"Russian Pearl Harbor"

The US paid for the means Ukraine used to attack Russia, since Ukraine is America's pet proxy

Russia is a murderous regime that is a threat to Europe & Democracy in general.

Everything that has happened to Russia since Feb. 2022 & will happen from this day forward is Russia's fault & it deserves every bit of pain that it gets inflicted with.
 
What tickles my gizzard is when Russia, as they bomb Ukrainian civilian targets, day in and day out, (under the guise of a "military operation") proclaims that, when Ukraine responds by hitting military targets inside of Russia, it is an "act of terrorism."

That's rich. Can Russians actually be so stupid that they actually believe that shit?

Yes.

They've been under a Big Brother/1984-type political system for so long, it's become a fact of life to believe such crapola.
 
Your ethnic hatred of Russians, and your declaration of them as your hated untermenschen, shows that you're driven by hate.

The hate-on for Russia & Russians is self-inflicted.

It's hard to like a people who put up with rulers like Putzin & how they conduct wars.
 
And The wild unnecessary expansion towards Russian borders.

Russia should stop invading/threatening it's neighbors & maybe NATO wouldn't expand.

Sweden & Finland would still be neutral & non-NATO members if Putzin had not invaded Ukraine in 2022.
 
Bin Laden said the same thing about the US destruction of Iraq and subsequent complaints by the US of receiving terrorism on 9/11
If you legitimize terrorism, then what you've legitimized can be used against you some day.


Your ethnic hatred of Russians, and your declaration of them as your hated untermenschen, shows that you're driven by hate.
Others don't want to be dragged into your personal hate-fest.


What you legitimize against others today can be used against you tomorrow.
At that point, you'll simply flipflop and change your tune, claiming you never said what you said
You deny that the feeling is mutual? Russians hate America just as much as the reverse. We are sworn enemies and have been since WWII. Anyone that says otherwise is delusional.
 
Chunks of Kherson, Zapporhizia, Luhansk and Donetsk are no longer Ukrainian.

A fraction of Ukraine is still sovereign. And in all likelihood at the end of the day a rump Ukraine will remain sovereign. A good portion of Ukrainians of Russian ethnicity who dont want to be part of Ukraine will also not be part of Ukraine anymore

What would you do if you went on vacation & some squatters decided to take up residence in your home? Would you allow them to continue living there or would you call the police & have them removed?

The West supporting Ukraine now is the equivalent of the police being called.
 
If the Russian Federation does that the regime in Kyiv will recolonise Donbass and Crimea
Well, they are Ukrainian territories, so....


There is a war going on. Ukraine has to strike as hard as she can until the war is over

I think it's safe to say that from what we saw this weekend, Ukraine is capable of doing just that.
 
They should keep fighting if that is their desire. But capitulation is also an option. Ukraine can also stop the war by capitulating. Just as Mexico stopped the war of 1846 by capitulating

Nations capitulate all the time

Ukraine doesn't want to capitulate because it doesn't want history repeating itself (see: Holodomor)
 
Crimea and Donbass are not Ukraine's to give up. The folks there want out and are getting out






Hello? Crimea is already in Russia since 2014. And as we speak the bulk of Kherson, Zapporhizia, Luhansk, Donetsk are already in Russia. Or I suppose you wanted them to leave behind their lands. It doesnt work that way.





But going by the pro Kyiv side arguments Mexico should not have capitulated





They should keep fighting if that is their desire. But capitulation is also an option. Ukraine can also stop the war by capitulating. Just as Mexico stopped the war of 1846 by capitulating

Yes the men of the occupied territories are getting out alright....up to heaven. They have all been conscripted and most have been killed in the meat waves. This is what will happen to all of Ukraine is they surrender. Putin will conscript them all to fight his next war and then kidnap all their children to be raised as Russians. There is no "choice" for Ukraine they would much rather die killing Russians than fighting for Russia.

Forced conscription is a war crime

However, these punishments would not exempt anyone from serving in the Russian army, says Skrypnyk, emphasizing that conscription into the military in the occupied territories violates international humanitarian law and constitutes a war crime.

Russia has been forcibly conscripting Ukrainians living in the occupied territories into the army since 2022 and often abuses them as "human shields," she says. "We know of cases where drafted, unarmed men were put in front of the regular army, making them the first to be attacked. This was practiced en masse in 2022."

According to the Crimean Human Rights Group, Russia deployed numerous recruits from annexed Crimea during its invasion of Ukraine. Skrypnyk says that at least 1,873 members of Russian units in Crimea have fallen since 2022, while 116 Crimean residents have been taken prisoner by the Ukrainian armed forces.

Crimeans have totally moved to Russia.

Not the ethnic Crimeans.

They've either been relocated forcibly, killed or fled...something that they've had to deal with since the days of Stalin.
 
Nope. Capitulation is when Russia takes over the whole Ukraine and establishes interim transition military government, as was the case with Germany.

Which is what it tried to do when it made a run for Kyiv...and failed.

They better hurry it up then before Ukraine destroys all of its nuclear deterrents and leaves them helpless. Ukraine is just getting started on Russia.
 
When Russia falls again we won't be making the same mistakes. The colonies of the Russian Federation will all be freed.
What a great day that will be. Perhaps we'll have Ukraine to thank for getting the ball rolling on that.
 
The "Helsinki Commission" is a Western body, financed by the West , who's primary goal was to make the sham and illegal referendum of "independence" in Ukraine look good and trustworthy. This is the task which it has implemented as it was told by Western bosses.
The soviet referendum was monitored by Soviet authorities according to Soviet constitution.
For the 10th time there is no Soviet Union and there is no Soviet Constitution. You are a foolish as Putin. He thinks the USSR exists also.
 
Until Ukrainian ethnosupremacists upset the Ukrainian Constitution in the coup of 2014
The President was removed for desertion of duty when he fled to Moscow. That was part of the Ukraine Constitution and new elections were held.
 
Yes.

1954, 1991 and later.

Russia and Ukraine.
You even don't understand what is "demarcation".
No. The borders between Ukraine and Russia WERE NOT demarcated in 1954, neither in 1991, nor later.
