so in essence let the big countries continue bullying small countries with reckless abandon.

abbey621:
Like I said before arguing on bullshit point is a waste of time...Please continue arguing with your keyboard.

YellowMayor:
They would have fought back

abbey621:
I'm tired of explaining it to you, why did you think the international community backed down when Crimea was annexed? It's simple, the people of crimea followed due democratic process, they held their ballots and voted to be part of Russia instead of Ukraine, there's nothing stopping the others from doing the same. In fact, Russia would have more supporters that way than just blindly invading, this ain't the 1930s!

Now to your other point, if you are genuinely comparing a response to a direct attack or a defense of allies the same as invading a nation all in the name of showing dominance then I'm not going to waste my time with you anymore, Iraq was a mistake and even the American people were against it but Afghanistan? Really? You're going to defend that? Come on dude, have a little self respect!

abbey621:
Come on that's revisionist history! You're being deliberately mischievious here! Vietnam was a full blown war with causation as the people of South Vietnam did not want communism imposed on them, it's like the Biafran people officially declaring separation from Nigeria and the outside world accepted only for Nigeria to bomb them and attempt to wipe them out, essentially provoking the international community. Furthermore, Libya was well justified as their own people overthrew Gaddafi nothing else and Afghanistan harbored an immediate threat not only Bin LAden but Al Queada as a whole, in the aftermath of 911, it would be crazy for the U.S to sit back and let them continue to scheme another attack. The only solid point here is Iraq and which the USA is still paying dearly for even after two decades, Iraq was Bush's personal vendetta and majority of Americans knew he was full of sh*t!

abbey621:
You don't get it do you? You're trying to justify a full blown invasion of a country and I told you the citizens have to revolt. I don't care about the percentage, if the revolt is not comprehensive enough then it will be squashed. Crimea citizens exercised their rights and were annexed, nothing is stopping other regions within Ukraine from doing the same but you are talking about something different, you're talking about an invasion, physical violence and that ain't it chief!

Poopypants:
so in essence Russia dictates what Ukraine can and can’t do?

abbey621:
Then let those people rise up against the Ukranian government. Once they revolt, justification becomes easy but if you are talking about less than 10% of the poupulation then that hardly counts as insurrection....lol.

Koko be say, unless those people revolt and cause a revolution, Russia has no ground on invasion and will be met by the full force of NATO, this ain't the USSR my nigga, that crap ended over 70 years ago

WibusJaga:


Maybe the penalty miss was a blessing in disguise. Madrid would have had enough time to fight back & probably equalise.
But that last minute Mbappe goal was simply out of this world. Brilliant!

Poopypants:
Yet some animals on this website from a dying country , choose to believe whatever their imaginations cook up in support of Russia , over videos, news and proof that Russia wants to invade a democratic country (Ukraine), because they want and chose to do what their people unequivocally agreed to. Most Nigerians are a special breed of ignorant chimps.

SmartPolician:
You cannot compare the economic prosperity of USA with that of Russia. That explains why many people, including Russians and the Chinese, are relocating in their droves to the US, UK and Canada.

SmartPolician:
Vladimir Putin invests a lot of resources in their military; the same resources he ought to use for promoting economic prosperity. From Prime Minister to President, he doesn't want to leave the corridors of power.

Communism is no longer fashionable in today's world because humans will always demand freedoms and economic prosperity. Much as it appears that Russians like Putin, I strongly believe that the day the former Soviet superpower will have a new leader will truly mark the end of the cold war between the US and Russia.

Putin should not drag over 146 million people into a stupid war he could have avoided. It's easy to start a war but nobody knows how and when it will end. You are dealing with NATO here, not just the Americans. Common sense, not ego, should prevail.

Frankiss44:
The message to the citizens was clear, leave now because when confrontation will start it will be very bloody and there will be no time for rescue missions .. That alone meant he US wasn't joking. The US know that if they don't send the right message to Russia, China will take advantage and invade Taiwan too.. And the US president still made it clear that the door is very open for Ukraine to join NATO so if your Putin wan invade make e invade now because it is just a matter of time and Ukraine will be a full NATO member.. We both know that if the US had stayed neutral and remained quiet, Putin would have invaded since.. Putin knows this is a war he can't win, no one counter can win a war right now against multiple countries... Na when the war go start na u go know say America get mumu botton for all e allies, and they will have no option than to join.. Who Russia go fit really beat their chest say go join them for this war? The Americans will always bring the war closer to him and the believe putin will use anything close to a nuclear weapons, because even when it comes to that, America is more than equal.. And mark this, Ukraine will still join NATO

Frankiss44:
Is anything stopping you from learning the language of a country you so much love and admire?

Frankiss44:
Funny thing be say if you give them visa to Russia, China or US, we know the one country these people go choose

Winters23:
But France that is ripping off 14 African countries are the good guys abi?

Continue

Frankiss44:
LOL.. Like I do tell people, na only nairaland people dey see Russia and Putin as God.. May God keep us alive to see the day Ukraine will finally join NATO

Frankiss44:
Then they should be better attack now because it is just a matter of time the Ukraine will join NATO..

Frankiss44:
As in the Russians were not having sleepless nights in the snow too at the border... Putin chickened it, know this and know peace.. At one point, it was like the US wanted the war more than them.. And he didn't see that coming

SmartyPants:
How is the bolded a bad thing? It just means they are now better prepared in the event of an actual invasion. I don't get why you think that is so bad.

And i don't know why you think Sanctions are "just" sanctions. Do you know how the world works? What would Russia gain by invadng Ukraine and wrecking its economy due to the crippling sanctions that would be inflicted??

timay1:
You mean the whole world will go to war because of a freezing wasteland in Ukraine?

Seriously?

You do realize every country has their shit to deal with right now.

Even Germany who is the biggest EU member and France to some extent had shown sign of not joining any war for Ukraine and have always insisted on dialogue. And these are the big guys in NATO that vetoed that Ukraine should not be admitted after they applied, because they don't want a conflict with Russia in Europe

adelaja70:
In seconds? Lmao! Do you know Ukraine get nuclear weapons left BY OLD USSR?

jesmond3945:
how is it bad? Lol. Somebody that can destroy ukraine in seconds? Somebody that can turn off the gas tap and half of europe will freeze to death. Somebody that macron begged for 6 hours, even biden called him several times. If the born ukraine well let them join NATO.

SmartyPants:
But russian soldiers have also been sleeping in the snow for the same period of time. so what is funny really?

Besides, you can easily argue that the period of preparation was useful training for the Ukrainians. Of course, people like me always knew Russia was merely playing games, and so did everyone else, but make no mistake - this was a test of the western powers willingness to act.

now that Putin knows they won't sit idly by, the test is over.

Whobedatte:
Russia and gra gra wan instigate world war with economy not as big as a state like Texas

Exactly how I was planning to yell at my ex boss but I just had to leave the toxic environment, I left their job for them and I ThankGod I am in a place of peace.

helinues:
Take them to court quickly, one of their members close to the royalty family or leaders fit don donate the land for the church without the consent of others.

Na so we woke up one morning, the big flat big screen has disappeared while the bro we were staying with then who was a member of Christ embassy was no where to be found. Mixed thoughts about being robbed or bad things happened as the bro was unreachable.

When he came back, he said he is the one who took the Tv to the church cos they asked them to donate what they cherish most to God...

That church get format for mouth gan

TjoBATHONG:
Zungu said we currently have 30% of the economy - that's more than the size of the Kenyan GDP. So it's possible to double that within a few decades. You were creating a false impression of a useless and assetless black in SA and that's a damn lie and very ignorant

Of course blacks aren't gonna own everything yet despite being the majority because of something called apartheid. Read up on it before making stupid comments. What u refuse to acknowledge is that there's tremendous progress - the best example being how u ignored the fact that blacks grew the economy fourfold and gained 30% of that in record time

Go concentrate on why after 60 years of mismanagement and Africa's biggest oil wealth you're still the Poverty capital of the world, living off a quarter of SA's per capita income and japaring everywhere else including poorer countries

TjoBATHONG:
The last time I checked we were challenging whites through the power of the wallet. We now own a third of the country's GDP from nothing 20 years ago and set to double that in the next 10 years.

We've also grown the country's GDP fourfold from where the whites left it (CNN source)

Argue with the FACTS!

WillyWonda1:
I quite understand you well. But you see there's limit to which you can be patient. This man literally frustrates my work. He assigns works that I'm not supposed to do at all to me and I do with all diligence. This is an organization, and there are ways things are done. But he wants to always show himself.
I don't regret my action in any way at all.
