    Omnibus Russia Ukraine crisis

    I didn't know you have to attack buildings to be angry. I think that Russians are more angry at the fact that the EU is courting a country which borders Russia and the stationing of NATO troops along the Russian border. They're also angry at the shameful treatment of ethnic Russians within...

    Omnibus Russia Ukraine crisis

    Correct. America and Britain. It's alright for us to invade Iraq and Afghanistan and bomb schools and hospitals but it's not okay for the Russians to do it to Ukraine in response to EU and NATO expansionism and belligerence.

    Omnibus Russia Ukraine crisis

    As an American, you have no right to condemn Russia for invading a sovereign state and bombing its citizens, because your country is even better at it.

    Omnibus Russia Ukraine crisis

    How do you imagine America would have felt had the Eastern Bloc stationed thousands of troops along your Mexican border and Mexico wanted to join the USSR? But you expect Russia to sit back quietly and accept a similar scenario?

    Omnibus Russia Ukraine crisis

    I think Ukraine cosying up to the EU, NATO troops being posted along the Russian border and the shocking treatment of ethnic Russians in Ukraine caused Russia to invade. The EU and NATO - much more expansionist than Russia - are to blame for this war. If you're going to spend years menacingly...

    Well most Northern Irish wish to be British. Using your analogy eastern Ukraine should be Russian, which is their desire.

    Omnibus Russia Ukraine crisis

    America and Britain have invaded more countries over the last twenty years than Russia has. And why's it okay for Britain and America to recognise rebel areas of Syria but evil when Russia recognises rebel areas of Ukraine?

    So it's not alright for the Russian leader to jail his political opponents but okay for the Ukrainian leader to do it?

    Omnibus Russia Ukraine crisis

    The Donetsk Oblast: that's one of the areas of eastern Ukraine Russia has just invaded, the bit filled with ethnic Russians who want to be part of Russia, just like Crimea. And who can blame them? The ethnic Russians of Ukraine have had to put up with years of having their language banned and...

    Omnibus Russia Ukraine crisis

    So it's alright for the Ukrainian president to imprison his political opponents but not alright for the Russian president to do it? Jut think, Ukraine wants to join the EU but it's not going to get anywhere near doing that whilst its supposed "heroic" president locks up his political opponents.

    Omnibus Russia Ukraine crisis

    Is anyone else feeling just a little repulsed by this, by these insinuations of racism being made against Ukrainians and Poles as they try their damndest to deal with one of the worst crises of recent times? It goes without saying that everyone who wants to flee Ukraine for the safety of a...

    Discussion of Ukraine War

    I found out the other day that the Ukrainians have been banning the Russian language in their country and treating the ethnic Russians in the eastern breakaway regions that the Russians have taken over as second class citizens and that these citizens were calling on Russia for help. And we're...
