Russia and Ukraine

Speaking of whataboutism, which you accuse me of. Back to the point of "Putin bad". Pretty sure no one here has said otherwise. That doesn't make it ok for NATO to attack Russia's nuclear triad and escalate that much closer to WWIII.

No, it's not acting in a supporting role of Ukrainian forces that does not make it a NATO attack and there is no need for a red line and the lack of one does not make this a Nato operation.

The creed of every bullshitter and conspiracy nut around. You are just the sad and pathetic end of a fucking long conga line.

The mob boss having the undercover snitch killed is a crazy conspiracy theory, since it can't 100 % be proven. Must've been a random coincidence, and we should give the mob boss the benefit of the doubt. That's what you sound like. And Jeff Epstein killed himself too.

Do you mean NATO defending another country from Russia? Who will never use its Nuclear Arsenal if it even still has a functional one? WW3 isn't happening... Dodgy

I'm not repeating the same talking points. I came into the thread to talk about the NATO attack on Russia's nuclear triad which happened fairly recently, but people brought it back to "Putin bad, self defense, etc", which I agree with. Putin is bad, and the attack on the base is self defense and in a vaccuum it is entirely justifiable, but the world doesn't operate in a vaccuum, and therefore I consider that point moot.

So a nuclear attack from Russia is just as likely whether Ukraine attacks Russia's nuclear triad or not? It doesn't even escalate things a thousandth of a percent and Russia is just shrugging this off like any other attack? Is that what I am to believe?

Did you read my link? Boris Johnson, publicly against any peace deals with Russia. Former US officials confirm peace deal was in place and ready to move forward. Bori Johnson then has a meeting with Zelenskyy, and the peace deal immediately falls apart following the meeting. Put 2 and 2 together, my friend. Is Cosby innocent? Are you still waiting for 100 % proof to come in. Am I a tin foil hatter for thinking that most of those women are probably telling the truth? What can be asserted without evidence can be dismissed without evidence, amirite, or the world doesn't always quite work that way? Jarred Kushner's billions of dollars deal with the Saudis is not corruption either, right? I mean, Jarred Kushner has not been criminally charged with anything, so stop being a conspiracy theorist tin foil hatter, am I right? I don't need to see Kushner behind bars or to have 100 % proof to see that he's as corrupt or worse than other elites. You keep waiting for that prosecution though, and in the time being, you can give Kushner the benefit of the doubt all you'd like, but I prefer not to go through life wearing a blindfold.

The only nation culpable for this war is the one who started it. But that seems to be way over your head.

My grandma would be a bike, if she had wheels.
Unfortunately (for a moron like you), grandma erm Russia does not even hold the position to be at war with Ukraine, let alone NATO, remember?
God, you are so stupid.

Puh-leaze
NATO attacked nothing. But guess who attacked, annexed and invaded stuff. Lets wait and see if you get it. But i am not holding my breath.

Tensions were bad enough before... Russia annexed Crimea, tensions were bad enough before it invaded Ukraine

Why are you doing this to yourself? Why do you actively participate in getting so publicly humiliated? Is that a kink of yours?

Where did I backtrack? I was asking a question when I questioned the US' involvement in the attack on the base, not making a declarative statement.

Everything you posted is irrelevant. We know Russia invading Ukraine was bad, for the millionth time. Ukraine attacking the nuclear triad is an awful escalation when you think that the war on the ground is already won by Ukraine. Why escalate such a massive degree when you are already winning?

You are still arguing countries should let other countries invade and just roll over, for the sole reason the invader is supposed to be stronger. Ironically enough, what we currently see is that the russian army is not able to defeat the ukrainian one. None brings nuclear war to the table, but cowards / idots like you. You want Ukrainians to give up everything because your pants are brown up to your neck!? Tough shit.
If your house would be in a country that was invaded, if your freedom, culture and life would be at stake you wouldnt pontificate this bullcrap.

Fuck you, hypocrite.

Boris Johnson saying stuff publicly is evidence for which conspiracy exactly?  Hilarious
Which part of "Boris Johnson isnt NATOS spokesperson" didnt you parse when Thump told you?`Which part of that do you want me to explain?

Accept NATO has not attacked the nuclear triad and this is just a repeat of blaming NATO and raving about a nuclear apocalypse that's never happening. No, it's self-defense and Putin is a monster whether in a vacuum or not therefore it's not a moot point it's the only relevant point.

I repeat Russia never going to use its Nuclear arsenal even if Ukraine launched attacks into Russian territory. It's never going to happen even assuming Russia still has the capability to do it.
