Stop responding to him. He’s trying to get you riled up and the post below is a good example of that. Everyone needs to stop replying to Blah, Blah, Ariel, and MikeYote because they are just trolls about to be on their way out the door. All three of them, so don’t let them get to you by continuing to respond to their posts.
You’re running out of warnings trip.
You could have provided the missing map. We see sources that disagree with you, and we post them. That’s how civil discourse works.
I don’t read Russian, but I can see where some people get their ideas
"Last summer, Mr. Putin published a 5,300-word essay that expounded on many of the themes he highlighted in Monday’s speech, including the idea that nefarious Western nations had somehow corrupted Ukraine, leading it away from its rightful place within a greater Russian sphere through what he called a “forced change of identity.”
Didn’t Biden try and get Mexico to reinstate policies he stopped. Didn’t Biden try and reopen fracking. I thinking Biden wishes he had left Trumps policies in place today.
you just won’t stop will you? You pick two items and claim that equals “following in footsteps”.
There’s another one. Ukraine is a democracy. Is there a specific vote you would have liked to see? Or that the accords called for? Would you care to list everything in those accords and explain why Zelensky should agree to all of them?
Oh man, I missed this one. I generally skim your posts, but sometimes they are great for entertainment value. This idea that if liberal ideas (and by that I mean the ones everybody agrees on, like allowing people to choose what to wear and who to love and express their own feelings about how they relate to societal norms) somehow causes people to shut down radio stations, destroy infrastructure, then use their power to claim they are the ones that can bring peace and stability, that’s frightening that you accept that.
I thought Trump handled this when he called out Hillary for not using the word “terrorist”. He said she wanted to talk to the Taliban, instead of fighting them. I think you need to figure out if their “traditions” are something you respect or not.
A key point. That is standard. Just look at conflicts in Africa and you will see that same thinking.
Bill Clinton forced the Ukrainians in the early 1990s to give their nukes back to Russia and skipped the break-up of the Ukraine that was needed. Then Obama agreed to help Ukraine keep all the territory. Why was Ukraine worried about its territory?
The dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1990–1991 led to the independence of: Moldova, Belarus, Ukraine, Georgia, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Tajikistan, and the Baltic states of Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia.
At the time Ukraine needed to have separated the Russian speaking from the Ukrainian speaking people. That did not get done. Just look at the Kosovo conflict to see what happens when the people are left out of the political process. Our news has left the Ukrainian Russians out of the news until this last week. They have been fighting for eight years now.
You made the post about me.
Traditions have kept wars going in that area for a long time now. Before America even existed. What happened after the mini-skirts was shut down? How many years before the gain of freedoms again? Now America goes there and tells the people they can be any sex they want. And we were surprised that the police and military joined the Taliban so quickly. I bet they were not surprised. Do you still think trans is being taught there today? Why am I asking you questions. You never answer. You just like taking jabs at me. Check your balance.
I don’t like taking jabs at you Mike, I like arguing with logic, which includes pointing out bad logic. That you say things like “be any sex they want”, reveals your attitudes on a complex subject that has resulted in a lot of pain for people who don’t have the same body parts, DNA, and hormones as 98% of the people in the world. That fact has never changed, but how the majority treats people who don’t conform to their attitudes, has changed.
I’m sure they are not teaching about that in the same way we are here, although, in some private schools here, it’s definitely very similar. I don’t really understand how that question illuminates anything about the conflict in Russian. I don’t think America has as much control over curriculum as you seem to suggest.
I thought you were making a case that somehow America “meddling” in other countries somehow causes conflict, and I disagree with that if by “meddling”, you mean promoting democracy and modern science.
So, never say never. I answer a lot of your questions, and I avoid a lot of your obfuscation, baiting, red herrings, and being, in this case literally, all over the map.
Voting is a problem in a war zone to say the least.
The Minsk-2 agreement May 22, 2020 — Article 12: elections in Donbas. Election-related questions will be dealt with on the basis of the temporary law on special status adopted in …
Went to get a copy of the Minsk agreements from the UN. I looked at it a couple weeks ago. But now it will not come up. There is a 404 error. I can probably find them, it will take sometime.
American University of Afghanistan
AUAF Launches Afghanistan’s First Gender Studies Program
Gender Studies program, the first academic program of its kind to be offered in the history of Afghanistan.
Introduction to Gender Studies and Sociology of Gender.
The vision of this program is to raise awareness about gender as a social construct, gender equality, gender mainstreaming, and history of gender norms across different cultures and civilizations, especially in the context of Afghanistan, Islamic civilization, and United Nations international norms on gender.We encounter issues relating to gender even before we leave the womb.
“Given the plethora of training programs funded by international aid agencies in the past 13 years in Afghanistan, it is important to offer an academic program in gender that will help both practitioners and students to understand the role of gender as it impacts individual lives and shapes social norms affecting every sector of life and society,”

Rethinking Gender: Feminisms and Identity
Well that’s nice. I was thinking more about the high school level. Still not sure how this supports anything you’re staying
What, specifically, are you saying is our isn’t happening?
What policy was that? Mexico paying for the Great Southern Wall?
And no Biden didn’t reopen fracking. He was part of the Obama team that advocated for Green energy. It was Trump who tried encouraged all means of extracting oil and gas . He didn’t care about any consequences to the environment.
Yes in a Muslim country a University where women can get a higher education is a bad thing???
Yes, traditions have kept wars going for centuries. Especially religious traditions.
Let me remind you that Islam is an Abrahamic tradition , just like Christianity. How many wars have been fought in the name of Christianity?
NYTIMES publishes an opinion piece for the removal of Zelensky
The system won’t let me post the NYT article directly
That doesn’t alter the fact that Ukraine does have to live in a real world, and that existing on Russia’s doorstep, it might be wiser to develop some form of cooperation with that country rather than trying to threaten it as a pawn of US intransigence and aggression.
Isn’t it amazing Morgan how overnight the West mantra of international rules based order has metamorphosed into international law. Well fancy that!
And now Russia using the same justified reason the 
used in recent past such as in Libya and tried for in Syria - R2P.
My how the tables have turned
When it gets outside of the countries social boundaries it is. How many decades do you think it will take before they get back to teaching Gender Studies?
The answer is – In Afghanistan it is a bad thing to teach anything that could be looked at as against religion tradition. Studying to be a doctor is fine.
