War in Ukraine

[Stirlingsays]

So funny how those who claim to be the biggest self-proclaimed ‘patriots’ rush to defend this country’s biggest enemy and security threat.

Funny kind of patriotism.

Being neutral isn't defending anyone. I'm interested in what's in Britain's best self interest....which isn't unwinnable and unaffordable wars.

Anyway, being a patriot isn't really anything you understand beyond its demonisation.

‘Neutral’. Ha. Not sure capitulating to Putin is in Britain’s best self interest, nor the rest of Europe’s. And certainly not Ukraine’s. But each to their own.

I quite like this country. You seem to dislike a lot about it. Your patriotism is as plastic as my children’s beakers.

Well, I hear what you say but I'm just not seeing the wisdom of what's being suggested on the Ukraine situation.

Plastic beakers?

I'm for 'hot bird' nationalism.....Huey Lewis nationalism.....I never thought of myself as a plastic beaker nationalist....novel.

But still somehow not as plastic as the beer "glasses" they give you at the cricket, rugby and festivals.

Or maybe he’s just a Russian appeaser and not a grown up whatsoever.

I am going to take this opportunity to give a massive eye roll 🙄

You do that. It’s quite clear from your posts on here which side you’re on.

Yeah, because being against the Iraq war meant you were on Saddam Hussain's side...

All that spouting of Saddam Hussain talking points...

Talk about low hanging fruit.

Yes the side of peace and saving lives.

I don't know about you Eagle but I'm still waiting for that big Putin cheque to turn up.

Seems like that commie fascist barstard is a cheapskate.

Maybe he can pay us in good looking slavic women of questionable morality......it would surely be better than the present set of female wildebeests currently roaming these Wisbech plains.

Which there would have been for the last 3 years if Russia hadn’t y’know, illegally invaded. Or at any point in the last 3 years if Russia had just withdrawn their troops from the country they were in, y’know, illegally invading.

Maybe a few bottles of Russians finest Vodka might turn up on the doorstep instead with a fww Russian women holding them 😅

You still are not getting it.

Whatever the reasons for the war I just want peace and lives saved at this point. I don't want an escalated WW3.

As a female, I do find that a better alternative - but with a few Russian men holding them (preferably young and fit)....

Now that's a honeypot I can really get behind.....and on top of.

Extremely noble. I just don’t seem to recall you being such a vocal champion of a peace deal on here until your Orange hero reentered the White House and there was an opportunity to make him out as a hero for giving Putin everything he set out to achieve.

'Oh Viktor.....with these Smirnoffs you are truly spoiling us.

Is that a copy of 'War and Peace' in your pocket or are you just pleased to see me'.

I have always wanted peace. Do you think I just sit here getting off on people getting their homes blown up or soldiers / citizens needlessly dieing for a preventable war?

I have in the past criticized and still do why the war started in the first place. And how it could have ended years ago.

Trump is doing what he said all through his campaign so it's not news his actions.

First thing Trump did when he assumed office in 2016 was to de-escalate North Korea. This time he got a cease fire in the middle east and is about to bring an end to the Ukraine / Russia war. If anyone deserves a nobel peace prize it's the current President.

Yep, Ukraine aren't going to be made to make peace with Russia.

The only difference on offer for them is the size of the cheques coming down the pipe to fight it.....unless maybe they sign away another part of their future with that mineral deal.

If they want to carry on the current irrational strategy it is their right to do so.

I honestly don't really get our current strategy....it's just a straight up denial of reality....but hey.

If we send troops I'll support the troops, even if I think it's completely nuts....I mean everything we do nowadays is just like an old fruit 'n' nut case advert.
