[burdizzo]

Was Russia trying to annex Ukraine?! I don't believe so. Why do you?

Just when I thought your brain couldn't get any smaller you just blow me off me off my feet!

So, Mr. Mensa, show us the evidence the says Russia was trying to annex Ukraine.

Why are they blasting cites to dust outside of the Russian speaking areas?

Alright.. hopefully you can head over and help with Putins reserves, seeing as it's a just annex

What are you on about? You really do have the mentality of a schoolboy. Stick to the refereeing.

Is Kyiv part of the disputed Russian territory? And has it been bombed at anytime?

You know well it's not, but you also know well it's not been "blasted to dust". Bakhmut - now that WAS blasted to dust (by both sides). As was Mariupol - although there's been a good amount of reconstruction done there.
Following your logic, the the Brits wanted to annex Dresden, or the Yanks Hiroshima.

I think you are the one that needs to look at your logic. Germany and Japan attacked the Allies and so as a consequence their cities were attacked. The point here is not about cities, it is about not invading your neighbour. Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's oblast.

That was not his point. Read back over what he said, and you will see that. We probably don't need to rehash the criminal nature of the attacks on Dresden and Hiroshima, but Milltown was linking the 'blasting of cities to dust' to the supposed Russian wish to annex Ukraine.

If Russia had not invaded Ukraine then no cities would have been blasted to dust.

Well - duh!

Burd believes Russia is just trying to take back what's theirs? You can correct me if I'm wrong.

He believes that by bombing parts of that country that's not Russian speaking is ok. As that's what's needed to do the right thing!

But I'm the school boy

As for Dresden it was bombed with a view to end the war quicker, only some manic was willing to allow every German to die rather than surrender.

Good doc on Netflix about that currently, you should watch it

Within wars there are individual evil acts, but ultimately the root cause of all of these is the people who started the war.

Yes, you are the schoolboy. My contribution on the last page inferred NONE of the things you've assumed I believe. NOT ONE. Yet you fling about insults at me, and imply that I'm somehow stupid. I'm afraid your contributions to this and other threads are below par, and are barely worth responding to. They're not exactly challenging. In fairness, you're not the only one who resorts to insults when you can't convincingly argue a point, but it's still pretty tiresome.

All is fair in love and war, eh?! Of course, who is to blame for starting any war is only decided by history. Everything happens for a reason, and "Putin is a madman" is not a convincing reason. Sorry, but you have to go a bit deeper.
