Western Propaganda,
You instigate people to go to war and when the war come you hide behind your fannies spewing trash.

I pity Ukraine, they are now facing Putin's 40 miles long military convoy.

I wouldn't want to be Ukraine.

How did you know it is 40 mile long? Was it not from the same western media you people love to hate that broke the news about the convoys?

You people cherry pick what you want to believe from the so called western media.... And disregard the ones that don't suit your narrative.

Rubbish.

Go and buy sense bro cos obviously its far from you..A direct confrontation with Russia?like seriously?how old are you self?why hasn't the west attacked North Korea directly?abi what North korea have been doing are all very good too abi?its kids like you that rush and land into trouble without thinking things carefully and latter regretting their stupid actions kinda like your mad mentor Putin..
You sef need to borrow sense, Russia is wrong for invading Ukraine US&NATO refused to take part in the war they left Ukraine in midst of the mess they pushed them into by giving them high hope and applauding President Zelensky as a hero for resisting, if the US&NATO aren’t scared of going into war why can’t they have a direct confrontation with Russia? You speak of North Korea let me remind you that they didn’t invade any country they only tested missiles, let this be a Middle East country that’s invading another country the US&NATO will hurriedly send troops to run them down, on a nutshells every country on earth are scared to go to war with the Russians and that’s the fact, earlier Ukraine discover this better for them to open a ceasefire talks and dialogue otherwise they will only crush their country to dust

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is widely regarded as a National Hero.
But he has decided to sacrifice 40 Million People to achieve 'Heroism', which is dumb.


For your information, this is not a Russia-Ukraine War. The war is happening in Ukraine and Zelenskyy has decided to sacrifice Ukraine as the Slaughter Ground.


Nairaland War Mongers should sit up and get the facts before spewing trash for likes.

When next you want to blame Putin, ask yourself if USA would fold her hands and watch another country set up a military base with state-of-the-art equipment in Cuba or Mexico.


Ukraine would never remain the same again and it would take years to build back the structures which are being decimated.


Just pause and think about hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians who woke up one day and abandoned their work, businesses, families and career to flee to neighboring countries where they become refugees.




Lol you guys are funny. Many countries have military base in the US, just as the US also have in other countries.... You can look it up. So just delete this.

The real men of war are coming and as am talking, the heaviest explosion in Ukraine after WWII just happened. I think it is the ISKANDER. Clear road for Russia first come first collect. I told you guys the war starts this evening. Remember our 40 miles convoy never still reach Ukraine. When we finally arrive both civilians and military go hear word.

But Russia is good right?

Of course, Russia is good.

Russia never participated in the colonization of Africa.

You will agree with me that several African countries will never recover from the damage the colonization of Africa by their colonial masters has done to them, Nigeria included.

Russia never participated in slave trade market.

Russia has never invaded any other country without a good and true reason/s.

Have you ever seen Russia sanction another country because that country refused to accept homosexuality as a way of life?

But 2018 World Cup exposed the West in the sense that Russia was opened to the world to see the amazement and wonders in Russia, that it's a country that cares for her citizens. A country that have plans for her citizens. That which West can do for her citizens, she too can do it.

Putin might be a Dictator, Devil or whatever name we wish to call him but he's better than 200 Buhari sum together.

He's a man who breaks all odds to protect the territory of Russia and her citizens not the vegetable we have here.

Though I'm not a fan of war, I stand with Putin.

No fear factor. Abacha was a bad man but He brought that Fear factor.

Even French Minister got scared and changed words used against Russia after he got response from Medvedev of Russia..( Medvedev is a former president of Russia)

3/1/2022, 12:28:34 PM
Medvedev warns on consequences of economic war
Victor Mallet in Paris
Dmitry Medvedev, deputy head of Russia’s security council and a former president, has warned that economic wars have “turned into real ones” in response to a French threat to provoke the collapse of the Russian economy.
“Today, some French minister has said that they declared an economic war on Russia. Watch your tongue, gentlemen!” he said on Twitter on Tuesday. “And don’t forget that in human history, economic wars quite often turned into real ones.”
Earlier, French finance minister Bruno Le Maire said the west was using sanctions to wage “total economic and financial war against Russia, Putin and his government”. Le Maire said: “We will provoke the collapse of the Russian economy.”
After Medvedev’s tweet, Le Maire told Agence France Presse that he should not have used the word “war”, calling it “inappropriate and out of step with France’s strategy for de-escalation.”
He added: “We are not in a conflict with the Russian people.”
This post has been updated to include Le Maire’s response.

Lol. One thing I am still confused about his how they are unable to read Putin body language. The guy already taken everything into consideration and prepare for anything that would happen. He knows that if Russia demands are not meant now he can never be met again. Russia already seen this as a war just waiting for any fool in the west to join. He has ordered the nuclear to be put at high alert and these foolish western politicians are still thinking it is a joke. smh. Sure Russia can't win them combined but Putin will nuke everywhere than loosing.

Please just read between the lines and pick one or 2 things which you can do investigating journalism on.( Please don't mind my English as I'm a little busy and have to respond quickly)

Putin was formerly a Top KGB spy who was based in Germany during Soviet union.

He was very good at his job then and keep only few people very close to him hereby making information about his next move difficult to get.

Though he is fighting for the right of Russia to survive and be treated as equals by the West while all the west has done due to US insistence is trying to make Russia irrelevant in the world and this gets on Putin's nerve.

The west want Russia out of the way as she is the main obstacle to their aim for world domination.( This is a fact know by most world leader know this but can't do much as the west control most of the world economy and media)

Russia can not defeat the west alone but several Countries will definitely join the war against US and Nato if they go to war with Russia. ( WW3 will break out and it will be deadliest war ever). Russia is part of CSTO which is not as powerful as NATO as they're very few and also have allies all over the world.

Despite the above, Russia is more than able to do tremendous damage to the US and NATO alone even without support from another country and they know this and ain't ready for military intervention in Ukraine which will quickly lead to WW3.

Many countries are waiting patiently for the west to make the move and west Knows this...


Russia have a genuine demand which the West Knows but their Oga at the top is the one that tells them NO as they're trying to negate Russian advantage in missile defense and incapacitate her hereby having a advantage in any future war with Russia.

Me I like the west but have to be objective because US will never accept 1/10th of what they're doing to Russia.( They would have gone to war a long time ago)

Just think about this, US threatened World court ( ICJ) seriously when they wanted to look into criminal activities committed by US soldiers in wars and they quickly stopped! Isreal did the same!!

But you have former Yugoslavia and some former presidents of African countries sentenced to prison by the same ICJ with Western backing.(The West Lord over others).

Historically speaking, does the United States trace their origin from Canada?

Fidel Castro accepted the concept of communism, and US was never comfortable with Cuba the whole time exactly the same way Russia is not comfortable with the idea of Ukraine becoming a NATO member.

It's on record that US tried so hard to destroy Cuba with so many economic sanctions.

All the middle east countries the US tried to control their government, does the US trace their origin from there?

The right of covertly or overtly influencing the government of another country when you are a super power nation yourself should not be strictly that of the United States alone.
