Dusty Devil Dale Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 Just read in the London Telegraph that France and Germany have been caught breaking the NATO sanctions and selling millions worth of bombs, missiles and other armaments to Russia. The timing of the sales was unclear in the article, but it appears it has been occurring after the Ukraine invasion began. But for perspective, Millions of dollars don't buy very many armaments these days. Hopefully this story will flesh out a bit in upcoming days. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Barleycorn, SASS #76982 Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 I guess it should be “Never Again….unless you’re a nuclear power” then you can slaughter innocents. Kuwait was NOT a NATO member, yet we built a coalition to liberate them. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whiskey Hicks Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 I just read about Macron donating defensive artillery to Ukraine. I dunno. Sources seem conflicting with one another. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cypress Sun Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 54 minutes ago, John Barleycorn, SASS #76982 said: So “Never Again” is just a platitude now. I guess it really depends on who or what is saying "Never Again". Genocide is genocide regardless of how many times it's happened. It continues to get glossed over every time. Sure, everyone is "shocked" when it happens but then, in the same breath, says "I knew it was going to happen". So yes, as sad as it is, I guess "Never Again" has become a platitude. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larsen E. Pettifogger, SASS #32933 Posted April 24 Share Posted April 24 I just read all those reports and it involves sales by ten EU members to Russia after the 2014 seizure of Crimea. Nothing about any sales after the Russian invasion of Ukraine began. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colorado Coffinmaker Posted April 24 Share Posted April 24 Don't be too quick to believe ANYTHING you see in the "news." There is so much disinformation out there in the ether it's impossible to sort it all out. Russia is purposefully dumping wild and crazy stuff to weaken NATO. The Brit media is even worse than ours for repeating garbage as "fact." 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forty Rod SASS 3935 Posted April 24 Share Posted April 24 (edited) NATO is a farce? And how long did it take for you to come to a conclusion that I had in 1955? BTW, the UN is another one that we cary on our back and we are hated for it, too. Edited April 24 by Forty Rod SASS 3935 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The sole purpose of news outlets is to tell you what they want you to hear, and they will distort the facts as a means to that end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
