You don’t even know how to ask a freak’n question, but you want to be taken seriously.

You’re just being another silly, silly metalhead, what do you think you know about critical thinking anyways? Thought you were going to do a thread on that? _So far you’re only shooting farts._

Probably because we don’t need those pipelines and the N.A. don’t want them on their land.

He can’t even punctuate a sentence. He can’t even punctuate properly. Punctuation, used properly, goes a long ways to communicate in writing. It’s not 100% that one will get their message across in the way they intended, but it goes a long ways in helping to communicate.

Oh buy gas from Russia so that they have the finances to continue to destroy Ukraine?  
The US is happy to make up the difference.

Where did you get “triple the price from”? Care to provide a link?

Yes, indeed. Have you noticed that the US is not the only nation responding to Putin’s brazen criminality? Why do you not pick out the rest of NATO members?

How would like to have lived under Hitler’s 1000 year NAZI empire if the US had not entered the war then?

You seem to forget that Russia once “conquered” a whole bunch of European nations and Putin was part of that abomination called the USSR.  
He has become demented and dreams of the “old glory” days.

He will not succeed. The world (United Nations) will not tolerate this.

Actually, I’d suggest it’s the global corporate _Masters of the Universe_ playing the sides against each other, and profiteering at every turn.  
Same as it ever was.  
The politicians? They are the messengers, and actors, put on the stage for the rest of us to watch.

Here in America, people created a system to counter balance that sort of dynamic.

Unfortunately, a healthy democracy requires an informed and engaged citizenry and we seems to have lost that along the way.

How can you be so wrong at every turn?

It is Russia against 30 countries who have pledged to respect and defend the sovereingty of friendly and peaceful nations and who have rallied to aid Ukraine who applied for memebership into NATO from well founded fear of Russia’s intention to recreate the USSR.

What that has to do with Jan 6th is a mystery . You have been reported for off-topic posting.

See post 13 in response to CC4 request for something worthwhile in relation to Jan 6th insurrection.

Your offering had nothing to do with Jan 6th . We indulged you, but thread is no longer about anything to do with Jan 6th.

So let us try to get back on topic, ok?
