ignis:God is not involved at all. |
ecolime:NATO will finish Russia in a week? NATO whose members ran out of bombs in Libya and couldn't destroy the larger proportion of Serbian forces back in 99 after a month of bombardment will overrun Russia in a week. ![]() How is Russia and it's military overrated? Just admit you don't know anything about war objectives and strategy. |
FERNANDEZISBACK:Media lies are worst than the propaganda both sides ditch out because not only are they hell bent on increasing traffic but also served as a mind controlling tool. In any war, it's the media that wins before any side can claim victory. |
You will never see this news on the headlines of BBC, CNN, SKY News and Fox News. |
These European leaders are clowns. |
seunny4lif:The Russian Central Bank has now fully back up the Ruble with Hold. 5000 Rubles for 1 gram of Gold. Game changer. |
PoliteActivist:Lmao!!! The so-called Arab spring is a grand work of CIA sponsored color coded revolution!!! Guy, you're still learning how the US work. If you follow US pattern of regime change, you will decode the CIA's handiwork in the "pro democracy uprising" that started from Tunisia and down to several other Arab nations. In fact, let me not bother you with that. ![]() Libyan war has everything to do with Qaddafi's attempt to phase out foreign currency from Africa trade. So you did not know that they so-called rebels set up their own central banking system few weeks into the crisis? How does a rag-tag group of rebels come up with their own money control and central banking system overnight? Of course, except if they were being funded and guided by a sophisticated foreign power. Which group of rebels anywhere in the world have you seen setting up central banking systems few weeks into a crisis with the government? Use your brain, except these things are too deep for you to understand. |
ayindejimmy:I said TV news companies like BBC, CNN, Sky News, Fox News etc. |
Athemisia:Here we go with sleepy Joe ![]() https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u69Fx5mJoKE |
FoolishBoy419:Japan's case was very funny. The way they reacted got me laughing. |
seunny4lif:Hungary have said the same thing also. India have concluded plans with Russia to pay with Rubles while Russia will pay them in Rupees for medical supplies. The scheme is schedule for next week or so. I will not be surprise if Biden sleep e no wake up. Those capitalist bastards go press am die. ![]() Meanwhile, Donald Trump keep singing... ![]() https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u69Fx5mJoKE |
PoliteActivist:You are still learning how the world works. Ask yourself: why do the US have it's military stationed on the ass of almost all oil producing nations? They killed Qaddafi and Saddam simply because they wanted to weaned themselves off the Dollar in trading oil. How else do you think made it possible for the USD to become world reserve currency? The Brenton Woods arrangement is what made it possible today, and the influence of that arrangement spilled over to other sectors including the international purchase of basic commodities, the majority of which are priced and sold in Dollars. India enemy of US? What are you yapping? China was nowhere near where it is today economically during the cold war. And Russia isn't the same as the USSR then. So your premise made no logical sense. Besides, the US hasn't really weaponized the dollar against a major player like Russia all these years. Third-world nations have always been the victims of it's manipulations and because they lack the means to fight back, it's difficult to challenge the US imposed order or seek other alternatives. But now that it has done it to one of the powerhouses of the world (Russia) some nations are now embodied to setup alternatives because the nation involved (Russia) has asked for it, and set a precedent and she is more than capable to ensure its success and there is nothing the US can do about it unless they want to risk World War 3. This I believe is what is frustrating the Biden administration so much that he opened up his mouth and indirectly called for a regime change in Russia, which happens to be one of his greatest and reckless gaffes of all times. It's sure going to be a political talking point in the upcoming midterm elections. Biden don carry America enter one chance. ![]() |
It's funny but equally grave how Biden has unwillingly become an existential threat to US national security. Many times he opens his mouth to speak on foreign policy issues, he just ends up giving out state secrets. No wonder some elements in the Pentagon hate him and the state department. I genuinely felt sorry for him when he was ranting nonstop in Poland. But It's even funnier seeing Blinken Blinking going about trying to repair the damage Biden has caused. I almost laughed when watching Blinken trying to explain to Israel's Prime Minister how Biden didn't mean a regime change in Russia; the way Jewish leader was just standing dare staring at him like "What da fuvk is wrong with you guys?" Blinken was stammering and struggling to string together coherent words. It was so funny. ![]() On a serious note, that man ought to be in an elderly facility now. Is glaring he is too old for the job now.. |
TWoods:The message have been sent via Ukraine: the Russians will no longer tolerate NATO expansion to it's doorsteps, take it or leave it. They tried the Russian resolve by crossing a redline--Ukraine. And Russia has made good it's intent to stop the criminal "Now America Take Over" (sorry, NATO) gangsterism from further incursion next to it's territory. Period. Finland can go and join for all I care, but one thing is now certain; the days of Russia talking and voicing it's security concerns are over. They will just act and nothing will happen. How would you know is a strategic mistake when all you do is focus on MSM nonesense reportage. Biden allowed himself to be goaded into banning Russian oil import. Today, he is still looking for replacement for that oil. Nobody wants to help him. Even his longtime standing allies in the Middle East are refusing to pick his calls. Meanwhile, it has forced prices of commodities to go up in the US and elswhere. And because Russia is a major producer and supplier of key energy and natural resources, including agricultural products and high-tech, weaponizing the dollar means other countries including some in Europe would have to come up with alternative ways to pay for these goods which are essential to their economy and security. For instance, India who has since the sanctions began bought 6 million barrels of oil has concluded plans to pay for their trade with Indian Rupees to Russian Rubles, a system that will commence next week. Other nations aside the EU (and even in the EU) will follow suit in a moment because they can't sit and watch their country suffer. Saudi Arabia is already in talk with China to pay oil and goods in Yuan. If this isn't a strategic mistake vis the petrol dollar and the crisis in Ukraine, then I wonder what is. By removing some Russian banks from the SWIFT system and weaponizing the dollar against Russia, he has inadvatently set in motion the death of the petrol dollar. which is the most viable commodity exported by the US. This is the reason members of the Federal Reserve were angry that they weren't consulted before such actions were taken. Obama was right: "Never underestimate Joe's ability to fuvk things up". ![]() This is quite stupid. In fact, countries still buying Russian oil have clearly refused to paying rubbles. Everyone else is still buying oil in dollars and EU members are now working to buy US gas rather than remain reliant on Russian gas. Here - https://www.politico.eu/article/poland-russia-energy-gas-pipeline/India have already reached agreement with Russia to settle oil and defence deals on the Rubles. How about that?. Hungary have said it would do anything necessarily to ensure that their people are not denied the economic prosperity and peace they enjoy, which means they will certainly pay for their gas in Rubles--a truly independent country The UK is already singing a different tune since the Russian announcement, hinting that the sanctions could possibly be lifted if Russia stops the war in Ukraine, a far cry from their earlier stance that the sanctions would stay all through the year and beyond. The reality of gas shortage is already hitting in amidst the spike in prices. ![]() As for Poland, they can boast all they want. It is simple. Once the next delivery time arrives, they will either pay via Rubles (since Russia can't access dollars anymore) or have no gas delivered. They can go and buy elsewhere at four times the price, no one is stopping them. ![]() Putin, for all his "thinking two steps ahead of Biden" is struggling to defeat a nation with barely an army. That's a monumental disgrace. Saying Russia has one of the best spy agencies in the world is meaningless. The US had clear maps of every Russian military movement months in advance. The US was one of the few countries that correctly predicted the Russian invasion. Here - https://www.nytimes.com/2022/01/19/us/politics/biden-putin-russia-ukraine.htmlThis is just shows you have your head buried deep in western media propaganda. According to the global index firepower, Ukraine ranks 22 out of 141 countries. Ukraine has the third largest army in Europe, and is fairly modernized having been trained and equipped by the west since 2014. Yet, with just 150,000 troops, some of which are still relaxing in Belarus, Russia have sliced up the country into bits and have it's major cities besieged with most of the Uki forces in the east almost completely defeated. It controls the entire seacoast of Ukraine, which no longer have a navy. It has superior air control, destroyed Ukrainian defenses and can launch standoff missiles deep into any part of Ukraine at will. Even some truth-speaking US military experts (not the ediots that work to satisfy the narrative of their paid Lamestream media brainwashing machines) have confessed that this Russian fighting style is a problem for US military planners. ![]() Read and learn: https://consortiumnews.com/2022/03/23/pentagon-drops-truth-bombs-to-stave-off-war-with-russia/ Facts don't lie. ![]() I don't think you have a clue what the word "neocons" means. It likely is a word you've heard used in US media and you're simply regurgitating it without a thought. For the first time in over 20 years, the US is not at war anywhere in the world... so just who are the "neocons" who have hijacked the Biden foreign policy? There "appears to be a rift between the state department and the pentagon"? Any proof for this meritless and utterly delusional statement?I don't even know what to say to you. When did the US ran out of Afghanistan, 20 years ago or just recently? What are US soldiers still doing in Syria? Guiding tomatoes or technically still at war with the Syrian government forces, actively stealing their oil. Lmao. It's the neocons that have goaded Biden into making this strategic mistake it has made with the Ukraine crisis. This has caused an ongoing disagreement between the State Department and the Pentagon. Get off your MSM lying machines. Get real facts elsewhere. You're being lied to. No, it's when ediots like your slave masters who caused this problem for Ukraine ventured into this war that Russia would strike with it's Hypersonic nuclear glide vehicles at such that they won't even have time to say their prayers before they get incinerated. Don't bother replying me. I don't deal with people with slave mentality. |
TWoods:First Amendment. Lmao. Stop messaging your oversize ego. Go and read about big tech censorship in America. It makes China looks like child's play. |
Lovelies1:So what's you interpretation and conclusion on the quoted chapter? ![]() |
shogsman:I just pity people that say US is a land of freedom of speech. On the contrary, the United States is the modern day Orwellian state of censorship. Once you don't agree with a narrative, they ban you. Period. |
Dreal1247:Amen. |
NOETHNICITY:Don't throw up my brother. I must confess I admire your courage to admit you were once misled to believe the wrong. Such is life, we learn everyday especially if we chose to learn. For this sinful act of wickedness, if Russia doesn't capture Zelensky like a fowl for daring to harbor enemy bioweapon against Russia, I would be very disappointed with Putin. That man needs to be taught a severe lesson. |
sehin79:The de-dollarisation process has begun. Biden, what have you done? ![]() |
bonechamberlain:I cite you my brother. Long time no see. ![]() That Biden rant in Poland got to me. The man was practically crying because they knew that there is nothing they can do to Russia anymore. ![]() When he said Russia has made "a strategic mistake", truth is it was the Biden's maladministration that comitted a strategic mistake with the way they responded to Russia. He is not only giving out state secrets anytime he opens his mouth to speak, his administration has effectively set in motion the collapse of the petrol dollar and the dawn of a new era, one with limited American influence on the global scale. The frustration is so glaring that he cried and may have just revealed another secret about possible US plot to topple Putin. Unfortunately for the old man, he is dealing with a country that has one of the best spy agencies in the world, and led by one of the most experience spies ever to grace the espionage world. So Putin is two steps ahead of him. In a way, I feel sorry for him because it's glaring that he is not in control of his foreign policy. The neocons have hijacked it and there appear to be a rift between the state department, the Pentagon and Biden himself according to insiders. Whatever, we are in for a long ride, one which we hope doesn't lead to thermonuclear warfare. ![]() |
Awesometouch1:Lmao. Another zombified western bot sighted. Sorry, did you receive any evidence of Russia planning to use chemical or biological weapons in a war where they got the enemy besieged? Free yourself from MSM brainwashing reporting. You're being influenced by one of the greatest Psy-ops ever. Same way they decieved simpletons like you that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction. Tell me about Russian barbarism and I will tell you about American barbarism. Yes, the Russians cares about Ukraine, even Formal US military top brass and current Pentagon officials have confessed that the Russians were being lenient and mindful of Ukraine's civilian population. Majority of the civilian infrastructures targeted directly were being used by Ukrainian army to launch attack against Russian troops. They were using civilians as human shields. But since you have your head buried deep in MSM propanganda, you couldn't dig around to find the truth. Of course, the Russian army has been decimated in Ukraine, yet your lovely comedian president is asking for a no fly zone, NATO involvement and all that. You and Zelensky must be the definition of irony. ![]() I redeem your mind and brain from western MSM zombification now and forever. Amen. ![]() |
ariesbull:I agree with you. WION is on top of it, at least, providing balance reporting. That is why YouTube banned them recently. So much for freedom of speech and DeMoncrazy in the west. |
WHITELIGHTER:You didn't read about US officials destroying evidence days before the Russian invasion began? You think Uncle Sam would leave glaring evidence behind for anyone to pickup in the labs? Besides, who in the west cares to listen to what Russia have to say or produced? Nonetheless, Russia have stated they have some evidence. So let's wait and see how this goes. |
almarthins:You're a very stupid person. Tell me, how would US feel if Russia sets up a bioweapon lab in Mexico? What is even wrong with your lot? Is it that you can't think for yourself anymore or you just chose to be a blind jingoist? Is Ukraine America? What stops the US for setting up such labs in its own soil if it is for good intent? Why set it up so close to the borders of it's geopolitical achrival if it doesn't have ulterior motives? Why was US embassy in Kiev destroying evidence days before the Russian invasion of Ukraine began? What were they hiding or trying to hide? If you don't have logical answers to these questions, just get off my mention. It's folks like you that are wired to die with their eyes wide open. ![]() |
bezimo:It's so shameful that you can't trust the MSM anymore. Very pathetic the way they have sold out to neocons and greedy capitalists bastards. |
Pierocash: They have exhausted their leverages and now stylishly looking for how to get back on track since the sanctions is hitting them way too much than it's affecting Russia at the moment. ![]() Sanctions are like a kid's scratched fingermarks on the back if the country involved is one that is energy independent, agriculturally self-reliant, produces a good proportion of its own medicines and Health needs, and has advanced technology. Once you have these things, make the whole of Europe and America sanction you, it would just be like a scratch because you have the basic things that survives a country. America sanctioned Russian oil import, Biden is still looking for replacement and whom to cushion the rising cost of oil in his country while Russians are enjoying even lesser prices and India quickly stepped in to buy 6 million barrels in two purchases. Who lose? ![]() The EU have not even seen anything yet. Ordinary small rise in gas prices and protest are already hitting many European cities. To cushion the effect, some EU states governments are now paying people extra for the increase in gas prices. But how long can they sustain it given that it is also affecting other commodities now. Wait until their payment to Gazprom will be due, and they refused to pay in the Rubles as demanded by Putin. If Russia turns off the tap, na then you go see real riots and smashing of buildings in Europe. It would be worst than what happened in Khazastan early this year. They are sensing it already hence the tacit shift in policy. |
No western TV news will carry this, even when Victoria Nulland has confessed to Senator Mako Rubio that the US has a biolab in Ukraine. Those who have been zombified to believe otherwise should be ashamed of themselves now. |
gambojimeta:American gas to Europe is not feasible for European economy. The cost is too much and you know what that means to Commodities prices across Europe. You no go for withstand the protest. |
The despiration of the west and it's brainwashing and control machine is becoming apparent by the day as they fear losing the.narrative over Ukraine, especially now that Russia has changed tact and the reality of their lies about Ukraine is setting in. Meanwhile Poland is planning some form of peacekeeping intervention towards the west of Ukraine, and the Russians have said that if it move a bit even by 10 meters into Ukraine, it would destroy the Polish forces with unprecedented force. At the same time, Belarusian forces are poised to enter the fray, targeting the same western area of Ukraine that Poland is eyeing. Interesting times ahead. ![]() |
