Julius Caesar As specified by:
Good grief, do you honestly believe that everyone is just going to sit on their hands to avoid accidentally bruising the ego of some lunatic in Moscow? Are we all losing our minds? I refuse to believe we should be held hostage by that bald man's temper tantrums.

Colleagues, I am suggesting we set our sights on Kyiv. Honestly, what exactly are we waiting for? It is high time we stepped up to assist our Ukrainian brothers.

It is precisely because of politicians such as yourselves that we find ourselves in this predicament.

And even those naive Ukrainians went after the Russians. It is entirely predictable that everyone—especially those actually paying attention—has realized they’ve been left high and dry.

It is rather akin to standing in a dive bar in Chicago, attempting to convince a group of intoxicated fools that they might actually stand a chance against Mike Tyson, all while promising them your unwavering support. Once those drunken idiots inevitably charge forward, only to be met with a brutal beating, the very same agitators who egged them on will flee the scene. They will then pivot instantly to protesting and calling for sanctions against Tyson, all while comfortably sipping their beers in a private booth.

People remain naively gullible when it comes to hospital protocols, whether they are being told they need a cast or are being ushered into surgery.

It is truly remarkable how those armchair activists manage to protest from such a comfortable distance, offering nothing but empty rhetoric. They make grand announcements about sending aid, yet their entire contribution seems limited to little things like Band-Aids, or perhaps some coffee and snacks for the hospital staff.

It is remarkably easy to play the critic when you’re operating from the sidelines; try facing the music yourself before you start lecturing others.

The only ones truly abandoned are the Russian soldiers—whom Putin didn't even bother to tell were going to war against Ukraine—and the families of the 4,000 dead Russian soldiers, who likely don't even know yet that their sons, brothers, and husbands died in Ukraine just because some old fool is trying to resurrect the Soviet Union through sheer force and the blood of the innocent.

Rebecca Lewis7 said:Vladimir Putin is contemplating nuclear escalation against the Fed, yet the Russians were the ones who initiated the aggression first, so how does one interpret that? They are acting like savages... completely irrational.

Does anyone here honestly expect the Russians to simply sit there and take it while their economy is being dismantled without any counter-measures or retaliatory sanctions? It is a rather absurd expectation.

One should not issue threats unless one is fully prepared to execute them and risk a broken hand or a black eye in the ensuing brawl.

The Russians tend to deliberate extensively before making a move, but once they commit, they are unstoppable; the more sanctions applied, the harder they strike. When they finally decide to act, they don't stop to calculate the cost or hesitate—they see things through to the end regardless of the price, so I certainly wouldn't advise trifing with them,, and no person of sound mind would engage them in such a manner.

Naive, gullible fools need to wake up from their fairy tales and face reality; otherwise, they will end up wailing just like the Ukrainians are doing now, asking "how could this happen?" or "why us?" and begging for comrades to help.A collection of useless "allies" is nowhere to be found when it actually matters.

Look at what happens when people fight back like the former Georgian president did; what kind of support did Georgia actually receive from those useless allies? They ended up with a broken state and zero actual assistance. Or consider the "allies" in Afghanistan, wandering aimlessly through the country while the women in ninja units are left to thank those useless Western powers for their "support."

These so-called allies only offer support as long as there is a clear financial incentive or an opportunity for extra profit; the moment real costs begin to mount, they suddenly become deaf, blind, and invent all sorts of excuses to claim they bear no responsibility.

They aren't being peaceful—they aren't calm, there is no peace, which is exactly why their economy is being strangled!

GET OUT OF UKRAINE!

The proposed $6.4 billion emergency aid package for Ukraine appears to have both Democratic and Republican backing.

Out of that $6.4 billion total—I suppose we should look at the breakdown—$3.5 billion is earmarked for military aid via the Pentagon, while the remaining $2.9 billion is intended for economic and humanitarian support.

Way to go, America!

The White House asked Congress on Friday to provide $ 6.4 billion to Help Ukraine in its fight against Russia's invasion, according to multiple reports.

The funding would be divided—with $3.5 billion directed to the Pentagon and $2.9 billion allocated toward security assistance, humanitarian relief, economic stabilization, and regional initiatives—an administration official told Axios.

"As The President and bipartisan members of Congress have made clear , The United States is committed to supporting The Ukrainian People as They defend their country and democracy," Office of Management and Budget said in a statement.

Susan Jackson65 said:What would actually happen if a legitimately elected government in Mexico suddenly announced they were pivoting toward a communist regime and seeking a military and economic alliance with Russia and China?

How exactly would the USA respond to such a move?

Well, Mexico has basically already been there—they functioned under a one-party system for an incredibly long time. Maybe try doing a little more research. 🤣

It looks like the Russians have found themselves some cheap cannon fodder—the Chechens!

Rebecca Lewis7 said:I am practically encouraging my colleagues to go on strike, mess with their bosses, and simply refuse to work.

If everyone except me ends up getting fired, I shall personally send them aid in the form of $33 ice cream money for their children.

As for any promised assistance, I intend to conveniently forget it exists, playing the part of the fool—deaf, blind, and utterly oblivious—even though I have always been the mastermind pulling the strings from the shadows.

Instead of rehiring them, I will simply employ my own friends and relatives; my personal economic and political interests will naturally take precedence over the needs of naive, gullible, and useful idiots.

I find myself feeling nothing but utter contempt for these B@B scumbags and their so-called "aid."

Hypocrites... stench... filth... manipulators... and now the ringleaders are pretending to be saints, so how exactly does one

Refrigerator IQ comparison 🤣

Nobody is "inciting" Ukraine to do anything. Perhaps you weren't paying close attention to Putin's speech—he stated quite clearly that he views Ukraine as a state and a nation as a nuisance, a thorn in his side. That is precisely why he is attacking them; he wants to erase the Ukrainian nation entirely and restore the Soviet Union.

The Ukrainian military budget sits at roughly $5 billion, while Americans are assisting them with about $6.4 billion—not to mention the Britons, Frenchmen, Dutchmen, and others chipping in another $300 to $400 million each in military aid.

Basically, back on Thursday, the first day of the invasion, Russia burned through $10 billion just trying to prop up the Ruble—and that was before any of these sanctions actually kicked in. It makes me wonder how much they’re hemorrhaging daily now to defend their currency following the sanctions, and even more so regarding what they'll be spending next week once they get booted from SWIFT.

By the way, the Russians actually made it illegal to disclose the exact figures regarding Ruble defense—this started after the annexation of Crimea—so we're stuck waiting on market data and whatever they choose to leak, since the Central Bank of Russia isn't allowed to publish those numbers officially.

northernangler8 said:I honestly have no clue who Ivan Čović is. But based on his comment, it looks like he actually knows quite a bit about the situation in Ukraine and how Ukrainians really feel about Putin and this whole war. It seems like the Ukrainians themselves are starting to realize that the USA pulled them into this conflict.

Posting image links without a brief description—or failing to note if the content is NSFW—is against the forum rules.☕

So, now Germany is sending anti-armor weapons to Ukraine via the Netherlands—I suppose the next logical step is wondering how much longer it will take before they finally decide to kick Russia out of SWIFT altogether.

would say: China sees the writing on the wall—so long, Putin!

If even 10% of this reporting holds water, I guess the Ukrainians could liberate Crimea too; there’s really no reason for them to stop now.

Michael Davis10 said:It’d be pretty interesting to see how NATO reacts if Putin, say, wiped out Amsterdam since the Dutch don't have nukes.
Would someone like Biden or Macron actually risk London or Paris by hitting back at Moscow?

😵

The US has nuclear weapons—maybe try educating yourself a bit.🤣

Ukraine has reportedly downed a Russian Ilyushin Il-76 transport plane via parachute strikes near Kyiv—the potential death toll is estimated at 174.

Ukraine: Russian missile strikes Japanese cargo ship near Ukrainian coast

If Japan were actually a sovereign nation—well, I guess they would have seized this moment to finally end the occupation of their own islands!

Michael Davis10 said:Wikipedia says they don't, but whatever. Let's just say they don't

But it actually exists at the Volkel military base in the Netherlands.

Furthermore—if Russia were to hit any city within the EU or NATO with nuclear weapons—NATO would respond 100%. It’s simple: radiation doesn't respect borders.

The French government is reportedly sending €300 million in military aid to Ukraine—most likely in the form of anti-tank and anti-aircraft systems.

Scott Rodriguez19 said:You clearly haven't done your homework.
We aren't talking about 500—it's closer to 5,000.

If you actually kicked Russia out of Swift, it would basically mean turning off the lights for German industry entirely.
It also means—and I guess this is an obvious point—that many people working overseas wouldn't be able to send money back home to the States.

I disagree—if Japanese industry can handle it, then Germany certainly should be able to as well, given they rely on LNG too.

Rachel Allen55 said:The Polish Football Federation pulled out of the World Cup qualifiers because they refuse to face Russia. According to ESPN

Honestly, this is starting to feel like a total joke to me🤦

It isn't just the Poles; everyone involved in these qualifiers is refusing to step onto the pitch against Russia.

Due to the escalation of Russian violence against Ukraine, the Polish national team will not play against Russia.

"That is the only correct decision," Kulesza stated. The Poles—alongside Sweden and the Czech Republic, who are also scheduled to play qualifying matches in Russia—plan to present this position to FIFA and await a ruling from the global governing body.

French authorities have begun seizing Russian ships in the English Channel

It’s painfully obvious that these two accounts—Michael Davis10 and Laura Scott7—are nothing but trolls. Honestly, how many drinks does someone need to have before they finally get banned?
