The other day, he tagged the UK DailyMail as propaganda. Today, he's tagging Trump's tweet as disinformation. Only his scarred face knows what he will do tomorrow. ๐Ÿคก
But the dailymail is a propaganda channel.

@ariesbull a million likes for your post. You've just summarized the whole and true premise for the special military operation. The West has a good way of painting narratives. I personally never knew about Zelensky's atrocities in Eastern Ukrain until 2022 when writer and others here enlightened us after the operation had begun. Not even once had I ever come across anything from BBC, my former favorite source, condemning it. They did the same thing with the Palestinian issue. If they're the right kind of victims, you can bomb them to extinction with no problem. They'll even justify it and call them terrorists or something.
You can also notice the double standards in the application of international law.

In Taiwan, they are treating it as independent country and failfully justify why it should be independent, secede and pursue self-determination

In Serbia, international law was applied so that Kosovo can gain independence against the wish of most Serbs.

Yugoslavia and USSR birthed many countries, and China is on the menu, with plans for Hong Kong, Taiwan, Xinjiang, Tibet, and even Macao to secede.

But somehow, the secession of the Russian speaking Region just doesnt apply to Ukraine. All they shout is territorial integrity.

They know that if they give the Russian speaking Ukrainians chance to vote for secession, it would be an overwhelmingly yes.

International law is basically the rule for weaker countries to follow, while stronger countries can ignore it.

Western hypocrisy stinks.

The DailyMail is a pro-Western propaganda channel.

The folk I mentioned up there is a pro-Ukrainian supporter who turned around to tag the Daily Mail as a pro-Russian propaganda outlet after the Daily Mail posted news confirming the defeat of Ukraine.

Apparently, the news didn't sit well with him and was too hard to bear.

These pro Israel guys are funny. Dem just dey score own goal every where.



All of a sudden Disobedience has remembered that US have a military policy dating back to Lyndon John to arm Israel with the best weaponry ahead of her neighbors.



Here, he's telling us that different administration in the White House comes with different foreign policy , plus Turkey bought Russian S-400. Hence, It wasn't because of Israeli national interest.



Here, he didn't know about long-standing US military doctrine about arming which started under POTUS Lyndon Johnson.


From the exhibit he willingly presented here. What it means is that even if Turkey did not buy Russian S-400 air defense system, US will still kick them out of the F-35 program cox it's a threat to Israeli national security.
You are something else dude.. If the US never wanted Turkey they won't be invited into the program in the first place..

Turkey is and will never been seen as a threat to the Jews.. stop spinning false narratives.. Turkey is in NATO and a prospective member of the EU.. They are never a threat to the Jews.. How will a Nato member attack a Country like Israel which has an ironclad relationship with the US...

In the case of Saudi and Qatar I only seek to educate you the reasons why they won't be getting cutting edge weapons from the US and the reason is because of the "Jewish state"

These are two distinct scenarios.. Turkey as a principal member of NATO has access to cutting edge weapons from the US..

Turkey was removed from the program because of it's S-400 purchase
While the Arabs nations wouldn't be getting the F35 also because of a standing policy of QME offer to Israel..

This is my last take on this issue..
Whatever you choose to believe is not my problem..

I think you're over exaggerating the US military prowess or you're misinformed, no country is capable of sustaining a war economy for 50 years, not even NATO or the combo of both China and Russia.

In addition, the US pulled out of Vietnam not only because of the rising casualties but also because it was economically unsustainable. Nixon had to clean up the mess Lyndon made by pulling out of Vietnam because he was smart enough to realize it was a dead end.

No doubt the US has quite a formidable military
grin grin
I am not exaggerating oo. I honestly believe so. If the US can sustain the Vietnam war for over 20 years at a time when it wasn't the economic powerhouse of the world, I think it can do so for a war against its own self.
I am talking about the extremities of the extreme where government no longer cares about debt ratio, standard of living or whatever. In a war economy, government will not care about "rising cost" as you mentioned.
However, I know it won't come to that sha cos why spend such a very long time on conventional war when a single nuclear strike can simply do the do.

20billion worth of aid.. and almost half a million troops..

Not counting north Korea, and the Soviet Union military aid..
And those deranged dogs won't say that US practically fought both the Chinese and the Soviets. ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ
But if it is Ukraine, they will say Russia is fighting 40 million NATO countries.

So how come US is offering F-35 to India even though Delhi have S-400?
Can you explain to me? This is the same reason why they removed Turkey, an important NATO member. I still maintain that Israel pressured US to remove Turkey from that list.

The U.S. military's direct involvement in the Vietnam War, from the escalation of combat troops in 1965 to the withdrawal of the last combat troops in 1973, lasted for approximately 8 years.

No country or groups of countries are capable of sustaining a war economy for 50 years, I believe you were speaking hypothetically, all the parameters you listed above would lead to the collapse of any government ( read more on anarchism )

Especially with the slave trade sha. But what hurts the most was the fact that even some of our own people (blacks) aided it. This is the one that hits the most. And after centuries upon centuries, we refused to grow and still blame what was done in the past.

Another classic Zelensky flip-flop.

๐Ÿ”น First, he demands negotiationsโ€”because his forces are crumbling.
๐Ÿ”น Then, he insists on more European involvementโ€”because he knows the U.S. is pulling back.
๐Ÿ”น Now, 30 days โ€œmay not be enoughโ€โ€”because he wants to drag this out indefinitely and milk Western aid dry.
This is what happens when your โ€œleaderโ€ is nothing more than a war profiteer in a green t-shirt, stalling for time while his country is being obliterated.
If Ukraine truly wanted peace, they wouldnโ€™t have sabotaged it twice already.

The situation in Novaya Sorochina, Stara Sorochina and Malaya Loknya in the Kursk region. Enemy fortifications around populated areas are simply littered with the bodies of Ukrainian militants.

Zelensky will have the killing continueโ€”the price heโ€™s willing to pay to get Donbas and the Crimea, historically always Russian. Putin is evil, but in this he is right. If Zelensky persists, he will usher in WW III or see his nation absorbed back into the Russian Empire.

๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ’ฌ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡งZelensky wants to give 8 Odessa ports to Britain for 30 billion pounds

๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿ”ŠAmid ongoing negotiations between American and Russian officials, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky reportedly intends to haโ‰๏ธnd over 8 Odessa ports to the British for 30 billion pounds!

Earlier, the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) reported that London opposes peace initiatives aimed at resolving the conflict in Ukraine.

โ€œBritain fears that losing control over Ukraine would undermine its strategy of creating an anti-Russian zone of states and establishing a โ€˜blockadeโ€™ from the Black Sea,โ€ SVR sources said.

โ€œBritain has its own plans for Ukraine. Their special services are heavily involved there, as are their own soldiers. The British make no secret of their desire to establish a military naval base in Odessa.โ€

For the unsuspecting reader: Zionists want you to equate Israel with "the Jews" and judaism. Don't fall for their tricks. They want to criminalise criticism of Israel by equating Israel to a religion (they don't actually know that Judaism is a religion) and criticism of it to antisemitism. The last time I talked about this, many people here who weren't Zionists tried to fight me on this and proclaimed their right and wish to fall into this Zionist trap.

Europe's ready. One deranged old mongrel can no longer determine how a sovereign nation should conduct it's own affairs.

The Ukrainian General Staff confirmed it has withdrawn from Sudzha in the direction of the Ukrainian state border. Geolocated footage already confirmed Russian presence in Sudzha several days ago.

Meanwhile, let's wait for our Nairaland armchair war veterans who claimed that over 7,000 Ukrainian troops have been surrounded.

Founder of the largest American PMC Blackwater Erik Prince said โ€œThe Russians are very good at electronic warfare. A lot of the American equipment - the Javelin missiles, the HIMARS, the Copperhead, which are guided artillery shells - they only work for a week or two. But the Russians have figured out how to jam navigation or command communications, and all that stuff goes dead.

When you look even at what's happening in Ukraine, first of all, don't listen to the idiot politicians who say that we've destroyed the Russian army. No, we've used up a lot of material. The Russian army has become infinitely smarter. If you shot at a Russian with artillery in March or April 2022, it would take him 1.5 hours to accurately respond. Now it's about 2 minutes. That means if you're shooting at them, you better sit in your car and drive away. Because otherwise they're going to get you.โ€
