america is colonizing the whole world as we speak. grin you dont even know what you are talking about.

There are roughly 750 US foreign military bases; they are spread across 80 nations! After the U.S is the UK, but they only have 145 bases. Russia has about 3 dozen bases, and China just five. This implies that the U.S has three times as many bases as all other countries combined. Quite astonishing if you ask us.

in a nutshell...


*Finland in 1941allied with NAZI Germany

Because between 1939-40, the Finns were attacked by Russia. It's called the Winter War, and the Finns won. They then allied with the Nazis.


*They allowed Germany to use their soil to attack RUSIA ( Leningrad) and northern Russia

Yes, and let's also remember what the Russians did to Poland and who they collaborated with on dividing Poland...yes...Nazi Germany.


*subjected more than a Million Russians to death by starvation

That's on the Nazis. They were in charge of the POW camps, and they messed up.

*They ( FINLAND) lost the war.

In 1944, they pulled out of their alliance with the Nazis, signed an armistice with the Soviets, and got peace in return for the Soviets taking a huge chunk of Finnish land. Bet you forgot that.



* Signed a treaty with Russia to be a Neutral state(forever) in exchange to exist as a nation

Not exactly. The armistice with russia was signed in 1944, long before NATO was thought of.


* Fast-forward to 2022 FINLAND wants to Join NATO!!!!!!

Because, quite simply, they do not want to be invaded by the Russians again. They don't want to be a colony of Russia again.

You guys should stop justifying illegal invasions. You are sounding like the neo-conservatives under Bush when they were illegally invading Afghanistan and Iraq for nothing.

Finland were not allies of Germany

Germany invaded Sweden Norway and Finland then used it as a base to attack Russia

Yes, because the alternative was a land invasion of Japan that would have led to a genocide of nearly 5-10 million Japanese people.

Chemical weapons (Agent Orange), and yes, Vietnam was illegal invasion...which is why you should not support Russia invading Ukraine. If they had not invaded Ukraine, Finland would still be neutral, as would Sweden.

Did you miss some pages in your history book? Russia also was aligned with Nazi Germany earlier on in the war.

Finland were not allies of Germany

Germany invaded Sweden Norway and Finland then used it as a base to attack Russia

Actually, the Finns were allied to Germany from 1941....after fighting a war against the Soviets from 1939-40, which ended in a truce. The Soviets were allied to Nazi Germany till 1941, when the Nazis invaded, and broke the treaty. The Finns then allied with the Nazis .

(Fun fact; one of the active recordings of Hitler's actual conversational voice was made by the Finns, when Adolf visited Mannerheim, Finland's chief soldier and later leader during the war).


Germany also never invaded Sweden. (Sweden stayed neutral throughout the war, although they were obliged to supply the Nazis with a lot of raw materials, since the war cut them off from many of theuir usual markets.)

In 1944, Mannerheim, the Finnish leader, seeing where the war was going, pulled Finland out of its alliance with the Nazis, and signed an armistice with the Soviets, and then joined the Allies.

The 1963 Cuban missile crisis

In brief, Khruschev wanted to send Kennedy a message...to back off from trying to remove his ally Castro...by planting missiles in Cuba.

This had the effect of scaring the Americans enough (the US has never had missiles pointing at it that close due to having no land borders with the soviets; meanwhile soviets had missles pointing at them in places like turkey.)

At the end, the US removed its missiles in Turkey and the Soviets removed their missiles in Cuba.


P.S - And no, it does not make Russia right to invade Ukraine, despite its concerns about security..same as the US was not right to invade Afghnaistan and Iraq because 'security' (I know what you are up to)

What Russian is doing in Ukraine will be child's play compared to what it will do to Finland if it constitute itself as an existential treat to Moscow, because you can't have NATO army so close to Russia and Russia will do everything in it power to protect itself. Russia may declare a total war on Finland.
Too late.

US and UK have already issued security guarantee to Finland and it's now untouchable to Russia.

Yes I just checked Finland allied with Germany then pulled out


But if you want to base things on agreement in the Budapest agreement Ukraine gave up it nuclear weapons which was the 3rd largest in the world on the condition that Russia US and UK guaranteed.its security

Russia has broken that agreement with this invasion of Ukraine

Finland’s military has the Nazi symbol on their flag. Most Nigerians don’t know the Nazis hate blacks with demonic hatred, that’s why they are supporting Ukraine and demonizing Russia.

Oh, you mean the Swastika , that was the emblem of the Finnish AIR FORCE(discontinued since)...and is still used by their army on their flag

1.The Swastika emblem was adopted by the Finns in 1918. The DAP, which would later become the NSDP by 1920, and the NSDAP by 1926,(aka the Nazis) did not use the Swastika, or adopt it till 1920/1

2.Up till the 1920's, the swastika was seen as a good luck charm. Most aviators wore swastika medalions for good luck among other things.

3.There is even a town in Canada called Swastika. And they adpted the name in 1908 (as any indigene of the place will tell you in anger)

4.Swastikas are used even today on Japanese maps to indicate Buddhist temples. It is also a sacred symbol in Jainism (a minor religion in India...and yes they had it LONG before Adolf's great ancestor was born!)

Yes, I did, because it was war, and because of that.....war must be prevented at all costs so that we do not end up having to make such evil and terrible decisions.

Like Russia now codedly saying they would nuke some parts of Europe.

War that could have been avoided if Ukraine and Russia allowed cooler heads to prevail.

At the end, the war really is just the fight between 2 factions in Ukraine...the pro Russians and pro Western factions. The Pro-Russians have just called their sugar daddy to respond.

Personally, while I find the invasion wrong...I also appreciate that Russia does have a point. That's why for me, I'm on the fence really.

When it comes to War Crimes even though I don't like the way US invaded some countries US is very Humane

Iraq , Afghanistan and Serbia have woeful human rights records that cannot be denied

Vietnam and Libya US ought to have used diplomacy with

In Kosovo US was defending the Muslims there that had been there for over 500 years and the Serbs were unjustly trying to evict because it was their ancient homeland
STILL no country on planet earth can march America's atrocities in the history of war crimes not even nazi Germany. infact america is the reason ukraine is being invaded.

The Russian statement (in Russian) described Finland's move as "a radical change in the country's foreign policy".

"Finland's accession to Nato will cause serious damage to bilateral Russian-Finnish relations and the maintaining of stability and security in the Northern European region," it said.

"Russia will be forced to take retaliatory steps, both of a military-technical and other nature, in order to neutralise the threats to its national security that arise from this."


This is exactly what will lead to WWIII.

May even lead to Putin’s removal and defeat of Russia due to fighting on many fronts.

2022 might just be the year of global war
