wasn't the excuse as to why STWC wouldn't protest Russian intervention for example that they would only oppose actions of their own government?Stop the War coalition is galvanised into action, calling a demo this eve. Not to do with dead children but to do with Trump's meddling, obvs.
Indeed - it's even on their blurb for the bristol demo today.wasn't the excuse as to why STWC wouldn't protest Russian intervention for example that they would only oppose actions of their own government?
not that it isn't a wretched line anywayIndeed - it's even on their blurb for the bristol demo today.
OK, I don't mind being regarded as a thicko here but why is the US so utterly exercised by the threat of some Putin rampage...despite being thousands of miles away and totally encircled by NATO bases...while here, on the next continent, barely a single UK citizen is losing even a nanosecond of sleep over the threat of Russia...and ' Putin stooge' as an abusive epithet is as effective as a slap with a damp tissue. Apart from the general US cold war paranoia (which seems to cover anything from area 51 to a pinko commie plot to steal our guns)...just what is the political and social basis for this overwhelming fear of uncle Vlad. Surely not some 'hacking' and spying?
eta admittedly, my main interaction with USians is on various gardening forums...but even there, they are demented about Putinbots and so forth. Am I hiding away too much in the greenhouse? Are the reds under the beds about to arise (not referring to dahlias and begonias here either).

Uncle Vlad has 7,000 nuclear warheads pointed at the US.
At least Hibbert had a try when he could.
Does this butcher person specialise in chopping up sentences and sticking them back together in random order and using them as weapons to torpedo any discussion. He then asks dumb leading questions and demands a response. Bitch please.butcher bastard would ike us to forget and why?
It would appear that these folks are not very good at keeping their composure and "lose their shit" all too easily. Are they any of the ASSAD DID IT! brigade around that can properly conduct themselves without all the hysterical and emotional hyperbole? I'm not particularly good at debating, however I'd live to see butchersbitch and 10thdan have a fact based debate with someone like Ryan Dawson who appears to know his shit. Now that would be interesting. I'd pay to watch that.8den loses his shit when then facts don't figure.
Are you going to reply to the question that i asked you earlier?Does this butcher person specialise in chopping up sentences and sticking them back together in random order and using them as weapons to torpedo any discussion. He then asks dumb leading questions and demands a response. Bitch please.

This is Ryan Dawson the holocaust denier.Does this butcher person specialise in chopping up sentences and sticking them back together in random order and using them as weapons to torpedo any discussion. He then asks dumb leading questions and demands a response. Bitch please.

His face covered by a Guy Fawkes mask, Dawson claims that the six million death toll for the Holocaust “comes from a religious prophecy; it has nothing to do with reality.” He calls the six million death toll and reports of gas chambers, “BS” and “Zionist propaganda,” and complains that the world exclusively focuses on the Jewish victims of World War II. In this May 2014 video, Dawson and his guest, Josh Blakeney (a 9/11 Truth activist and Canada correspondent for Iran’s state-run Press TV) , link “Holocaust skepticism” with 9/11 Truth and express outrage that anyone would regard them as conspiracy theories. Blakeney had a second interview with Dawson in May, this time to blame “Zionists” for the Ukraine crisis. (In Dawson’s defense, he doesn’t restrict himself to slanders against Jews. In a January, 2013 video, Dawson somehow turned from discussion of neocons, bankers and the Holocaust to discussion of Sandy Hook conspiracy theories, calling the father of one of the victims of the schoolhouse massacre “a dick (who) wants money for his dead kid”. )
The Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons are investigating. Will their judgement be good enough for you?
He has said that he doesn't believe Assad is 'killing his own people' (ugh). Which means he doesn't think the barrel bombs and other attacks on civilians have happened. That's denial on a level with the holocaust denial of the person he has just recommended above. And it fatally undermines the lie that he has attempted to put about about as just being someone who wants 'none of the above'- i.e he opposes all attacks. He's a ideologically motivated poster who strongly supports the assad regime and all that it entails. (As far as these internet snails ever actually support anything that is).Is Trumped denying Assad's hateful murder spree or mainly disputing the necessity of US intervention? Not really clear on this but it appears that an acceptance of Assad's regime must go hand in hand with (more) US (and UK) retaliation. Not being snarky or winding anyone up - genuinely seeking an answer to what would or should be an appropriate intervention (given the egregious abuses which have generally followed US adventures in the ME).
As far as I could see, it appeared that Trumped was arguing AGAINST intervention. Not suggesting anyone here might be arguing for it. I admit to being confused. Is Trumped a returning poster (after mentioning a 6 year history) as I took it on faith that he was a new member with a stance which was overtly and primarily opposed to US aggression.
this is the bitYou are (incoherently) repeating the same simplistic "he's killing his own people" narrative which I am not taking as read.
6 years refers to the start of the syrian uprising. The US has intervened in one way or another during that whole period. As has many other states and interests. The people that trumped supports have been to the fore of this since the backend of 2015. They didn't say a word during the thousands of airstrikes that their side carried out and the thousands of civilians killed. Now a single strike on their side and they are wrapping themselves in the flag of peace. It's disgusting.As far as I could see, it appeared that Trumped was arguing AGAINST intervention.

... and yet ironically Russia has never been less of a threat to them; under the Soviets those 7,000 warheads would be reliably expected to have worked and under Yeltsin there was a likelyhood they would get lost, sold, filched etc. In Putin the Russians have a leader who has overseen the biggest eastward expansion in NATO's history, who has provided some stability over there and who has poured billions into the financial systems of the West, and yet he is obviously some terrifying amalgam of Hitler and Tony Hibbert who is poised to steal all our opportunities to make fools of ourselves in the Middle East who absolutely must be stopped by some combination of other people.
the Russian statement, linked to on page one said Yes a Syrian plane flew that mission but it blew up a depot which contained the sarin...it wasn't a chemical attack but the attack accidently triggered a sarin release.Not sure what the Russian government have said at this point, except that they don't approve obvs. But we know the rebels have the ability to manufacture their own chemical weapons.
