I'm missing them already. Loved the alternative news they provided, and was surprised they were relatively balanced since Russia invaded Ukraine.

The only thing I like on RT is Max Kaiser. They surprisingly tried to be objective for a Russian channel, but only as long as the news did not comcern Russia. Also they weren't as good as Al Jazeera in covering untold stories.

I just presented facts that the mainstream media are not projecting to contextualize the argument about "hypocrisy" made by the OP.

You spoke a lot of untruths. That colonel was sacked for speaking out against his generals, calling them by name, and for calling for a revolution. No army will keep such a loose lipped idiot in their ranks. Regardless of his thoughts on his Generals competence or lack of it, that's rule 101 in the army, and he nailed his coffin by calling for a revolution which is an instant sack for any serviceman, and in olden days would be a court martial.

Secondly no children were deliberately targeted to be killed in Afghanistan. The ISIS bomber was targeted but they had the wrong info. Again an asinine attempt at a comparison between Biden and Putin

According to you, Zelensky is killing dissidents from Luhansk and Donetsk. Another propaganda. There has been war going on in Luhansk and Donetsk since 2014 and Zelensky's army is killing seperatists fighting in a war as he should, the same way Buharis army is entitled to kill any ISWAP or Boko Haram at war with Nigeria.

The only thing you got right in your post is Xis systematic erasure of the Uighurs.

Rational and mature interpretation of information is becoming a lot to ask in this social media age.

raumdeuter:
You remember when Tariq Aziz Iraqi foreign minister under Saddam dey claim say US forces were falling and eating grass while Baghdad was hours from falling

Hahahahaha. Hitler and Churchill were the King of that.

After Germany chased the British out of mainland Europe and nearly pushed them into the sea, instead of crying over the greatest military disaster, Churchill sold Dunkirk as the greatest humanitarian rescue effort ever seen. Fishermen all over Britain had to sail their boats down to France to pick up the soldiers and bring them home

PDPGuy:
I don’t agree with this new UCL format…But I guess UEFA had to placate the “Super League” teams in one way or another

This is absolute nonsense

EPL will have to cut 4 teams from the league and drop to a 16 man league to accommodate this nonsense

benalvino3:
Your opinion but it too flawed.

1 - In a war, you don't support who is winning or losing, you support who is morally right or the victim. By your logic, we should support nazi Germany when they started losing the war?

Not all news will be accurate in a time like this, Ukraine will want to make Russia look bad, Russia will want to makw ukrain look bad, China wants the west to look bad the west want the Russia to look bad. But you can tell the truth from propaganda. No one is saying Ukraine is winning, they are saying Ukraine is putting up fierce resistance.

2 - about the girls with guns, that's not propaganda, they are really picking up guns to fight... You haven't really been following the conflict. Those girls you see as some potential cheaters must have posted here may not be the ones carrying the guns, but girls like that are carrying guns, they didn't run instead stay to help make camouflage and support in anyway they can.

Your best post on NL

We are all grown folks.

In war, Governments feed their populace propaganda that they are winning or the other side is collecting serious blows in order to motivate their population to keep fighting with morale.

You have several Ukrainian boxers joining the defence and posing with guns. Do you really believe Usyk, Lomachenko and Klitshko brothers are out there exchanging gunfire with the Ruskies? That's just for motivation and to entice others to join the war effort.

I don't know why a grown man will see such propaganda and start to vex. What's understood does not have to be spelt out, nor cause anyone to get aggravated. Such is how war goes. Even in Biafra war, Ojukwu will convince you his Obunigwe and 5200 assorted rifles, including Dane guns is dealing the Nigerians severe blows, meanwhile Biafra is retreating on all fronts.

Barr's trying to sanitise himself of Jan 6!

He was already sanitised of that in Dec when he declared there was no material fraud

Android22:
Putin is a killer but Biden who nuked children in Afghanistan is a good man. After killing them and realizing his intelligence error, he went on to court martial the Lt. Colonel that outed him yet kept all the Generals that headed that operation. Xi of China does not have Oligarchs that should be sanctioned even when he is still killing Ugyur Muslims in his country. Yet they gave him the freaking Olympics to host. Zelensky that has been killing journalists since 2015. Silencing the opposition at every opportunity. Heck, dude had been killing dissidents from both Luhansk and Donetsk but the media never reported it. Those are heroes. But God forbid Putin does exactly what US did in Cuba - that is what gets woke crusaders going.

You sound like a Trumpanzee

mcdreeezy:
Ibime please drop a link let me read up on this aluminium wars and how Roman is connected to it, thanks.

Google aluminum wars Russia and follow any link

Amoto94:
There is a mention of Loutfy Mansoor as a potential buyer he's a season ticket holder as I am made to believe.

Any relation to Sheikh at Man City?

They should come and do battle in EPL, dollar for dollar

Havertz10:
America has bases in 70 countries those are the ones we know

Have invaded more than half of the world literally either by direct means or indirect

Russia that peacefully minds its business is the bad guy

Move to Russia or China aburo and see how you are treated in comparison

After all this shalaye, black man knows he is not welcome in Russia or China.

Kloppo:
if he is CLEAN,he surely will fight back....he has the means and connection...

When uefa wanted to suspend MAN CITY from champions League football over illegal money and sponsorships, did you see the number of lawyers man city owners hired to fight UEFA at the court of arbitration,they ended up winning...

Roman should have done that instead of running away like a pussyy,shows he is GUILTY as claimed......

What sort of comparison is this? Comparing breach of UEFA FFP Laws to International sanctions. Na wa oh. Roman has not been charged with anything so there is nothing to defend. A sanction is not even a charge of wrongdoing. A saint in Iran is sanctioned in America same as Soleimani and Ayatollah

kong200:
Putin is a tyrant for the current crisis in Ukraine but your likes never called Obama a tyrant for destroying Libya. Your likes never called Bush a tyrant for destroying Iraq. Your likes never called other Netanyahu for destroying Palestine. CNN is really working for your likes

Why is CNN catching all the flack here? Why not Fox News or ABC?

Kloppo:
They are "allowing" ROMAN to sell his properties and assets instead of SEIZING it outrightly while usmanov half a billion dollars yatch has been seized,your point is?

A man that sold his assets and donated it to Ukraine is a big FÜCK YOU to them, to show they are minions squabbling over what he is willing to give away

donjazet:
I think you partly make my point. Your entire post highlights the art of self preservation and that's logical.

A mans first duty is to his family. It's mostly psychopaths and people with low empathy that give up their life for political struggle or in pursuit of justice. Most rational men want to be alive to guide and love their children. Those willing to die for ideals usually end up being despots themselves if they ever make it to power because a man who is willing to give up his life for his ideals also expects the citizens to do the same. That's how most of those Chairman Mao and Lenin policies led to millions of death. And it didn't matter if people died, it was for the greater good. All of them from Putin, Hitler, Guevara, Fidel and co don't value their lives and lived recklessly and willing to die at any moment in their youth. Even that Sowore that will leave his family in Yankee for four years, fly to Nigeria to the heat of the action where he knows he is a wanted man, to come and start provoking the people in power, knowing he will get his movement restricted and not see his family for years. If that nigga ever seize power, he will be a despot down the line despite his good intentions because he has a despotic personality and little empathy for his daughter nor instincts of fatherhood and care.

donjazet:
But it's not enough. Not for someone who was responsible for this in the first place. He is more than wealthy enough and prominent enough to take an open stance against Putin. Or even achieve it via back channels. Roman now has a global image. He's not one who people will Just forget if something dared to happen. He's wealthy and influential enough in order strong European governments to effect visible change.

He has not done enough.

You can't go through life like this with no sense of pragmatism

That's like asking Dangote or Danjuma to go all out attack on FG

Most of his assets are in Russian companies. You are asking him to sign his death warrant and the impoverishment of his family like Berezovsky. Berezovsky was closest to Putin, formed and funded a political party with the sole aim of getting Putin elected. Criticised Putin after few months for changing laws so that the President could sack and appoint Governors. For that single criticism, Berezovsky is now dead after many years of exile and asset seizures. It's Berezovsky small boy Roman that you want to come and now raise shoulder. As things stand, nigga has already seen 30-40% of his wealth wiped out in the last week. He does not hold large shareholdings in Western countries. Russians don't so as not to get their assets frozen. Almost everything he owns was hammered on Russian stockmarket last week.

Roman is an Israeli at heart and also by Nationality. He can't come and kill himself over Russia matter anymore than say FBS will go on the street and jeopardise his family. Baba will soon pack up to Tel Aviv and let una kill unaself dey shout Russia, Russia. Nigga has protected himself from Western sanctions by having the Israelis fight his corner, and simultaneously protected himself from Putin by ensuring he tows Putin line. There is nothing like being friendly with a despot, you simply survive a despot by not rocking the boat. A despot has no friends.

One is supposed to learn from how Roman has kept both sides from attacking him, ensuring he is in good standing in both West and East. He does that mostly by keeping his mouth shut and is not afraid to lose money to gain acceptance, just like he gave away Chelsea just to keep his good name in the West. He bought Chelsea for £17m and it's now worth maybe £2bln and he's giving all the profit to Ukraine. That means the guy is ready to let go £2bln just to keep his political standing in the West. Same way he gave Berezovsky £1.3bln for patronage in Russia just to have good standing in Russia. Same way he's been donating tens of millions to Jewish causes to buy good standing in Israel. I'm sure in his mind he expects Israel to one day save him from Russian persecution itself, either from Putin or a future President. Baba has laid the trap already by entering Israeli society and getting good standing with them knowing they will die before giving up their own. Man knows how to manoeuvre, and how to give up money to keep his life and peace of mind.

In how many words can a man hint that he is not in support of the Ukraine war than by saying he will donate all profits from selling Chelsea to Ukraine war victims

When you are Russian, you don't come out and say you don't agree with Putin, that's almost suicide, but there are other ways to do it that Putin will understand and let you off.

Even FBS won't talk about his thought on the war, before he get a knock on the door from KGB, na Roman go come talk

Many Russian sports stars have been showing their sympathy without condemning the war because they know what that curtails. Smart men are not hot headed.

Hypocrisy?

I began searching when I heard it on C4. See the article is tucked away in, and post what you find when you search.

What did you think was happening before?

The pipeline that runs through Ukraine is still running and pumping gas. You want Europe to freeze?

Usyk has enlisted with Kyiv territorial defence

Putin has a 40 mile convoy stationed 20 miles outside of Kyiv ready to move in at any moment

I hope they are just using Usyk to motivate others and will put him in bunker when the Ruskies attack, because bullet no send who be World Champion

donjazet:
It's Snodgrass for me. I could have sworn this guy was playing for westham just yesterday. When did he age so much and go down to playing for Luton?

Snodgrass no need money again, this is just fun for him

Jerome is the type where he may or may not have made enough to retire but if he keep going, he can finish with enough

Good to see Cameron Jerome squeezing out his last payday at Luton. Man was part of the Stoke team in those days of Tony Pulis

Ukaku

Werner somehow has 1 goal and two assists this game despite stumbling over his feet and miscontrolling balls all game. Typical Werner

Popizaino I'm sure you like that RLC assist

Werner

Surprised he controlled that ball

Malang Sarr is just not up to the level. I'm sure we can get £10m for him in the summer

Werner is strictly a counterattack player who needs acres of space to run into. You won't get that against Luton

HewlettPackard:
Roman is Mad. Forfeiting 1.5bn, who are you trying to get on their good side.
Sir, I love and appreciate your fine work for the club over the years, if you must sell take what you deserve.

Man has much more money than the £10bln Forbes declares

Someone who paid $0.5bln for protection during the aluminium wars, and gave Beresovsky £1.3bln for patronage, has two yatchs worth £1.6bln, now walking away from £1.5bln. All that combined is nearly half of what they say he's worth and that's just throwaway money for him

But why can't Tuchel play Mbuyamba in this sort of game than putting RLC at CB

Sarr with the foolish offside attempt

Luton fans are singing "Sold in the morning, you're getting sold in the morning"

Saul on the beat

Donjazet, your Jorginho injury has mysteriously disappeared, to resurface at the next big game.
