TODAYS BIG CONVERSATION: War with Russia

[symyjym]

You need to widen your research.

Disgusting Fake News pushed by the Kremlin's propaganda department.

Basically you can do what you want in the Ukraine, but invade Poland and the gloves are off.

 

[AmexRuislip]

We've already got British troops in the Ukraine and are increasing the number.

Crimea is Russia's Gibralta, Ukraine is a fascist state and the Middle East is on their doorstep as with China. It has nothing to do with us or NATO.

So we shouldn't have gone to war with Germany, because Poland was nothing to do with us. We shouldn't do anything until a dictator, having already taken over the rest of Europe, is invading the UK. Brilliant plan.

 

[Triggaaar]

I don't feel threatened by Russia.

Presumably because they pay you to troll.

 

[Cheshire Cat]

I don't feel threatened by Russia. I am more worried about the British government being sucked into wars, financing them, and warmongering from the sidelines. Unfortunately in Syria we gave the so called rebels confidence it taking the war to Assad and are responsible for mass migration from the Middle East and North Africa. I don't believe we have ever been at war with Russia unlike our friends across the pond and our old foes in Europe during and before the British Empire.

Crimean war?
Fighting Bolshevics at end of WW1 in support of White Russians?

Not forgetting 1945-90 when we were in a constant state of readiness and fighting numerous global proxy wars against them. So, basically, apart from the majority of the last century, can someone tell Symjym when we've ever had a conflict with Russia?

Not forgetting the air lift to Berlin in 1948-49, when Russia took over Eastern Europe.
My Dad said we should have kept going once we reached Berlin in 45. Stalin killed more people than Hitler.

And why was Crimea important to us? It was a Turkey Russian issue and Turkey was our enemy in WWII. Let's give back Gibraltar, Northern Ireland and the Falklands.

It was the Russians who lost the most men fighting Hitler and it could be argued that if it wasn't for them we wouldn't have won the war.

I vaguely remember that, was around the HMS Ark Royal?

 

[clippedgull]

They should film a submarine series.

They could even have sub-titles

 

[Questions]

So it’s Russia versus the Ukraine then.

Who’s got he rights then BT or Sky ?

Absolutely not. It annoys the hell out of Spain, Eire and Argentina and that alone is why they're worth hanging onto. BTW, Turkey was neutral in WW2

It was a shame for those young lads. They should have had a sea daddy looking after them, like you.

Stalin killed more of his own men than Hitler. The Russians murdered the
Polish in their droves as they matched west.

Great bit of propaganda but what have brawls in parliament got to do with anything?

The Japanese, Italians for example all love a political dust up, plenty of fights in the Russian Duma over the years as well.
