1484529 2022-02-24 18:44:00 OK, I'll say it! Stupid bastard politicians going to war. Get a life you idiots. I would say 99.9999% of people don't want wars. Just the stupid minority that do. Mostly made up of politicians and armament manufacturers.

Sorry, had to rant a bit. Pretty sad it has ended like this. Very Hitler like approach by Russia. Liebesraum, I think he called it?

1484530 2022-02-24 20:17:00 this is exactly what the USA has been doing for the last 50+ years .
not an excuse , just an observation. We can do it, you cant sort thing .

I'd be interested to know if the Russian public actually support this or not .
Those in power seem to need an 'enemy' of some sort to rally support of the masses .

1484531 2022-02-24 21:08:00 Just heard on the steam radio that 1600 protesters in Moscow, against the Russian govt taking the country to war, have been arrested.

And yes, the Yanks are as bad as anyone!

1484532 2022-02-24 22:37:00 Wether it's true or not, but I heard that Putin only went to war because East Ukraine have been trying to leave the ukraine and join Russia.
But that doesn't fit in with the popular media opinion, so it must be false, right, because the media only report all the truth, not just some of it?

1484533 2022-02-24 23:53:00 Putin's reasons for invading the Ukraine sound very much like Hitler's reasons in the late 1930s. Putin's main objective is to rebuild the old Soviet Union. Watch out the rest of the old soviet states you're next. paulw (1826)

Stalin actually.
My mum hates Russia, well she would, Hungary 1956....

Before we feel all righteous we have an army too........oh yeah, they "peacekeep". With guns.

WWI, WWII were the same, started with one country wanting to own anothers land etc and the rest joined in.

Pity humans can't learn compassion and sharing.

In 1939 France sent a few troops into Germany when Poland was invader but withdrew without doing anything.
If they had made signs of doing more themn I am sure the German military would haver caused Hitler to back off to some extent.

I recall reading an articles about how the far right and new age groups merging are such a bad thing. I wonder if Putin is going to act like Hitler too, with his astrology and signes and leylines etc
