Ask Putin, he used "uni-polar."

Give an example of at least two revisionist and two example of revanchist speeches by Putin. I can can read Russian so you can post the original speech and give examples. Thank you


Ok here are some:

Beginning with his revanchist Munich speech in 2007, declaring his intent to oppose the west as he saw it, and its legacy (including a list of grievances about threats from NATO the aggressive “Anglo-Saxons).

The March 1, 2018 revanchist annual address again complaining of grievances, real and imagined, where he rattles his sabres as gracefully as though he was pounding his shoe on a lectern.

Putin's revanchist and revisionist July 2021 paper titled, ‘On the historical unity of Russians and Ukrainians.' Almost as imaginary as the Nazi Aryan propaganda falsehoods.

The similarly imaginative, revanchist, and revisionist "Address concerning the events in Ukraine" from Feb 2021.

There. I have listed several examples. You don't have to like them, you don't have to agree, we know you won't and it doesn't matter because I think we understand that for some reason you can't agree with even obvious admissions by Putin. That's OK, we all have our blind spots and our biases.

When the US invaded Iraq twice without cause ( for oil) and killed over 500,000 were we trying to establish a loving uni polar relationship with carrots or sticks? lol

How many carrots did we drop on Vietnam after we invaded for no reason during that Long war?

How about when we invaded Somalia twice? Afghanistan? We sure gave them a lot of carrots lol

How are American carrots working in Syria now? Do they now love Americans?

Why did the US build over two dozen bio weapon labs on Russia's border. Our Sect of State Newland admitted this under oath recently. Were we making carrots in those wmd labs?

So the above are your reasons why Putin invaded Ukraine? Based on Putin's use of Novichok to assassinate people in the UK and elsewhere, he will not be heard to whine about biolabs, real or imagined. He has no moral high ground whatsoever, none, given his behavior.

ribka, given your fear of "globohomo" Western corruption, your telling us that you have been in the areas of the former USSR, that you can read Russian, and your appreciation for Chechnya, Belarus, and Minsk, why are you here in the USA? Why are you not in Russia, with their great economy and morals and family values etc? That's a sincere question. You come across as a Russophile, so why are you here?
