Ukraine Crisis

[Idolater]

... Then I wake up and it turns out the media was greatly exaggerating what was taking place.

What media? And what were they exaggerating?

The reliable news media, WSJ, NYT, FT, AP and Reuters were reporting Russia invaded Ukraine. There was and is no exaggeration in Russia belligerently invading Ukraine. That, happened. That, is still happening. There isn't any exaggeration here, there's nothing to "wake up" to, unfortunately. The Russians invaded Ukraine, and the Russians are still invading Ukraine.

That the plant was never in serious danger.

Yet the Russians are really still invading Ukraine. Russia still has glass-crater-makers, big ones, and so they are unilaterally putting many of the cities of the world in particular, closer to being directly in harm's way, since the Russian crater-makers can be shot with rockets to land anywhere on earth in a matter of minutes. So we can't risk provoking them to do that, since we can't defend ourselves against that, and we can't currently assassinate Putin the Idiot and all his top lieutenants and all their top lieutenants, which is really what you'd have to do to make a reasonable successful decapitation attempt without bringing about glass craters.

And I sat silent, for a few seconds, and realized that I had been had.

Russia is invading Ukraine. It's not 'being had' to believe that.

In the fog of war, it’s ...

Russia invading Ukraine unilaterally, belligerently, aggressively, unprovoked, unjustified, not even a clever pretext. Just lies; they're just lying, can't stop lying, ever since we 'caught them swimming naked' by distributing all the satellite imagery of them amassing troops, materiel and guns all around Ukraine on three sides (Belarus to the north was also being armed). They lied through their stupid Russian teeth all along and invaded Ukraine and are still invading Ukraine.

Is it also hyperbole, your vote to give homosexuals the death penalty?

@ok doser feels so strongly about murdering homosexuals that he voted "yes" at least 3 times under separate accounts: resodko, ok doser, and some other dude. What was that Shakespeare wrote about people who protest too much?

Someone should check @ok doser's closet. I suspect they'd find a few skeletons in there.

Being the world police for a little while was too expensive, it's not that it's morally wrong to go into Vietnam to fight the forces of evil, it's that it's irresponsible because it's too expensive.

Being the world police is morally wrong because God says it's morally wrong. In Deuteronomy 17:16, God forbade kings from "multiplying horses." Multiplying horses was for the purpose of transporting armies and equipment to distant nations to conduct foreign wars.

Christians have a responsibility to say and do what they can to resist mothers killing their babies in abortions. Likewise, Christians had a responsibility to say and do what they could to stop Hitler from murdering Jews.

As a Christian, nobody can tell me to kill another man, and expect me to obey.

If someone tells you to kill another human don't listen to them. But if you cannot pull the trigger on another human for any reason then do not join the military or a police force.

My uncle graduated from Rice University and was a naval officer in WW2. He left instructions with his mother (my grandma) that if anything happened to him she would send a portion of the survivor benefits from his death to the poor people in the South Pacific for the purpose of spreading the gospel there. She consequently supported missionaries all over the South Pacific for the next 30 years. After Grandma died I began supporting missionaries there.

I am not a citizen of this world and am not just focused just on America. I am a citizen of heaven and my duty is to go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature.

I just don't agree with that interpretation. Violating God given rights is immoral. "The sword" should punish rights violators.

I understand what you think Deuteronomy 17:16 does not mean. What do you think it does mean?

Supporting missionaries overseas does not violate Deuteronomy 17:16. Sending a military army would.

It's Old Covenant, aka Old Testament, aka "the Law," aka the Law of Moses, aka the Torah, etc. I don't think it's really written to anyone but the people who were a party to that covenant.

I don't agree. God said the Jewish king should not multiply horses to himself nor return to Egypt. That is not to be misunderstood as a message from God to Roosevelt not to go to war with Japan for bombing Pearl Harbor.

Is there any corroboration? I mean considering the source that's obviously possibly propaganda.

Propaganda? It's called a war. Did you expect the Russians to invade with sweetness and light?

Pentagon admits to funding and working 46 bioweapons labs in Ukraine. Says all 46 labs were defensive labs. Big surprise! The Pentagon says all US weaponry is classified as defensive until it is used offensively.

Do you think if Russia had 46 bioweapons labs in Mexico and classified them as defensive the US would just yawn and say it is no big deal? Or do you think the US would invade Mexico to take out those defensive bioweapons labs?

Pentagon Clarifies, No "Offensive" Biologic Weapons in Ukraine Bio-Labs Where U.S. Defense Dept Was Working - The Last Refuge

Every time the U.S. government attempts to clarify the biolabs in Ukraine, they end up making things less clear. In the most recent example, Deborah Rosenbaum, the assistant secretary of defense for nuclear, chemical, and biological defense programs, told the House subcommittee on Intelligence...
