The ideal solution according to the Biden camp would have been for Germany and other European countries to buy oil and gas from America. At higher pri...

Yep, as reported in the New York Times, Putin's personal propaganda outlet, and written by Richard Poe, America's foremost Nazi leader .... :rofl: htt...
March 23, 2022 at 13:34
I disagree. I think what is far more embarrassing is the pro-NATO camp’s ignorance or denial of facts. As far as I’m aware, NATO is a military organiz...
March 23, 2022 at 13:18
Don't forget Vietnam. And Iraq. The US bombed the place into the stone age, left 100,000 Iraqis dead, and the whole region in the hands of Islamic Sta...
March 23, 2022 at 11:08
You mean a mankind ruled by America. I think judging by the historical experience, Britain and America have been far more predatory and imperialistic ...
March 23, 2022 at 10:59
Russia's land forces may be incompetent, but Russia still has the air power and it can pulverize Ukrainian cities from its own territory. So, Russia h...

Putin has put some of his intelligence and army chiefs under house arrest, he has redeployed his troops around Kiev, he has banned Facebook and Instag...
March 23, 2022 at 10:47
In theory, yes. In practice, highly improbable if we consider that, as pointed out by analysts, Ukraine is a pawn on America's chess board and is bein...
March 23, 2022 at 10:30
That's very strange, because the mandatory PC consensus on this thread seems to be that Putin has total control over the world's news and social media...
March 23, 2022 at 09:46
That's exactly what I've been saying. In fact, the US and UK have been arming and training the Ukrainians since 2014, obviously, anticipating Russia's...
March 23, 2022 at 09:36
I've already explained to you that the fact that you are a NATO jihadi doesn't make others "Putin trolls". It ought to be obvious that I was simply st...
March 23, 2022 at 09:25
Yep. "Criticizing NATO" but calling others "Putin trolls" when they make some real criticism of NATO. I would call that propaganda and dissimulation ....
March 23, 2022 at 02:02
Well, that's right. Britain declared war on Germany in 1914 on the false pretext that the Germans were "Huns" and violated "Belgian neutrality". And, ...

Yeah, right. Zelensky's approval ratings were down to 30% before the war! How President Zelensky’s approval ratings have surged - The New Statesman
March 23, 2022 at 01:39
Yep. That accurately describes your position on NATO. As for me, I don't think there is any need to criticize Putin seeing that you have made it your ...
March 23, 2022 at 01:35
I think there is an "Anglo-Saxon", i.e., Anglo-American jihad against other nations. NATO is basically an Anglo-American operation and a product of An...
March 23, 2022 at 00:49
If that's what you mean, it's alright by me. However, I said "the West's jihad on Russia", not "Ukraine's". And as far as I'm aware NATO was created b...
March 22, 2022 at 23:18
And the pro-NATO trolls. We also need to consider that Zelensky has put Ukraine under marshal law, he has nationalized all TV news, and he has banned ...
March 22, 2022 at 22:07
I think he's still doing it, I mean the sequel. Directed by NATO and produced by Hollywood as we speak. Another interesting development is that Zelens...
March 22, 2022 at 21:31
As I explained to you earlier, just because YOU are a troll it doesn't mean the rest of us must be trolls. BTW, no sanctions were imposed on America. ...
March 22, 2022 at 21:27
Correct. The question is why they decided to "flex" about it. And the answer seems to be that they were encouraged, as well as armed and trained, by t...
March 22, 2022 at 20:48
Yep, you've already exposed your total ignorance of the subject, so there is no need to do it again. :grin: However, the fact is that the OT not only ...
March 22, 2022 at 20:09
It seems that the more you're attempting to "think" the more you're demonstrating your inability to do so! :smile: Why would Yahweh need to cover hims...
March 21, 2022 at 23:23
Readers of the OT tend to focus on the creation story in Genesis. But the fact is that there are numerous references to creation in Psalms. Psalms is ...
March 21, 2022 at 14:06
I agree that there were mixtures of cultural practices and I think this is the key to understanding ancient Judaism. However, seeing the Sun as a deit...
March 19, 2022 at 21:38
I think it's pretty clear what the end game was - and is. The West (America and its client states Britain and France) has always hated Russia for havi...
March 19, 2022 at 01:47
You may claim to be "Swedish", but your claim is insufficient to conclude that you are not from the Finnish outback. Ergo, you have failed to provide ...
March 18, 2022 at 19:55
Nonsense. I think it's obvious even to yourself that you're making this up! :rofl: I never said "Nato and EU has been expanding for years. Conclusion:...
March 17, 2022 at 17:17
Correct. Truth is perceived as “bad” only by those who are afraid of it and seek to impose their own mythology on reality. :smile: As pointed out by m...

Exclusive: Secret CIA training program in Ukraine helped Kyiv prepare for Russian invasion
March 16, 2022 at 21:54
Well, I don’t think Tibet was an aggressor, or the Kurdish people who are under Turkish occupation. It seems to me that the West is applying some blat...
March 16, 2022 at 20:54
As shown by Finkelstein and Silberman, the best way to debunk the mythology and propaganda surrounding the origins and nature of Judaism, is to go to ...
March 16, 2022 at 19:16
I suppose, we could see it that way, but if consumerism is led by America (the world's largest consumer market) then it boils down to the same thing. ...
March 15, 2022 at 17:39
Rommen's book seems to be more about political philosophy but he does make some interesting points. I think what is important to understand is that th...
March 15, 2022 at 16:26
As stated by Plato, knowledge and truth are of divine origin. So, I think it makes sense to assume that divine truth is universal and that different a...
March 14, 2022 at 22:59
I agree that in an ideal world no country should be invaded by another. In fact, in an ideal world there would be no need for countries to take such a...
March 14, 2022 at 20:06
Well, as I have nothing to do either with Zelensky or his approval ratings, I doubt very much it's got anything to do with me. The fact remains though...
March 13, 2022 at 20:58
Let's not forget that the election campaign run by Zelensky was mostly virtual using social media channels and YouTube clips, and with the backing of ...
March 13, 2022 at 20:30
Correct. And this tendency is exploited by all propaganda operatives worth their salt. Hence the almost automatic recourse to claims of "genocide" on ...
March 13, 2022 at 19:22
Very interesting. However, not particularly coherent or convincing, to be honest. The way I see it, it is imperative to understand that this isn’t abo...
March 13, 2022 at 18:52
The linguistic and cultural milieu in which Jesus operated was Hellenistic. Hellenistic Judaism was a form of Judaism that combined Jewish religious t...

You may not be aware of it, but doing philosophy is precisely what I'm trying to do. Problem, you see, is that in order to philosophize you need to ha...
March 13, 2022 at 13:59
As already stated, Greek "influence" on Jesus consisted in his making use of the Greek language and the Hellenized culture of Roman Palestine. Helleni...
March 13, 2022 at 12:11
Well, you can say whatever you like, but I for one think it is irrational to blame others for your failure to understand simple statements that have b...

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: If people were to ask you to explain every one of your pronouncements, it'd take a whole separate forum - with Finnish translatio...
March 12, 2022 at 20:28
Perhaps you should learn how to read before commenting on other people’s posts. :smile: Please note that I said “Athens vs. Jerusalem” which does in f...
March 12, 2022 at 20:02
Well, I think animals in general have an innate tendency to regard other animals as objects to (1) fuck, (2) eat, or (3) run away from. :smile: Of cou...
March 12, 2022 at 19:24
I think it all hinges on how you define "objectification" and on whether it is something practiced exclusively by men ....
March 12, 2022 at 18:27
The funny thing is that, historically, the term "imperialism" has been used in reference to 1800's Britain and France, and continues to be mainly asso...
March 12, 2022 at 18:18
Well, if you want to go by the "forum rules", perhaps you ought to apply them to yourself first ... :smile: For your rhetorical "question" to have any...
