The argument was that the US somehow stopped peacetalks while the re-invasion of Ukraine was not even a month old. - Now the war is over one year old ...
I’ve noticed, actually in other threads also, that the most frail, most weakest arguments rely on advocating the expertize of the person who is quoted...
Again and again several people have given sensible and well thought refutations on just why they disagree with your opinion and have showed the bias o...
Perhaps the sneaking in part isn’t so easy? My guess is that the missiles or rockets they use simply don’t pack the punch to demolish such large struc...
Great point! Unfortunately in the school and even in the university science and especially math isn’t taught like this: how not only the mathematician...
An interesting an multifaceted question. I think the total acceptance and normalization isn’t beneficial. Going to brothel shouldn’t be as normal as g...
Your right. It isn’t odd. And if we would be discussing war that was in Afghanistan or the war still continuing in Yemen etc, suddenly we would have a...
Jeffrey Sachs is an economist, actually. And has written about povetry. And now is rather famous for his pro-Russian and pro-Chinese views. And the re...
And on what terms were they (the Russians) negotiating with the neonazis they were meant to denazify back then? Apart from the anti-US stance where ev...
Scarcely a month into the war Russia was speaking of denazification of Ukraine and on the offensive, so your argument that it was Washington’s ego tha...
It’s an interesting issue, but perhaps on another thread about US-Chinese tensions. Hope we don’t have a thread like ”The war in Taiwan” in the future...
As one can say that the war started in 2014, it’s still quite some time to be as long as the 30-years war. But likely the high tempo of this conventio...
Again something telling from Biden administration: today it was formally announced that Biden is visiting Finland. Yet it did ’t come as a surprise as...
A very good, detailed synopsis of what just happened: https://youtu.be/tP8VPkWXOfU Also goes well through what a coup is (which has been debated here)...
That talks before Feb 24th show this quite obviously. It wouldn’t have been Hungary, it would also have been Germany. Just as a decade earlier the Wik...
A simple show of force by Russia would have put Ukrainian aspirations to NATO into limbo. Just like the Turkey’s aspirations into EU are. NATO isn’t t...
Again what is revealed is that a) NATO isn’t a rubber stamp for US policy, which again and again has disappointed Washington and b) a lot has happened...
A good question then would be: What is left out when we dismiss both feminine and masculine traits of a human? I think far too many human characters a...
Surovikin was with Prigozhin in Syria and the two worked well together. Hence Surovikin is in jail. What is very likely true is that Prigozhin had at ...
Why would there be troops defending a city deep in Russia when Ukrainians are nowhere near Rostov? Air Defence unit perhaps could be found there, but ...
Has it disbanded? So why on Earth the weak timid response then from Putin and the references to 1917 and civil war? How many Russian politicians backe...
Let’s think what a mutiny is: simply a force that disobeys orders or won’t follow orders is basically a mutiny. Seizing the military HQ in Rostov, sho...
Katrina Doxsee isn’t CSIS. And then everything said before and after doesn’t at all give your impression. And then there is whar Putin has said about ...
And naturally of ownership and staus in the community. For starters, people behave differently to things and propertty if they a) own it, b) if they r...
Well, Yeltsin needed only to climb on an IFV and give a speech. And then all those milloin of troops (then, actually million) and their official leade...
Exactly: the countries embraced it. But those who fell under Russian rule didn’t, as is obvious. If you have problems in seeing the obvious difference...
Humiliate those in power, I guess. The establishment was already trying to contain him and Wagner. And do notice the enthusiastic response he got in R...
he has been building his brand for a long time. Or have you seen antbody else from the Russian leaders at the front, talking next to his fallen men ab...
Prigozhin can now tell the truth, like there was no genocide against Russians in Donbas by Nazi Ukrainians etc. If he survives, he can perhaps be the ...
Wagner troops occupied a HQ in Rostov. Hence if forces would have been deployed against the Wagner forces, the likely place of combat would have been ...
The coup was stoppable…but likely would have ruined Rostov and weakened Russia internally even more. Putin and his chef avoided that debacle, but this...
Besides, Putin has now the perfect ”Dolchstoss” reason just why the war in Ukraine went bad. He can forget now Ukraine. Internal security is more impo...
Quite the opposite. Russia can sign peace, just as made peace with Japan (during the Russo-Japanese war), with Germany (WW1) or Poland (Polish-Soviet ...
This is an important question perhaps only in sports. Otherwise the discourse reeks to a media frenzy, politics and at worst transphobia. Testosterone...
Isn't overcoming your worst failings one of your greatest triumphs? It's not that your celebrating your existing failings, like an "Holiday for income...
