so, you would have been okay with allowing Germany to conquer all of Europe, Russia, & Great Britain, and letting Japan subjugate the entirety of Asia ? argue away, Mr. Chamberlain. this should be "enlightening"...I will always argue with anyone who believes a war can be justified
That wasn't what I was saying mate. I wouldn't expect you to understand Hippy, I don't mean that disrespectfully either, we just look at some things very differently. I wish I could think about things in a black and white manner, but I cannot...so, you would have been okay with allowing Germany to conquer all of Europe, Russia, & Great Britain, and letting Japan subjugate the entirety of Asia ? argue away, Mr. Chamberlain. this should be "enlightening"...
don't you think that maybe this reply from you demonstrates that you, too, may have a little bit of a "unilateral" viewpoint?I get what you're saying, but you sort of proved that you have a unilateral viewpoint with this post. I wasn't saying you were a nationalist or flag waving 'Murica first type. But, everything you presented above is painted with the optics of Uncle Sam. The fact you protested Iraq and Vietnam, but believe in other wars, just shows me you go with the populist flow. No one wanted to go to Vietnam, no one (except Cheney) thought it was a good idea to invade Iraq. I too went to Iraq protests while I was still living in the states. I also oppose any and all types of war, I can't see death and destruction of our fellow man as justified, no matter the spin put on it.
We (the US) had also been in and out of Afghanistan for the past 60 years, not 20. It was even us who taught and armed what later became the taliban, to fight 'the good fight' against communism. I have been to Afghanistan and many other derided places in the middle east and have found them to be the opposite of what you describe, I met some of the warmest, deepest, most incredible people I have come across on that those trips. Some of the best cannabis and hash I ever smoked came from there as well.
I'd also like to reiterate I am not attacking you, just your point of view, trying to frame it from a different perspective. I don't know your history or if you or your family have had anythign to do with any of these wars, but mine have. My great grandfather was interned at Dachau concentration camp for helping to print and distribute a socialist newspaper condemning the occupation. He survived. His son, my mothers father, was killed in service while serving in the NZ SAS. My fathers father, who grew up as a poor sharecropper in North Carolina, was in the Air Force during Vietnam and always imprinted on me that he did that so future generations never had to. I had a lot of friends from high school that joined the forces when we invaded Iraq, 8 out of 9 of them have killed themselves after returning from service. The one who didn't became the sergeant at arms for a well known violent 1% club. He said it was the only way he knew how to live after what he went through. I myself have never served, but have served time due to the "war" on drugs.
So to me, no war is ok, the events that follow any kind of war never progress humanity. I can't stand by and support that in any way and I will always argue with anyone who believes a war can be justified, the world is never that black and white.

^^^ show us why the Allies in WW2 were not justified. ^^^ i'll wait. i'm retired, got all the time in the world. it IS black and white. you go to war, or you let evil win. there was no gray area in this case.That wasn't what I was saying mate.
i hate to be the one to mention this, but many out there (and a couple in HERE!) don't believe that what Nazis did in the camps actually happened.Auschwitz wasn´t liberated with pacifism and flowers.
Not only do you deny nazism in Ukraine but you also make solidarity postings to the OUN/UPA and its founder, national hero Stepan Bandera, architect of the Holocaust in Ukraine.People who don´t believe the holocaust are stupid and human trash or believe that the world is flat.
But to be clear then, you consider anyone who do not believe the myth that 6 million jews were killed in gas ovens and turned into human lampshades and soap to be human trash, untermensch.
Only the Ukrainian holocaust because it can be used for an excuse for genocide.But to be clear then, you hate Nazis, but don't believe in the holocaust.
hey, they have to make money while they can. no omelets without breaking eggs...a bike gang (night wolves) and fsb(?) deliberately had most of a brigade killed to hide stealing [heavy] weaponry.
boy, if that became common knowledge among the combat troops (those that are still alive) Ukraine might find a sudden source of motivated new troops & equipment. then again, Russia -might- just dip their toes into some really nasty civil war scenarios...they have gone there before.^he is also insinuating this wasn't the only time it happened. I don't know if he is right or not. Maybe there just isn't enough heavy weaponry for the troops and he just can't grasp it? Who knows, but that would be much less horrible of a scenario... Neither is great for Russia...

Toxoplasma gondii is a kind of intracellular parasite that parasitizes nucleated cells and can spread throughout the body. According to existing reports, T. gondii infects almost all mammals, including humans and birds (Dubey, 2009). Cats are the most important hosts in the life cycle of T. gondii because of the production of environmentally resistant oocysts (Must et al., 2017).
