  1. Imagine trying to understand Russia and going on to quote western aligned newspapers and media, yet you wonder why the sanctions failed.
    Just like the orange goblin in the white house said he didn't know Iran would attack the Gulf states or close the strait of Hormuz, which they kept telegraphing that they would, but it was BBC Persia, Open Source Intel and the like that they chose to get information from.
    The west never learns. Until they find themselves again in a quagmire just like in Iran.

  2. Russia threaten EU again..why not…it has worked so far.
    We don't give Ukraine long range weapons for fear of Russia responding.
    Western politicians are spineless cowards who prolong the war in Ukraine.
