Look at item 6 in the definition of religion at https://www.dictionary.com/browse/religion.

6. something one believes in and follows devotedly; a point or matter of ethics or conscience:
to make a religion of fighting prejudice.

Everybody has a different religion, because no two people think exactly alike. The thing that is wonderful is that most people include in their personal religion, acting peacefully with people of religions different than theirs.

Russia has it's back against the wall. So, it will fight with everything it has. And it has a lot. The resulting destruction when it fights, will obliterate Russia, but it will also destroy any strength that the rest of the world has. We will be plunged back into medieval times if not into the stone age.


So Russia has its back against the wall because of Ukraine? Russia has the right to be concerned about NATO expansion but Ukraine hasn't been against Russian aggression? Russia is blaming the USA for being responsible for this war so why don't they attack the USA directly? It has cruise missiles, advanced air defense, aircraft and ships. If you say Russia won't because this will start world war 3 then I want to say Russia already took the risk to start it.

Russia has it's back against the wall because of US aggression. The US is hiding behind the Ukraine while it supplies them with armaments to fight Russia.

It all started with the threat of the Ukraine being accepted into NATO. It seems that for 8 years before Putin tried to pacify the situation with force, the Ukraine was killing Russians by the thousands - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5382794.msg60121986#msg60121986; https://www.lewrockwell.com/2022/05/no_author/russia-started-the-war-and-other-fallacies/. And Russia is supposed to sit around and let that go on and on?

Why do you want to start a war with the facts I present? You've lost your war from the get-go.

Time to look at the rest of the story. You are missing it.


'Russia Started the War' and Other Fallacies



...

So, why does the media keep repeating the lie that Russia started the war when it is clearly false?

The fact is, Putin sent in the troops to put out a fire not to start one. If ever there was a situation where the Responsibility To Protect (R2P) could be justified, it’s in east Ukraine prior to the invasion. 14,000 ethnic Russians had been killed before the shelling began. Should Putin have looked the other way and allowed another 14,000-or-so to be slaughtered without lifting a finger?

No, Putin did what he had to do to save lives and defend Russia’s national security. Even so, he has no territorial ambitions and no desire to recreate the Soviet Empire. His “special military operation” is, in fact, a defensive operation designed to remove emerging threats that could no longer be ignored. Putin’s 83% public approval rating proves that the Russian people understand what he is doing and fully support him. (A political leader would never garner that level of support if the people thought he had launched a war of aggression.)

Some readers might remember that –before sending in the tanks– Putin invoked United Nations Article 51 which provides a legal justification for military intervention. Here’s an excerpt from an article by former weapons inspector Scott Ritter who defended the Russian action like this:

...


Cool

That's why Putin's troops attacked and tried to conquer Kyiv, while "accidentally" murdering civilians, yes?
"special military operation" my ass!
You're delusional, my brainwashed friend.



You forgot to read the article. Civilians die in wars just like soldiers. For the past 8 years, Russian civilians were dying at the hands of Ukranians by the thousands. And Putin is supposed to stand for the US not listening to his pleas for the US to stop supporting the Ukraine? Click the links to the article, above.

Congratulations. You are still alive, even though you are living with politics.

Trump's method of communicating isn't a problem for anyone except himself, maybe. Anybody who doesn't like it can stop listening.

Now you are simply lying. Trump didn't shoot or attempt to shoot anyone.

The videos show the Capitol police welcoming everyone in on January 6.

Trump was promoting free trade with Russia and the Ukraine and the US. Putin liked it. No war there.

Biden stopped the free trade with Russia. War is the result.

Putin doesn't want war. How do we know? He hasn't nuked the free world as he could if he were a war monger.

The whole thing is about bringing countries into NATO, countries that are bordering Russia. Quit threatening Russia. If there had been no serious threat to them, there would be no war right now, just like there was no threat to them with Trump.

Canada and Mexico have no strength to oppose Russia. If Russia moved into Canada or Mexico, and had friendly relations with them, wouldn't that irritate the US government?

Stop irritating Russia. Pull the US out of the Ukraine before the war goes worldwide with no chance of stopping it.

Did you have a good sleep?

Cool

Mostly. Unfortunately what Trump does affects the US and the rest of the world and it is not possible to ignore it. A few of the things you mention, like the "police was welcoming people" do not match with the police dead. Perhaps the party got out of control or what's the cover for that?

If Russia wants friendly relations with his neighbours that's what they should be aiming for. They failed and used violence (they did not get the chick and decided to rape).

Anyway, back to Ukraine. I hope you slept well too.

What matters? The thing that matters is that Biden is POTUS, and all the bad things Trump naysayers predicted about Trump are happening under Biden... and probably worse.

I can live with Trump politics and I can live with Biden's. The problem is how Trump tends to communicate and respond to criticism by trying to shoot anyone opposing. Seriously, even getting near to supporting a mob assaulting the congress would have been science fiction before him.

No, you have stated that the Russian invasion would have not happened with Trump. That is a quite bold guess. My guess is that it would have happened anyway, but due to his "experience" with Ukraine and his narcissistic personality it would have ended either letting Putin take Ukraine or on a full scale NATO intervention with a clear risk of nuclear war. Your guess, my guess. And now, guess who is going to sleep.

So you think you know what some imaginary future would have been with Trump, right? We're seeing YOUR Trump future being played out by Biden right now. And all the evidences of Trump in the past showed a Peacemaker who made America stronger.

On the other hand, what Putin can do or not do is questionable. Are the reports of his nuclear capabilities in the waters around the world true? If they are, you might destroy Russia, but the cost would be so bad that you might as well simply kill yourself. Trump would never have let the situation go to the point where Putin might get scared enough to use his nukes.

And Russia... Russia only needs one more thing to win everything... PEOPLE. Russia owns Siberia, and Siberia has so much material wealth that they don't need anything from the rest of the world.

Furthermore, Russia has the history of the world just like all the other governments do. Communications around the world have provided this knowledge of the past to everyone. Russia knows what works in war and what doesn't. They know what holds a nation together and what doesn't. They know how to appease their people to get them to willingly work for their homeland (unlike Lenin and Stalin and the Bolsheviks). Biden knows this all, as well. But we don't see Biden endearing any average Americans to his ways.

Russia has everything to gain and nothing to lose in a game of standing up to the rest of the world. If Russia's hand is forced, we all go back to the middle ages, or the stone age.


Well, it certainly seems that YOU can make YOUR bold assumptions, but I am not granted that opportunity. Very typical of a Trump supporter. Anyway, Trump is not the POTUS and there is another thread in politics where you can rant as much as you like.

You may want to read about the scenarios that are built around the possibility of using nuclear weapons. While it is something that I would not like to test, it is not an immediately "all nukes in", there is escalation and chances to stop. Again, there are YOUR bold assumptions, that cannot be wrong because they are inspired by your God (Trump I assume).

Your argument about Russia being a country that could be fully autonomous industrially is right in the principle. The USSR was quite disconnected (apart from the COMECON, which was not of much use). The problem is that the rest of the world is perfectly able to grow faster by commerce, growing on the exchanges of strengths, etc... Which is one of the reasons why the USSR disintegrated, despite having all natural resources at their disposal.

As simple as this, interconnexion creates competitivity and markets, autarky brings corruption, kleptocracy, inefficiency and the inability of keeping up with an adversary. Again, many of those traits exist in Russia and that is why it has been unable to bring more countries into its sphere of influence pacifically and the reason why Ukraine is being invaded.

Did you get the Covid vaxx jab? Here's how to protect yourself from many of the problems that follow.


These natural substances NEUTRALIZE covid vaccine spike proteins



It is estimated that more than 4.5 billion people worldwide have now been “vaccinated” for the Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19). Many of them now suffer from “long” covid, however, which could be due to the persistent damage caused by the spike proteins contained in (viral vector) and produced by (mRNA) the jabs.

Also known as the S protein, covid jab spike proteins do a whole lot more harm than just bind to the body’s ACE (angiotensin-converting enzyme) receptors, allowing the virus to invade cells. It turns out that covid jab spike proteins interact with many other cellular tissues, including in the lungs, mitochondria and cardiovascular system.

This assault causes all kinds of health damage to the many intricate and complex systems of the body. And in the case of messenger RNA injections (Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna), the spike proteins continue to be manufactured inside the body long after the initial jabs.

We now know for a fact that jab spike proteins:

• Damage the lung cells (including the pulmonary alveoli and pulmonary endothelial cells)
• Damage the mitochondria and DNA structures
• Damage cardiovascular cells
• Increase the risk of blood clots
• Damage brain cells
• Promote inflammation
• Suppress immunity
• Increase the risk of cancer

A 2021 paper published in the bioRxiv preprint repository found that spike proteins cause the Type 1 catalytic receptors in the kidneys to increase in kidney cell tissue, making the kidneys more susceptible to the Fauci Flu.

Spike proteins also cause cells in the small intestine to stimulate large amounts of L-SIGN (liver / lymph node-specific intracellular adhesion molecules-3 grabbing non-integrin) receptors, which defend against pathogens. The problem with this is that after a large number of adhesions occur, the small intestine becomes more susceptible to viral infection.
Brighteon.TV

Similarly, spike proteins trigger an increase in DC-SIGN (Dendritic Cell-Specific Intercellular adhesion molecule-3-Grabbing Non-integrin) receptors in the lungs, which can trigger inflammatory symptoms in the lungs.

“In addition, spike proteins can cause different degrees of oxidation of the organs, leading to more cells’ premature deaths and putting the body in a hyperoxidized state, which may further increase the risk of cancer,” reports The Epoch Times.

Another study published in the Journal of the American Heart Association (JAHA) found that spike proteins negatively impact lung functionality by causing the pulmonary alveolar cell walls to thicken and solidify. They also inhibit the pulmonary cell mitochondria, which is where energy is produced.

Prolonged covid symptoms could actually be the spike proteins damaging mitochondria and blocking their energy production. The result is a cascade of abnormalities and health problems that vary from person to person.

Perhaps the biggest fear is cardiovascular damage, the risk of which is greatly increased by the presence of spike proteins. The risk of blood clots increases massively following exposure to them, hence why many “fully vaccinated” people are developing conditions like myocarditis and pericarditis.
Here’s how to protect yourself against spike protein damage

If you or someone you know got “vaccinated” for the Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) and now regret it, all hope is not lost. The following vitamins and herbs have been scientifically shown to help neutralize spike proteins and the damage they inflict on the body.

The World Council for Health (WCH) recommends the following immune-boosting compounds, which may help to expel vaccine spike proteins while improving the symptoms they cause:

Vitamin C
Vitamin D
Omega 3 fatty acids
Quercetin
Melatonin
Zinc

N-acetyl cysteine (NAC) is a powerful anti-inflammatory that further helps protect the body against spike protein damage.

European gas importers quietly surrender to Russia and begin buying gas in RUBLES… while the West’s economic warfare scheme disastrously BACKFIRES



When the Russian military crossed into Ukraine and Vladimir Putin stated his military objectives there, European leaders were quick to escalate the situation, imposing sweeping economic and banking sanctions against the Russian people. These sanctions caused a domino effect of unintended consequences throughout Europe and the West.

The United States, Canada and Europe put up a tough, “united front” against Russia, but as their trade war against Russia escalated, supply chains were threatened and prices for valuable commodities increased throughout the West. European leaders talked a big talk against Vladimir Putin from the start, making empty demands without having much leverage at all. Russia responded to the sanctions by demanding that hostile nations in the West pay for Russian energy supplies with gold or Russian rubles. Vladimir Putin called Europe’s bluff and exposed the vulnerabilities of the West.

European gas buyers are now paying for energy in Russian rubles, emboldening Russia

Now the head of the European Central Bank, Mario Draghi, is confirming that European gas buyers are paying for energy in Russian rubles.  Draghi now says that “most gas importers” have opened up Ruble accounts with Gazprom and have acquiesced to Russian demands. One after the other, European gas buyers are violating the EU’s sanctions against Russia, as Western tough talk becomes nothing but a mere echo of weakness. The world’s reserve currency – the U.S. dollar – is taking a historic blow in the process, as Russia circumvents the petrodollar.

The West is quietly surrendering to Russia, as the Kremlin holds oil and fertilizer as leverage over the West. At the same time, the Biden regime is threatening to send more U.S. weapons and military equipment (up to $20 billion worth) to Azov, the Nazi brigades fighting in Ukraine.

4695  Other / Politics & Society / America’s diesel supply on verge of catastrophic collapse, leading to HALTING of on: May 11, 2022, 10:01:24 PM
Looks like lots of things are going to get really bad really fast. At least we are going to find out if the gloom and doom people are worth listening to. Here's one many people don't think about much.


DIESELGEDDON – America’s diesel supply on verge of catastrophic collapse, leading to HALTING of food, fertilizer, coal and energy



In what we are now calling Dieselgeddon, the supply of diesel fuel in the United States is plunging. By the end of May or early June — unless something changes dramatically — diesel fuel will go into extreme scarcity and have to be rationed across America.

Because diesel is used by nearly all trains (because they’re “diesel-electric” trains), transport trucks, construction equipment and farming equipment, the crash in diesel availability will sharply affect all the following:

    Food availability
    Fertilizers for growing food
    Coal for powering the electrical grid
    Construction projects
    Transportation of consumer goods to retail stores
    UPS, Fedex, USPS and other package carriers

Few people realize how important diesel fuel is to the economy, but they’re about to learn this all-important lesson the hard way: Without diesel fuel, America’s economy ceases to function. Full stop.

Without diesel, UPS can’t deliver packages. Amazon.com shuts down. The USPS stops delivering mail.

Without diesel, the trains can’t deliver fertilizer to farmers. Food crops don’t get planted or fail to produce sufficient harvests to feed the world.

Without diesel, all construction projects stop, meaning roads and bridges are no longer repaired. The highway infrastructure collapses.

Without diesel, the United States of America ceases to function.

It all begs the question: Why is there a diesel shortage?

Mysterious fires and biodiesel conversions of existing refineries

One reason we don’t have enough diesel being refined in America is because over the last few years, major fuel refineries shut down their diesel operations and began retooling to produce “biodiesel” — a highly inefficient, virtue signaling product that’s actually horrible for the environment and yet depends almost entirely on food production to make the fuel. (It’s incredibly wasteful to grow food and then turn that food into fuel. Just look at corn-derived ethanol fiasco that’s an ecological nightmare…)

Before we need a supplement, there must be an existing deficiency. The problem with some persons is that the supplements they consume were not recommended by medical practitioners, they only take them because others are doing the same. Speaking about vegetarianism, its by choice, I decided to be one not because I was coerced to but because I had personal reasons for being one. If you can take healthy diets, you eat whole grains, nuts, vegetables and fruits, you will need little to no supplements. Consumption of too much supplements poses one to a high health risk because they are composed of active ingredients that have strong biological effects on the body especially when you combine different forms of supplements or you take them in place of prescribed drugs.


Doctors in general only receive one or two days of training about supplements. It's all about drugs for them. They don't know anything more about supplementing than a pig knows about Sunday.
