Does anyone else notice the irony of how Russia (AKA
"The Soviet Union") made it a policy to back "wars of national liberation", meaning the rebellion of subjugated countries against their Colonial (and Imperial) masters? Kind of like a formerly subjugated state like Ukraine, that was conquered by an a monarchial empire (Czarist Russia) and brutally oppressed by the USSR after the communists overthrew the Czar?
Now Russia is using brute force to subjugate Ukraine again, lest it succeed in prospering as an independent country. An independent country that has close economic ties to Russia. Kind of like Britain invading Canada because it is acting too independently!

Not that I support Russia's invasion, but a lot of countries, including the USA, have done this.
Also, it isn't irony as much as it is hypocrisy.

The irony is Putin using Nazi reasoning and tactics to protect his people from "Nazis" in the Ukraine
Not quite the same thing.
We didn't go to Grenada to take it from them.
Heck, the Grenadans celebrate that invasion with a holiday, The invasion date is their Thanksgiving!

Looks like the Democrat war against Russia will really fill their pockets.

From Reuters: Putin to send 'doomsday' warning to West at Russia's WW2 victory parade. Here's hoping it doesn't involve cobalt-thorium G.

Putin should wear the sunglasses Biden gave him, whilst wearing a FJB shirt.

That's fine.
Hopefully he'll get the final jab in.
Be buried wearing Joe Biden's sunglasses.
Heck, bury them next to each other in the graveyard of failure

Unconfirmed reports that Russian Grigorovich-class frigate Admiral Makarov on fire near Zmiiny island, south of Odesa after being hit by Ukrainian Neptune anti ship missile.

Yup.....but thanks to Brandon we now have a new, "Ministry of Truth". Not to mention, that they are funded with taxpayer's dollars.
FJB.

I hope when China tries to invade Taiwan, this will be the same fate for Chinese vessels.

I watched a bbc news show (or maybe sky news can't remember) on Ukraine and they said a huge portion of Ukraine's economy (exports I guess) depends on shipping. They said Russia has blockaded all shipping for them. So it sounds like they need to get on the stick and sink all those ship so they can get their economy back.

Yep, shipping is huge for any country's ability to compete on the world market. Ukraine has a relatively small coastline and there only one way out of the Black Sea to the rest of the world's oceans. Land or Air is the only way to move goods for Ukraine today.

Can't have a war without a Ministry of Truth to push your propaganda.
