Why in your years of being a member haven’t you shown any interest in anything else? Post occasionally (actually read mainly) on football related threads on P&B. Nothing else interests me on here apart from these political threads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't really think his posts on this thread are going to persuade many TAMBers to take up arms and storm Kyiv. Exactly, it beats me why people are still biting at some of the posts he makes.

Orraloon Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 So who gets the blame when it happens. The US has already blamed Russia for something that hasn't happened yet. No doubt the Russians are doing the same, but we aren't allowed to read their version of events. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-60683248 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taking over a bio lab, telling the world the US had bio capabilities in Ukraine then launching a bio/chemical attack blaming Ukraine seems a bit of a stretch. Whole thing is absolutely wild: Option 1: Russians bombed the fuck out of a maternity hospital in a horrible attempt to dispirit the locals but risk pushing the buttons of the west. Option 2: Ukrainian facists used an old hospital as a base and when it got bombed try to use propoganda to push greater involvement of the west. Option 3: Amatuers and semi-amatuers cutting about with heavy weaponary make a maternity hospital go 'boom' by mistake and each sides propoganda network claims it was the other side.

SpecialisedOutsourcing Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 Well, I'd use logic and reason to apportion blame. The US stopped research into chemical weapons in 1990. Russia's ally Syria however used chemical weapons numerous times recently in its civil war there. And Russia regularly uses poison to murder opponents. https://www.themoscowtimes.com/2020/08/20/6-prominent-russians-who-suffered-poisoning-attacks-a71209 Of course, we wouldn't even be talking about blame if Russia hadn't invaded Ukraine in the first place. So therein lies the ultimate responsibility. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't just say well both sides use propaganda so I'm not going to believe any of it. For example, before posting anything on here (or anywhere) I try to make sure it's reliable and "trustworthy". I didn't post the video of the alleged Russian POW as I would definitely wanted to see proof that he was a Russian soldier. No idea if it has been proved even yet tbh.
