It’s frustrating to see this sort of thing, planning on Russia continuing to be a threat into the 2030’s, when Europe could nullify the threat Russia poses by providing more direct support to Ukraine. The war in Ukraine has done more damage to russia than the 1990’s, just imagine what could happen if they received more support.

Obligatory Fuck Trump and Fuck The American government you two faced putin knob jockeys.

Poor cat. Although considering all cats are lactose intolerant it’s probably for the best.

Hate the government not the people. No one chooses to be born.

That’s a valid take and ai apologise for my snippy response, I was carrying personal baggage into the argument.

Do you want smog? Do you like every road smelling like burning gasoline? Then cars need these chips to run their catalytic converters.

She played the “Blame the immigrants” card and still got removed, that’s unusual to see. Here’s hoping the coalition here in Australia sees that and chooses to stop blaming immigrants for everything…

*Guns not money, they needed time to recover before Russia did a Russia again and invaded it’s neighbours.

Why do we give this clown any attention? Nothing the Kremlin says is worth considering as it has no correlation to what they will do.

2077 here we come…

Nuclear has only been used once, before it was known to the world and taboo, and there are plenty of strong arguments that the war was already over by the time the bombs dropped.

Chemical and biological weapons are hilariously imprecise and always back fire to some degree and are largely ineffectual (Look up mustard gas in the world wars for examples of how they were useless at actually taking ground or removing opposition)

And starvation like strategic bomb doesn’t really effect the war fighting capacity of a country and typically increases civilian support for the army to spite the ones inflicting them.

Countries use these weapons (aside from the first) because they are the epitome of “this is scary therefore it will work” but that’s an emotional argument not a factual one.

War crimes cause long lasting damage to their victims but don’t achieve military gains. Because if they worked they wouldn’t be war crimes they would just be war. when we created the list of war crimes scholars and generals worked together to make a list of strategies that the scholars wanted removed for humanitarian reasons and generals wanted removed for being ineffectual.

They aren’t though? No war crime has ever helped win a war.

Remove the only reason we agreed to protect you or we won’t protect you… FFS America would you please remove this party of morons from power already?

Suicide… Sure and I’m the king of England…

Russia is winning it’s inevitable, so please stop helping Ukraine beat out arses erm I mean stop prolonging the war (Did I do that right daddy Putin? Will you stop standing on my neck now?)

Does this meen America is Crazy Dave?

Ah yes, I’m sure the nanny state has great ideas on how to enforce this without infringing on everyones right to privacy…

Everything Trump has ever done (not said) indicates the exact opposite.

I wonder if this is part of why gen Z is turning conservative.

The goal of a lot of these attacks are explicitly to provoke a dramatic response, by quietly dealing with these threats Europe denies Russia their victory. It’s also cheaper to just fix the damage then start a war or escalate. Russia’s goal for these attacks appear to be provoke a kinetic response that the Kremlin can point to to justify further wars and mobilization.
