All the more reason for Ukraine to blow up every oil terminial and pipeline pumping station in Russia.

Putin can't sell oil which can't make it to the tanker.

That is a poor bet for several reasons, among them:

-Too much oil has to pass through the Strait of Hormuz to be replaced by Russia.

-Russian oil is lower quality than most Persian Gulf oil, so it cannot be simply offered as a replacement

- Ukraine is not going to let Russian easily export oil.

Pretty sure the language was a tad more spicy in the second version.

Maybe my limited experience with Russians is dated, but I would be surprised if the workers did not both smoke and drink while on the shop floor.

She spent countless hours reviewing videos, photographs, and written descriptions of older men sexually abusing girls as young as 12-13.

Her response has been, "I can make all this disappear."

She is dead inside.

Russian oil deliveries are reliable?

I wonder what the BELGIANS have to say about that?

BELGIANS! 🤣

Thanks to Trump, he has to run in a new CD which Trump lost by 10 points in 2024.

He's desperate to keep his seat, but it is unlikely to work.

He's toast.

They wait for breaks?

For International Women's Day.

Which I'm thinking runs counter to the Kremlin's "Need-to-Breed" narrative, but it is still a holiday.

They are shorting teachers ~$190?

They can't cover $190 per teacher?

Good Gawd!

Yep, the Iranian Regime can hide in bunkers and caves longer than the Orange Man-Baby can hide from higher gasoline prices.

NATO was CREATED by the Europeans in order to entice the US to retain a military presence in Europe following the Russian aggressions of 1946-48.

It was about Russian aggression, not arms sales during a period of disarmament.

The US supplied huge amounts of arms to both the western allies AND Russia DURING THE WAR.

For every ton of shipping dedicated to the US war effort in Europe another ton went to the UK or Russia.

Everyone in the West was disarming after the war.

NATO was not about arms sales.

Is there an oversupply of doctors in North Korea?

🤔

Which has nothing to do with your false claim that the US created NATO to boost arms sales.

The US was busy retooling industry for commercial products and reabsorbing soldiers back into civilian life from 1945-48. Arms sales were not even on the radar.

US companies sued the US for bombing the factories they owned but did not control in Germany.

Because the US dropped the bombs.

Facts. You should use them.

The US paid far more to support Germany during direct occupation and then as aid in the early 50s than it "received" from the dismantling of German War industry.

It was Russia which stripped everything it could from Germany, even stealing wealth through inflating the common currency.

Yes, the English language absorbed elements of other languages, and these influences differed in America and the UK.

The assumption that the language was not changing in both America and the UK between 1600 and the present is a poor one.

Soviet Russia ALLIED with Hitler in August of '39, agreeing to supply millions of barrels of oil to the Nazi war machine once the Brits bottled up German ports.

Russia loved the Nazi as long as other countries were being invaded.

In June of '41 it became an arsonist caught in its own fire.

Germany did not pay reparations to the US.

After the war it was the US which funded the reconstruction of Germany alo g with several other European countries, while Soviet Russia was stripping what it could out of Germany and the rest of Central Europe.

Facts. You should try them.

Two peoples divided by a common language.

One must keep in mind that the American colonies were founded ~150 years prior to the first widely available written attempt to standardize English spelling by a school master in London, Johnson's dictionary.

At the same time, it was the USSR which ALLIED with Nazi Germany in August of 1939 and supplied Hitler's war machine with the oil needed to make the war possible.

So much for your grand conspiracy theory.

Ford Company in the US lost control over its German subsidiary during the war. To the extent there was unofficial contact and collaberation is a matter of extensive debate.

Both Ford and GM successfully sued the US government for damages to their respective assets from wartime bombing.

...

History tells us that the US was disarming / demobilizing from 1945-48.

Russia sponsored a coup in Prague and blockaded Berlin in '48, causing the US to pass the Selective Service Act and renew the draft.

When your conspiracy theories are easily refuted by facts, the problem is not with the facts.
