Re: Ukraine War Watch Thread

Anybody knows if Biden is going to send the Attorney General to Afghanistan to help them prosecute those crimes committed by the SAS? How many forensic teams is the EU sending to Afghanistan? Or is it, again, that they are "war crimes" unless we or our cronies did it? Yes, it feels great t...

Re: Ukraine War Watch Thread

Collaborationists as civilian? They are civilians, unless you want to declare them "enemy combatants" or they want to declare you enemy combatant. Depends on the circumstances . Yours or mine? ...two different concepts. Once you are dead, how much does you family care about the concept? S...

Re: Ukraine War Watch Thread

I tend to use "Collaborationists", do you consider them civilians? If you target a general and kill a hundred civilians, "collateral damage" and all good? Your "tend" is too aseptic unless you are in a fantasy world. (Yes, they did, in the Spanish case they were proud ...

Re: Ukraine War Watch Thread

No, I am not one of your followers, but this is not about your position on what US does, but on what is done on Americans. Do you know of many people around here celebrating every time a British soldier was shot in NI?, every time a HUMVEE was blown-up in Iraq?, any outrage about it? It seems that y...

Re: Ukraine War Watch Thread

So, certain Russian... from Samara... what happened to that Fairy Tale?, or it was a confirmed fantasy? They just slipped away... the third option. Have you been able to get any interviews from those "hostages"? Western military experts say Russia's progress will halt soon due to ammunitio...

Re: Ukraine War Watch Thread

No, Russian goodwill on the Security Council cannot be trusted. There are good reasons to keep that organisation intact and operating, but that does not mean it should be given additional responsibilities. Agreed as long we keep in mind that US cannot be trusted either, who can be trusted? I am not...

Re: Ukraine War Watch Thread

guaranteed by the permanent members of the United Nations Security Council Russia is a member of the Security Council and cannot be trusted to ensure the security of Ukraine against further aggression from Russia.

Re: Ukraine War Watch Thread

I cannot speak Russian... But "unconfirmed reports" does not mean "reliable sources" and it certainly does not mean that it is going to be nor that it will be confirmed; even if you wait until the Five O'clock Follies. Hostages/interviews... "Retreat to industrial area, take...

Re: Ukraine War Watch Thread

Pity no French President visited Fallujah...

And the last coup d'etat in Turkey was stopped neither by twitter nor by "the people", so I don't know what courage of what residents hold back what,
but at least, he is a President, he is supposed to say things like that.
