• OT: Henry Kissinger on Ukraine

    Far too often, the Ukrainian issue is posed as a showdown: whether
    Ukraine joins the East or the West. But if Ukraine is to survive and
    thrive, it must not be either side’s outpost against the other – it
    should function as a bridge between them.

    Holy shit all these antique ghouls must've made a pact with the Devil to
    live forever.

    The world would be a much better place if it stopped taking the opinions
    of has-been pale-skins like Putin, Trump, Biden, Kissenger, et al with a combined age of 9000 years old seriously.

    The neocons are trying to fool people that NATO entrance would lead to deterrence and peace, when in fact it is a recipe for war and disaster.

    Oddly, that's a perceptive article. Alas, it ignores the fact that Ukraine is a
    democracy, and Putin's Russia is so corrupted by (among other things) Putin stealing elections and supressing the press that a kleptocracy run by a dictator is now invading, trying to seize more political power at gunpoint.

    Rule-from-Ukraine is better than rule-from-Moscow, and the article doesn't say otherwise.
    NATO membership certainly has a better future than capitulation to Tsar Vladimir.

    Difficult to believe how many clueless people are rooting for death
    and destruction, praying for World War III.

    Millions being displaced and killed so Zelensky can keep his job.

    It's like the Black Night in Monty Python and the Holy Grail (1975).

    None? John Doe is clueless enough to imagine otherwise.

    Millions being displaced and killed so Zelensky can keep his job.

    How so? Zelensky didn't initiate the invasion of the Ukraine. He didn't do what Trump asked him to and he hasn't done whatever it is that Putin wants him to do, but I don't think that "keeping his job" came into it.

    It's like the Black Night in Monty Python and the Holy Grail (1975).

    Not in the least. The Ukrainians still seem to be capable of effective defense. The Russians have done a lot of damage, but they haven't got all that far.

    Ukraine is the Black Night. Zelensky is its brain. Ukrainians are the Black Knight's lost body parts...

    So where do the long Russian tank columns that get their leading tanks blown to shred fit into this far-fetched analogy.

    The US satellite images have shown quite a few of these long columns, which don't actually seem to get anywhere.

    Actually, John Doe has got this wrong. I am Australian, but I don't bash Americans because they are American.

    I criticise stupid people when they post misleading nonsense. Some of the worst offenders here are American. John Doe and Flyguy do come in for a lot of justified criticism. John Larkin gets some from time to time. He isn't actually stupid, but he posts
    ignorant nonsense a lot too often.

    I'm certainly frequently rude about Cursitor Doom's idiocies, even though he claims to of English origin, and I've been nasty about Skybuck, who is Dutch.

    John Doe should think this one out again, if he ever works out how to think in any useful way, which probably won't happen any time soon.

    Zelensky is doing a bad job of "protecting his home" considering the
    fact millions of Ukrainians are being displaced and killed.

    Zelensky is flapping his lips while Ukraine is being destroyed.

    Advising the "victim" on how to stop the slaughter of its children is
    hardly "blaming the victim".

    Encouraging the "victim" to continue acting in a way that gets more of its children slaughtered is bloody evil.

    Too many people closing their eyes to reality, cheering death and
    destruction, and praying for World War III, just because they hate
    Russia...

    Yes, i am rooting for death and destruction of the Z army. Because that's the only way to end this Putin War.

    6,000 death, 15,000 wounded
    20 jets, 30 copters, 200 tanks, 100 APCs destroyed.

    and Ukraine has 1,200 javelins, 2,000 stingers, 17,000 small missiles waiting.

    Millions being displaced and killed so Zelensky can keep his job.

    He is just protecting his home, family and friends. Why is that bad? It's like blaming the victim for home invasion.

    After the major powers developed the ability to destroy the entire planet,
    NATO was obsolete. The only purpose for NATO's existence and its expansion
    is to enable a first strike against Russia, that's why NATO is expanding

    Zero. Not difficult to believe that.

    Millions being displaced and killed so Zelensky can keep his job.

    Not 'so Putin can expand his empire'? Zelensky is an elected official, his job
    is the will of an entire nation. Putin's machinations aren't national
    will, as he has suppressed independent discourse (and fair votes) for years.

    "Far too often, the Ukrainian issue is posed as a showdown: whether

    Then, shortly before the invasion, Zelensky was demanding NATO admittance. Apparently Kamala Harris made a careless statement of approval too, but I haven't been able to find a record of that. Apparently the same happened
    with Georgia.

    It's no secret. Many Americans and others have warned about it. NATO has
    been expanding towards Russia's border since the Cold War supposedly
    ended. It's naked aggression. They want a first strike capability. There
    is no other reason considering the fact all the major powers can destroy
    the whole freaking Earth.

    The idea Zelensky is just a good guy trying to help his people is
    laughable. It's called ACTING. It ignores the FACTS on the ground. An incredible amount of yada yada yada going on while millions of Ukrainians
    are being displaced and killed. But who cares, after you realize the sad
    truth, after more of they're homes are destroyed and more of them are
    dead, it will be all Russia's fault.

    The current BIG crop of warmongers are like the guy being held back from a fight, flailing as if set free he would pummel his adversary (and in this situation kill everybody else). Must be why the warmongers aren't calling
    the shots.

    It's no secret. Many Americans and others have warned about it. NATO has been expanding towards Russia's border since the Cold War supposedly

    It's more that the former satellites want protection against Russian expansionism.

    It's naked aggression.

    Or so John Doe wants to believe.

    They want a first strike capability.

    That's what ICBM's offer. Before there were submarine launched ICBMs it was useful to put intermediate range ballistic missiles in countries closer to Russia, but that stopped being worth the trouble decades ago. Quite why John Doe has got "first strike
    capability" into his head is a mystery.

    There is no other reason considering the fact all the major powers can destroy the whole freaking Earth.

    Half-witted nonsense.

    The idea Zelensky is just a good guy trying to help his people is laughable.

    John Doe wants to laugh at it, for half-witted reasons of his own. He's nuts.

    It's called ACTING. It ignores the FACTS on the ground.

    Not that John Doe can name even one. He can come up with deluded assertions, and does it ore or less non-stop.

    An incredible amount of yada yada yada going on while millions of Ukrainians are being displaced and killed. But who cares, after you realize the sad truth, after more of they're homes are destroyed and more of them are
    dead, it will be all Russia's fault.

    It's hard to blame anybody else. It is Russian bombs and shells that are destroying the houses and killing the people.

    The current BIG crop of warmongers are like the guy being held back from a fight, flailing as if set free he would pummel his adversary (and in this situation kill everybody else).

    Not that John Doe has identified any of the BIG crop of war-mongers. Putin presumably qualifies - he's definitely waging war on the Ukraine. Everybody else would like him to stop doing that.

    Must be why the warmongers aren't calling the shots.

    More likely because they resemble cannibal leftists, in existing only in John Doe's deluded imagination.

    False. Ukraine's Lviv (formerly Lvov, Poland) was first invaded by Stalin, who
    later turned that city (and its Jews) over to Germany. Another, recent invasion
    from Russia was in Crimea. This is a third "first strike" from Russia.

    NATO can, and has, kept borders intact regardless of Russian agressions.
    NATO has not conquered any territory, all NATO nations are self-governing.
    I suspect many inhabitants of Ukraine prefer to be self-governed, and
    whether they speak Russian or not, do not expect good rule from military governors and/or Moscow. NATO as an alternative to Moscow or unelected puppets
    is thus an attractive prospect.

    Ukraine's history with Russian rulers includes the 'collectivation of agriculture' episode
    which claimed millions of lives. How many, history may never know, but... Ukraine
    remembers.

    NATO is a MILITARY organization.

    But it's true, not all countries have been invaded by NATO, and the
    leadership of some of those have decided to join NATO. But the idea NATO membership is all "the will of the people" is hilarious.

    https://youtu.be/UXA--dj2-CY?t=16

    "If the prosecutor is not fired, you're not getting the money... Well son of a bitch, he got fired!"

    But of course (with a straight face), Joe wanted the prosecutor fired
    because he WASN'T investigating the company his son was working for...

    That's sillier than the "oceanfront property in Arizona" stuff.

    So what? The prosecutor was arguably corrupt. Zelensky arguably isn't,
    and wasn't.
    Despite the US membership in NATO, that wasn't a NATO action in any case. Contrast the 'influence' exerted (2004) when Viktor Yushchenko got a big
    dose of dioxin
    and nearly died. Some say that sounds like a KGB trick.

    But it's true, not all countries have been invaded by NATO, and the leadership of some of those have decided to join NATO. But the idea NATO membership is all "the will of the people" is hilarious.

    "If the prosecutor is not fired, you're not getting the money... Well son of a bitch, he got fired!"

    So what? The prosecutor was arguably corrupt. Zelensky arguably isn't, and wasn't.
    Despite the US membership in NATO, that wasn't a NATO action in any case. Contrast the 'influence' exerted (2004) when Viktor Yushchenko got a big dose of dioxin
    and nearly died. Some say that sounds like a KGB trick.

    Such a silly troll...

    John Doe - as our resident silly troll - should be an expert on the subject, but as he clearly doesn't realise that he is a remarkably silly troll, his expertise in recognising troll-like behavior clearly isn't up to much. He's probably recycling abuse
    originally directed at him.

    Bozo is a self-destructive cannibal leftist America-bashing troll from Australia.


    Bozo Bill Sloman is an attention-craving chronic liar who cannot be
    reasoned with...

    "the Mueller investigation was about Trump only because Trump made it so"
    (Bozo paraphrased)

    "the concepts "male" and "female" are essentially social constructions"

    Henry Kissinger's ideas of NATO's expansion was nothing like how it turned
    out.

    Such a treaty would provide that no foreign troops be stationed on the territory of new NATO members, on the model of the arrangement for East Germany (or, better, no closer than a fixed distance from the eastern
    border of Poland).

    There are already NATO troops in three out of four of those Visigrad
    countries Kissinger wanted them to stay out of. There are NATO troops in Germany. And now Poland is dying to send fighter jets to Ukraine.

    The problem is NATO expansion, obviously.

    Far too often, the Ukrainian issue is posed as a showdown: whether
    Ukraine joins the East or the West. But if Ukraine is to survive and
    thrive, it must not be either side's outpost against the other - it
    should function as a bridge between them.

    John Doe is a deluded idiot who claims to be from America. Anonymous trolls can claim any nationality they like.

    I'm not actually a troll, while John Doe clearly is, and I don't go in for America-bashing. What I actually go in for is idiot bashing - John Doe claims to be an American idiot, and flatters himself with the idea that I'm going after him because he might
    be an American, rather than the idiot he he clearly is.

    A lot has happened since 1994.

    Such a treaty would provide that no foreign troops be stationed on the territory of new NATO members, on the model of the arrangement for East Germany (or, better, no closer than a fixed distance from the eastern border of Poland).

    There are already NATO troops in three out of four of those Visigrad countries Kissinger wanted them to stay out of. There are NATO troops in Germany. And now Poland is dying to send fighter jets to Ukraine.

    John Doe seems to ignore the possibility that Putin's territorial ambitions might be seen as a problem by his neighbors who were formerly satellite states of the USSR.

    They don't look back all that fondly on that period.
