Big Blitz Posted March 1 Posted March 1 Yep. The future is a relationship with Russia to combat China. But hey. France! 1
JimmyNoodles Posted March 1 Posted March 1 Gentlemen, I have to sign off. Just want to emphasize that no Magas out there apparently support Ukraine. Not one definitive "yes" to we support Ukraine, you know with actual support (money and/or weapons). I know, "our thoughts and prayers go out to the Ukranian people." 1

This is old news. Expand Yes I know this. Also, China and Russia wouldn’t hesitate to use them against us. But go Ukraine for the “Big Guy!” To me, the most alarming thing I heard from Zelenskyy yesterday was this: "But you have nice ocean and don't feel now, but you will feel it in the future." Was that a prediction or a threat? By a "threat" I mean this: is Zelenskyy fomenting a nuclear showdown with Russia so that the futures of Ukraine and the United States are inextricably intertwined? Trump told Zelenskyy he had no cards to play... but maybe Zelenskyy thinks a nuclear showdown is his royal flush. This is my concern. I don't understand why the Democrat/Media Complex does not see how Zelenskyy is eager to play with the lives of all Americans.

Expand You have never suggested any reason why Soleimani was killed/ People who do not acknowledge the other side of an issue they criticize are not to be taken seriously.

The Frankish Reich Posted March 2 Posted March 2 https://www.wsj.com/opinion/putin-wins-the-trump-zelensky-oval-office-spectacle-e23e9b21?mod=hp_opin_pos_1 The only headline that matters: Putin Wins. JD Vance reminds us why he was a terrible choice. The meeting between Messrs. Trump and Zelensky started out smoothly enough. “It’s a big commitment from the United States, and we appreciate working with you very much, and we will continue to do that,” Mr. Trump said of the mineral deal. Mr. Zelensky showed photos of Ukrainians mistreated as prisoners of war. “That’s tough stuff,” Mr. Trump said. But then the meeting, in front of the world, descended into recriminations. The nose dive began with an odd interjection from Vice President JD Vance, who appeared to be defending Mr. Trump’s diplomacy, which Mr. Zelensky hadn’t challenged. Mr. Zelensky rehearsed the many peace agreements Mr. Putin has shredded and essentially asked Mr. Vance what would be different this time. Mr. Vance unloaded on Mr. Zelensky—that he was “disrespectful,” low on manpower, and gives visitors to Ukraine a “propaganda” tour. President Trump appeared piqued by Mr. Zelensky’s suggestion that the outcome in Ukraine would matter to the U.S. “Your country is in big trouble. You’re not winning,” Mr. Trump said at one point. Why did the Vice President try to provoke a public fight? Mr. Vance has been taking to his X.com account in what appears to be an effort to soften up the political ground for a Ukraine surrender, most recently writing off Mr. Putin’s brutal invasion as a mere ethnic rivalry. Mr. Vance dressed down Mr. Zelensky as if he were a child late for dinner. He claimed the Ukrainian hadn’t been grateful enough for U.S. aid, though he has thanked America countless times for its support. This was not the behavior of a wannabe statesman.
