Yet Sawang gullibly swallows it hook, line and sinker. So pathetically predictable.Quote:

Yet his favorite Russian shill, Scott Ritter, is a convicted sex offender who served time in prison. What a hypocrite.Quote:

No, the salient point here is that now, just a few months later, he is a Russian POW! OMG.
According to the American Buddhist Net?Quote:

And Ritters victim was underage.
He has been captured in Azovstol, while trying to escape pickle. Deal with it. I'm sure there are some pretty frantic diplomatic negotiations happening behind the scenes.
Disgusting discourse here as it is around the world. Predictable however. When it comes to war been like this since Cain killed his brother.
They said the Canadian sniper "Wali" was killed a few days after he got there too. Then he posted a video of himself very much alive, and still posts often.Quote:

The sad fact is Putins forces will quite possibly end up with some stolen Ukrainian territory so they can exploit energy reserves there and may manage to permanently occupy Odessa. The good fact is that there is a good possiblity they will enter stagflation. The chances of financing their industries in the short or long term will probably be next to impossible. Their artificially inflated ruble cannot be supported by the Russian bank forever as it slowly runs out of foreign reserves. Their army will be a depleted force with most of its credibility lost throughout the world. As the europeans finally wean themselves off of Russian oil and gas will damage a large part of their economy. The worst for the Russians is yet to come. Russian flagged ships increasingly being embargoed together with lack of insurance from Lloyds will mean it will have to be underwritten from the govts dwindling reserves if they are to sail to the few ports in the world they will be able to dock at.. The long term effects of Russia being isolated from over $40 trillion of the worlds economy will see them slowly sink into a North Korean type of irrelevance in the world and many Russians will suffer, at least the Russians that cannot follow the Russian brain drain to the west, which has already started. Russian GDP is estimated to fall by 11.4% in '22 (world bank) and inflation estimates range between 7.8% to 30%. Russia is predicted to enter a recession for at least 2 years. Putin has totally misread the west. He will gamble that post war sanctions will be lifted I expect he will be mistaken. The west did not sanction him enough after Crimea due to an insipid President Obama.
Sadly a collective economic giant like the E.U. still needs the USA to lead and this is unlikely to change for at least the next 10 years. Whilst the USA cops a fair bit of criticism and at times rightly so, some of Europe and many other places like Taiwan would now be Russian or Chinese territory. Anybody that thinks the Chinese and Russians would be contained or constrained by trade alone from the west with an economically and militarily weakened USA lives in cuckoo land.
How exactly does this grubby gossip prove that Putin is winning the war? Your posts really are getting near the bottom of the barrel, and the position you have taken on this subject is increasingly shaky. Backspin normally deals in gossip, but there is a Canadian involved so he’s gone quiet.Quote:

Turns out he was right on this one- I recall him mentioning some days ago there were some senior Nato types alleged to be holed up in Azovstal.Quote:

In your eyes, dear boy, by providing you with the news and analysis you do not want to hear- nothing more, nothing less. But as I have repeatedly pointed out, my posts are not really aimed at the Boneheads.Quote:

In case it has got lost in all the dross, Ritters excellent analysis again-

Are you going to post this same shit all over the forum? Desperate much?
You do insist on spamming every thread that offers an alternative to the 'approved discourse' of your beloved Biden administration snubs, so if something is worth repeating, I am well entitled to do so. Not like you repeat yourself much now, e'hhh? :spam:
He also said Wali the sniper was dead.Quote:

Neither you nor I know it to be true. I'll believe it when they parade him in front of the cameras. Which, if true, they will.
I agree that you are entitled to be stupid. Just as those who oppose your views are entitled to look behind your faux discourse.Quote:

The fact that you think Musk will have an impact on twitter is an irelevance. Twitter is not taken seriously by anyone with true perceptions of any depth. It is a puddle of very shallow gossip, not unlike your own opinions.
Please change your username to SoCal, thereby making it easier for your critics to point and snigger.
Bullshit. The sources I post on here are diverse and wide-ranging, unlike yours.Quote:

One thing it is good at is monitoring real time events on the ground. For example, I knew about the missile strike that hit the train station a month back before it was in the news.Quote:
