We are being set up fella, all perpetuated by the media we consume, like Beth pointed out there’s always been the boogeyman, who is to blame for societies ills, it’s just ramped up some. Just look at the last couple of years for some truly outrageous examples you wouldn’t have dreamed of a decade ago.. parts of society demonised nurses for having the audacity of having breaks and trying to lift their spirits on social media… bastards having breaks!!! The RLNI are apparently criminal traitors, the England football team are Marxists, teachers, the national trust… the list goes on. At the end of all of this certain people will be making or looking to make money off of it, they always have.
Not all of them celebrated Goldy, my grandfather in law being one of them. He would never display his medals nor talk with any pride in killing another human being. It all disgusted him
I think you and others have totally misunderstood Staines opinion on this subject. I happen to agree that there are never just good and bad guys. Any needless death is a waste. Life is precious and i feel for all the ukranians who are losing their homes and lives. I just find it strange that the same publicity and sympathy isnt stretched to all the other countries decimated by war
Every other **** is opening their doors for a Ukranian but if youve got brown skin you can **** off to Rwanda!!!
Proximity. In this country, it's easier to identify with Ukranians who live a life like we do and whose country some of us have visited on holiday etc, compared with countries farther afield like Yemen that most don't know much about. Primary concern for Yemen should lie with the Gulf states etc. Truth is, they don't give a toss about their neighbours.
RIP to the 5 people killed in the bombing in Kharkiv earlier today. My thoughts and prayers are with them Hopefully that will satisfy Goldie and his boys
Ukraine war: First pictures show Russian warship Moskva sinking https://mol.im/a/10727703 “Horrific burns”, “lost limbs”, “hundreds of dead”….. Yeah those conscripts got everything they deserved…. Time to crack open the bubbly
I repeat, it's perfectly possible to celebrate taking out a major part of Putin's aggressive war machine, without wishing the crew members ill. The sinking of the Bismark was celebrated in the UK in 1941, yet a British cruiser stayed around as long as it was able (believing there was a U-boat in the area) to pick up survivors from the German Navy. No reasonable person in the UK celebrated the deaths of the crew. That is war. That is what Russia has inflicted on Ukraine for seeking its independence.
I would expect that from someone who couldn't see the right or wrong of the Nazis invasion of Poland in 1939, Stainsey
Now where did I say that Goldie…….You making it up again ? You’re learning from others on here how to twist someone’s post to suit there needs……I’ll expect another white feather in the post along with Cols…….I could even make a pillow out of them.
In my post to you on 21 March #74815, I asked you: "I'm assuming you would have no trouble picking a side when Germany invaded Poland" Your reply, # 74819: "I really don't know. I haven't looked into the politics of it all."
A very brave man. Really dangerous position on a bomber. I was talking about the Battle of Britain when fighter pilots were going head to head with other fighter pilots during Nazi Germany's preparation of an attempt at invasion of the UK. They were concerned about knocking Nazi machinery out of the sky. Bomber crew had a different attitude I'm sure, because they were being asked often to bomb cities and civilians
