This is the highlight of it all for me. The laws are for Western Opposers. This is why my sympathy for Ukraine keeps fluctuating. There is Hyprocrisy written all over nato and it's allies. They see Russia as the kid they can bully, but that kid won't fall to shame without first teaching someone, anyone a lesson ( most like a nato wannabe or a nato alliancer intself). Na Africa body den doe dey get power same Africa now can not stand against this Hyprocrisy and because of their dollars starched in the West 4 Likes

Truer words have never been said. Articles like this should be on the front page but unfortunately we live in a world of alternate reality where the lie is the truth and the truth made to look like the lie. Pathetic. 8 Likes 2 Shares |

I still keep on asking why is it that hate for America almost always come from the Muslims, and no Muslim condemn any terrorism attack, not even the one that is as bad as 9/11, all they see is Bush attacking their brother but never talk about what their brother did. Hypocrites. |

Op don't mind brainwashed pro western asslickers on this forum. They barely have any grip on reality. If they did, they would've known that the USA is the biggest bully in the world. The same USA that brushes off ICC as irrelevant wants ICC to step a foot into russia in search of Putin that is bigger than their entire existence The USA and even the entire west are too hypocritical for my liking. USA said they won't comply with ICC because they want immunity for their officials. They bombed Vietnam, Yemen, Syria, Iraq, Serbia etc without any organizational body there to hold their criminal ex presidents accountable. Like the article clearly stated, it is only poor zoo countries from Africa that are still bound by ICC. USA sanctioned all the ICC investigators who opened investigations on USA officials. It was Trump that later relieved some of their sanctions.. If ICC officials have mind, let them step a foot into russia. Let me see if they will return in one piece. Mynd, Lalasticlacla. This article deserves front page abeg let people be enlightened 5 Likes |

This article will give you a glimpse of how USA just bullies these idiots that only know how to do their job when it is the likes of Nigeria, Zimbabwe, Congo, Costa Rica etc that mistakenly commit war crimes Meanwhile, USA will bomb cities for months these fools no go make pim because of fear of sanctions which would include seizures of their entire assets in USA and her lapdog countries. Shaby ICC ordered putin to pull all Russian troops out of Ukraine? Putin just ignored them like I would to a complete fool. Let me see how their inconsequential asses will react 3 Likes

MangekyoAlt: They practice selective amnesia and think everyone else do so also... The people hating Russia have never read about Russia's History to see how in each Century, Western Europe had always been the aggressor trying to conquer it and Russia being the victor for most part and thereby gaining the conquered territory. They fail also to ask why NATO was created and in it was the Countries (Germany, France & Japan) who initiated the WWI & WWII. And also why they refused to accept Russia as a member if their intentions towards it is good. NATO was created in 1949 Warsaw pact by Soviet Russia was by 1955 as a counter to NATO 3 Likes 2 Shares |

Well said. The foreign policy of the United States is the major cause of chaos globally. Personally, I think the UN should be scrapped if it can't hold the west accountable for things like this. 3 Likes |

sapientia:No one is saying crime is good. But when you state the hypocrisy of only your crime being the good crime, then what do you portray? It's funny you'd say Russia should use it's influence to rein in USA when we all know that USA would rather wage war in all front. That's like telling me to use my influence to tell your family to punish/disown you when we all know your family would be biased towards you. The ICC/ICJ that is so much touted, how many times has US heeded to its ruling when it's against them? Russia lost a vast part of its power after the desolation of Soviet Union and took up the debts of each members. While it was battling to repay off these debts & rebuild it's economy, these members sourced for greener pastures (ably championed by your friendly US trying to encircle Russia). Russia then was like a child that could be bullied and kicked while down, but now is a man that will take on his bully or die trying.
Stalin signed a none-aggression pact with Hitler. Stalin's invasion of Poland was to safeguard the lives of ethnic Ukrainians and Belarusians there. You see this being the same reason they went to Georgia and now Ukraine. When you threaten the existence of their citizens within your place with genocide, they have no option than to come to their aid. Same as US would go to war for their citizen. So if you're a neighbor and because of the desolation of the Soviet Union some Russians were displaced into you country and you feel to use their lives as sports, Russia would come to help repay the debt. You had to bring your inconsequential geographical location with no sense of identity into a discuss about nations... The reason your country doesn't have basic amenities is because it has no identity and true identity comes from being a nation comprising of one dominant ethnic (or closely related groups) that knows and implements their cultural visions & goals. Without that, you'd have a band-aid of warring jesters. Take it that each tribe (ethnic & closely related groups) are holding a rope to a cart (Nigeria) and drawing to opposing directions, the more evenly matched their strength, the more stagnant the cart and sooner the cart begins to rupture when stretched to its limit. That's why your country has been stagnant for years because no one is dominant enough to enforce their vision. The only option is to break up totally (and each tribe with related tribes become a country) or use the India style of tribal/language confederated states. These sort of band-aid was why Czechoslovakia, Yugoslavia etc disbanded... Check almost all successful American, European, Asian and North African Countries, you'd find them being one country and one dominant tribe. So Africa (Mostly West, Central & South) needs to disband and reform itself according to tribe. Read about the fall there. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dissolution_of_the_Soviet_Union If NATO wasn't against Russia then why didn't they admit them during 1949-50 nor when Putin came asking twice as President? China already a communist nation had a Sino-Russia treaty by 1950 so there was no need to. Although cause of rift Lenin in subsequent decades still contributed to that and coming from a bloody civil war, they wanted to rebuild and not entertain any war. But now that they've grown they are making demands from your beloved US, heard about how how Chinese J20 5th Gen and F35 5th Gen had a run recently and the F35 managed to fly home without crash while the J20 was unperturbed? That's them telling US to respect their territory. Russia is overrated and yet, they've been the first to break barriers even under sanctions since 1950... Let's just let you be 1 Like |

He also delibrately invaded Ukraine with the aim that the U.S would be Provoked and engage him in a war. |
