Why do you pretend to give a fuck?The point for retarded 6ix is that the Russians are awful people who have repeatedly threatened to drop nukes on the US, which has caused the US to waste more than $10 trillion on nukes in order to convince the awful Russians to NOT proceed with their evil plans. Between 1940 and 1996, the U.S. spent at least $10.1 trillion in present-day terms on nuclear weapons development.

Quote:Originally posted by second: Russian President Vladimir Putin declined to use his Victory Day address to make any significant rhetorical changes and reiterated existing narratives, preparing for a protracted war and framing Russia as successfully resisting the entire West.
Quote: Putin stated in his annual address marking the Soviet victory over Nazi Germany on May 9 that “a real war has been unleashed against Russia” and that Russia has repelled [USA-sponsored and CIA-enabled] international terrorism
Quote: and will continue to “defend” residents in Donbas.
Quote: Putin has previously claimed the West is waging a global “war” against Russia.”
Quote: Putin has previously referred to the Russian military campaign in Ukraine as /a ”war” but this rhetoric, whether an intentional acknowledgement of the scale of the fighting or not, has not corresponded with any changes in the Kremlin’s approach to the “special military operation.”
Quote: Putin similarly declined to use recent notable events such as his annual New Year’s Eve address or his February 2023 address to the Federal Assembly to offer any concrete vision on how to reverse the Russian military’s setbacks in Ukraine or reframe the war.
Quote: Putin has instead used these events to reinforce long-standing rhetorical lines aimed at preparing the Russian public for a protracted war in Ukraine by evoking the memory of World War Two without calling on Russian society to support full mobilization.
Quote: Putin additionally attempted to use Victory Day celebrations to rally Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) partners, many of which have sought to reduce their reliance on the Kremlin since February 2022. Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan,
Quote: Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko,
Quote:Kazakh President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev,
Quote: Kyrgyz President Sadyr Japarov, Tajik President Emomali Rahmon, Turkmen President Serdar Berdimuhamedov, and Uzbek President Shavkat Mirziyoyev joined Putin at the Moscow Victory Day parade in Red Square.
Quote: Putin emphasized the importance of CIS leaders attending the event and repeated boilerplate Kremlin rhetoric that Russia is pursuing a multi-polar world order.
Quote: Putin’s latest efforts to rally CIS countries was muted by the reluctance of several Central Asian leaders initially expressed towards attending the Victory Day event, and Lukashenko did not join the rest of the leaders at an earlier wreath laying ceremony. Lukashenko also did not deliver his traditional Victory Day address in Minsk, Belarus, although it is not immediately clear why.
Quote: Other non-Western states have largely rebuffed the Kremlin’s attempts to coalesce a potential anti-Western coalition, most notably China through its increasing rhetorical distancing from Russia.
Quote: ISW
Quote: has previously assessed that the degradation of Russian military power in Ukraine has likely made this Russian effort even less attractive to other states.
Quote: The Victory Day events showcased far less military equipment than usual (including only a single World War Two–era T-34/85 and no modern tanks, which Russia badly needs in Ukraine) and demonstrated the further degradation of the Russian military, despite the Kremlin’s attempts in previous weeks to downplay Victory Day by downsizing parades and outright canceling events.

Quote:Originally posted by second: Quote:Originally posted by SIGNYM: As far as I can tell Putin spoke plain truth, which will be embraced by all nations not currently under Washington's thumb and all leaders not in Washington's pocket.Compare life in Russia vs Poland. Putin has done poorly compared to the series of different leaders in Poland since 1999, but Putin tries to compensate for his past inadequacies by invading Ukraine in the present. Putin's Ukrainian plans won't work any better than his more peaceful plans that didn't involve an invasion of a European country. Russia's future, where Polish citizens pull even further ahead of Russians will prove how inadequate Putin was as a leader. https://www.google.com/search?q=compare+gdp+russia+poland The Joss Whedon script for Serenity, where Wash lives, is Serenity-190pages.pdf at https://www.mediafire.com/folder/1uwh75oa407q8/Firefly

Quote:Originally posted by SIGNYM: Quote:Originally posted by second: Russian President Vladimir Putin declined to use his Victory Day address to make any significant rhetorical changes and reiterated existing narratives, preparing for a protracted war and framing Russia as successfully resisting the entire West. Which is true. All you have to do is read THUGR's and SECOND's rabid dreams of toppling Putin or breaking up Russia, or their denigration of the Russian people and culture, to know they've been recruited in the elites' never-ending quest to destroy Russia Quote: Putin stated in his annual address marking the Soviet victory over Nazi Germany on May 9 that “a real war has been unleashed against Russia” and that Russia has repelled [USA-sponsored and CIA-enabled] international terrorism In Chechnya, Syria, Ukraine, and Russia proper He also equated modern-day western elites with Nazis, which (listening to "Jungle" Josep Borrell and Ursula van der Crazy) I find an entirely apt comparison. Quote: and will continue to “defend” residents in Donbas. Who have been subject to continuous shelling of civilian areas since 2014 Quote: Putin has previously claimed the West is waging a global “war” against Russia.” by expanding NATO to Russia's borders (breaking earlier promises) and placing missiles within a few minutes' flight time of Moscow, fomenting "color revolutions" and invasions along Russia's entire border including Finland, Sweden, Georgia, Chechnya, (The former) Yugoslavia, Ukraine, Poland, Belarus, Kazakhstan etc (pretty much the way the west has treated most of the world) Quote: Putin has previously referred to the Russian military campaign in Ukraine as /a ”war” but this rhetoric, whether an intentional acknowledgement of the scale of the fighting or not, has not corresponded with any changes in the Kremlin’s approach to the “special military operation.”Which is a war of attrition. If Russia were to unleash full-scale war against Ukraine, Kiev, Lvov, Kharkov, and Odessa would be no more. Quote: Putin similarly declined to use recent notable events such as his annual New Year’s Eve address or his February 2023 address to the Federal Assembly to offer any concrete vision on how to reverse the Russian military’s setbacks in Ukraine or reframe the war. Setbacks? I don't include capturing 20pct of Ukraine's territory as a "setback", or demilitarizing both Ukraine and western arsenals as a failure (for them. For us, yes) Quote: Putin has instead used these events to reinforce long-standing rhetorical lines aimed at preparing the Russian public for a protracted war in Ukraine by evoking the memory of World War Two without calling on Russian society to support full mobilization. Bc they don't fight "blitzkreig" wars. Quote: Putin additionally attempted to use Victory Day celebrations to rally Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) partners, many of which have sought to reduce their reliance on the Kremlin since February 2022. Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan, undr severe ecnomic pressure form the EU Quote: Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko, who is embarking on full military and economic integration with Russia Quote:Kazakh President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev, Who remains closely allied with Russia Quote: Kyrgyz President Sadyr Japarov, Tajik President Emomali Rahmon, Turkmen President Serdar Berdimuhamedov, and Uzbek President Shavkat Mirziyoyev joined Putin at the Moscow Victory Day parade in Red Square. All Russia's partners Quote: Putin emphasized the importance of CIS leaders attending the event and repeated boilerplate Kremlin rhetoric that Russia is pursuing a multi-polar world order. which happens to be true. Russia is not attempting to dominate the globe, like the USA is, but there are plenty of nations attempting to wriggle out from under the USA's oppressive fat ass Quote: Putin’s latest efforts to rally CIS countries was muted by the reluctance of several Central Asian leaders initially expressed towards attending the Victory Day event, and Lukashenko did not join the rest of the leaders at an earlier wreath laying ceremony. Lukashenko also did not deliver his traditional Victory Day address in Minsk, Belarus, although it is not immediately clear why. It certainly has nothing to do with Bearus backing out of military and economic inegration with Russia. Did you knw that Belarus' objection to Russian econmic system is bc Belarus has NEVER let go of its Soviet style economy? They think Russia's economy is too western! Quote: Other non-Western states have largely rebuffed the Kremlin’s attempts to coalesce a potential anti-Western coalition, most notably China through its increasing rhetorical distancing from Russia. China's statements and policies have remained the same. India, Saudi Arabia, Brazil, and a host of other nations are tilting to Russia WTF are they talking about? And the USA attempting to force secondary sanctions on China, India, South Africa, and other regional powers will simply distance them from the USA further, if not now then at the earliest oppty Quote: ISW The Nuland/Kagan neocon family project, guaranteed to spew neocon nonsense and as disoriented as Kiev Quote: has previously assessed that the degradation of Russian military power in Ukraine has likely made this Russian effort even less attractive to other states. In their dreams! Quote: The Victory Day events showcased far less military equipment than usual (including only a single World War Two–era T-34/85 and no modern tanks, which Russia badly needs in Ukraine) and demonstrated the further degradation of the Russian military, despite the Kremlin’s attempts in previous weeks to downplay Victory Day by downsizing parades and outright canceling events. As a result of terrorist threats from Kiev's security state? As far as I can tell Putin spoke plain truth, which will be embraced by all nations not currently under Washington's thumb and all leaders not in Washington's pocket. ----------- "It may be dangerous to be America's enemy, but to be America's friend is fatal." - Henry Kissinger

Russia had 21 months to stomp all over Poland before Germany stomped all over Russia. To the Polish, it seemed that the Germans were paying back the Russians.
