How different is present America from the segrationist America would be more interesting. Totalitarian states actually give the perfect reason for peo...
But there's the anti-US team that thinks everything bad happens because of the US and is extremely unhappy about anything taking the focus off from ho...
And you do your useless stereotypical rant as you usually do. And as usual, quite clueless. Like "Stand with Somalia". Well, the Somalian government (...
Although that Ukraine would field 1 million men is unlikely, it can and will use the pool of reservists and the National Guard to replace it's losses....
Unlike you, we do look up what is happening in our countries and what is talked about. It's a common misconception to think that others are as ignoran...
Likely have not thought about = Likely have not planned to do This from the guy who until the end didn't believe that Russia would attack, that it all...
The fact is that Russia simply isn't a normal country that would try to have good relations with it's neighbors. It seeks the role it had when it was ...
So obviously you don't know shit about the deployment of nuclear weapons. Hopefully you know what the US nuclear triad means. Hence two of those legs ...
Oh I make this up? FYI, not all NATO countries have nuclear weapons deployed in them. https://www.pircenter.org/media/images/SI/map_NW_in_europe.jpg F...
NATO can be happy with getting both countries to the alliance. But as with Poland and the Baltic States, both Sweden and Finland are happy to join the...
I agree with you. I think Ukraine has a good chance to halt the assault in Donbas and push back as they have done in Kyiv and Kharkov. They surely can...
Looking good, but it's not over yet. It's going to be an interesting summer. And the best thing is that both countries are doing this together. It mig...
What is imperialism is to acquire territory through military force. When countries acknowledge the sovereignty of a state, then that typically defines...
Now the future for Russia is either bleak or even worse. I remember when I stayed in Moscow in a family, acquaintances of my parents, during the last ...
The simple answer: The blowback from Russia seemed to be more than the security given by NATO. And earlier, especially during the Cold War and when th...
Putin pretty much nailed that. Getting one country to change it's course in security policy after 200 years of a successful policy that made it to avo...
As I said that (nonsense) referred to this: Yet if you think Russia really will invade Finland, well, this was then a window of opportunity for us as ...
Russia has it forces in Ukraine (do you need references for that?). There aren't many forces on the Russian side of the Finnish border. (Here in Finni...
Why? I've already have ample firewood at the countryside place. And trees, if it comes to that. And it starts finally to be warmer here. And anyway, t...
Yes. And of course, and what really broke the back of the Soviet Union was the 1991 putsch attempt, which put the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist ...
I'm not so sure about that. If the Putinist regime would collapse like the Soviet Union, that would be great. We don't give enough credit how well the...
What I have referred to nonsense is you saying I have said that Russia will invade Finland. I've only quoted what Russian officials have said. "Russia...
Well, starting from the things they already have said: deploying more nukes to Kaliningrad and perhaps to the Finnish Border. I guess the obvious thin...
Oh boy, Isaac. Russia has genuinely said that, yet "serious military and political repercussions" doesn't mean Russia will attack Finland. Actually ve...
I don't write here with dual personalities, so notice what I say. I don't think Russia will destroy Finland. Russia has constantly threatened Finland ...
The fact is that Russia has shown enough recklessness and that it's untrustworthy with also having it's hands tied in Ukraine. If Ukraine was now unde...
So before he was 20 years, he was talking about it? OK, if you say so... But Chomsky refers only to those instances where it's either the US or an all...
Having the Soviet air defence shield in Finland and a coastal defense on both sides of the Gulf of Finland was the dream of the Soviet Union. Leningra...
At least Chomsky is honest that he doesn't have much to say when it comes to Sweden and Finland, and is puzzled. When it comes to Russia, perhaps Chom...
The US media commentators surely wanted payback during the Trump era when an Russian military intelligence unit secretly offered bounties to Taliban-l...
We do know, at least partly. Russia wanted NATO to withdraw to 1999 lines, hence starting from Czech Republic, Hungary and Poland, would be countries ...
I think there's a link here which is quite an American phenomenon, which then is copied in other places. It's what I'd call a populist right, which se...
I remember everybody poking holes at Fukuyama's ideas even when they were stated. And when 9/11 happened, Fukuyama admitted that his view of the World...
Say's the guy who glaringly posted how absurd it was to think that Russia would invade Ukraine... https://i.ibb.co/RzXLFk6/Ukr.jpg And later, just few...
An interesting table. I don't know how they have made it. If we put UK and England to be the same country, then it's number is 241, so 3rd place. Othe...
They have an appetite for war that doesn't show, doesn't affect them and what they can finance by simply printing more money. People likely don't even...
The overall trend has been that nominal GDP has risen too: the World economy is far larger than in 1989, when lot's of Chinese where still bicycling t...
That Inflation rate what you referred to is simply wrong. Do note that it was made in 2019, three years ago. So enough of that kind of bullshit and he...
Talking to automated bots. But I don't think the objective is to have a discussion. Just to express their views and dominate the thread and ad hominem...
