Here you have NBC giving you half the story on the Nazis / Ukraine and Putin, https://www.nbcnews.com/think/opinio...ar-ncna1290946.
Just as disturbing, neo-Nazis are part of some of Ukraine's growing ranks of volunteer battalions. They are battle-hardened after waging some of the toughest street fighting against Moscow-backed separatists in eastern Ukraine following Putin's Crimean invasion in 2014. One is the Azov Battalion, founded by an avowed white supremacist who claimed Ukraine's national purpose was to rid the country of Jews and other inferior races. In 2018, the USA Congress stipulated that its aid to Ukraine couldn't be used "to provide arms, training or other assistance to the Azov Battalion. " Even so, Azov is now an official member of the Ukraine National Guard.
This story makes it seems like American aid did not go to the Nazis, but it did seamlessly from 2014 to 2017, https://thehill.com/policy/defense/3...-to-neo-nazis/.
House-passed spending bills for the past three years have included a ban on USA Aid to Ukraine from going to the Azov / Nazi Battalion, but the provision was stripped out before final passage each year. This year, though, the $1. 3 trillion omnibus spending bill signed into law last week stipulates that "none of the funds made available by this act may be used to provide arms, training or other assistance to the Azov / Nazi Battalion. ".
Back to NBC, For sure, none of this disturbing context justifies the misery that has befallen Ukrainians over the past several weeks and it's unlikely that Putin was motivated by any of it when he launched his invasion.
That goes directly against what Putin himself said.
Back to the Hill Story, Last year, online posts by the militia's news service showed members testing USA -made grenade launchers at a firing range. The posts have since been deleted, and the Ukrainian National Guard insisted in a January statement that the grenade launchers were not in the Nazi / Azov's possession.
So let's backtrack a second. The Azov / Ukrainian Nazis and Ukrainians of Russian descent have been in a war in Eastern Ukraine since 2014. Russia got sick of how Russians were being treated by the Nazis and they went to war over this.
Zelensky was elected because the people wanted peace but he could not control this sect of his population. One of the issues I have is this crazy notion that USA weapons and CIA training did not make it to Ukrainian Nazis when obviously it did.
It makes me wonder if the reason Zelensky could not control the Nazis is because so much American money and weapons were funneled to them one way or another, but this just goes to show you there has been a war in Ukraine since 2014.

Putin has said the Ukraine and the Ukrainians belong to Russia. All you have to do is look at Belarus if you want to see what the Ukraine would look like if they stayed in Russia's orbit.

Can you pelase go back to writing on Isaan toilet walls?
There is no such person called Putler.
Finland faces some of Russia key nuclear defences. Finland stands to be nuked in an eye blink. The fact that the freak in charge of Finland (the cute working girl raised by two lesbians) does not know that is tough shit. That she wants to working girl herself out to Uncle Sam is her look out.
As regards Snake Island, Russia, for their own reasons I do not divine (and you don't as you are a moron) is calling Ukraine's bluff regarding grain shipments.
Blockading Russia affects lots of folk who have nothing whatsoever to do with this conflict, bar being trading partners of Russia. That the Anglo Americans what to starve the Deep South to death is nothing new. It is what they do.

Publishing, not to have a problem with Finland entering NATO, which results in 1300 km more NATO-border, this indicates Putins retreat. Who used the possibility of Ukraine entering NATO as fake argument for war.

In RF, there is the Wagner-Group, and especially Alexander Geljewitsch Dugin, who is suspected to be one of Putlers influencers, from the far right, Nazi side.

Oil and natural gas prices did not go up because of Putin. They went up because NATO nations (supposedly) refused to buy Russian oil and natural gas. That stupid policy has led to Russia getting richer and Western nations getting poorer. Saying you Dems are dumb is not offering support for Putin.
Pointing out that your saying Putin is an irrational monster committing horrible war crimes in one breath then saying how rational he will be with nuclear weapons is not support for Putin. Again, that is just showing how inconsistent and dumb you are.
The reason I and people like me are told we should care is that Putin attacked Ukraine and then he is going to go after our NATO allies and WW3 is around the corner is stupid too. That is always what the military industrial complex always sells us. They create a villain who is supposedly threatening our way of life and how we need to spend trillions to stop him. With Vietnam, it was called the domino theory.
So I look into that, and it turns out that Russia has been in a cold war over Ukraine since 2014 and now it is a hot war. It is a purely regional conflict. You have the former commies on one side and the Nazis on the other, and guys like you want us to commit to the Nazis.
So Paulie I am not the coward. I do not have a dog in the fight and want to stay out. But if you think this affects you, you need to quit being a coward and go volunteer and fight alongside the Nazis. Wars are not won just by guys shooting bullets.

It's funny these arguments that keep coming, blaming NATO, and especially the US for the interest in democracy among Eastern Euro nations, and by extension for the war in Ukraine. The agencies of all these countries are completely ignored. Russia might have faired better if they had something to offer besides the kleptocratic, the dreary and drab, threats, and terrorist violence. Yet the fallacy persists, as if repeating it 1000's of times will make it true. A lot of countries enjoy freedom, due process and rule of law, is the name of that tune.

Outside of Crimea and the Donbass Ukrainian love for democracy is very strong, as is so testified to by it's resolve and a will to fight. Traitors are relatively few and this is very unlikely to change. As to your shame as a US citizen, and so called "propaganda," seems you have a headful of lefty, Noam Chomsky esque, the US is responsible for all the evil in the world rubbish. We don't want you, but whine in an international hooker forum to your heart's content. You'll find some sympathetic ears. LOL.

Note that US military doctrine has always proposed tactical nukes to stop NATO from being overrun. That's a moot point nowadays, because NATO can easily defend itself with conventional weapons, but the doctrine is still there. Tactical nukes are not "beyond the pale of civilized war", in other words. Neutron tactical nukes were specifically developed by the USA in the 1970's (if I recall correctly) to kill Warsaw pact troops flooding into West Germany without destroying too much West German infrastructure.
Western civilization will indeed be weakened after the inevitable Russian victory, though Russia will be weakened much more. This war, like the botched Iraq and Afghanistan wars previously, is part of the process of USA decline from elevated position circa 1990-2010 of undisputed worldwide military supremacy to more sustainable position of powerful but not all-powerful. Next step in this decline process will be rebellion by the western Europeans, as it sinks in how badly they are being affected economically by USA policy.
BTW my Ukrainian girlfriend here in Chisinau reads the news avidly everyday and volunteers comments to the effect that the Ukrainian government is filled with fanatics. She is from a village in Cherkasy oblast, as central Ukrainian ethnically as they come. I suspect there are many other Ukrainians like her, a silent minority which will eventually be a majority who are having doubts about this avoidable war (carry through with Minsk agreement), but are unable to even formulate much less express their doubts because of all the propaganda coming from Kyiv, to speak nothing of persecution of outspoken doubters. And no, I don't put ideas in her head. On the contrary, I try to avoid commenting around her, because the subject depresses me. Plus, as USA citizen, I'm ashamed of what the USA has cynically done to Ukraine.

ROFL In fact I'm surprised he hasn't found his way to this thread. About everyone else has, though he likely is here under a different name.
While I'm posting here's another for the Vlad sympathizer Elvis. He whines that his man Vlad is being "demonized" but he does a fine job of that all by himself. In fact terrorism / war crimes are straight from the Russo playbook. It's the way of the coward and how they wage war.
