The Europeans really had it front and back. Raped from the front and sodomised from behind!

On the front side, they are dumping weapons into a black hole in Ukraine. Every time they send different weapons they claimed it is a 'game changer'. Nothing changes. The only thing that changed is Ukraine losing more territory. Do we honestly believe those animal named tanks will change the game? And Russia will forever remember what Nato did, just like Asians not forgetting what the Japanese did during WW2. That is baggage that Nato has to carry forever for trying to threaten Russia by aiding Ukraine.


On the back side, the Europeans are solely bearing the brunt of the energy crisis. Sure, the USA is supplying energy to fill the Russian gap, but at what price? On the surface, the Europeans are sanctioning Russia's energy exports, but discreetly, they are still buying Russian energy via the back door from China, India and even Saudi Arabia.

China, India and Saudi Arabia actually have no necessity to even go to that extent of trying to resell Russian oil to the Europeans by stealth. China for example is in fact using the cheap discounted Russian oil and gas for domestic consumption, while reselling their oil sourced from the USA under long term contracts, and reselling them to the Europeans at big profits. The USA oil does not even have to be shipped to China, but goes straight from USA ports to Europe. And that is also what the Saudis are doing, using cheap discounted Russian oil for domestic usage, while selling their own oil production to the Europeans. There are always ways of getting around man made problems and hurdles. It is only a question of thinking out of the box.

Russia sells its oil to China and India at 40% discount, which is well below the US$60 a barrel price cap. China and India are making hay while the sun shines, being able to consume cheap discounted Russian oil and gas domestically and laughing all the way to the bank by reselling oil from other sources to Europe at huge profits. Don't blame them, as the USA is doing the same thing as a close ally of the Europeans. Europeans are not allies of China or even India, just trading partners.

And that is causing serious problems for European industries and hollowing out their industrial base for good. This will be a long term problem for Europe, because the European energy market now belongs to the USA, and energy will no longer be as cheap as piped gas from Russia. Moreover, Russia is unlikely to divert cheap oil and gas sales back to Europe, even if the war ends in Ukraine. Russia, even if it does do so, will not sell energy so cheaply anymore to Europe. That is a given, in order to compensate for the unreliability of the Europeans as a market for energy.

You believe in BBC News? That must be a kiss-ass news.

I don't understand people who comment that Ukraine should give in to Russia. Ukraine belongs to people of Ukraine not other countries, and it is up to them to decide. If some bullies comes to your house and occupy your house and make your wife and children to please, will you say the same thing? Will you not seek the police and justice? The reason why Russia want to attack Ukraine is because they think Ukraine is weak with hardly effective military might. Once Ukraine give in to bully, the bully will demand more. Ukraine has no one to turn to for help other than western countries, so what's your problem? It is not as if you going to help Ukraine end the war? If the western want to help Ukraine despite the challenge, let them be, so what's your problem?

Yeah, yeah, yeah, USA also bully other countries, so Russia can also do likewise, or NATO is waging proxy war. Blah, blah, blah, Going Déjà vu.

Please, you can say anything you want as long as you are not victim. Time and time again, I see the same thing happen, people who actually been pragmatic and not the victim suddenly have 180 degree turn to their view when they become the victim.

You don't have to believe in the BBC news, the Best Bullshit Channel.

The German industrialists themselves know the true state of affairs of Germany with regard to energy. Why are big long established German companies like Seimens, Mercedes, BASF relocating to China and USA where energy is cheaper, not just currently, but for the longer term which they are betting on? Even BMW in UK is doing the same and relocating to China. They could foresee that in the long term it is a dead bet to stay in Germany or UK, even if supplies can be relied on from USA. And that, may I ask again - at what price? Russia resupplying cheap energy to Germany and Europe is a flimsy bet and a foregone conclusion.

Everyone just mind their own business. The Ukrainians want to kill the Russian speaking Ukrainians, go ahead and kill them. The Russians not happy with the killing of Russian speaking Ukrainians, go into Ukraine to stop the killing, go ahead.

The Americans and Europeans want to help Ukrainians to fight Russians, go ahead.

What is the problem? No problem at all. Any Asean country want to join the Americans to fight the Russians, go ahead.

Where got problem. Those that do not want to fight and die, just watch from the side line, drink kopi song song. No need to be on any side.

Russia attacking Ukraine is not without reason and if you only follow the MSM, the narrative they are selling is that Ukraine did not do anything wrong to warrant Russian intervention. Far from it.

There is such a thing as the Minsk Agreement that Ukraine just completely ignored, keeps attacking Russian speaking residents in Eastern Ukraine for eight long years and killing at least 14,000. Moreover, when the Soviet Union broke up, it was agreed with Mikhail Gorbachev that Nato would not expand eastward towards the Russian border. But that agreement was never followed and completely brushed aside and ignored. Nato's intention to absorb Ukraine into its fold, which is at the doorstep of Russia, even sharing a border, that was the red line that Nato wanted to cross and Russia would never allow. Russia is not going to allow Nato, and with it the USA itself, stationing nuclear capable missiles in Ukraine eventually and threatening Moscow. The USA will categorically do that.

Just go back to Cuba, when Russian missiles were stationed in Cuba, also at the border of the USA. Did the USA not create a crisis because of that? If the Russians cannot be allowed to have a foothold in Cuba, just because Cuba is on the USA's border, why should Russia allow Nato, beholden to and controlled by the USA, allow them to be in Ukraine and posing a deadly threat to Russia?

Likewise, if China, Iran or North Korea wants to help Russia, let them be, so what is your problem with that as well? Why threaten them when Western countries can help Ukraine? Double standard cannot just be applied unilaterally by one side alone.

I have a brain of a banana and I believe in American Exceptionalism, meaning the Americans can do anything above International Law and behaviour. Other countries cannot.

When Americans invaded countries with fabricated lies, bombed the daylight out of the countries, and proudly bragged about shock and awe, killing hundreds of thousands, killing 500,000 Iraqi children was worth it, no war crimes, no violation of human rights.

If Russia would to kill 10 civilians or hit a school, it is war crime, violation of human rights.

I am a banana.

Russian TV mocked NATO tanks as toothless leopards and Battered Abrams.

They still think WWII tanks facing each other in battles?

Now modern Warfares Air Superiority strikes from Air by Missles and Drones had these tanks sitting ducks.

Missles guided radars sonic no need supersonic easily made them scrap irons.

Ukraine with hands tied with no air supports.

Helicopters also crashed.

Now Zelendskky asking for fighter planes.

Even soldiers also want to pan sais look for holes wanted to train pilots in twelve weeks.

Better fly kites. Sure crashed.

Cheers
