Re: Russian Antonov-124

The thing that bugs me about the war, without getting into the other stuff:

Biden, with Trudeaus willing agreement, is providing just enough aid to Ukraine to keep fighting, not to ever win. Deliberately.

Think about that factoid for a moment, and who benefits.

Lotta moral superiority in that.

Proud of Canada after reflecting on this?

Not that JT could tie his own shoes without a checkist.

I've been there, watched the incoming over my head. I've done my part against the ruzzian aggression.

The war would be over tomorrow if ruzzia withdrew to the borders of 1991.
You mean, you did your part in prolonging the war and getting more Ukrainians killed.

Thinking that Crimea was somehow EVER in play just shows how delusional the pro-kiev camp is.

At this point, it wouldn't make sense for Russia to accept anything less than unconditional surrender from Ukraine.

What a load of unintelligent bullshit posted by ignorant idiots.

Looking at you Reinhard and your friend from the short bus redlaser.

The only thing that would make any sense here would be to close this thread down.

The thread drift light is on solid for this one.

Anyway, I wonder if the owners of the -124 will just write it off as a loss once the bills get too high. Then it can be sold off to the highest bidder.

I want to know what's happening with that Antonov 124 at YYZ.

Also, is the -225 going to be rebuilt?

Yes, of course. On the condition that Russia follows it's word in the Budapest Memorandum that they agreed to. That includes "Refrain from the threat or use of force against the territorial integrity or political independence of the signatories to the memorandum".

But also "Seek immediate Security Council action to provide assistance to the signatory if they "should become a victim of an act of aggression or an object of a threat of aggression in which nuclear weapons are used"

Russia agreed to protect Ukrane from acts of aggression or threats of aggression involving nukes. Both of what Russia is currently doing. For Russia to follow the Budapest Memorandum, they need to defend Ukraine from Russia...themselves.

If Russia agrees to follow their own agreement, we can have peace.

The legally not binding agreement that the Western powers broke long before the start of the Special Military Operation?

The memorandum that required Ukraine to remain neutral, which went out the window in 2014 when the west supported a coup that over threw the elected government and installed a new one?

Remember when Ukraine then signed the Minsk Agreements to stop the fighting and give Donbass autonomy.

which ukraine broke and killed 15,000 civilians?

then the west proceeded to arm up ukraine, again in violation of the Budapest memorandum?

then in 2020 ukraine and the west began openly talking about joining NATO, a threat to violate the memorandum further?

then in 2021 the ukrainian government openly stated they considering restarting their nuclear program?

Russia's biggest mistake is thinking that the west were viable partners, and that their word was worth anything more than toilet paper.

It's an ancient Russian jet that has been corroding for almost two years. Who wants to fly it home? My wife definately won't allow me to.

The canadian government should quit NATO and join Russia and China for our protection, Trump the pathological liar and criminal is now looking to make Canada another American state, the minister of defence Blair should get his head out of his asshole and begin arming canadians against the American invasion instead of taking away our guns, americans want our natural resources and water

I’ll just leave this quote here.

I’d like to remind everyone whom might be reading this. Mental health is important. We don’t talk about it sufficiently.
