We have lost count of how many independent nations the US has invaded and destroyed since the end of WW2. Currently, they're in Syria stealing the Syrians oil. Who invited them? cry

I thought ya'all said Russia is the problem. Is Russia also the problem here? Is Russia the cause of:

China vs Taiwan
Russia vs Ukraine
Palestanian - Isreal
Iran - Isreal
India - Pakistan
Afghanistan crisis
Libya civil war
Syria war
Iran internal tension and Chaos
Myanmar's, Venezuela , turkey unrest


All these unrest, there is one country involve in all these. And we all know the country except we want to be hypocritical. You will always find them in everything chaos. There is only one country causing, instigating, fanning chaos in all these places. Turning neighbours against each other. Just look at T!awan 'saying their democracy and freedom is under threat'. Same thing Ukraine is saying, same thing !sreal is saying, same thing the citizens of iran being used as anti-government mob to burn down their country, are echoeing saying.
Same thing women in Afghanistan, soiling the name of their country in mud all in the name of freedom; are wailing about.

All of them saying same thing like Robot, same excuses they were programmed with, same cheap propaganda they are selling to all of them, so as to turn them against their neighbouring country and start war. Or cause unrest in their own country and bring it down by themselves.

And we all know that country. The country that joined forces with other countries to invade our own Africa country; Libya. Massacre its people , kill the leader Gadaffi, close the airspace, bomb down the country into rubbles. All in the name of looking for weapon of mass destruction. So many years after, they still havent showed us the weapon of mass destruction they recovered nor tell us the the motive for the invasion. The Libya they told us they were trying to liberate back then, is in ruin presently. A black market for weapons, body part, where Africans sell Africans to Foreigners.; the most disastrous thing that can ever happen to any continent !


Peacemaker indeed.
That country is none other than the United States of Abomination, Abomicity, and Abomilocal government . Everything the US touches manifest in chaos, anarchy, destruction and death. No wonder it was voted sometime ago as the greatest threat to world Peace.

Foreign Affairs › Re: Finland Is Set To Join NATO On Tuesday, A Blow To Russia by Appleyard(m): 10:45pm On Apr 04, 2023
Babapyro:
How foolish are some of you exactly, Ukraine is literarily the closest link Russia has to it's past,they couldn't care less about Finland, how does this news affect Russia by any way. Finland just committed suicide because in case of a NATO Russia was they'll be nuked first, they already have 13 ICBM pointed at them as of today, what is there to celebrate in your impending doom
You don't have to be surprised. Western politicians with few exceptions act based on emotions. Just imagine that at a time when many nations are now turning away from the Western-led bloc of imperialism and warmongering, diabolic gun-boat diplomacy, midgets like Finland ruled by equally emotional politicians devoid of pragmatic and logical reasoning are pitching tents with NATO, a bloc that most ordinary people in the Western hemisphere are increasingly seeing and protesting against as the greatest threat to the European and the global peace order.

Just recently, more than half of the lawmakers in the Austrian parliament walked out of a televised speech being made to the House by Zelensky of Ukraine. Other countries like Croatia, Hungary, Chech Republic, and Bulgaria are increasingly getting fed up and switching to neutral status in the face of the ongoing crisis in Ukraine because they understand that, once the real first shot gets fired between NATO and Russia, nothing would defend or save them from Russian nukes, tactical or otherwise. It is when war breaks out that the majority of these so-called NATO member states will realize that they don't have a population that is ready to fight for them. This is the reason they don't want people to see the massive anti-NATO protests that keep reoccurring in many cities across Europe--Prague, Madrid, Paris, London, Italy, Muniche, and more, that the Western mainstream media are refusing to televise. It is only here on Nairaland you see people celebrating Finland joining NATO because so many of them are just emotional while some are honestly ignorant of the facts on the ground.

Whatever, the world will keep on going but the doomsday clock is ticking closer to midnight. We can only hope for the best. cool

⚡️🇷🇺 Dmitry Medvedev, about the 🇩🇪 German Justice Minister's intention to arrest Putin:

"Suddenly, they made a decision about our head of state (issued arrest warrant). And then some idiots, some halfwits like the German Minister of Justice, say, "Well, if he comes, we'll arrest him." He's a lawyer, isn't he? Does he understand what this means?

Let's imagine of course, this is a situation that will never materialize, yes, but nevertheless, let's imagine that it has materialized. The current head of a nuclear-weapon state came to Germany, for example, and was arrested.

What is this? a declaration of war on the Russian Federation! And already in this case, all our resources (all our missiles) will fly to the Bundestag, to the chancellor's office, and so on. Does he realize that this is a casus belli, a declaration of war? Or did he not study well?"

No, it's not my money. I'm only concerned as every rational thinking human should be. We in the shithole nations ain't as Godless and heartless like the most of you in the United States of Abomination. cool Plus you know, I have a soft spot for you as a friend. cool By the way, if Africa is really the shithole you deemed it to be, why is the US government afraid of and desperate to curtail the rising influence of China and Russia across the continent? You didn't read the recent news of how the US was pathetically scrambling to reassert itself in Africa, did you? I guess not. Without Africa, most countries in the west like France and the US would be empty barrels. cool So shove that nonsense shithole claim down your asss. cool



If Russia has already won, why are they still sending prisoner units to the front. Modern warfare is all about economic output and Russia is no match for the west. Never have, never will be. Millions have already left and the rest are drinking themselves to death or dying on the battlefield. NATO is not even in the fight yet.
Russia has won already because the core objectives of the SMO has been achieved. War is about achieving objectives not the battles you fought, won or lost. Ukraine has been denazified in most parts of the east, much of the Russian-speaking and ethnic territories in the Dombass freed from their Nazi tormentors and made to become part of the motherland's protective wings, and Ukraine's ability to wage war and manufacture weapons of war has effective been decimated by the Bear's right hand of power. What we have fighting in Ukraine now are largely hired and regular NATO forces masquerading as mercenaries from Poland and America...(Ukrainians don't speak fluent English). grin Sadly for them, the Russians are playing along while extaminating them on the frontlines. cool

Sorry, you are seriously deluded if you think NATO isn't directly involved in this conflict. cool

Economic warfare? Aren't you ashamed to be saying this? cool

The US and its lapdogs in Europe slapped more than 10,000 sanctions on Russia. But, instead of Russia collapsing, the Rouble stabilize and even rose against the odds, inflation trickled down in Russia, the country even recorded a trade surplus and the World Bank forecasted the economy to grow in 2023. cool But the same cannot be said of the west, banks are closing down like mad, grin companies are going insolvent, eggs, baby foods, tomatoes, and other essential items are fast disappearing from shelves across the west, not to mention the rising cost of energy bills and homelessness. grin

The west has already lost this war with Russia. cool

I came to the conclusion a long time ago that debating online is a pointless exercise. If bringing down a drone makes Russia and its trolls happy, so be it as long as more Russians are getting killed on the battlefield that is fine by me.

The goal is the prevent Russia's victory and deplete her fighting capability for years to come. That is working great so far with zero American casualties.
We are getting a great return on investment using Ukraine to fight our war on the European continent while we prepare for the mother of all battles with China in the coming years. Biden foreign policy scorecard is perfect IMO.

We will keep Trump and his redneck hordes away from the white house next year. Operation destroy Russia must be completed. Then it will be China's turn to collect.

America's hegemony will not be challenged.
Debating with people online is actually a healthy and recommended way of learning new information and socialising in the modern times we live in. So, if you're giving up now, it means the American delusion and seclusion lifestyle away from the rest of the world has gotten to you. You need to see a therapist ASAP. cool

The drone deserves the threatement given to it because it's operators violated an Off Limit airspace that they conveniently called international waters. Heck, you're sounding emotional unlike your formal self. Have you so grown fund of Bidenopulos? cool You didn't say this when the Almighty US army used a $2 million worth missile to shoot down a $200 worth of Chinese spy/weather balloon last month. Conversely, the damn Russkies only spray some liters of kerosene to bring down one of the most sophisticated US spy asset worth $32 million. Ivan must be terrible. grin

I'm sorry sorry to disappoint you, Russia had already won in Ukraine, and the west knows it. But, sadly, out of shame, they don't want to admit it hence the fight keeps going. And guess what: the lost ratio is 10:1. Very sad my lady. cool

Contrary to what you believe, Russia is the one in essence depleting NATO stockpiles and capability. Heck, even some NATO members like Croatia and Estonia have blatantly stated and admitted that Russia has the capability to not only sustain but wage this current war in its current form for the next three years non-stop. cool It wasn't me that said that, they said it themselves. So, quit the delusion. The US corrupt elites are just using Ukraine as a means to launder and syphoned money while enriching the MIC.

Heck, you couldn't stop the Talibans after 20 years of wasted efforts, and you think you can beat China in its backyard? cool I pray that the misleading spirit of Bidenopulos continue to lead America on to its self-inflicted geopolitical Golgotha while the rest of us in third-world nations won't mind feasting on some of its overvalued Fiat dollar till it's final demise. cool

Till then, good luck and adieu my friend. cool cool
