What a journey from McCarthyism to Trump
The irony 😆
Grown man , wife , kids , great job apparently
Spends his time posting cobblers about conspiracies on a football website that very few people read , arguing with students, tramps and the feckless
And gets upset when he's wrong
But you're not childish
It's the others ! Them outside the wall !
"dictator without elections"
"better move fast or he is not going to have a country left."
Trump further claimed that Zelensky had persuaded the U.S. to spend $350 billion on a war that "couldn't be won" and implied that Zelensky preferred to prolong the conflict to continue receiving U.S. financial support.
Remember when questioning the Ukraine narrative made you a Putin puppet followed by instant cancellation? How swiftly the winds of propaganda change.
As Trump and Putin edge toward peace, the architects of this costly adventure—Biden, NATO, and the military-industrial complex—find their carefully constructed house of cards collapsing.
Three years into a conflict that was never meant to end, we face a moment of reckoning. Biden's war—and yes, it was always his war, stretching back to the 2014 Maidan coup when his son mysteriously landed on Burisma's board—is finally running out of steam. Not because of Russian might or Ukrainian weakness, but because the American puppet master has changed.
Trump's blunt warning to Zelenskyy to "move fast" or lose everything isn't just political theatre—it's an admission of what critical voices have said from the start. This was never about democracy or sovereignty. It was about power, profit, and the perpetuation of American hegemony through proxy warfare.
When this war began Labour Heartlands published Jacques Baud, essay - it first appeared (in French) at the respected Centre Français de Recherche sur le Renseignement. A literal translation appeared in The Postal (April 1, 2022).
Here we are 3 years later Bauds initial narrative is now the official version.
Jacques Baud, a former Swiss intelligence colonel and NATO expert who worked directly with Ukraine after 2014. His credentials are impeccable: UN Peace Operations Policy Chief, trained by American and British intelligence services, architect of the UN's first multidimensional intelligence unit. When he speaks, we should listen.
Baud exposes the fundamental lie at the heart of this conflict.
Now, as Europe's hawks find themselves excluded from peace talks, the truth emerges: billions wasted, thousands dead, and for what? So defence contractors could post record profits? So BlackRock could position itself to "rebuild" Ukraine? So Biden could play at being a wartime president?
The military-industrial complex's iron grip on our foreign policy is finally loosening—not through any democratic awakening, but through the cruel irony of Trump's isolationism serving peace better than liberal interventionism.
As we watch this deadly farce reach its endgame, remember: those who called for negotiation from the start were silenced, smeared, and labelled Putin apologists. Now, their warnings look like prophecy.
The question isn't whether peace will come—it will, because Trump demands it—but whether we'll learn anything from this expensive lesson in how the permanent war machine operates. When the next manufactured crisis appears on the horizon, will we remember how easily truth becomes the first casualty of war?

4 percent of Ukraine support Zelensky according to Mr Orange
56 percent according to Polls today in Ukraine
I am siding with the far from perfect but definitely dignified Zelensky
I suppose the only way to know how the population feels is when the peace process has concluded. If Zalenskyy remains in power when the next election is called then that would mean he is the right choice.
Same could be said for Putin ( if that ever happens ):sherlock:
You think they have fair, democratic elections in Russia?
Kyiv International Institute of Sociology is the source of the latest poll - measuring trust rather than support (although doubt there is a difference between the two):
https://www.kiis.com.ua/?lang=eng&ca...id=1496&page=1
The 4% support figure seems to have originated in an anti-Zelenskyy telegram channel where a small and hostile group of subscribers were asked if they trusted/supported him. That was picked up by Russia and amplified. It was then repeated and given the megaphone treatment by Trump.
It was like asking members of the English Defence League if they support Black Lives Matters!
Good to see Starmer at least showing some front to the orange idiot with that phone call to Zelensky
they had a presidential election last year - Putin won with 88% of the vote.
Putin got the constitution changed to allow him to stand at the election as he'd already won 2 terms previously.
Putin's major opponent Boris Nadezhdin who was standing on an anti war ticket was conveniently barred from standing due to "irregularities".
He got off lightly though as previous opponents have been arrested or killed.
Some big brain American Russian sympathisers, sound like a few people who frequent this forum.
