#28  Thank you, gentlemen, for the nym explanation. I was a little too young at the time for such things, and never caught up.

#26  There really are two issues:

a. What steps can be taken to assist the Ukrainian people, both fleeing refugees and those left in contact with the agressors ?

b. What steps can be taken (permanent steps) to deal with Russians now and over the long-term ?

BTW, sitting down with the Russians in Vienna to discuss an "Obama 2.0 Iranian deal" or buying crude oil from the bastids fits none of the above.

#24  Zelensky wants us to save his bacon. Nope. Not our fire.
He is urging Miss Lindsey and other neocons in Washington to declare war on Russia. No fucking way. His problem is not our problem.
Posted by: No Fortunate Son   2022-03-06 14:15  

#23  "Zelensky is corrupt" is not an argument against US involvement. Neither is "Putin is a tyrant" an argument for.

I don't want the US involved, but I have my doubts that Putin will stop until there's a world war. He and his mouthpieces have been tossing around threats like they're confetti; he hasn't even bothered hiding his aggressive intents.

#22  For the record, in hindsight I'd probably be anti Vietnam War now too. It was the template for Iraq II and Afghanistan and it was a bad tape to keep playing back for our people's involvement.

But I'd probably not have been an anti-war hippie at the time. Older, wiser. Or something, anyway...

Posted by: Beavis   2022-03-06 13:51  

#19  Fortunate Son is a Creedence Clearwater Revival song. John Fogerty was a vehement anti-US involvement in Viet Nam figure. I suspect that's the provenance, though this guy seems to want us to be involved in this war by screeching about how we should not be involved in this war.

That's the impression I get, anyway. I could be wrong. It's been known to happen.

#18  No Fortunate Son, you are mistaking Russian agent eruptions for the beliefs of Rantburg regulars. Try going back into the archives a week or two to get a better baseline if you want your posts to be more effective.

Unless you like being mocked, of course, in which case please do carry on as you’ve been.

Separately, because I always wonder about such things: did you choose that nym because you have no sons, because your son(s) is struggling, or because you feel cheated by Life?

Posted by: M. Murcek   2022-03-06 13:29  

#16  Wait. A. Minute. Did you just turn 180 degrees there?

No. You're just so marinated in neocon bullshit and propaganda you can't recognize reality. You hear what you want to hear.

You think anyone criticizing the neocons' stupidity and warmongering must be pro-Putin. Wrong.

This is exactly what happened in 2003, except the region in question is none of our fucking business and this time we really can cause WWIII... if these assholes aren't stopped

#13  Zelensky didn't invade Russia,

So? Why is this any of our business? What interest do we have in that country that is worth risking WWIII over?

Putin's a nasty piece of work, a war criminal. So what. Why get involved and risk blowing ourselves up? For what?

#11  Yeah keep deluding yourselves. Like you did with all the COVID bullshit. You're just painting us into a corner the way they did with the vaccine that's actually worse than the disease.

Just like with COVID, when the truth destroys the official narrative, all the willing puppets creep forward and try to deny reality and shut down dissent with name-calling. "Muh Anti-vaxxer!" "Muh Russian troll!" "Muh Racist!"

#10  It's rather amusing how many russian trolls we have. I can picture them, huddled under bridges, snorting their bath salts and their dirty hands indignantly typing furiously on their Chromebooks as they pollute our threads and acting like monkey's flinging poo. Course, I imagine they do fling poo anyway. And at the end of the day they all line up to collect their bag of bread crusts and a packet of pencil shavings they call cigarettes along with a tiny bottle of bottom shelf 'vodka' that's more likely snake squeezings.

*Cracks the whip* Dance monkeys! DANCE!

#3  re #1: I understand completely. My 80 year old wife is also a Jew and is also hooked directly with the Rothschild Banking Cartel. Despite that advantage she still has to spend her time tutorong children so that she can afford to drive her 18 year old car on those extranvagant shopping trips she takes to buy things like groceries and medicines.

You might want to take advantage of some of those medicines yourself; those medicines that you can get from the Cenos ETs when they're taking a break from hunting down the Jews.

You might also want to take a break from typing; typing that greenish-brownish-yellowish drivel that tends to run down the front of your clothes after it has erupted from that sinful scar you refer to as your mouth.

I feel much better now, thank you.

#2  the banking cartel that has started most of Earth’s wars

I heard they took out the dinosaurs too. Mother*bleep*ers!
Posted by: SteveS   2022-03-06 10:17  

#1  Remember Ukraine’s Zelenskyy is an Israeli Jew which means he hooked directly with the Rothschild Banking Cartel. You know, the guys congress sold the USA central bank to on Dec 23, 1913. You know, the banking cartel that has started most of Earth’s wars since the battle of Waterloo in the early 1800’s. The guys that are responsible for the deaths of at least 130 million people since the start of WWI. That is the reason ET aliens won’t have anything to do with we humans. For example the Cenos ETs from Proxima b have found a way to cure nearly all diseases.

I am glad Putin got rid of Zelenskyy. Putin also kicked the Rothschilds out of Russia unlike our corrupt Uncle Sam that welcomed them into our country!
