As a Frenchman, I know very little about marsupials, just like as an Australian, you probably know very little about Europe. But since it doesn't stop...

(sic) It doesn't matter if I quote you or not, because your logic is as broken as your grammar. You cannot perceive your own contradictions, you 'blan...

Yes, and many English-speaking media -- such as FAUX -- have been manipulated for decades. Hence Brexit, Trump, and other bizarro anglo stuff. Their p...

Note that @"Isaac", @"StreetlightX" and others are constantly contradicting themselves, but it doesn't actually matter to them because they are simply...

FAUX News is a lie machine, a dumbing-down machine. Watching them will make you stupid.

So you have nothing to say at the moment other than clichés. Did that ever stop you before?

So when do you plan to start, Mr Magpie?

You've been reported for racism.

Right now I think Russians are meddling in internal Ukrainian affairs far more than your "West".

Of course, the petro-connection also implies that Ukraine (and Europe) needs Crimea back. Ukraine without Crimea is not nearly as useful if the idea i...

It's to take out the log you got in there.

I hope that wasn't too painful. :-)

Haven't you heard? This is not a thread about the West, nor about who is the worse baddy. In any case, I am the worse baddy. Worse than Putin and Trum...

What about your whataboutism?

Thank you for this excellent video. I checked the main bit: that the black sea around Crimea has much hydrocarbon resources, and it it true. Therefore...

Can we avoid reproducing blatant lies from FAUX News here? Please? It's the Pravda in English. It's like spreading feces all over TPF. Have some decen...

I agree. He's got enough of a fight already.

The US let Hitler do whatever he wanted, though. Without a NATO membership, Finland would be left alone to fight an hypothetical invader. Just like Uk...

Verba volant, scripta manent.

That would make a nice movie. The title could be: Rebirth of Ashkenaz. Gal Gadot would play the lead MOSAD agent. She would meet with her grandma who ...

PBS interview with Finland’s president Sauli Niinistö on the occasion of his Washington visit, Mar 04, 2022: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=6russAQvGhI...

In a significant manner, yes, amongst many other factors. The stingers are widely believe to have turned the tide in Afghanistan. But note that the Uk...

This war will likely prove a very bad move for Russia, irrespective of the technical outcome in Kiev. In any case, that is my own prognosis, and it ha...

Russian general killed, Ukraine defence ministry claims Ukrainian intelligence says major general in Russia’s 41st army died outside Kharkiv along wit...

Good to know we are all in agreement then.

You guys think Russia will have no economic problem? Really? You are indeed amusing.

Armchair geopoliticians and wannabe generals tend to overestimate their own capacity to predict the future and see things coming.

Whatever.

I told you about my qualifications? You must confuse me with someone else.

How could you know my qualifications, or his for that matter? He could be just another clown, for all you know. The truth is: nobody knows how it will...

Never heard of him. Any good?

Why then, if this is a discussion forum, maybe you need to start paying attention to what other folks say, instead of insulting them? Against no one i...

I don't read Bloomberg, but yeah, it's confusing. The clear thing is that Putin is not winning, whereas on paper, expectations were that he would win ...

If you ever doubt the power of evolution to create novelty, maybe consider that there's this new virus out there, called COVID 2019, and that it did c...

I suppose the same as yours... Isn't it true that they had thousands of casualties already? The Soviets stayed in Afghanistan for a decade, during whi...

For once I agree with you. The Russians obviously can't win this one. They are being bled to death, their army is humiliated, and the country is soon ...

No, I don't. Any other deep interrogation of yours I can help you with?

At best, it's going to be a Pyrrhic victory. Basically, they are humiliating themselves right now, and wasting all their resources for nothing.

Because the Baltic states and Poland, for instance, can now rest assured they can beat the Russians in a conventional war, in case the Russians would ...

Nato is a defensive alliance. It has never attacked anyone.

In any case, if the Russians can't beat the Ukrainians, they sure can't beat NATO. They would not have lasted very long against any serious western ar...

LOL. The 'flee or fight' system provides a capacity to decide quickly ie to chose between two alternatives for how to deal with a potential foe. If th...

It's fundamentally different, as no decision has to be made by an electron re. its attraction to protons.

Yes, for instance reproduction, predation and parasitism, flee or fight, symbiosis or symbolism, are concepts which have no meaning whatsoever in chem...

The same applies in between any two levels. The leap between inanimate matter (chemistry) and living organism (biology) is also quite huge, and the qu...

Thanks for all the info and great insight. I could not understand this bit. What did you mean by "unsupported raids", and "throwing away"?

Another one of Chapatte's great graphic work, on the same theme: https://www.chappatte.com/prod/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/N220227ge-small-950x705.jpg

What??? Ukrainians aren't all perfectly woke? Well then, Putin is fighting the right fight! I call it: Trollin for Putin.

You tell me... :-) Once you're done, I have other questions for ya: how heavy is 'heavy'? How beautiful is 'beautiful'?
