One for the comic book nerds.
Had to look that up.
Putin the master strategist strikes again
How can you use the words 'all is good' in light if the atrocities that people are suffering in Ukraine? I know they're not your family but...The other message of course it’s sending is go into NATO territory Mr Putin you have a problem. Stay out of it and all is good
And Biden and his administration have also said that zekensky needs to be realistic.
so it’s a win win really from a world peace perspective- not there’s any threat to that anyway
...apart from the huge number of atrocities committed, the people killed, displaced or being forced to live under occupation.The other message of course it’s sending is go into NATO territory Mr Putin you have a problem. Stay out of it and all is good

That has nothing to do with what I said about your comment. Usual deflection.Its fairly obvious the west won’t be involved or get involved unless borders are crossed

Addressing your comment, that's true with regard to NATO borders. However, a border has already been crossed.
It was a different point so it was a deflection.A nato border hasn’t hardly a deflection but a fact
It was a different point so it was a deflection.
The border between Russia and Ukraine is also a fact.
So what? Other countries have been engaged in conflict without a mass involvement from every nato country
As it borders NATO countries there will be more interest but whatever the talk there is not going to be any direct action
In fact a cynical person could view the rhetoric from the White House suits a pretty obvious foreign policy view for decades that Russia is a big enemy and far more a threat than China (not true in reality)
So the best way to drain Russia resources and to look interested in to egg on the invaded country and let the occupation go on and on
No attempt has been made at negotiating some form of peace or even a cease fire which in itself is rather odd
No attempt? So all the times Ukrainian officials met for talks with Russian ones didn’t count?
No attempt at mitigation from the us and NATO to get a practical solution and a settlement

Tbh I think the prevailing view in the Biden WH is that China is much more of a threat than Russia, and a lot of the US response to the Ukraine invasion is all about signalling to China what will happen if it tries something similar with Taiwan.
Which would basically see us telling Ukraine to suck it up and hand over territory just as we did 85 years ago in Czechoslovakia
Well it's obviously not perfect, but I guess it's just showing that it isn't just walk in and people roll over - it takes resource and hassle.What would happen?
Well as ever with you the comparison is somewhat spurious
What would happen?
Why is it spurious? Please explainWell as ever with you the comparison is somewhat spurious
And won't answer as to whether he thinks Trump was a good President or not.Ain’t in funny how someone who wants us to do nothing can still find the energy to slate others nations and their leaders for not doing as much as us. Duplicity.
Why is it spurious? Please explain

It's clear what the similarities are but you seem unable to explain your claim that it is spurious.Why? The poster who made the comment has offered zero explanation as to the “striking similarities”

Well let’s see
1937
Hitler decides there is a high number of ethnic Germans on Czechoslovak soil who are ‘being oppressed’
Hitler demands the territory be handed over
Munich agreement is signed bowing to the demand but does nothing except give Germany a head start on the subsequent invasion
2022
Putin complains of mistreatment of Russians in Donetsk and Luhansk
Putin invades from 3 directions under the aim of ‘liberating’ the oppressed Russians
Grendel proposes giving him what he wants and calls it spurious to make the same comparison as the head of the army
Let him crack on with it you said. How would things have turned out if we did?
Russian forces withdraw from Snake Island, strategically very important. Apparently as a result of Western missile systems.
Though Russia claim they are leaving as a goodwill gesture
Amazing in light of all the evidence that you can't see he was terrible. Telling people to inject bleach alone is enough.Oh dear is the UKIP Tonester off again?
Why you drone on I have no idea. I’m not American and I don’t live in America so I have no idea if he was good or not. I don’t actually care. As Jon Sopel said in a good article at least the chaos he bought was vaguely amusing compared to someone who looks like he should be in a care home
I couldn’t care less and I have no opinion on him. He was elected democratically and then unelected im not really interested
