blathin: Yep, brave young men (and now women) signing up to be cannon fodder has always saddened me, and once I began to inform myself it saddens me even more...

What I don't understand is how we, a mere 7 billion people, members of a very very unique and special species, who're on a small lump of rock, circling relentlessy around a star, completely isolated and alone in the universe, can always be at each others' throats. and trying to kill each other fighting over things.....it's truly saddening to see...

and it's soul destroying to see a small group of elites using their fellow human beings lives to win a war that won't benefit anyone other than the elite.albiet in the short term because this absolutely will catch up with us as a species...

I often wish there were other species on neighbouring planets .it might give us acommon enemy and give us a reason to work together instead fo against each other..

If women were the leading power on this planet and men were subject to our believes etc...you can be sure we'd be better evolved by nnow and wouldnt still be carrying on like savages...war is primarily down to the male ego and wanting the control...over everything...and the male ego is primarily fuelled by fear..

The biggest idiots are the ones risking their lives starting/fighting a war their leaders caused. Why risk your live for some idiot who is save in his palace or bunker, and who don't give a damn if you'll survive? You really must be stupid.

I guess you could call it misguided patriotism or similar, most are in these armies due not having no other choices and poverty I believe..sigh

laugh laugh laugh Oh LeahLeah absolutely everyone knows the BBC and all other mainstream news outlets in the west are 100% propoganda machines for whatever narrative the government wants and in this case it's that Putin is a dictator.

he actually isn't, he raized the Ukrainian miilitary airbases two days ago to put a stop to the Nato expansion and more importantly the 8 years of relentless bombing Kiev (Ukranian government) have been doing to the Dombass region. 1000's of innocent civilians have been murdered and the west hasn't lifted a single finger about it.

No offence intended here but you clearly haven't got a clue what's going on in and are just regurgitating what you've heard someone else say...Are you really so gullible, that you would hear just one side of the story and completely accept it as being the absolutely truth?

blathin: Again, you are only regurgitating what you've heard someone else has said and repeating it like a parrot...

It's actually Facebook who's been restricting information, as has your government, your media and your own country's journalists.

You really shouldn't be so gullible Leah, your government is making a fool of you and the rest of your country's men and women who don't take the time to find out what this is really all about and what the other side's story is....
And i think you are acting like an authority when you are the one regugitating what someone else has said. I do know enough about Putin and just because i don't agree with you and what you are regurdiating doesn't mean i am gullible. I would say you are gullible to believe whatever comes out of Putins mouth. Did you believe him when he was saying he wasn't going to invade Ukraine? Until he invaded Ukraine. Putin lies, either you don't care or you're gullible. What do you watch Russian news?

Leah, dont' try and have some sort of tit for tat with me, it's tedious and won't work with me.. I'm happy to discuss it with you if you wish. I fnot then that's grand...

He didn't have any plans to invade...at least not until the Dombass region had it's independance. Priot to that it was still considered as being part of Ukraine, thereby precluding him from invading...so hence his lack of plans to invade....

Also, from a strategic point of view he woudl have said that for the same reason no government will tell the world in advance of what they're giong to do...it's not rocket science Leah, just common sense...yo dont' give the enemy advance warning of what you're going to do....

Name_Taken_Two: War appears to me as the most fearful crime of the centuries. In it the working class are to be sacrificed so that a small clique of rulers and armament makers may sate their lust for power.

Who voted in a Jewish president? If you mean Biden, he's not Jewish, he's of Irish descent (I know his cousins and they're catholic) so given both of those, I'm assuming he's some description of catholic (which, given his bloodthirsty nature, is hugely ironic). If you mean Putin, as far as I know he's aetheist (not sure about that though). Not that it's relevant in this case..

Grow up Leah, making it personal about me reflects more on you than it does me and shows just how little you actually know on the subject.

You have absolutely no idea what I believe and you clearly have no idea whose telling the lies. I can assure you if I was any ways unsure of what I was saying I'd make a point of saying I wasn't sure.

As for your "Jewish" statement. That speaks volumes as to your character, that's just a cheap shot at a relgion and utterly irrelevant..

I think you might be right about that, your last paragraph in particular.
