And Russia did the attacking in 2014 and for the last several months. Yet you seem to think these invasions are all okay?Germany did the attacking in WW2.

They have more unexplored Arctic territory than any other country, and the attendant natural resources that will become more exploitable as global warming continuesThe Russians don't have anything the Americans would die for.
You mean "if".They have more unexplored Arctic territory than any other country, and the attendant natural resources that will become more exploitable as global warming continues
Yes they did, along with the Russians, at first.Germany did the attacking in WW2.
Agreed. It was all about covetousness.Because it was never about Nazis.
Are you now an apologist for the Russian dis-information bureau?They have more unexplored Arctic territory than any other country, and the attendant natural resources that will become more exploitable as global warming continues
Neither, merely stating a fact. In our lifetimes we will see a flurry of exploration and exploitation of the Arctic primarily in Canada Russia Greenland and Alaska.Are you now an apologist for the Russian dis-information bureau?
Or are you selling shares in an ice factory?

Feb. 19th, 2022 is gone, and now in June the Russians are pursuing a limited conflict amidst opposition. Looks like the "War" prediction fell through.Last piece of Putin’s puzzle slots into place: preparing Russians for war
Analysis: Just as Russian armour and helicopters are edging up the border, Russian messaging is also advancing to the brink
The omens of impending war we were warned about now seem to be lining up like the horsemen of the apocalypse.
The field hospitals have been set near the border, blood banks have reportedly been brought in. On the information war front, a dossier of alleged Ukraine war crimes circulated at the UN security council, and a video popped up purporting to show an attempted Ukrainian attack on chlorine tanks in the Donbas.
Now the rebel leaders in the Donetsk and Luhansk oblasts have ordered the evacuation of women and children to Russia, claiming – with no evidence whatsoever – that a Ukrainian attack is imminent. Right on cue, a car bomb went off in Donetsk, injuring no one, but providing a fireball for the cameras.
All of this is more or less what US and UK briefers have told journalists to expect in the run-up to a Russian invasion. The one piece that had been missing from Vladimir Putin’s relentless build-up was an effort to prepare the Russian population for the prospect of a major war. That piece seems to be slotting into place.
Just as Russian armour and helicopters are edging up the border, Russian messaging is also advancing to the brink. War is becoming more probable by the hour, but it still does not necessarily mean that Putin has made his final decision.
Other explanations are still possible, and events unfolding today may be messier than a single Kremlin-orchestrated master plan.
If the chlorine video was the “false flag” pretext for war, it is a very crude and low-budget version of what US and British briefers had predicted, which had involved actors, borrowed corpses and high production values.
In a similar vein, the dossier presented to the security council on Thursday was extremely thin and did not claim anything other than civilians have been killed in shelling on the rebel side of the lines in the Donbas since 2014. That was already known, it mirrors civilian casualties on the other side, and falls a very long way short of genocide.
The most alarming development of the day is the evacuation from Luhansk and Donetsk, creating a sudden refugee crisis in neighbouring Rostov in Russia.
AB disagrees with you. He came out and said I was crazy for warning this could go nuclear rather quickly after Lithuania's actions.None of those conflicts will turn into WWIII given a moment's chance though tbh.
"This" what?AB disagrees with you. He came out and said I was crazy for warning this could go nuclear rather quickly after Lithuania's actions.
This war."This" what?
I responded to the post right above mine. Ukraine was specifically excluded.This war.
LOL. Ukraine was excluded when Lithuaia's actions are tied directly to the Ukraine war. Ypu're as big a troll as AB, UN,and anna.I responded to the post right above mine. Ukraine was specifically excluded.
