thout the homeland propaganda machine's help. That has been proven by the number of Russian soldiers who legitimately had no idea what they were doing on the border.


If you believe 100% of those

Some of that may be true but I’m sure a lot of it is captured Russian soldiers who don’t exactly want to tel the ppl they have invaded “ohh yea we came here to kill you and your families, please don’t shoot me”

[SkyNews] Kosovo asks US for permanent military base and NATO membership

quote:

Kosovo has asked the US to establish a permanent military base in the country and speed up its integration into NATO after Russia's invasion of Ukraine, Kosovo's Defence Minister Armend Mehaj said.

The United States has already 635 soldiers in the Balkan country to maintain the fragile peace as part of a NATO peacekeeping mission.

Mr Mehaj said on his Facebook page: "Accelerating Kosovo's membership in NATO and having a permanent base of American forces is an immediate need to guarantee peace, security and stability in the Western Balkans."

Kosovo has joined other countries in introducing sanctions against Russia.

Mr Mehaj has said that his government was ready to offer help for any military operation to Ukraine, should that be asked for by Washington.

Kosovo's 2008 independence is recognised by more than 110 countries, mainly Western nations, but not by Serbia or its traditional ally Russia.

Four NATO members also refuse to recognise Kosovo's independence.

Kosovo is still not a United Nations member due to objections from Russia.

free thought has been demonized. The left are much closer to Putin than anyone else and that’s why they project that onto dissenting opinions to the right, again hence my belief the Putin is in decline narrative is projection.

People like Draconian Sanctions lack the ability for any sort introspection. You’re of course correct. Here’s a little snippet from a DNC rag proving how out of touch people like him really are:

quote:

A strong majority of adults in the United States believe President Joe Biden is mentally unfit to serve as commander in chief, according to a recent Washington Post/ABC News poll. The poll, which was released only days before the president is slated to give the State of the Union address, showed a majority believe Biden is unfit to serve as president while also revealing the lowest job approval rating (37 percent) from the Washington Post/ABC News poll since becoming president just over a year ago.

JFC. Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely. Conservatives demonizing liberals and liberals demonizing conservatives never realize they are just the foot soldiers and cannon fodder for the corporate power in this country.

No shite. You think it should go further left. As in you want that party to move further towards an authoritarian regime.

Like Putin’s.

The jUsT aSkInG qUeStIoNs grift re: Putin and Ukraine is so bad.

There is no justification for invading a sovereign nation. Putin’s feelings are hurt and his country has been outmaneuvered if his own region for 30 years. Take your L and move forward rather than murder women and children in a toddler rage.

[BBC News]Ukraine's military has just given an update on Sunday's fighting.

quote:

Writing on Facebook, the general staff of Ukraine's armed forces described Sunday as "a difficult time" for the military, saying Russian troops "continue shelling in almost all directions".

Latest reports suggest Russian troops have taken Berdyansk, a southern port, but earlier Ukraine said it had fought back an attack on the country's second biggest city, Kharkiv.
