I guess you could say the same about any country. It’s not really about China, it’s about Xi Jinping. It’s not really about North Korea, it’s about Kim Jung-un, it’s not really about Iran, it’s about Ali Khamenei.

Yes, I firmly agree with you that they have the right to self determination. But actively asking to join an organisation that is funded by and large by the enemies of Russia is going to provoke a response. Ukraine is in the unfortunate position where it’s simply impossible to get as far away from Russia as humanly possible. They might have swung from being Leftie Commies to full blown Right Wingers but their geological location is obviously unmovable. Sweden and Finland made the wise choice to remain outside of NATO for this very reason. Don’t poke the Bear. It was a tactic that up til now has served them well. Now Finland and Sweden are spooked. If they join NATO now then I fear WW3 is inevitable. The US is literally playing the board game Risk and will have Russia surrounded. A cornered animal is dangerous as it is unpredictable.
-
Right. And I said that Russia is being put in an ever encroaching choke hold by NATO, aka the US. Surround any world power in such a way and they’d retaliate in much the same way.
-
It’s not about how large Russia’s territory is and predominantly about the ever encroachment of NATO, aka the USA on Russia’s doorstep. The US would simply not stand for the reverse happening, full stop. Yet again Cuba being a case in point.

It’s at the end of that table I expect to find Marks answer to if he’s pro-Russian or not. Oh wait a minute, is that him under it right between Putins knees?🤣
-
And yet again I’m not referring to the current Ukrainian conflict. So taking what’s happening in the Ukraine out of the picture are you Pro-Russia or not Mark? Your previous post all but spelled it out. So come on, be a man and stop hiding behind double speak.
-
Ok, and I was on about the far Left. You can’t answer a single one of points so you just call me a troll instead. 🤣 You’re not very good at this are you Mark? Anyway. Since we’re so clearly talking about the Far Right and the Far Left you’re now in a position to show you’re neither and answer the question. Are you Pro-Russia Mark? This will be the third time I’ve asked you now. If you can’t or won’t answer directly then your silence speaks the volumes you refuse to.

1, Not everything’s in black and white. Apart from your appraisal of what the Right believe in when it comes to Brexit, Covid Vaccinations and Russia. Ok, that makes sense. 2, Well dodged Mark. 🙄 You’d make Steptoe proud. To claim that the Right is pro-brexit is to insinuate the Left is pro-EU. To claim that the Right is anti-vax is to insinuate the Left is pro-covid vaccine. To claim that the Right is anti-Russian would indicate you believe the Left is pro-Russian. Are you Pro-Russian Mark? I’m not taking about the Ukrainian conflict. Are you pro-Russian? 3, So why single out the Right Wing Media only? Your post certainly indicated that it was a Right Wing problem and not a MSM problem right across the spectrum.
-
Fixed your typo for you.
-
Making up the bits that don’t suit me? 🤣 You just make it up as you go along. It stands to reason that the left, the very polar opposite of the right will support the opposite of what you claim the right support. So in your own words the Right is Anti-Russian. In light of what Russia is doing in Ukraine do you somehow find the Anti-Russian stance wrong? Are you pro-Russian? You claim the Right is in the thrall of the Right Wing Media yet seem delusionaly unaware that the exact thing is happening on the left.
-
So the left are pro-EU, pro-covid vaxx and Pro-Russia? 🤷♂️😳😆 Looks like you include yourself in getting mugged off by their own computers.
-
What qualifies you to be correct and he wrong? Perhaps the lines are more blurred than either of you think and there is both elements of being right and mislead on both sides?

I can’t say I’ve noticed the brakes being over worked. The brakes on the Jeep are certainly up to the task of pulling up with 3.5t on the back, yet to notice any cooked brake smell. In three years of ownership I had to change the rear disks, shoes and pads for the first time this January. Not bad considering the work it does. Ive yet to feel I don’t have the control of a manual. If I wanted I could use the manual paddles but have never even considered this. I think modern 4x4 autos are a different breed.
-
Ive often got 3-3.5t on the back of my 2014 Grand Cherokee. Never had an issue Towing with it. If on a muddy track I just drop it into 4low and crawl out. Hills have yet to be a problem in the Auto.
-
Its arrived safe and sound after a 9 hour drive home. Very good condition for its age.
-
Now we're talking. More of a Malbec man myself.
-
Very good Pedo, you're clearly pleased with yourself.
-
Ive a magnetic slider on my laptop Pedo, so no, you can keep your 'joke' to yourself. But Ive a feeling you're so happy with it you cant help but post it anyway. Pedo the pedantic, has a certain ring to it and certainly suits you.
-
Im gonna guess Cheese and Biscuits.

You must be one of these "Internationally respected voice of geopolitics" Cropper was referring to.....
-
Activates the motion sensing lasers in the suspicious looking cameras. 😁
-
I find it hard to believe that the Generals where not briefed prior to this meeting. I’d be inclined to believe this is just a show for the cameras. And yes the Generals might look awkward, they have the whole world watching their every twitch and eye blink and having so called experts then “read” their responses like some old lady reading tea leaves. Others have commented on the distance between himself and the Generals as if he was scared of them harming him in some way. If that was the case then the same could be said when he met the French Granny Shagger the other week.
-
For sure. But then you post your usual limp wristed whining and it kills the mood.
-
Well then, since you work full time why is your opinion any more valid than someone else’s since you’ve made it clear only those that are recognised experts in geo politics should be allowed to voice an opinion. I don’t care if you “rear up” or not. You like to shoot others down in flames so im sure you can handle a rebuttal. Mick bit, that’s good enough for me.

Knew someone would bite and no surprises it was you.
