    Translation: we will continue to give Ukraine stuff of limited utility which might let them hold out a bit longer, while we hold back the stuff they really need and have asked for.

    I wish they would stop with hyping up what assistance is being provided. According to the Russians, they destroyed another S300 system at an airfield in the approximate middle of Ukraine, while just a day or two earlier, it was really big news that Slovakia had provided a single S300 system. Which is wonderful, but if they are losing them at the rate the are getting them, it's not good overall.

    Edit: It appears the Orcs were lying about having destroyed the S300 and it was supposed to have been the Slovak one.

    Ffs, pity we didn't get wind of this. I would have travelled up to Howth. A counter demonstration would be some craic. That miniscule convoy wouldn't last long.

    I'd love to know who that **** in the Jeep is with the Z symbols. Not just a letter as some claim, It's a symbol that will live through the history books and be associated with the atrocities. I'm sure it strikes the fear of God into many Ukrainians as they see it turn onto their street not knowing the level of destruction and death that is about to befall them.

    The fella she's addressing here you can visually see his anger he had to get up and walk away.

    I hope there's someone else coming in to take her out in the next election. The woman and her funny haired side kick are a daily embarrassment to the nation.

    The arrogance of aloof Socialist MPs who remember the horror of Soviet Russia and the brutal threat and reality of Russia on the door stop.

    What a totally dumb cnut. What does she want the Ukrainians to do, surrender and become part of Russia? Then Putin says I want Poland or I'll nuke Warsaw. So we give them Poland. Then I want Germany or I'll nuke Berlin. The problem with this cnut is she read some books by academics and she thinks she knows how the world works and how to fix it. How naive. There's a lot more to the world than the little socialist fantasy floating round in her tiny head.

    Those dictionaries with photos to help make definitions were popular for a while. If there were such a thing as video dictionaries I'm pretty sure I know what word that video would appear under.

    That's exactly what they want.

    People like her (assuming she doesn't know she's a Russian agent) swallow particular things hook, line and sinker. Just see their reaction when the Brits or Yanks do something wrong, they jump straight on it and (rightly) condemn it. But when it's Russia, well, fighting back against them is warmongering.

    My dial which indicates how much of a knob I think Clare Daly is has been red lining for a while now. I hope the likes of Mairead Mcguinness are saying more sensible things so that other European countries don't think Daly's views represent us.

    The first comment is quite brilliant and apt.

    Nonsense, as we are so often reminded around these parts, diversity is both a strength and blessing, the more new Irish we have brought in from dystopian shitholes that still owe their allegiance to said shithole, the more enriched we shall be. Just wait till it kicks off with the Chinese. Fun times ahead.

    Back in reality, these fuckers should be hauled in and told they're now deported then chucked over the wall of the Russian embassy for their own government to mind. Just imagine, the likes of shatter and mcentee probably handed some of the ****s Irish passports after they collected a few weetabix tokens.

    In one of the replies on Twitter to one of the above links was this little gem.

    The crude analogy as to what she is implying is that if someone wants to rape you to not fight back, let it happen so as to not antagonise your attacker further.

    That's how batshıt crazy that speech was.



  • Registered Users Posts: 3,747 ✭✭✭zv2


    It is ranting socialists like her who enabled Russia to become what it is today.

    My dial spun so hard it came off and went through the ceiling. Although Wallace, the tax-cheating, pension-stealing, millionaire wine estate-owning 'socialist man of the people' annoys me even more. Hopefully he meets some real Ukrainians (ideally the Klitschko brothers) down a dark alley sometime.



  • Posts: 25,611 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Yup, I genuinely was on the way back to the thread to make that exact analogy. It's one further though, she's arguing from the position of someone watching a rape and berating the victim for not negotiating.

    It's all fine and well banging on about talking and resolving without violence, but what if one of the parties involved is intent on getting what they want by violent means only? Because, that's what's happening. Do we just let them steamroll through Eastern Europe and hope that our idealism of peace makes them change their way?

    The practicality of it as you say is that there are far poorer EU countries doing more and taking in more than us.

    Mostly because they'e literally next door to this disaster, and yes it'll hit them even harder.

    In your analogy the cold light of the next day you'd still have done the right thing and be working to get your neighbour back on their feet.

    I doubt you'd be on your deathbed worrying about the time you helped them out. You could rest easy that you did .

    Which is all warm and gooey, but that's mostly what it is. How do you get your neighbours back on their feet if you don't have the room and money's already tight for you? How's that work then?

    The cynic in me thinks maybe we should have done an Irish version of what the Brits did; give them all the weapons in the Curragh, but only allow 2000 refugees in with visas and health checks, don't give them full social welfare and medical cards and give a few quid monthly to their hosts. Maybe send Coveney over for a photo op. Zelensky seems only too happy to give London the nod for doing that, even though the same London has been washing Russian dirty money for decades while the same Russian dirty money was bankrolling a load of thier politicians. Ireland gets a "could do better" from the same Zelensky.

    Even the USSR flag. Pretty much Putin agents one and all.

    We all know how to contact Clare Daly and Mick Wallace. So email or write to them or phone them if you can and tell them just how far off the f***ing radar they are in terms of the opinions of the people they represent. Is there a mechanism for removing elected MEPs?

    The reviews are on fire here- I guess the benefits of our liberal democracy do work both ways some times. He’ll regret this in his pocket, Clane and even Ireland are very small places, word spreads like wildfire



  • Registered Users Posts: 4,884 ✭✭✭fly_agaric


    It is rubbish really. Don't pay much attention to their (Daly & Wallace's) nonsense as would never vote for likes of them. Knew for a while about their suspect views on autocrats in general, esp. as regards the CCP (once they oppose and work to destroy the US & possibly the EU too, they are on the side of the angels + to be praised apparently). Herself and Wallace have surpassed themselves during this war in being useful to Russia. I really want to see OLAF get stuck into their affairs and hope there is something there to hang them (petty I suppose, but...?!).

    Maybe the Russians don't have to do a pincer movement CHBS? If they seem to have the bits in purple and can do the same to the bits in red, that would give putin his pecker extension exercise for the May great patriotic war parade. OK, clearly he wanted and expected more, Kyiv with puppet government over the whole nation, second prize being all things east of the Dnieper, third prize being the bits in red and purple above.

    He could spin that BS to his brainwashed subjects as a "victory". If he can hold it he could put any talks on the long finger, as he gives two shíts about the Russian people suffering under sanctions and he's primed them for it for over a decade anyway. Ukraine would then need to go on the attack to win those areas back. They've been truly inspiring in defence, but without NATO I can't see them taking that much land back in attack. It could be a continuation of the dug in Donbass conflict that's raged since 2014 and Ukraine has lost a load of territory to a facist invader.

    On the other hand, if this does play out this way, the EU must go into and help rebuild non Russian Ukraine. Get them on the road to EU membership. Never trust Russia again. Never lift the sanctions and I'd increase them as we wean ourselves off their blood soaked gas and oil and dirty money. And I never thought I's say this; close all Russian embassies with EU countries and close all ours in Russia and have a single one in Brussels and one in Moscow that covers all the EU.

    I just dont get it. How could you, in a democratic Republic, actually support a madman who's army is murdering innocent men, women and children.

    It's insane.
