I mean in WW2 I get the reason for the war, not for the Holocaust and things. For WW1 they were all looking for a war and were basically already fighting. Right now they are just fighting for no reason, “for Russians in Ukraine”. Looks like a Hitler excuse

Thats what im sayin

[quaint wren]

or Syria for instance

[pulsar heart]

Many of his arguments were false or irrational, as he claimed his goal was to protect people subjected to bullying and genocide and aim for the "demilitarisation and denazification" of Ukraine. There has been no genocide in Ukraine and it is a vibrant democracy led by a president who is Jewish. "How could I be a Nazi?" said Volodymr Zelensky, who likened Russia's onslaught to Nazi Germany's invasion in World War Two.

[signal void]

gotta separate from main convos not everyone wants to talk abt it ig

[kindred ingot]

same as war on terror: doesnt compare in scale

[pulsar heart]

President Putin has frequently accused Ukraine of being taken over by extremists, ever since its pro-Russian president, Viktor Yanukovych, was ousted in 2014 after months of protests against his rule. Russia then retaliated by seizing the southern region of Crimea and triggering a rebellion in the east by Russian-backed separatists who have fought Ukrainian forces in a war that has claimed 14,000 lives.

[quaint wren]

still its just a war between 2 countries I hope it stays like this (not more)

[topaz onyx]

I'm going dark

Where I'm going there's no internet connection

[kindred ingot]

A war between two huge countries which will cause thousands of lives

[quaint wren]

welcome to greek villages

[timber wigeon]

It’s just egoism

[quaint wren]

still I hope no more countries participate and EU stops russia

[honest quartz]

The fact that a full on war which i only heard about in history books is going on in 2022 is insane

[kindred ingot]

Russia will not be stopped by sanctions i will tell you that

[arctic nymph]

EU stopping would mean history repeating itself tbh

[quaint wren]

idk how to feel

[quaint wren]

but there was no eu before ww2

[timber wigeon]

Wdym?

[kindred ingot]

Russia has a huge gold reserve and can survive with sanctions

[timber wigeon]

There will always be people like this

[arctic nymph]

hm

[timber wigeon]

Like putin

[quaint wren]

its not allies vs axis now it is EU vs Attackers

[timber wigeon]

Or …Yeah yk

[quaint wren]

NY Times is so much better honestly you can look at the ratings from NewsGuard it speaks for itself

[pulsar heart]

In the weeks and months before the invasion, Russia spelt out a series of demands for "security guarantees" from the West, most of them involving Nato. And President Putin partly blamed his decision to attack on Nato's eastward expansion. He had earlier complained Russia has "nowhere further to retreat to - do they think we'll just sit idly by?"

[quaint wren]

MSN

[timber wigeon]

NATO’s eastward expansion? What?

[pulsar heart]

"For us it's absolutely mandatory to ensure Ukraine never, ever becomes a member of Nato," said Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov.

[timber wigeon]

Yeah east bloc still there

USSR fell, but it’s still the same basically

[pulsar heart]

Mr Putin's other core demands are that Nato does not deploy "strike weapons near Russia's borders", and that it removes forces and military infrastructure from member states that joined the alliance from 1997.

[kindred ingot]

I think NATO expansion is just an excuse

[timber wigeon]

Yeah he can shut up

He just wants a war that’s it

[pulsar heart]

That means Central Europe, Eastern Europe and the Baltics. In reality Russia wants Nato to return to its pre-1997 borders.

[quaint wren]

I bet this question by now is on the FAQ but does russia want back soviet union but without communism

[kindred ingot]

Putin wants to secure his legacy and place in the history books.

[still stone]

nuclear war?

[quaint wren]

that is dangerous!

[timber wigeon]

:/

[pulsar heart]

President Putin has also argued that if Ukraine joined Nato, the alliance might try to recapture Crimea.

[sharp flare]

nuclear weapons.... 💀

[timber wigeon]

Might come soon

[jagged basin]

no it won’t

[sharp flare]

didn't he say

[quaint wren]

NO NO NO NO....

[still stone]

this is an old power plant

[jagged basin]

it’ll just be threats

[still stone]

yeah

like the cold war

[jagged basin]

nobody wants nuclear fallout

[timber wigeon]

Yeah unless..

[sharp flare]

he said he won't hesitate to use nuclear if any external force interrupts

[quaint wren]

Ukraine is just one black sea towards the north

[sharp flare]

putin aint caring about that man

[pulsar heart]

Nato is a defensive alliance with an open-door policy to new members, and its 30 member states are adamant that will not change.

Ukraine's president has called for "clear, feasible timeframes" to join Nato, but there is no prospect of it happening for a long time, as Germany's chancellor has made clear.

[still stone]

he didnt say that but ok

[quaint wren]

oh god..... why?

[timber wigeon]

The fact that they’ve already attacked out of the blue and using bs excuses or excuses similar to what the Nazi used already tells me it’s fked

[jagged basin]

no trust me, nobody wants nuclear fallout

[sharp flare]

he did couple of days back 21st or 22nd

[timber wigeon]

He said something similar, but not about nuclear forces

[kindred ingot]

he said it indirectly, no?

[sharp flare]

ik i don't want no one wants

[sharp flare]

he did i've seen the speech

[jagged basin]

then Putin doesn’t want it either

it’ll just be threats

[still stone]

its a good threat to use

[timber wigeon]

He said that he’ll do something not expected if they intervene or along those lines

[kindred ingot]

He said immediate response

well not entirely but yes

[still stone]

nuclear war wont happen

[sharp flare]

china sent in planes into taiwan today

[timber wigeon]

When you’re on your last hopes you’ll do anything possible if you were willing to attack in the first place

[kindred ingot]

Nothing out of the ordinary.

[quaint wren]

almost every war started like this and it didnt go very well

[timber wigeon]

Then can they not fight back?

On a regular war

[sharp flare]

even hiro & naga were supposed to be threats right?

[timber wigeon]

No, because they’re risking that someone goes over the limit

[pulsar heart]

Airports and military headquarters were hit first, near cities across Ukraine, including the main Boryspil international airport in Kyiv. Then tanks and troops rolled into Ukraine in the north-east, near Kharkiv, a city of 1.4 million people; in the east near Luhansk, and from neighbouring Belarus in the north. Russian troops landed in Ukraine's big port cities of Odesa and Mariupol too.

[worn pendant]

why would they launch nukes

[sharp flare]

ye ik but at the same time as invasion of ukraine... kinda sus

[timber wigeon]

If desperate they will

If they’re about to lose a war for example

[worn pendant]

Difference being Japan didn't have nukes

[sharp flare]

ballistic set up and launched btw

[jagged basin]

when we didn’t understand what the fuck is the consequence of a nuclear bomb

[quaint wren]

to scare away EU

[jagged basin]

and (!) no other country has nukes

[sharp flare]

u do realise the extent putin can go to right

[kindred ingot]

Happens all the time, i dont think it means anything special, even tho this is the perfect time to strike for China

[still stone]

you know the west would fire one back right?

[sharp flare]

it isn;'t impossible to make btw

[marsh island]

No

[jagged basin]

I think you’re blind

[quaint wren]

well that would be world war

[jagged basin]

I was talking about Hiroshima and Nagasaki

[sharp flare]

heard of n korea?

[marsh island]

There has been plenty instances in the past, a lot hotter than this. And nukes haven't been used

[jagged basin]

ARE YOU BLIND MY GOD

[sharp flare]

ah ok

[timber wigeon]

He’s already attacked out of the blue. If someone’s crazy in mind they’ll do it

[sharp flare]

bro i just saw that kalm man johann

[marsh island]

No nukes in the korean war for instance

[worn pendant]

it would be extremely dumb to launch nuke at this time considering the fact a lot of countries have nukes from both sides

[sharp flare]

he even threatened to have controlled nuclear explosions if another body intervened

[quaint wren]

Nukes and bio weapons should be war crimes

[timber wigeon]

I don’t say they’d use it now, but if a war was to happen and they were on the losing side who would stop them from using them? Common sense, yes, but they don’t make any sense

[sharp flare]

they are i think

[marsh island]

They do make sense

[quaint wren]

thank god

[timber wigeon]

What’s their sense to start a war?

[quaint wren]

expansion idk?

[jagged basin]

nukes are threats, no side will willingly launch nukes when more than 5 countries can all launch their own nukes back

[marsh island]

My not very educated guess would be: make sure Ukraine doesn't join NATO or the EU

[timber wigeon]

In 2022 imperialism and colonialism

[quaint wren]

economical benefits?

idk

[sharp flare]

reclaim ussr broken parts

[kindred ingot]

War is not good for economy.

[timber wigeon]

They still treat Ukraine like it’s the USSR times

[jagged basin]

and I think you’re forgetting this point, because for Russia it’s more than just one country that can launch nukes back

[still stone]

The new UK sanctions in brief
These are the sanctions Prime Minister Boris Johnson has just announced the UK will put on Russia:

[brittle zephyr]

Sickening

Everytime I see Qatar, I think of that corrupt asshole Sepp Blatter

[quaint wren]

You'll be amazed at how gullible the human mind is

If you feed it the right amount of data

That's why misinformation is a massive problem

It's not entirely their fault either

satire account

it was made this month, 8 or something followers and thats the only post

[quaint wren]

he got suspended

[safe marten]

yeah problem solved

[quaint wren]

as you can see they're now taking Kiyv. It gets worse every minute

[native hatch]

Twitter mods must have died of stress and braincell loss by now

[quaint wren]

dam

I think I hear a Chinnock and a jet-

jets maybe

or chinooks

I saw thing happening weeks ago and some people in here were like they will never happen

I hope this ends quick

it wont

its like too much to stop so quickly

With the way they're going it's gonna be like Afghanistan

Lol the media is so dumb

[native hatch]

I mean, we can’t say anything for certain but this could be a long haul

[quaint wren]

We are going to ask Russians what they think

Dude do you realize if they actually say what they think they will get arrested

[native hatch]

They don’t care about the truth, they care about selling papers

[quaint wren]

i mean a “full scale invasion”(ukrainian officials) doesnt just stop so quick

Many reports are saying that Russia will try to take Kiyv today tho.

[vale verge]

Is the media dumb or is it us who actually believe their shit?

[quaint wren]

i doubt it will be today but we dont know how fast theyre going

[still stone]

tonight i reckon

theyll have kyiv

[quaint wren]

yes, the issue is "then what happens?". Should we just let Russia invade a counrty?

They'll take Ukraine,
We take all the refugees, the world goes on

[still stone]

well what can we do without getting involved and starting a huge war?

We've put very harsh sanctions on russia now

[native hatch]

Bruhhh

[next cloak]

that looks more of a crashed while taking off thing

[quaint wren]

Idk, but after Ukraine, the baltics countries will be next... I hope the economics sanctions works

Russia will forever be terrorized by underground resistance fighters, they'll impose marshall law, commit human rights violations

civilians will go to poland, us, canada, uk,
and any other welcoming country

[minor ember]

highly recommend not taking this account at face value. it is not verifiable and thus not to be trusted

[dull hull]

deleted sir i will not post from this account again

[quaint wren]

I work in immagration,
I can't go 10 minutes without seeing a Ukrainian Passport

Ukrainians will populate U.S. and other countries by a big margin soon

They are getting married to U.S. spouses real quick lol

when's Biden speaking?

When he wake up

bruh

[pulsar heart]

Won't do much - people can't take Biden seriously.

People make fun of him on how he talks and stutters

[quaint wren]

The US is the only country that could save Ukraine with economics sanctions rn

so it's important to know what choices Joe made

Syria took one breath and we tomahawk the general in his private car and made him go lights out during trump

with biden, we won't do shit

[pulsar heart]

Not much anyone can do - without causing a huge scale war

[strong bolt]

what happening

[next cloak]

war needs to be avoided

[strong bolt]

ok

[quaint wren]

War already is unavoidable

[pulsar heart]

Although NATO has around 100K troops ready for deployment - doubt they will be sent anytime soon

[next cloak]

economies will collapse if it is not averted

[quaint wren]

if we literally don't want WW3, all we can do is just keep out of it

[strong bolt]

hope so

[quaint wren]

I bet a Russia suffering from enormous economics losses will stop eventually

[pastel mural]

Bruuuh will china invade Taiwan now

[quaint wren]

A global war will not happen unless they push on poland, then, we are going gloves off

the worlds government pretty much decided to turn their backs on ukraine, they are going to let them take it

[next cloak]

waaa

[quaint wren]

We have marines on poland right now

China and Russia are alone. They wont last long (monetary speaking)

[brittle zephyr]

they are using the distraction of UA

[native hatch]

Why would they

[pastel mural]

Sad

[brittle zephyr]

uhhhh

[quaint wren]

China wont invade Taiwan that's for sure

[pastel mural]

Heh

[brittle zephyr]

why?

[next cloak]

millions of dollars of equipment ammo fuel and lives are getting wasted for a piece of land

[quaint wren]

that will be WW3 if it happens

[pulsar heart]

Im from Poland myself, but I live in the UK. Polish sources state that refugees will be taken from Ukraine and will have access to free healthcare.

[quaint wren]

and no one wants that

[native hatch]

They already claim Taiwan as theirs

[brittle zephyr]

exactly

[quaint wren]

it would be ww3

[quaint wren]

This^

China aircraft test taiwans airspace hundreds of time every year, it's just a gas post

[native hatch]

Which John Cena fogor💀

[quaint wren]

The US will step in

IF China invades Taiwan

[next cloak]

china might find this as an oppurtunity to invade taiwan lets hope so it wont happen

[safe marten]

now would be the "best" time for them to do it since the rest of the world is distracted with ukraine but then stuff like that has happened regularly before

[native hatch]

And Tibet potentially?

[pulsar heart]

Russian Sources claim that they do not want Ukraine to join NATO - as therefore the alliance might want to retake Crimea.

[brittle zephyr]

that was a bold move

[quaint wren]

they won't. China is protected by the US

[brittle zephyr]

but not the apology

[next cloak]

tibet is under control of china

[next cloak]

taiwan?
