People tormented in flames are not capable of coherent or eloquent speech for starters. If they...

It was Russia. Duh.

Many people disagree. Read literally it doesn't make sense as has been done all over on here. Lazarus as I recall translates as 'misery' and the rich man with purple linen was a metaphor for Israel. It makes way more sense to regard it as symbolic but fodder for another thread really.

Well at least you concede that you have no idea. That's a start...

If that's your yardstick for considering it a literal event then up to you.

What, exactly, wasn't lucid or clear about it? Clarify.

Well of course it isn't. Doesn't excuse war atrocity or any other sort that results in it though. On the one hand you consider it moral and virtuous to be completely non violent. On the other you're remarkably glib about those who suffer and die as a result of violence being inflicted upon them...

What? That was the rich man, not Lazarus. Ya know, the guy who denied Lazarus even the food scraps off his table? Even then it's pretty clear it's symbolic.

What "joyful characteristics" would those be exactly? The refugees from Ukraine certainly aren't your enemy so how about praying for their well being instead of judging them so much?

All too common over here. I like the rain an' all but when it's warm and a mild breeze... I'll let you know when it's back to zero here...:D

What? The - like - very stable genius? Surely, ya know, like...not?

Weirdly enough I was thinking on this yesterday knowing that we're in for another cold spell. It's been around 15/16 the last few days which for over here and where I'm at is above average for the time of year but not exactly summer where it hits around early to mid twenties. I know you don't...

Oh, it should but yes, all the more to add to the historical record of the most embarrassing president the US has ever had overall.
