The USA has been all over Ukraine for decades, funneling billions to promote regime change.

Unfortunately such a way shows how currently the infrastructures in US are collapsing but also its social hierarchy is in the cross paths of break up.
Vjosa Osmani Putin's illegal land grab of territory based on sham "referendums"& use of force is an utter violation of intl' law.
Russia & proxies are the biggest threat to peace and must be stopped & further sanctioned Kosovo & democratic allies will always #StandWithUkraine!
Constant war and threat of war is the American way
How else can the obscene military budget be justified?

The reason Ukrainians in Western Ukraine hate Russians/Russia, Ethnic Russians.
Is because there was a campaign of hatred agaisnt the Russians during the 90s in their institutions. This push and hatred agaisnt Russia/Russians.

When you said I hadn't answered a question I showed you exactly where I had.
I asked whose soil the Russian troops were on February 22, 2022. You answered they invaded on the 24th. Not once have you actually said, even now, that the Russian troops were on Russian soil on February 22, 2022. I accepted your half-hearted explanation, but you did NOT directly answer the question.
And now this attempt to twist the conversation into who insulted whom serves no purpose other than to change the topic.
You have made repeated childish insults about your invisible TV midget.
The media is not imaginary, nor is it invisible. You are stating the exact same narrative that the media is pushing. That is not an insult; it is an observation.
You may not like the way I present the media, but I consider it accurate.
Militaries do not plan then move the troops armour and supplies for a major invasion 2 days .
They can, and they have before. That is a lack of understanding about how the military operates.
Look up "contingency plan."

the ethnic cleansing during and after WW2 and the general history of mistreatment
When you don't want to recognise reality, then blame the Americans.
Ukrainian dislike and mistrust of Russia was to do with their meddling, and memories of Russian behaviour in the past
not least the Holodomor genocide, the ethnic cleansing during and after WW2 and the general history of mistreatment. Ukrainians wanted independence after the Soviet Union failed. Like all the

You lack history again.
Belarus is closely allied with Russia, so it is reasonable to believe the troops were there at the pleasure of the Belarus government.
Another inconsistency lies in the state of the Russian military. We are told every day that the Russians are impotent, being trounced at every turn by the Ukrainian military.
So what changed this year
Russia recognizes DPR, LPR within areas under their authorities’ control — diplomat
On February 21, Russian President Vladimir Putin announced the recognition of DPR and LPR sovereignty
I think the whole idea was, is, and has been to trigger Putin into invading and then turn the world, including the Russian people themselves, against him. I know of only one reason doing so would be so damn important to the West: to put in a USA-friendly puppet that will reinstate the OPEC dollar-oil peg.

No , but we should also ask is this what Russia wants ?
So you are OK with Russia wiping out Britain as long as it's clearly "their fault"?
One nuclear warhead would make Britain uninhabitable for thousands of years and destroy 90% of the country. That includes Scotland, Ireland, and Wales.
Just one missile = 100% casualties.
TheRedneck
There is no single nuclear warhead that could do that.
Nuclear weapons are horrifc and should never be used but let's stay out of the realms of sci-fi.
