You don't even have respect for your Christian brother.

We have not been stupid for supporting Russia all along and I'm very happy that someone like pope is standing up for the truth while meaning frustrated and brainwashed OSU IPOB JEW PIGS and some other fools keeps criticising Russia by standing up against America's aggression and bully.

Only a clown blames this war on NATO.

Russian propaganda uses this obvious lie as a cover to justify their long held goal of annexing Ukraine.

We must not forget how the international community did their best to plead with Putin not to start war.

Anyway, I wonder what he’s gained now that Sweden and Finland are set to join NATO within a few months grin

If the Pope really said this, na real falling of hand.
Do you know Kyiv was once the capital of USSR for hundreds of years?
Do you know Alaska was once part of Russia but they sold the region to US?
Do you know the distance between US and Russia is less than 4 miles at their closest point?

Now, do you know everything you think you know about this conflict is actually American propaganda?

Do your own research and your eyes will open

Maybe.

But it does not make it right

Taking the comment to the extreme, we can safely say it was iraq and Afghanistan's fault that Bush and the US bombed them.

Yes, Russia has a right to safe borders. Not at the expense of Ukrainian lives and property

Well, Ukraine should have stayed out of what is surely not their business then.
Afghanistan asked for what they got. And as for Iraq, Saddam was installed by the West and removed by them so same same

Putin was right to respond as he rightly did, but now that lives are being lost and Ukraine being totally ruined, anything that can be done to save lives is welcomed. Part of that should entail the global criminalization of NATO and the designation of the association as that of vandals and bloodsuckers embarassed..

The US "Javelin" had made nonsense of armoured tanks. The tanks are easily blown into pieces like balloons. The Javelin comes with 2 war heads and gives you the opportunity to fire and change position and this makes it so difficult for enemies to track where the attack comes from. Whenever Javelin is involved, the tanks that position in one place are sure for destructions and trying to tactically maneuver, still no escape because whichever way, Javelin the king of destruction will track you. Anytime Javelin is in action, it can't return without delivering its message successfully. What made Russian Commander exclaimed, "tanks are now useless and appears like toys.".

The Pope spoke the plain truth.
NATO barked at Putin's door and Biden was instead calling him to come out for dialogue. He came out and condemned the barking at his door. The other NATO members folded their arms looking at him like a stupid man. Putin warned them several times that he is going to act decisively if they don't leave. Instead they remained adamant. When they continue to bark at his door and he refused to come out for another dialogue Biden begin to shout up-and-down that Putin is a killer. That he is complicating peace efforts.

Imagine! You barked at my door and you are still calling me a trouble maker complicating peace efforts.

Don't joke with Javelin.

But the US stocks of Javelins are running low except the EU pitches in with its own inventories.
And low for two reasons. The US has not fought an armored war for a very long time so production was halted a while back and with new anti-tank systems on the horizon Raytheon's production line is all but ended except by an Exec Order....so.


PS: On the last, since the US is not technically at war, there are hurdles to pass before old production lines can be restarted.
Even the Almighty United States faces the same problems Nigeria faces when trying to procure armament from itself (technically).
Most folks fail to realise that ALL US weapons are made by the private sector so to stock, Congress has To approve and this is no small task, especially when you are technically NOT AT WAR.

Is it in your world alone that right is synonymous with badly? Or why are you twisting the Pope’s words? Do you want the wrath of God to descend on you ni

He said that the real “scandal” of Putin’s war is “NATO barking at Russia’s door,” which he said caused the Kremlin to “react badly and unleash the conflict.”

Who else noticed that the only time the pope was alleged to be a conspiracy theorist was when he alluded to what every informed person knows about the deliberate poking of Russia by NATO, which led to this crisis? This is because there is a script, and anything outside of that script is regarded as conspiracy theories and censored from the news.

This is how people are brainwashed and programmed to think and react in a particular way using the media who work in sync with specially scripted narratives for people to soak up without an opportunity for an opinion of their own. Watch all the mainstream media and you would see the pattern for what it is.



For them in western media "international community" means Europe and America, Africa and Asia are not among.

you are talking rubbish oga!

The javelin was tasted during the invasion of Iraq and it was effective, since then to now America has been developing and upgrading the version to latest. undecided

What you see Ukraine is using is not the recent version of the javelin which can reach up to 4km.

[font=Times New Roman][color=red]

[b]Francis veered toward conspiracy theory as he blamed the international community for instigating the war.


“You cannot think that a free state can make war on another free state,” he said. “In Ukraine, it seems that it was others who created the conflict. I am pessimistic but we must do everything possible to stop the war.”

The pope then said that in a state visit to Rome by Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban, he was told “the Russians have a plan, that everything will end on May 9” without giving any further explanation. May 9 is the day Russia celebrates its liberation and the end of World War II.





At the highlighted, it would be wrong to say pope Francis stated that NATO started the war.

If my good dictionary serves me well, to instigate is to incite someone to do something, especially something bad.

I mean one can incite another but the person incited should have the reason to resist or not.
