Russia-Ukraine War - News and Developments PART 2

Well, I dont have a Zimbabwe passport. Many Israelis however do have EU citizenship or are entitled to one. Of course you can convince yourself you have a connection to a land, just disregard the last 2,000 years or 1,000 years. I mean so many jews lived in Poland and Ukraine for 1,000 years and they feel nothing for this land? I mean thats disgraceful. Or maybe its the way you were treated there, I dont know.
I am sure he believes it happened. he's just trying to make you angry. But you aren't the only victims of WW2, Russians, Ukranians, Gypsies, maybe serbs, and people forget the germans also were comparable victims in that conflict. 12 million germans were ethnically cleansed, from Eastern Europe, their land stolen. 7 million germans killed.
I feel very bad for the gypsies, how did they even survive? a huge % of them were killed. They should have a country as well. It seems very unfair they dont get a country.

Just shows how inclusive Ukraine is. They are allowed to practice their rituals and so they should. This is some sort of nordic thing with he during boat. Its not illegal to glorify Nordic culture, they clearly feel a connection to that and so they should burn some bonfires if it makes them happy.

Ukraine forefathers came from the north. Yes that’s fire rituals they practice. That’s not racism or something Nazi. in Germany they make “osterfeuer”. The woods are stacked up in high hills then burned down. I multiple times participated such events.

Well russian “news” has been systemically wrong and blatantly caught lying over and over. To an extent incomparable to western news on ukraine.
How is the 3 day special operation going Hassan?
happy sailing along on the Moskva with your fellow propaganda bots?

begging? Didn’t the Pakistani FM, Finance Minister , and Bajwa all visit the US in the same 90 day window and FM is back. All for a measly relief not even $2bn from the IMF . Everybody begs,Zelensky is begging for a higher amount. Btw, Pakistan FM figured out a way to make his way back to the US now again so he could celebrate Christmas in NYC apparently

Talk is cheap. Over 150,000 Ukrainian and their allied mercenary forces were killed, and here you're citing one old naval ship. The Bakhmut and Marinka meat grinder is a clear testament to the damage that the Russians are inflicting on the Ukrainians and their allied mercenary forces from the queer-loving West.

"An old naval ship",yeah basically the Black sea fleet's flagship boy.
This is a real meat grinder boy. It is known Russians have no value of life sending cannon fodders in banzai wave attacks.

Your knowledge of global developments is skewed. USSR invaded Afghanistan in 1979 and US supported the Mujahideen movement to defeat USSR in Afghanistan. Osama Bin Laden was one of the mujahids and founded Al-Qaeda Network in 1988 with people loyal to him. Osama was of the view that US is an imperialistic power and aimed to counter it by plotting attacks on American troops and embassies in different countries. These morons had no sense of American bilateral relationship with different countries and killed many innocent people including the director of The Message movie. Al-Qaeda Network was able to find recruits in US and convinced them to plant a bomb inside the World Trade Center in 1993 -- The ultimate plan was to destroy the World Trade Center and it was realized in 2001. US invaded Afghanistan to dismantle Al-Qaeda Network in connection to 9/11 in a move identified as the War On Terror and this mission was sanctioned by United Nations Resolution 1368.
Since US was on bad terms with Iraq, Bush administration felt motivated to close the chapter of Saddam regime and reboot Iraqi political system. War On Terror emboldened Bush administration to take this step. Reasons behind US invasion of Iraq are captured from different perspectives in following study:
The Reasons Behind U.S. Invasion of Iraq
This study gives detail information about American invasion of Iraq in 2003 and explains U.S. decision to invade Iraq from different analytic perspect…
Realism at the individual level, state level and systemic level is a suitable theory to analyse this case. As already stated above, realism sees the international system as an anarchic system and Iraq was a threat to world peace. U.S. would be able to prevent future threats that may come from Iraq. Iraq posed a security threat to the U.S. and the only way to eliminate this threat was to overthrow the Saddam Hussein Baathist regime. In other words, realists agree that the Iraq war was necessary to bring peace globally. George W. Bush is a rational leader who believes that Saddam could not be deterred without going to war.
Liberal theory explained the Iraq war from three levels of analysis. Individual level sees Saddam Hussein as a dictator who was using force against his own people: State level, the Iraqi government had an authoritarian regime under leads of Saddam Hussein. The transition was necessary in Iraq to replace the authoritarian regime with democracy that would bring peace to the Middle East region; International level, Iraq was not responding to U.N. Security Council resolutions. This was promoting collective action by international community according to Liberals. On this case, there was no proof from the U.N. Security Council for the presence of weapons of mass destruction. So the international community did not respond to it with action. Marxism has a completely different way among international relations theory, which rejects the realist theory and liberal theory.
Marxist perspective analyses the war on terror from an economic viewpoint. Iraq War was based on competition over oil resources that Iraq holds. As a capitalist state, US needs to control oil resources to maintain its own hegemony. The main reason behind US decision to go to war in Iraq is not to remove weapons of mass destruction or bring democracy –in light of the current uncertainty and civil war in Iraq. This war was all about to serve Western economic interests. In other words, this war was a combination of many reasons that led US to choose coercive diplomacy towards Iraq.
The decision taken by George W. Bush was beneficial for the US both nationally and internationally; the result of war was serving US national interest by gaining control of oil resources. Moreover, the US now has bases in Iraq and political relations with the new government headed by Nuri al-Maliki. So, this war served US selfinterest. As a rational actor, George W. Bush calculated the costs and benefits successfully to meet America’s needs. Bush and its own administration had a great reputation responding to the 9/11 attacks by invading Iraq. Bush’s calculation was successful as an individual. Realist theory at the individual level is the best theory for analysing the US decision to invade Iraq. Realism considers national interest, rational decision taken by individuals. Realism simply asks, if a state is under threat as an individual who can response with military force?
Saddam Hussein was a troublemaker as well. Have you forgotten? Iraq under Saddam invaded Iran in 1980, and Kuwait in 1990. US-led forces liberated Kuwait from Iraq in 1991.
Iran also like to assert itself on other countries. Causes of the Iran - Iraq War are well-explained in following study:

Learn to be fair in your criticism. Global Order is NOT made up of "saints."
