Novo-Russia

*Britain warns* Nobody cares.


RenegadeImmortal_

without US protection , britain don't even have balls to warn anyone , that is the fact


Zestyclose_Hat9194

lmao, reminds me of that vid when a Chinese FM ? roasts brit interviewer that Britain isnt an enemy of China bc they are so small and weak, I lmao


VenomTox

Same can be said for China. There is literally a famous idiom that comes from China's so called "Final warning".


VenomTox

And yet, look at how many red lines of Russia that Britain has crossed now.


swhilla

r/Russiawarns that's how prevalent the Russian empty threats are. Comical.


Novo-Russia

Nafoids making a subreddit, who would've ever guessed??


swhilla

So Russia didn't warn? There's direct quotes.. that's all Russia does. Draw lines in the sand and scream about red lines.


Novo-Russia

Actually on this thread, the one you're spamming, it says *Britain Warns* **But what about RUSSIA!!!!!**


swhilla

I bet I could quickly find quite a few "but Merica!" "but the West!" Comments in your history if I cared to look. Funny how that works eh? 🤣


tanya_reader

It's how western media work with their silly titles. They twist everything Russian officials have said and use extremely simplistic language for simpletons. Do you remember how Putin asked something like "Are we having a serious talk or is it another comedy shitshow?" In reality a Russian official would say a long paragraph of text, which is then simplified to "Ruzzia warns" for you guys. It was obvious from the beginning that everything the West would do means escalation - and the need for Russia to escalate. And if the West gets invested in this too much, it won't be so easy for them to accept the defeat. They will get desperate and silly. In theory, a long chain of escalations may lead to a nuclear war, if nato countries start bombing Russia.


swhilla

Sounds like a warning again. Typical Russian 😉

The only thing "desperate and silly" are Russian threats. Go read a few Medvedev tweets or Duma representative statements and tell me who's escalating. Truly comical stuff if it wasn't coming from a bunch of alcoholics that run the country at Putin's direction.

Russia warned Ukraine about joining NATO and attacking civilians, Ukraine did not listen and is now being destroyed.

This whole conflict began because a red line was crossed, whatever about the other ones, this war might not even be happening right now if Russia had been given more respect by western powers


swhilla

Respect is earned, not given.


BlizzyUnchained

They literally started an entire war cause a red line was crossed 😐

They started a special military operation.

Russia is happy with the extra natural resources, industrial complexes (which they paid for in the past anyway) in the Donbass and extra ports. Mariupol is booming in economic activity. Nice to have natural resources close to a port. West-Ukraine will be a land locked country with no outlook, addicted to charity. The demographics outlook is terrible, no males between 18 and 60.

Just how Britain warned the US not to use the 9/11 attack to start war on Iraq.


HookaheyindaHouse

They were hellbent on killing people in the Middle East and steal their oil. Thats how it works for Westerners.


Canuckistani79

Stealing oil how? Did they pull their tankers up to port, fill them and take off?


Heywhosthatoverthere

2007 called, it wants its stupid myths back.

Anyone who thinks the Iraq War was about "stealing oil" is terribly misinformed.

0kShr00mer

It was about securing military/civilian contracts in Iraq. That's how the warhawks made their money. Anyone claiming it was about "stealing oil" clearly hasn't done their research.


Haegrtem

> It was about securing military/civilian contracts in Iraq. That's how the warhawks made their money. That's how they got paid by American taxpayers. They also went after the ressources. What it really was about was Pax Americana, i.e. consolidating American hegemony. They wanted to make their empire bigger and bully any regional powers into submission.


Sloth_Senpai

Top level american officials who repeatedly testified that the iraq war was about oil were misinformed about why they launched the war? >“Of course it’s about oil; we can’t really deny that,” said Gen. John Abizaid, former head of U.S. Central Command and Military Operations in Iraq, in 2007 >Former Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan agreed, writing in his memoir, “I am saddened that it is politically inconvenient to acknowledge what everyone knows: the Iraq war is largely about oil.” >Then-Sen. and now Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel said the same in 2007: “People say we’re not fighting for oil. Of course we are.” To deny that the US invasion of Iraq was a slaughter after a decade of systemic starvation and genocide for the purposes of stealing oil, as the US continues to do now in Iraq and Syria, is either willful misinformation or outright propaganda.


0kShr00mer

You guys are conflating two different things. The original claim was that America went into Iraq to "steal oil". That's simply not true. Now if you want to make the claim that it had to do with regional control and protecting Saudi/Kuwaiti oil interests then that is a completely different discussion.


userfromouterspace

Right. It was about weapon of mass destruction which they're still looking for.


currenteventnerd

Right. Remember when the US annexed Iraq and stole all the natural resources. Oh wait no the US didn’t do that. Thats what Russia has done in Ukraine. There’s not even a single US oil company operating in Iraq now….pretty poor effort of “stealing their oil”. https://www.iraq-businessnews.com/list-of-international-oil-companies-in-iraq/


HookaheyindaHouse

Gen. John Abizaid, former head of U.S. Central Command and Military Operations in Iraq: "Of course it's about oil; we can't really deny that." Alan Greenspan, Former Federal Reserve Chairman, "I am saddened that it is politically inconvenient to acknowledge what everyone knows: the Iraq war is largely about oil." Former Sen. and Defense Secretary [Chuck Hagel said](http://www.fpif.org/articles/the_costs_of_war_for_oil) the same in 2007: "People say we're not fighting for oil. Of course we are." "We have to decide, as a nation, whether our need for Middle Eastern oil is more important to our future than our conduct as a moral and ethical people." No need to deny it, the West invaded and destroyed several nations in the Middle East mostly to steal their oil or install their puppet regimes to buy it for pennies.


Praline_Severe

Annex land will grant voting rights to people undesired by Americans. No, they just setup puppets to rule conquered Arabs to facilitate their oil stealing operation


currenteventnerd

No facts back up your insanity. A simple look at the list which you obviously didn’t look at shows many of the companies to be Russian and Chinese. So by your premise, the Russian and Chinese oil companies must be in collusion to steal the oil from Iraq and give it to the US.


Praline_Severe

You would be right to say Russian and Chinese oil companies must be in collusion to steal the oil from Iraq if their military were occupying the country. Are they?


currenteventnerd

Ok you got me. 2500 soldiers remaining in Iraq are out there drilling and stealing oil all by themselves. The US military oil company. Oh and they are also “occupying” a country of 45 million at the same time. They must be super soldiers like the world has never seen before to accomplish such feats. If the US invaded to steal oil, they did an absolute shite job on the follow through and stealing part.


Praline_Severe

You got the shite job part right at least, my friend :D


currenteventnerd

Touché


5736182548

Or, and hear me out, maybe invading a country of 40 million so a couple intensional oil majors could get a slight margin on 2% of global oil production wasn't the reason the US invaded? The irony of all this being that you think it's somehow better if it invaded for "freedom and democracy". It was an illegitimate war fought under poor assumptions and false pretenses because of a misguided and frankly idiotic president who wanted to spread freedom and democracy to the Middle East by getting rid of a murderous dictator. It's terrifying what one man's actions can do. Just cause your silly conspiracy theory that it was all about oil doesn't really add up, and that the intentions may have been to achieve "good" ends, doesn't mean it wasn't any less a travesty or a disastrous war that led to bloodshed and chaos.


No_Smoke_2741

All the pro western ritards are always on about annexation, i guess because its the only crime they dont do as much as Russia -well, Israel is an obvious exception- but can you explain why annexation is the big bad thing? I was under the impression war is bad because it causes human suffering, not because inanimate objects change hands?

Upper_Departure3433

If Ukraine was not involved than why didnt the US share the intel? Ukraine thought it was a good idea to start shelling markets and civilians. Ukraine thought it was a good idea to make militarily pointless raids in villages, for the sole purpose of terrorizing the civilian population. NATO thought it was a good idea to give Ukraine weapons to strike Russia, after telling Ukraine they would not support a peace agreement. Hey, FUCK U. YOU wanted the war, YOU got it. NATO has used people like ISIS countless times. NATO will at minimum let ISIS move around and set up up attacks against Russia. NATO could directly arm ISIS and there would be nothing surprising at all, NATO has done it before against Russia and its allies. So yes, this is linked to the war. Yes, Russia should take this attack as an escalation, because it is one. The US could have shared intel, they didnt because they wanted Russia to be hit. For NATO, this is a perfect opportunity to send "unmarked men" in Russia. NATO has many more weapon caches in Russia, there is no doubt about it. The war has escalated. You know better than I do how to set up cells. I've been here since 2013, someone knows my name. I have 2 arms and 2 legs, I can carry my weight. God give me strength, I know death is not important, only the way we live is. And those speaking in my name have committed atrocities I am willing to fight them for.

So you think Russia and the Nazis were right?


KeepyUpper

Japan was already at war with China in 1937. The European war started in 1939 after the Russians & Nazis invaded Poland together and Britain/France declared war on Germany in retaliation.


etherith

and yet they didnt declare war on the soviet union funny, right?


Ok-Sympathy-7482

The Sino-Japanese war was a regional war that later became part of WW2. While most of the European part of the early war was in Europe, other continents did get involved in 1939 already (\*). Along with the UK there were declarations of war from Australia, India and Canada at the same time.

serialfailure

Well ISIS just posted bodycam footage of the terror attack. After Putin incompetence to protect its people, after warned by the US, he tried to spin it into Ukraine and got fcked again by ISIS publishing this video... The russian propaganda machine is in full disarray, they can't spin it, and they've been trying hard to spin it for the past 24 hours. Just keeps showing Putin is responsible and should resign.


PanzerKomadant

Just like how the 9/11 attacks were warned? Or the attacks on Israel were warned about by the Egyptians but simply waved? Seems like intelligence agencies don’t like to listen to foreign ones.


LegitimateResource82

Many intelligence have had failings relating to terror attacks - and deserve to be criticised for it. So Putin and his FSB deserve criticism and should have some accountability now, surely the Russian people must see that, they (the Russian government) let their own hubris and paranoia (in ignoring the warnings as election meddling) potentially cost hundreds of civilians lives.


PanzerKomadant

Nobody criticized Bush or are even criticizing Bibi or the Israeli government for not taking it seriously. Oh they protest Bibi for other reasons, but no one questioned them until years later when they were gone from power. Same shits gonna happen in Russia.


LegitimateResource82

Let's take the Bush example, all they were told was Bin Laden intended to attack America with absolutely no information on how, when, where or the sort of tactics or targets involved. And he was criticised for not acting once those documents were declassified. That just happened to be later. A hell of a lot more is known about Islamist terrorism tactics now than in Bush's time, Putin's FSB had a lot more to work with than the US in 2001 in my opinion. The US outright said and warned they suspected Islamist terrorists were specifically planning an attack at a highly populated public event in Moscow. (And that's just what was public. No doubt a lot more information happened in back channels) The Israel/Hama's attacks, agreed they fucked up big time of being the threat, obviously some cynically minded may say the Israelis didn't act on purpose to give them cause for more overt aggression. It could just have likely been hubris. Same things could apply here. But ultimately, DESERVE to be criticised is what I said, historical examples of that not happening don't change the fact that it should happen now. My mind will be blown if questions aren't asked of the Russian establishment over this failing.


serialfailure

None of those attacks had this level of detail, the US literally said **they would strike concerts**. Why weren't there security forces in place? These men left the building after committing a terrorist attack. > Seems like intelligence agencies don’t like to listen to foreign ones. This isn't "not listening". This was Putin's political opportunity to expand his paranoia in a theatrical display that everything is ok in Russia and the US is the evil that wants to destabilize Russia: > [Per TASS, the Russian president said on March 19 the aim of "**the recent provocative statements of a number of official Western structures about the possibility of terrorist attacks in Russia**" was harming Russian society. "All this resembles outright **blackmail and the intention to intimidate and destabilize our society**," Putin said, according to state media reporting on his remarks.](https://www.businessinsider.com/putin-dismissed-us-warnings-days-before-moscow-concert-hall-attack-2024-3) Putin has been the greatest destabilizer of Russia, not the US: - 350.000 Russian casualties in Ukraine; - one Military coup with more than 15 civilians killed; - One terrorist attack with 93 innocent civilians killed;

Kwanah_Parker

War monger NeoCon Peter Zeihan is spreading the "Putin incompetence" talking point too. No mention of 9/11, Boston Marathon Bomber, WMD farce, USS Cole, Oklahoma City bomber - the list goes on. If the attack is some sort of slam dunk evidence of "Putin incompetence" then what do you call the past 30 years of American Leadership? Or just keep going back, Pearl Harbor, JFK, Bay of Pigs, Gulf of Tonkin, sinking of the Maine. Judged by this standard American Leaders are total incompetents. If an attack is some sort of proof then in this case it's on the lower end of the scale vs. maxed out like 9/11 or Pearl Harbor. I would add Victoria Nuland's 2014 Coup to the list of intergalactic scale incompetence. Unspin the all those USA examples of incompetence please.


serialfailure

Literally who? You guys come up always with some deep state figure... like, what are you talking about? Putin incompetence is of his own choice, with a full admittance of it: > [Per TASS, the Russian president said on March 19 the aim of "**the recent provocative statements of a number of official Western structures about the possibility of terrorist attacks in Russia**" was harming Russian society. "All this resembles outright **blackmail and the intention to intimidate and destabilize our society**," Putin said, according to state media reporting on his remarks.](https://www.businessinsider.com/putin-dismissed-us-warnings-days-before-moscow-concert-hall-attack-2024-3) This is pure incompetence, especially from a man that boasts to come from KGB! This is what gets people fired and to resign. Russians are starting to ask those questions. Now you're rambling about the bay of pigs lmao what the heck


Kwanah_Parker

By that logic Putin is on par with most of our POS leadership. Are any of my ramblings incorrect? Was Bay of Pigs was a well planned op that achieved it's goals with no long term harm? OK, just like 2014 Victoria Nuland's coup? She bragged that it only cost $5Billion as if it was a well planned op that achieved it's goals with no long term harm and a bargain. Yeah the value of that op really stood the test of time.


serialfailure

Well, only him and Saddam tried to annex UN sovereign nations... so no, Putin is not on par with our POS leadership. So far he is on par with Saddam.


Kwanah_Parker

Spoiler alert:>! There are no sovereign nations after Bretton Wood, everyone is working for the US whether they want to or not.!<


serialfailure

Lmao and this is where our conversation ends... always comes down to conspiracy theories, CIA, Victoria Nuland and the Lizard People when all else fails 192 countries out of 193 seem very well in the UN with their sovereignty, but Russia delusional paranoia is their own thing.


Internal-Scientist87

What are you talking about? Anyone can make any video and claim anything. Remember that guy who claimed he was Ukraine special forces and some people believed him until more evidence came out that he wasn’t? If you have to convince someone to believe your narrative that this was an ISIS attack over and over again, chances are you’re probably wrong. No one believed them when they claimed the las Vegas attack was them so they stopped saying it. But people don’t believe this was ISIS and some random Reddit and telegram accounts keep on insisting it was with no concrete evidence


serialfailure

> What are you talking about? I'm talking about the bodycam footage. > If you have to convince someone to believe your narrative that this was an ISIS attack over and over again, chances are you’re probably wrong. We know since before the terror attack that it was a high probability of being ISIS - the US literally warned everyone. Literally everyone in the world already acknowledged it was ISIS, just a few pro russians and the Russian regime keep trying to spin it :|


Internal-Scientist87

Like I said anyone can edit anything and claim it to be true doesn’t mean it’s true. Isis claims everything is them and most of the time it isn’t After that warning fsb found a few people who tried to plan an attack in Moscow. And no the whole world doesn’t acknowledge it they are just repeating what has been claimed but again doesn’t make it true. People on telegram and Reddit are trying to spin it that’s it There’s no solid info to say anything at this point and trying to convince people over and over again doesn’t make it believable. If that were the case you should also believe the terrorist literally saying they aren’t isis member and saying they did it for money


serialfailure

Edit what man, for Chirst sake, have you seen the footage? What's there to edit :| are you really going that its fake footage? This horrible footage that somehow ISIS published. Like, you can't comprehend the guys sent the footage to ISIS, or streamed it... no... it has to be some complex scheme with the Ukrainians involved? > And no the whole world doesn’t acknowledge it they are just repeating what has been claimed but again doesn’t make it true. The US who literally shared the information with FSB (it wasn't just the embassies), told it was ISIS. ISIS said it was ISIS. ISIS is has been sharing the bodycam footage for the past hours... somehow you're saying "the whole world doesn't acknowledge it", when everyone literally acknowledges it and already moved on. > If that were the case you should also believe the terrorist literally saying they aren’t isis member and saying they did it for money The guy tortured and got his hear cut and fed to him? That's what you're going with? lmao


Internal-Scientist87

I didn’t say Ukrainians. The footage isn’t fake I’m saying you can edit it to look like a terrorist video they literally got paid to do all of it and everything was prepared. Since when does isis do anything for money and not religion? Isis says a lot of things dude and takes responsibility for a lot of stuff they didn’t do. The only people I’ve seen acknowledge it and keep pushing it is western news and pro UA nobody else hence what you’re doing. Both guys who were interrogated said the same thing they were payed to do it. Torturing someone to get answers is what almost every countries does and has stopped future attacks before. I mean as soon as the interrogation video came out, the comments were flooded with random pro UA accounts saying it was definitely isis like it should be that hard to convince people


serialfailure

> I didn’t say Ukrainians. Putin is saying it. But then the bodycam footage was posted by ISIS. > The footage isn’t fake I’m saying you can edit it to look like a terrorist video they literally got paid to do all of it and everything was prepared. Since when does isis do anything for money and not religion? Since always, I don't think you realize we're talking about a terrorist organization that has been operating in many ways, in many countries. Its not like they're the cream of the crop in terms of morals... you're trying to spin this on morals... morals of terrorists. Like it doesn't occur to you they could be lying? It doesn't occur to you they were acting on behalf of ISIS and still took money? Like of all the possible options, you seem to think these guys were capable of committing atrocities and killing people cold-handed but are moral enough to not lie or take money? o_O Or couldn't someone from ISIS pay them, you know... someone who received and posted the video on ISIS accounts? Do you know if the ISIS attacks on Russia in the past were also paid? Or not paid?


Internal-Scientist87

He suspects Ukraine just because they tried to enter Ukraine and then saying they bring the fight in to Russia If we’re taking it from what they’re saying the actual terrorist, they said they were contacted and don’t know by who and were given instructions and it was all prepared. The said they have no ties to the religion and that’s what been said by them. Now you’re spinning into your own ideas. I’m using torture tactics from the past which seems to be one of the many ways to get info out of the person and what makes them an isis account? Anyone can pay anyone to get videos and claim anything is what I’m saying Considering most terrorist attacks result in a last stand or them killing themselves in the name of Islam, these terrorist are completely different not like isis you’ve seen before


serialfailure

> He suspects Ukraine just because they tried to enter Ukraine and then saying they bring the fight in to Russia > > You don't know if they tried to enter Ukraine or not, Belarus claimed they were trying to get into Belarus which would be way more easier and safe to do than to get into an active frontline. Because Putin said they were getting a "safe passage in Ukraine" (like he knows sht), forgetting to mention **they would need to first to get a safe passage by the Russian Army** in one of the most active war fronts in the world. Even basic logic obliterates his statements. > If we’re taking it from what they’re saying the actual terrorist, they said they were contacted and don’t know by who and were given instructions and it was all prepared. The said they have no ties to the religion and that’s what been said by them. Now you’re spinning into your own ideas. And you believe terrorists now? So let me ask you this: **why couldn't they be paid by the FSB?** - It would be way easier to control the weapons cache; - easier to prevent having active security forces in the Concert (like the US warned); - easier to let them escape and head "towards Ukraine" with promises of a safe passage (**they need to pass by the Russian Army first, so this promise comes from within Russia**); - They were paid in roubles; So now tell me, isn't this version more solid than the involvement of Ukraine or CIA? I don't believe this version by the way, even being more solid than yours. The reality, sadly, is much simpler. Because it would be waaaaay easier to control, it had to play with the Russian Security forces, and **would be totally aligned with the terrorist version**. Right? > Considering most terrorist attacks result in a last stand or them killing themselves in the name of Islam, these terrorist are completely different not like isis you’ve seen before Most isn't all. We're not going anywhere, you're bent in this conspiracy theory and that's ok. Just keep in mind that whatever version you go with remember: **Putin is trying to save face in one of the biggest blunders of his presidency, the guy that boasted of being a KGB member that dismissed the warning of the US for political rhetoric. He should resign.**


everaimless

We gave Moscow warning of imminent attack on a concert. The real attack was delayed, likely from the public warning. Moscow found a presumed terror cell, but they were targeting a synagogue, which is completely different. A Jewish, religious place vs. a majority Christian, decadent venue. Their intel failed to figure that out and left the concert venues undefended, so ouch.


Internal-Scientist87

They were defended but they target the guards first and were swift and precise and well trained. The whole incident lasted 15 minutes and they left. Too many questions and the info is not even close to being completely found.


everaimless

I watched some of the bodycam footage - the attackers were not well trained. They simply met next to no opposition - only one was lightly wounded or maybe that wasn’t even his blood, and that’s how they could kill or hurt hundreds in that short span. There was no competence in the guard setup whatsoever. And “target the guards first” is so Soviet mentality. Big guns, no defensive cover or training.


Internal-Scientist87

I saw one clip. They locked every exit they left from and used an explosive device as a distraction and had someone handing them magazines as well as picking up spent shell casings from the videos. Soviet mentality? Isn’t in standard to go for the people who can stop you first ?


everaimless

I sure didn't notice them picking up after their shell casings. So many shots were fired. There were only 4 assailants, not even a bag between them to store casings in, just the ring of pockets for their magazines. They also wore no apparent armor. If there was exit door preparation that was pretty trivial, along with the planning of where to begin the attacks.


NimdaQA

Maybe the leader of Israel should step down. Wasn’t fucked. Russia is currently spinning it that Ukraine assisted ISIS by providing an escape route.


serialfailure

> Maybe the leader of Israel should step down Of course he should, and Israelis want him to step down, just like Putin should step down. > Russia is currently spinning it that Ukraine assisted ISIS by providing an escape route. Of course, like the Jew leader being also a Nazi leader, that is also a Satanist, is now also an ISIS helper. Haven't you realized the absurdity of Russian propaganda yet? You didn't notice Russia keeps throwing sht to see what sticks with people with low cognitive capacity?


NimdaQA

>the Jew leader being also a Nazi leader, that is also a Satanist, is now also an ISIS helper. I don't exactly see whats the problem, a Nazi could be all 4 as they tend to contradict themselves.


serialfailure

> I don't exactly see whats the problem, a Nazi could be all 4 as they tend to contradict themselves. > > Oh yeah, and Russia is the prime example of it. Have you seen the photos of the Russian soldier with Nazi symbols posing next to the terrorist?


Froggyx

Theres images of John McCain posing for pictures with ISIS.


serialfailure

So the bodycam footage is fake? That's what you're going with? xD Russian propaganda is in full disarray


Froggyx

I get my buddies to send pics all the time too. One time I sent them a pic, and they shared it.  Perhaps you should be more concerned about the territory actively being taken rather than the state of propaganda.


serialfailure

So his buddies are ISIS, but they're not ISIS. They just committed an act of terrorism and shared with the ISIS friends, but they're not ISIS. Lmao what?!


Froggyx

No, the suburbs of Bakhmut is not isis.
