War: Why Russia Didn’t Crush Whole Of Ukraine Overnight – Fani-kayode by Mj4199: 7:11pm On Apr 01
A former Nigeria’s Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode has suggested reasons why Russia is fighting Ukraine.
He said Ukraine would have been utterly destroyed if not that Russia had been mild, limited and restrained in its attack, unlike how Israel took the war to Gaza.

He also believes that NATO provoked the war in Ukraine, that Africa and Nigeria are experiencing the second slavery in the hands of Western powers

"Russians were provoked into doing what they’re doing in Ukraine. Russia is doing it in a mild way.

“They would have crushed the whole of Ukraine overnight but they try to be limited and restrained,” he said in an interview with Arise TV on Sunday.

“It would have been a hundred times worse if they were doing a Gaza on them. It would have been much worse but thank God they’re not doing that.”
On the 24 February 2022, Russia invaded Ukraine in an escalation of the Russo-Ukrainian War that started in 2014.

The invasion became the largest attack on a European country since World War II. It is estimated to have caused tens of thousands of Ukrainian civilian casualties and hundreds of thousands of military casualties.

Russia didn't even have the intentions of invading Ukraine.

Ukraine started military training ( Trained by Us) around their borders which the West Media refused to cover, it was after then Russia sent their troops to Ukraine border cos they weren't sure what they were up to.

The Agreement after world war 2 was simple, Russia to withdraw their troops from Europe in agreement of NATO shouldn't step a foot in any of the East Europe countries. How many East Europe countries are currently under NATO?

Russia doesn't have the backing of the USA...

Isreal does.


So they have to be careful and cautious because of negative propaganda!

Russia could actually have crushed Ukraine overnight. But Putin has other plans about initio.
And come to think of it, if he had destroyed Ukraine overnight the whole world would have been against him. But now by showing restraint, he has not only improved Russia's economy but has also managed to draw out the true instigators of the war - the US and NATO, and gained more support from the intellectual international community.

Or you can not stitch or link the other part to comprehend what I said?

Why would you take only a sentence or paragraph from a full statement and try to give it a new meaning?

I never insinuated Russia needs US backing. I only said they do not have it!

Russia doesn't have the backing of the USA

This thread was about Why Russia didn't do full invasion and you responded with because Russia didn't have the USA backing, had they have it, they would have invaded Ukraine fully.

Israel who had the USA backing invaded Palestine fully.

So what was your epistle above about?

Bro why na...

Stop doing that. This is not about full invasion or not.

This is about the comparison between the devastating crushing levels of the war between the two.

Pls try to comprehend... Even the small 2 or 3 lines I wrote you still took it out of context!

The motives are different

Russia is trying to annex Ukraine because it sees Ukrainians as it's own people albeit confused

Israel is trying to get rid of palestinians because it doesn't see them as it's people

Dumb hybridised idiots would and already insulting FFK, but he spoke the crystal clear undiluted truth.
If not for Russia and China, the West would have rubbished developing nations especially Africa, reducing them to economic slaves.We can see this in their neocolonial tendencies in relationships with Africa, and it's pronounced with Weak Francophone African countries.
Russia could have swiftly crushed Ukraine in their ongoing war, being the country with the world's biggest number of nuclear warheads.
But she chose not to go nuclear because she's fighting for the cause of ethnic Russians indigenous to Ukraine,who have long been marginalized.
It was that which fanned the flames of separatist movements in Russian speaking parts of Ukraine, leading to the occupation and annexation of Crimea in 2014.

Many supporters of Ukraine are actually ignorant of the history of this war, all they follow us the western media.
Let Russia set up a military base in Mexico and they will see what the US will do.
From 18 NATO member nations to 30, breaking the agreement year in year out.
Russia is our last defence against western oppression.

I agree on Ukraine 💯 but disagree on Israel vs Palestine. The question is what will you have Israel do? Watch Hamas regroup?
I watched a debate from the UK parliament tonight, where even those antagonizing Israel agree that there can't be a future of Palestine with Hamas in it! So how do you implement that?
Everyday we see proof of Hamas utilizing vast resources in using civilians as human shield....instead of physically confronting Israel. Yet israel'ld quit and wait for the next attack?

Bro the scenario is the same.

Who funded Hamas with million of dollars in Aids?

Where did Israel get chunck of their ammunitions from?

USA had prior intelligent about Hamas planned attack on Israel but look side. Their diplomats have been evacuated before Hamas terrorists even enter Isreal.

If the world leaders truly mean what they have been preaching about peace, then they should
stop manufacturing more weapons of destruction. They won't be needed if there was peace
