Our game should not be interfered with politics. So senators look for other things to talk of.

Chrisabig: Putin have not seen anything yet, time will come when he will go on his kneel and beg never to be hard man again.
Beg who? Ur papa or the same 'almighty USA'? USA arrogance is irritating me. They wd have sent their military might against Russia if they can. The time they unilatreally invaded Iraq 4 no just reason in 2003, who sanction them? The thousands of Iraqis who died in that process, who sanction them?. The time they supported rebels fighting Gaddafi, who santion them. They are still supporting rebels fighting in Syria and nobody has sanctioned them. they shd go to hell for all I care. Look, pple with slave mentality like u and badboy25 shd have existed by the time Christopher Columbus reached the west indies in 1492. They 1st persuaded FIFA not to allow Russia to participate in this last world cup hosted by Brazil and when that failed, now they want the next world cup to be hosted in Russia to be shifted to another place. I can understand their puppet Britain's animosity towards FIFA b/c of their loss to both same Russia & Qatar wining the bids. In fact, if I be Putin, I'll occupy eastern Ukraine & call their bluff. The highest they can do is the sanction. The western Europe has become USA puppets to fight their perceived enemies. USA invaded Iraq by forming coalition with the western Europe. NATO countries have become gangsters against Russia. How I wish the BRICS develoment bank will soon take off. They will call bluff of world bank & IMF. Arrant nonsense!

Truth remains whatever is going down in ukraine is down to the actions of the americans. How? When the soviet union fell it was agreed that Nato which is an american and western military alliance will not admit former soviet states into Nato or expand towards russia. But america and its allies did the exact opposite. They started admiting former soviet states into Nato bulgaria, romania, latvia, Lithuania, estonia, slovenia, slovakia. By doing this america was delibrately trying to encircle russia with the Nato alliance boxing it into a corner. Ukraine is the next target of america and its allies and this is a country russia shares its western borders with russia doesn't want this. The US also wants to place a missile defence shield in ukraine trying to nullify russia in case russia launches any missile they will be intercepted. Russia has made its feelings known concerning all this but US no wan hear. To add insult to injury US sponsored the topling of viktor yanukovych a ukrainian president that was loyal to russia. Russia reacted bu seizing crimea and trying to destabilize ukraine in order for it not to join the EU thus joining the Nato alliance. Russia want ukraine to be a buffer country between it and Nato I.e america and its allies. But is that too much to ask? That america not expand its military alliance to russian doorstep? If america wants peace for ukraine it should stop meddling in it, stop its agenda to bring it into the Nato military alliance and russia will back down. SIMPLE! But america no go hear word.

mstik: What is wrong with these people? First they called for sanctions for Nigeria for making homosexuality illegal now they want to remove Russia as the host of the next worldcup Is it that they don't have any issues in their own country that they have enough time to poke-nose in other country's affairs?

Before you go further, go back to your history books, understand international relations between states and nations, remember diplomacy and globalisation, then come back and answer the same question you have just asked.

As for Russia, just like TonyOneWeek says, Dem Go Bow!!! If not today, tomorrow or next, then next decade!

Talking about military might the united states wins no contest about that. But can you expect to go to war with a nuclear armed country and expect the war to stay conventional? Both the US have their nuclear weapons on hair trigger alert. They both have ICBM's(intercontinental balistic missiles, cruise missiles and the rest) It would be foolish for anyone of them to attack each other cos when it comes to nuclear armed conflict it only takes a handful of missiles and everything is up in smokes. Even the US cannot attack russia as it is cos of these weapons. Both countries nuclear stockpile is enough to destroy the whole world ten times over. The only method of dealing with russia is through the use of sanctions, trying to kill the economy of russia and that's the worse they can do. Even if today russia invades ukraine, america will still not attack russia. FACT

America is stronger than russia in all ways. Technologically, economically, militarily, even politically(they control most of the worlds institutions) but america still can't do anyhow to russia because of those nuclear weapons. Take away those weapons and america will invade russia within a twinkle of an eye.

BadBoy25: I just don't like Russia . they are different type of whites ,they are more like animals .they behave like they are black only in white skin with such a backward macho mentality . they are not as civil as sweden,denmark,Germany etc.
Russia is a shiithole nation. they should shut up, get rid of their nuclear weapons and communism, and then shut up and develop and live peacefully like Sweden,Canada,Germany,Japan,Denmark etc.
The United states is the Greatest nation on earth and will be so for a long long time to come . I just don't like Russia until they change their inferior stone age mentality.

I have a serious problem with that part of ur statement(the bolded) what exactly are u implying? That blacks have a backward mentality or r inferior 2 d whites

sexzskil: BadBoy 25 is the only guy here that knows the real stuff in between Russia and US.

Let me use the opportunity to say this again, RUSSIA, CHINA, NORTH KOREA AND IRAN COMBINED CAN NEVER WITHSTAND THE US of A WHEN IT COMES TO A FULL BLOWN WAR. FACT! Listen, almost all the nuclear weapons of these nations i just listed are imitation of America's and Germany's. Most of u peeps here know no damn about international politics. Putin knows his tenure ends soon and is using the opportunity of a true democrat and diplomat in the White House to display all of a sudden balls he grew. This man has been the leader of Russia for good 13 years now and was around during the Bush regime. Why couldn't he got the balls to come up and speak against th many invading activities of mr Bush JNR? Putin was in obscurity all those while. Nub of the matter is a black/mixed diplomat is in Washington and Putin is using d opportunity to shine a bit. Can McCain be the United States' president and one guy called Putin talk? During the recessing years of WW2, the BIG3 enemies of Hitler met in Washinngton to discuss possible outcomes of the fronts in Africa, this were the remarkable words of USSR leader, Putin's old mentor, Josef Stalin said in honour of America: In this war machines are the most prominent tools. All along, Russian has continued to make some 12 thousands fighter jets and ammunitions per month. Btitain makes some eighteen thousands monthly. America and Lend-Lease makes over 30 thousand machines of this sort. Therefore the United States is a nation of machines and it is WITH THESE WE ARE WINNING THE WAR!''---in the writings of German General, Armin Von Roon, War and Remembrance, Herman Wouke, 1976.

Besides Obama can't even interfere in this stuff, until then the United States isn't really interested in one game called FIFA 2018. No nation in history has been like America, the unprecedented giant. Some of you here need to go read about the real historical millitary archievements of this great nation!
Who is this ignorant sex... whatever she calls herself. U & ur badboyfriend25 are the few itis in this forum called NL. Who the hell was the USA b/4 WW2. They only entered the war against Germany when Germany has exhausted its resources to punish Britain, France, USSR etc. Yes Russia then is not the same as Russia now. Remember w/out Russia's defeat of Nazi Germany @ Stalingrad, it wd have been impossible for both ur USA/Britain & et al to defeat the Nazis. So, stop talking rubbish. If Russia/China/Iran/N.Korea combined are not match to ur 'god USA' let them go and invade just one of them. If ur claim of Russia's nuke been imitation of USA's own, let Russia drop one in say New York or best Washington DC & let see the effect 1st. I bet that 1st two nukes (5 tons little boy and fat man) dropped in Hiroshima & Nagasaki respectively) will be a child's play to what they have now. See Israel is busy murdering harmless Palestinians and they are busy supporting them. Two days ago, Obama was shouting that Russia has violated the 1987 treaty on nuclear test. Why the fear if Russian's nuke is a fake one? In fact Putin shd occupy if possible the whole of Ukraine. Rubbish USA & their slave supporters.

So, what's your own contribution on this psyop from the yanks, Miss Foreign Policy? tongue

Is the US begging for world war 3, or has the Obama administration just gone mad because Putin keeps making them look like weasels and he's the only guy standing in-between their domination of Euroasia? Or is it about the BRICS' alternate currency and banking system?

1). Sanctions - and bending Germany over with more sanctions. Then more sanctions.
2). ICC awarding $50 billion against Russia to Yukos. A case it has no jurisdiction over.
3). Militarisation of all the Baltic states.
4). Never ending propaganda.
5). And now the world cup.

These people have gone bonkers! grin

And didn't the US just supply Israel with more weapons despite the fact that Israel keeps committing war crimes, bombing UN schools all over Gaza?

Don't mind them. They think with their economic power & puppet Europe thinking that they can't survive w/out them, they can bully any person they don't like. they have met their match. In fact, Russia shd stop ferrying their astronauts to the ISS. The ones there shd stay & wait till USA is capable of going back to space. For now, they depend on Russian's Soyuz.

All these their double std is making terrorist attacks more against them. They support undemocratic but friendly countries in the middle east and go against those who they can't control, e.g. Syria and Libya.

Be prepared for world war 3 - just one mistake at this stage, and the real shooting match will start. It's all a joke till they push the Russian bear to the limit, and who knows, it might respond. And when it does, it's not going to be pretty.

The sanctions are coming thick and fast. Its either he backs down, stop funnelling weapons to the pro-russian rebels and allow the conflict to fizzle out. In this case america wins they get to keep ukraine, they'll lift their sanctions. Or he can decide to go the other extreme invade ukraine and call america's bluff. There's kuku nothing america will do. But those sanctions will increase and they will be seriously severe. What step will mr putin take I'm eagerly waiting to see

Nick Clegg is inconsequential, and I'm sure he knows sports and politics shouldn't mix. He was most likely speaking on America's behalf, for propaganda purpose for "special friendship" - but that's definitely something the MPs out here will back.

With the Yukos judgement - all members of ICC can seize Russian assets. And that will escalate things.

Anyway, doesn't America share borders with Russia in Alaska and Siberia axis? I think the two countries need to take their cat and mouse game there, and leave the rest of the world alone. Winner takes all battle. Don't you think?

Care to explain to the world how Putin is a beast?

And if you were in his shoes, what would you have done differently?

He didn't overthrow a legitimate government by spending $5 billion. His vice president's son wasn't appointed the head of Ukraine's oil company. I don't see Russian military expanding eastwards into Europe, and expanding into the Americas to surround America.

So what are his crimes?

They alleged that Russians shot down MH17, yet can't provide proofs. However, pentagon was quick to provide satellite proofs of Russians shooting rockets into Ukraine a few days ago.

i don't think it would get to that.

Russia can seize assets within its borders too. in fact they are threatening exxon already and keep in mind Russia has more fdi inside her territory as compared to what is outside.

besides there is an appeal to consider
