trolls skewing the vote asideI'd like to know who voted for the American approach
Or maybe, God forbid, some people have a different opinion than you do. I know it is a hard concept...
Putin's takeover of the Ukraine, what should be done?
- Thread starter Oh my god. it's Robby!
- Start date

Robby, "Act first, think later..." I'm guessing - does not encompass the approach that most Americans would like to make.
Of course, I'm making this assumption without my awesome wonderwoman superhero signature, which was deemed semi inappropriate.

I know, right
yeah, well, I exaggerated the weakness of the "European approach" so I thought it was only fair to do the same for oursRobby, "Act first, think later..." I'm guessing - does not encompass the approach that most Americans would like to make.

and your signature was one of the best
pretty lame if "the powers that be" made you get rid of it

Russia kicked out of the G8, well the G7

perhaps this could be the beginning of some real isolation on Putiin's evil regime, I'd like to think that

Is shooting down a passenger plane a step too far?
That c*** Putin will have some explaining to do for sure.

He's right in Syria, and has a sort of point in Ukraine, but whichever side shot down this airliner is royally shafted.

This is f***ing ridiculous. Everyone should be ashamed of this, every human. What's it going to take?

What is what going to take, exactly? For people to stop killing each other?

I guess. I dunno. I mean this is blip compared to the nightmare in Syria, but it gets Westerner's attention becuase "Hey, I fly on a plane sometimes."

How can any responsible airline fly over an area at war?

Those of us that support Putin do so for the simple reason that he is a leader that defends old values that many of us still want to see in place. Blaming Putin for it is perhaps the most silly statement I have ever read or heard. I have taken up russian studies to prepare for the new times that await us all. People on the street openly state that they prefer Putin to the so called democracy most countries have now. I would think many countries have supplied new spies to work for Putin and his government.

Word on the streets of Ukraine is that it was the american government that were behind the missile attack on the big bird in the sky. This was of course done to make Putin look bad and put pressure on him and in that scenario a flight carrying people from the far east is of course expendable.
I have a friend who is an observer in Ukraine and that is what he told me. Do I need to state that any americans in the area are in deep trouble?

we are one step closer to the fall of Russia and its evil empire, again, let this time be the last
one thing I have found common cause with many Chinese on is their low opinion of most Russians, the term that I hear most often is "she xie"*
it basically means "blood thirsty" this terrible tragedy only confirms that
but also strengthens the growing bond between Americans, the rest of the West, the people of China on the one side with Russia and its lackeys on the other
this means Russia will only slip into further isolation, as it should, eventually that wretched part of the world will completely collapse and we should be ready to step in with China to remake it
and yes, that is exactly what Putin and his cronies are doing, just as Hitler paved the way for Russian domination of the rest of Eastern Europe, the only real end game here is China carving up what remains of the Russian empire**, leaving only a truncated state, along the lines of what happened to Germany after WW2, only don't expect the Russians ever to rise from those ashes as the Germans did, because let's face it, too many of them just love violence, tyranny and backwardness for that to ever happen
though, I would love to be wrong, not all Russians are evil
*=you basically say it: shi(short i vowel sound) she(long e vowel sound)
**=many Chinese thinking of it as a historical inevitability and I am coming to agree with them

1. we buy oil from Saudi scum
2. we unconditionally support Israel*
I'd like to think that an end to point #1 would mean the same for #2
so yeah, not just for the planet's ecology
but to allow the Middle East to return to being the largely sandy, powerless, filled with ancient ruins region its supposed to be
we just gotta stop using so much gasoline back in the good ole US of A, whatever way possible, alternative fuels, mass transit projects, whatever it takes!
*=the money of the American people almost directly bank rolls the arsenals that surround Israel and threats to its security, the real ones I mean, not kids throwing stones or the morons with RPGs
almost all the shit that goes down in the Middle East is because of two things:
1. we buy oil from Saudi scum
2. we unconditionally support Israel*
