Very very interesting. I pray for innocent Ukrainians
Re: Could Russia Be Putin's Afghanistan? by Nobody: 2:56pm On Feb 25, 2022
This is a clear indication that international laws, alliance: NATO, EU, UN and the US are totally less concerned! Sanctions ain't enough!!

How can they all standby watching Putin taking over Ukraine ....

Does their silence signifies weakness as against Russia?

Nigeria or some other sovereign country can actually be hijacked !

I don't believe Russia has intention of occupying. I suspect the two main agenda is to annex lands that have large ethnic Russians and to change the government in Kyiv

I believe by next month the whole issue would be resolved diplomatically.

The world has got to the point in which wars aren’t popular again.
true. I pray it should. We can't afford taking humanity and all we've built backwards.

Una no dey tire??
Putin this, Putin that, for how many years now.

This week, every analysis and strategist opinion ever written by the Western media has been demystified.


Putin is the top dog and nobody can challenge him. #Fact

You’re the kind of people that will urge someone into a fight , but disappear when that person is beaten.

Even Russians are protesting Putin’s behavior and you are here calling Him “Top Dog” because He can bully Ukraine. Continue.

Afghanistan is not Ukraine... Ukraine means more to Russia than Afghanistan
Re: Could Russia Be Putin's Afghanistan? by bluefilm: 3:04pm On Feb 25, 2022
I think this article is wrongly titled.

I think the correct title should have been Could Ukraine be Putin's Afghanistan?

Please enough of all this misinformation. The US aided Afghanistan in the war that's why USSR lost. They should not make it look like the Afghan won it on their on.

Is it also a coincidence that Osama Bin Laden who help won the Afghan war became one of the US number one enemy? That's how the US treat their supposed alley.

You are blaming the person who was bombed for wasting innocent lives, what kind of reasoning is this?

Russia is in a class of their own , my foot. Keep on supporting a brutal thieving dictator that even Russians are protesting against.

Re: Could Russia Be Putin's Afghanistan? by grandstar(m): 3:24pm On Feb 25, 2022
This war would have been avoided if Ukraine and the West both decided to swallow their pride. It's not easy but it would be better than the mess now

Look at the issue about the Bakassi peninsular that was handed over to Cameroon during OBJ's tenure? Just imagine if Nigeria preferred a war than handling the place over? Nigeria would spend a 100 times more than it had ever spent on the people of Bakassi ever since it was part of Nigeria waging in retrospect, an unnecessary war.

Swallowing nationalistic pride isn't easy for nations but in many cases, would prevent extremely ruinous wars like what we see today.

Terrorists & insurgency only thrive on Democratic territories or puppet dictators. Because the countries are afraid of human rights groups in the west & getting cut off from dollars.... Russian Afghanistan ish failed I think not only due to Americans sponsoring terrorists as usual but also differences, language & cultural barriers. Same reasons d Afghans defeated their sponsors Americans decades later.

Afghanistan is farher away from Russia. It was a mountain based war. Russia now has Missiles stockpiled that can eliminate UKraine in one week.

Let Aghanistan and Pakistan try Russia today and see.

They will use drones to bomb those mountains and level it

War Dynamics has changed seriously


Go back to history!
Taliban's have fvcked Russian military before
