Re: The War in Ukraine
It looks very much like it is Biden who supports Putin. Why else would he not want to make Putin mad? Why else would he not be doing everything possible to support Ukraine? https://conservativebrief.com/biden-refused-61073/Comment

Re: The War in Ukraine
Squatters occupy Russian oligarch Oleg Deripaska's London mansion
Squatters have occupied the London mansion suspected of belonging to Russian billionaire Oleg Deripaska — who was placed on Britain's sanctions list last week — unfurling a Ukrainian flag and a banner saying, "This property has been liberated."
Police said they were called in the early hours of Monday after it was reported that the squatters had entered the multimillion-pound mansion in Belgrave Square, in an upmarket area of the British capital that is home to numerous foreign embassies.
"By occupying this mansion, we want to show solidarity with the people of Ukraine, but also the people of Russia who never agreed to this madness," said a statement from the squatters, who described themselves as anarchists.
"You occupy Ukraine, we occupy you."
A number of people gained entry and hung banners from upstairs windows, police said in a statement. Police did not say who reported the incident.
Last Thursday, Britain froze the assets of Deripaska, one of a number of Russian oligarchs targeted in the wake of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, which the Kremlin has called a "special military operation."
Deripaska, who has stakes in En+ Group, a major extractives and energy company that owns UC Rusal, one of the world's major aluminum producers, is worth an estimated 2 billion pounds and has a multimillion-pound property portfolio in Britain, the British government said at the time.
Putin associate
Britain says Deripaska is closely associated with the government of Russia and Russian President Vladimir Putin.
London High Court documents from 2007 identified Deripaska as the beneficial owner of the Belgrave Square mansion. A judge in a court case the year before said the property and another house he owned outside the capital were then worth about 40 million pounds ($66.5 million Cdn).
Representatives of Deripaska did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Shortly before the sanctions were imposed, Deripaska said peace was needed as soon as possible in Ukraine and warned that Russia would be different after the conflict.
In their statement, the squatters said the mansion would "serve as a centre for refugee support" and that other properties would also be targeted.
Britain has sanctioned around 20 Russian oligarchs, including Roman Abramovich and Alisher Usmanov, freezing their properties across London and banning them from coming to Britain.Comment

Re: The War in Ukraine
A quick look at history:
WWI started in 1914. The US president was Woodrow Wilson - Democrat.
WWII started in 1939. The US President was Franklin D. Roosevelt - Democrat.
The Korean War started in 1950. The US President was Harry S Truman - Democrat.
War in Ukraine threatens to start WWIII. The US President is Joe Biden - Democrat.
Anyone else see a trend here?Comment

Re: The War in Ukraine
What? Now you are pushing us into war with Russia?
It's not balls that gets into wars ( or finishing them )
But how it is handled and the out come of the war.
Lately our leaders have backed down and basically ran away.
Funny thing is ... this shit wouldn't be going on if Trump was in office.. world leaders have said so.

Re: The War in Ukraine
You certainly haven't read your history. In 1914 nobody in the world cared about the US in a military sense.
In 1914 the United States Army comprised 98,000 men, of whom some 45,000 were stationed overseas. The regular army was backed up by the 27,000 troops in the National Guard.
In comparison the German army
The German Army in 1914 comprised 25 corps (700,000 men). Within a week of mobilization some 3.8 million men were under arms.
Even at the begining of WW2 the US military was relitively small
