Same way they baited Russia and it fell for it.
Now they are signing 10yrs war defence deal with Ukraine meaning they have no intentions for a peace deal, they want to exhaust Russia and force her into a nuclear option.

Same they tried with China and this presido is telling you I was smart enough to avoid it " for now"
China is booming and the last thing they want is a Russia - Ukraine scenario.




Everytime y'all keep saying exhaust Russia this, weaken Russia that.

The West, do they grow money, weapons and ammunition on trees??

Are they not exhausting and weakening themselves as they claim to do to Russia??

Everyday European and NATO leaders keep complaining of how they've completely exhausted all their weapon stock.

There's no day that goes by without Stoltenberg begging NATO members to increase production of weapons and ammunition, that they have nothing left to give. What does that tell you?

You see US & European leaders fighting about who's next to provide weapons to Ukraine. What more signs do you need to know that NATO has thoroughly weakened itself.


Many (at least 30) European countries are now left without air defense systems, artillery systems, some have no aircraft or tanks in their inventory anymore.

They complain about this every freaking day, don't you read the news??

US top defense leaders have bitterly complained about their reserves running on critical levels. Is that not enough to tell you how battered NATO is?

Trump has said similar stuff, Scholz has, Polish PM, Estonia, Finland, Sweden and dozens of other NATO countries have given every single weapon they have.

The last shells and weapons (including aircrafts) given to Ukraine was sourced from outside Europe and US. What does that tell you?


So tell me who has weakened who? Use your common sense.

⚡ALEKSANDAR VUCIC:

"I have one question for you: can you watch Chinese or Russian TV in Switzerland?

[In Germany, we cannot. In Switzerland, we can have Russia Today, but in Germany, everything is forbidden.]

If it's forbidden, is it a democracy?

In Serbia, you can watch Ukrainian TV, Russian TV, Chinese TV, and also American TV, British TV, Swiss TV, French TV, German TV—whichever you want. That's your choice.

Who is defining what democracy is?

You know, when I was very young, almost a kid, I was very bad at drawing or painting—totally untalented.

I drew a horse, but the horse didn't look like a horse. I had to make an inscription below saying, 'This is a horse.'

That's what they do today.

When nobody sees that there are democratic forces, they say, 'We are democracy, and you are not.' And that's it."

Facts.

Many of our western-pro brothers here don't even know that there is more censorship and policing of free speech in the west than you have elsewhere in the East.

The same Chinese that the imperial Japanese dealt with in ww2, or is it another Chinese you are talking about
the same China that was under the rule of the imperial Japanese empire If not for the USA entering the war in the pacific, the whole Asia would be speaking Japanese language now.

in the Korea war China was fighting on home turf, the USA had to do mobilisation from north America, then transfer weapons and man power from across the Atlantic, the Chinese were also fresh, the USA forces were battle weary fighting the NK invasion.
And also the battle ended on a stalemate the Chinese never gain any ground, they only prevented the USA have taking the whole Korea, when the Chinese tired to counter they were also pushed back, so sir what your points?
.

Are you seriously comparing China as it is now with Japan that is practically still under occupation?

The way you jump from one topic to another is the reason I hate talking to your likes. Stay focused on the topic for Christ sake. This is not imperial Japan or old China.

US war hawks like Lindsey Graham mouthing on taking on China or Russia in a direct war is pure lunacy.

⚡Ukraine has released almost 3,000 prisoners on the condition that they fight in the war against Russia.

All prisoners are allowed to sign up for the program except sex offenders, serial killers, and those who've committed political crimes.

Skeptical prisoner Serhii Lytvynenko:

"I'm not sure they're really going to treat us as normal fighters.

We don't know right now if they're going to take you and just throw you in like meat."

ME : The Greeks brought bout Democracy stop this embarrassing beer parlour talk.

You : after the fall of Greece and Rome the concept of democracy was dead and lost to history books.

Question : Who brought Democracy?
...

Guy are you okay fr o?

Marxism is a political philosophy and a means of socioeconomic analysis, Democracy is a system of Govt.

Democracy was in practice during Karl Marx Lifetime, the father of Marxism, so how did Marxism revive Democracy in the modern World?

Somebody should reach out to this guy at this point.

This one no normal again o😂😂😂😂😂

Ignore him. Americans that started practicing what was termed as Republic democracy before karl Marx was even thought of being conceived I guess was before the Greeks started their.

He's just incorrigible.

⚡The rollout of British Army badges redesigned for the accession of King Charles has been delayed over fears the new insignia could be made in China & risk allowing the Beijing authorities to insert tracking devices.

To him, the UK will be able to destroy China today because they emerged victorious before in the Opium Wars.
Greece can conquer all of Europe.

🇺🇦⚡- Huge anti-LGBT march held in Kiev, Ukraine. The march was organized by far-right groups 'Centuria' and 'Right-Sector'. A LGBT parade was supposed to happen at the Kiev subway, but it was cancelled as 'KievPride' event organizers couldn't guarantee participants safety from the anti-LGBT crowd.

5 prominent commanders have penned a condemnation against 'KievPride', asking the Rada to not allow such events during the war.

The commanders are Denis Nikitin ('Russian Voluntary Corps'), Maxim Zhorin ('Azov' 3rd Separate Brigade), Bogdan Khodakovy ('Revanche' Battalion), Christian Udarov and Ivan Philipchuk (Officers in the Ukrainian Armed Forces).

⚡Men are increasingly attempting to breach the western border every day, said Andriy Demchenko, a representative of Ukraine's State Border Guard Service.

“Unfortunately, these attempts continue, and we record such individuals every day. They should not be called draft dodgers; they are primarily border violators,” he stated.

He tried to reassure citizens by noting that some of the escapees are under 25 years old and therefore not subject to mobilization. However, he clarified that they are still prohibited from leaving the country due to Zelensky's mobilization orders.

All you typed here shows you don't understand the history you are talking about.

Japan had already built an industrialised westernized military even before WW1 & WW2 because it was the first country in Asia to adopt the western culture fully and having been forced to open its borders through a gun boat diplomacy by America, China was just coming out of Feudalism and had no sophisticated military unlike Capitalist Japan that had forged a relationship with the west and learned how to built military equipment what did you expect.

Even at that Japan still struggled to occupy China cause China is so vast and the stiff resistance they were recieving from Mao Zedong and his peasant revolutionary resistance fighters really made the occupation of China a tough one. Japan only succeeded in committing atrocities, killings and rape and in the end they were still routed out of China by these resistance fighters.

This your Korean war analysis is wrong. Till today Americans are still regretting China entered the Korean war. An option to Nuke China during the Korean war was on the table. This General Douglas MacArthur put much pressure on president Harry Truman to nuke China that was making America's foray into Korea difficult and Truman had to reconsider it by retiring him.

All of you thinking America would fight China over Taiwan are dreaming.

Yemen's Houthis said that the Verbena ship they attacked sank in the Gulf of Aden.

The rebels previously fired missiles at a cargo ship in the Gulf of Aden. A fire started on the ship. According to the US Central Command (CENTCOM), the bulk carrier M/V Verbena was sailing under the flag of Palau to Italy with a cargo of construction materials.

With the way the war of attrition is going, Ukraine will loose the war, but Russia will gain a guerrilla army at its doorstep.

A lot of Ukrainians will die, which will reinforce the severe hate of Ukrainians towards Russians and this will push the populace towards the West.

But let's see how this will play out though as I don't see Ukraine winning this war at all.

It was never about defeating Russia, it was about draining Russia's military and economic might, to the point that Russia will drop nukes on Ukraine's soil, making Russia the evil one.

This is the game plan, but on the other hand Russia has her plans mapped out: to drain Ukraine of his manpower and military capabilities that the west will have no option than to send manpower into Ukraine creating a death trap scenario for western populace who decide to fight against Russia in Ukraine.

There was no option to nuke China, the Chinese had a Pact with the Soviet union, nuking China would have put the Soviet union and the USA on a direct nuclear path
