On the one hand, Finalnd should not do this really. Russia just does not want to be surrounded by enemies...which is why it is acting the way it acts. If you guys read Russian history, Russia has been invaded too many times because it has a very long land border, and enemies can easily penetrate without bothering about a response. That's why it does not want Ukraine to join NATO...plus Ukraine even sits on a very weak point in Russia's defences.

On the other hand, Finland does not trust Moscow. At the end, they were 1) colonised by Russia, 2) fought russia in recent memory 3) If Russia decided that it was in its interest to bomb Finland, they would....and no one would bat an eyelid. Looking at Ukraine, in times like this, one has to sign up to be America's lapdog so that Russia won't bother you much.

(Sometimes global affairs resembles Mafia affairs. Countries comming under the protection of the local Mafia warlord to protect them from another Mafia warlord. Maybe La Cosa Nostra was unto something).

That's why anyone backing a side is backing one warlord against another. Make we Nigerians just siddon look. Anyone backing NATO, USA or Rossiya should stop. If it is in their interest to bomb us to the pre-cambrian era....they will do it, and the world will look on. There are no good guys here. Just humans engaging in a (you know what) measuring contest. Like the Babylonians, Persians and Egyptians once did...


P.S

Funny now that I have been attacked by both American and Russian fanboys. Well, as far as I know, this war has no side. At the end, humans should calm down and think sanely.
Bro, you are excellently on point on this issue.I know this, that's why I don't condemn Russia for invading Ukraine.
She's only trying to protect her interests and guarantee of safety.

At the same time, you should not back Russia's invasion of Ukraine either...because at the end, Ukraine has a right not to be Russia's b*tch.

Also, like you, I have read Russian history, and it is understandable they don't want to be ringed by NATO nations on their western flank.

At the end, it is a (you know what) measuring contest, and no one looks good...NATO/USA or Rossiya.

Wrong interpretation of that passage. Taking that passage out of its original context ehn! The book of Revelation was written to Christians who lived during the close of the first century who were being persecuted for the cause of Jesus Christ.

The dragon represent Satan, and the beast is a symbol of the might of Rome. During that era the Caesars, whose seat of power and authority was domiciled in Rome. He command authority.

He, Caeser—Roman Emperor (the beast) was a direct agent of the dragon (Satan). The dragon used him to persecute Christians of that time. The emperor of Rome was seen and taken as deity. And paid divine honour.

John saw in this fearsome beast from the sea none other than the arrogant might of imperial Rome, which, because of its persecutions of God’s people, was aiding and abetting the dragon in his losing war against the saints of God.

So stop reading your own thought into the Bible text.

So has Jesus done His 1000 year millennia reign...

Mu.mu, why your darling American didn't attack them when they were bombing Ukraine?

Why would US attack them? They are not US ally! They are not member of nato! I am not downplaying the power of russia but you are over hyping it. If russia attack Finland, nato will come out, i dont think china will support them as they did in the case of ukraine even china claimed that they are neutral.

I thought aomw people said Putin has balls. Ukraine is not a NATO territory, now finland is a NATO territory, let him come out and misbehave . Some people will just be day dreaming as if it's only Putin that has the red button. Others too have more dangerous ones they won't disclose. He will end up his life in a bunker like Adolf.

Don't mind him. China too will go for it. So they think America is a dumb as not inventing weapons that will marvel and shake Russia? Mumu dey worry them.

America cannot attack Russia in Ukrainian case but let him send one of his useless weapons to Finland , then he will realize that other countries nuclear arsenals too is not as obsolete as he thinks. Only small bomb broke on of his ships in the snake island. Awon dindinrin Omo putin

Re: NATO: The Moment Finland's Flag Was Raised In Brussels by Elsueno: 7:48pm On Apr 04, 2023
LMAO....d Europeans are some of the dumbest pawns i have ever seen in my life.....This move by Finland only benefits one country! The United States of America, there is absolutely no benefit to Finland whatsoever no matter how they want to spin it....

Finland is already having all the benefits of NATO membership while not being in NATO & still enjoying supposed 'neutrality' from Russia...Now, in case of conflict with NATO, They would be one of first countries to be decimated by Russia...To me, this is a very stup#d move😁

LordReed:


That is if Russian nukes are even still in operational condition. They might have been grounded due to corruption but even if they weren't Russia is not ready to make that commit, all that nuclear threat is braggadocio.

Baba forget that crap, if Russia is really as weak as the propaganda that is being spread...The USA would have already flattened them & feed on their resources like they did Iraq & Libya..NATO is specifically designed to keep Russia in check, dat tells how effective they are military wise..

Same way you fall in line with the dumb majority on this forum cos you don’t seem to understand what America did to Cuba during the Cold War for aligning with USSR… since you are talking about sovereignty, you need to read your history books and UNDERSTAND what geopolitical doctrine is all about. Let a country like Mexico declare that it wants to join an alliance with America’s enemies and you will understand that sovereignty will be thrown in the trash bin.




The United States is providing nearly $200 million in additional humanitarian assistance through international organizations and NGO partners in Mexico and Central America, bringing our total humanitarian assistance for the region since FY 2018 to more than $594 million

Since 1940s, I never see country wey invade a sovereign country to annex it's Territory..
Na due to this Russia bullying tendencies make all these miniaturized countries dey join NATO.
And Russia has proven them right by invading Ukraine to annex her Territory.

And one thing is certain, on no account would NATO attack Russia first.
So those countries are joining to protect themselves.
But the Truth is that, USA won't take this thing they are doing to Russia.
Taking that Cuban missile crises into account.
USA are hypocrites anyways.

It is purely ideological war. Capitalism versus socialism. America represents capitalism while Russia represents socialism. All countries that align with democracy and freedom will line up behind capitalism, while those that align with totalitarian rule will line behind Russia. Of course many prefer freedom to suppression which is why America has more allies.
