In 2020 IMF + World Bank gave Ukraine new loans on condition it remove restrictions on collateralization + sale of land. Translation: massive transfer from smallholder farmers to oligarchs + Western investors. https://twitter.com/RobertKennedyJr/status/1658877627287891968 ------------------------- |

The bankers will grab as much land as they can. ------------------------- Bernie's Tweets May 17, 2023 WAR - It’s not like they didn’t tell you the real reason beforehand. It was printed in plain sight. You were just diverted from the truth.

Yup, solar energy can be decentralized that short of keeping the skies blackened a modest amount of sun can at least aid critical areas. You don't have to worry about your nuclear plant being isolated, damaged or destroyed. Or your coal plant, or your dam. https://www.washingtonpost.com/climate-solutions/2023/05/20/ukraine-solar-hospitals-attack-russia/ You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans?

| rxwine Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 189 Posts: 18799 | Not sure I agree with the idea of using cluster munitions in Ukraine with the rationale that it is only going to be used on pure military positions. Doesn't that open the door to arguing, why not use nerve gas, or thermobaric munitions if it's just on a confined military position? Those thermobaric bombs can take out a whole battalion of close quartered troops in bunkers. Or maybe the idea is, to point out the idea that if Russia starts using them, so will Ukraine. I suppose that could work. Still seems risky. War is a dangerous game of calculations, no doubt. You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |

Russia has already been using cluster bombs. They are great for anti-personnel weapons. The biggest argument against them is they they do not all explode and some will be lying around where civilians may actually find them and then they explode when handled.

It won't be the first time. Wonder if the Russians will eventually secrete themselves among Ukrainians civilians. I do have to give the Russians more credit than the worst terrorists. Watched an interview with 3 formerly captured Ukrainian women. All were captured separately. But according to the women, only Ukrainian men were raped. However everyone was tortured including the women. Okay? Still, I guess that is better. You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |
