As i said in my first post on this look at the historical geo politics at play. Its always been on the cards for Putin to attack a former USSR state.

Yes it has, that's not in question. It's the why now reason that's the unknown, can't see it being greater resources in Ukraine as you alluded to though mate.

Israel being used as a broker of peace is a smart move. A 3 hour meeting with Putin then straight to a meeting with Scholz and a call with Biden. Hopefully they can speed up an end to this grave situation.

I can only comment on what Putin has said, I'll never know his mind. From what Putin has said, the reasoning is that he wants to rid Ukraine of Nazis and stop Ukraine being a NATO stooge on Russia's doorstep.

I think it wise to watch some of Jimmy Dore's coverage on this this matter on YouTube. In essence, as I've been saying, this has all been crafted by America, specifically Victoria Nuland of the then US state dept - now current Under Secretary - who not only formented the coup in 2014, she also hand picked those to run Ukraine after the then president got toppled with recorded proofs...she was the one who said "f4ck the EU" during the coup.

Countless academics, intellectuals, policy advisors/makers, defence chiefs, you name it, they've all been warning not to agitate Russia in the way that they have, hell, even lunatics like Henry Kissinger have said don't do this. None of the advice has been listened to, it's been totally ignored, arms have been funneled in since before the coup in 2014, the neo Nazis have become part of the greater Ukrainian army, the Minsk Accord has been ignored by Ukraine, the neo Nazis are now saying they've got more Javelin missiles that the UK has sitting stockpiled.

All, absolute crap as usual.

Parroting these "excuses" just makes you look like one of Putin's lackeys.

The long and short of it is that he has illegally invaded a sovereign nation, he has killed countless innocent civilians and further destabilised an already fragile world. All this talk of NATO and Nazi's doesn't justify any of what he has done, and repeating it without proper thinking just plays into his hands. Stop it.

As for your link, I switched off after 5 seconds when Jimmy Dore said "The Ukraine" which either demonstrates his ignorance of the situation or that he aligns with Putin and is therefore not worth any time whatsoever.

Looks like that's been cut and pasted straight from a QAnon article

Ffs TC, outdoing yourself with the ill informed odious, insidious posts. Hawking that pathetic tripe around is a new low. I made my view clear on Putin apologists earlier.

Unfortunately you are being emotional which is clearly stoping you from being rational and applying logic on this subject. Just because the presenter uses the words "The Ukraine", coincidentally a poster on here uses that exact same phrase which i've not seen you condemn - doesn't matter a jot myself - facts are facts wether you like them or not and doesn't diminish those facts just because certain phrases are used outside of the content and context of those facts. Essentially you're employing ad hominem/logical fallacy argument.

I'll agree with you that Putin shouldn't have invaded as I've already said in previous posts of mine. What I've attempted to do in my posts on this matter is to try and give another view and opinion/balance thats not being widely circulated in the media which gives a different perspective as to Putin's 'why'. The Russians have always stated that NATO expansion into Ukraine is their "red line", this warning was ignored and as we see, these are the consequences.

I don't know where you're getting your information from, although I can take a very good guess; i'll ask you this: don't you think it wise to have a broad and varied spectrum of information, even if that information conflicts with other information so as to get the 'whole' picture, or best you can garner from that all gathered information?

I'll refer you back to Jimmy Dore as what he's been putting out recently is very good, very informative. and easy to digest, and most importantly check to see if that information is in fact true. Whilst I mention Jimmy Dore, something that I would like to say about him is that I disagree intensely on a lot of his political positions, I'm not a fan on the whole, just so we're clear. Funnily enough I wasn't aware of his recent content as I don't usually watch his stuff, it was a friend who told me about his most recent content and thought I'd share it here.

Why do you think it's upto you to attempt(again) to make a case for Putin's war when you disagree with his actions? It's not and you can't, pretty simple Mkay.

I never said it was up to me. I'm just merely giving more context, a bit like someone saying 'man went to the moon', yeah, man did go to the moon, but how and why did he go to the moon.
