  • Well, less Shahed drones also means Russia has to rely more on expensive ballistic missiles for the foreseeable future. Whether the balance tilts to Ukraine’s favour or Russia would require more in-depth research than I can perform.

    You’ll have to provide some sources when saying Ukraine is already bled dry. That’s not something I can accept at face value.

    I doubt Ukraine is looking for a simple ceasefire. And me saying until Ukraine is unwilling to fight does not mean until they are unable to defend themselves any longer.

    Obviously, there are competent people in the Ukrainian military that can determine when continuing the fight is more disadvantageous for the long term. That point has not been reached yet.


  • In what way would the Iran war benefit Russia outside of increasing the profit margin of their oil exports? Iran is now using up their supply of Shahed drones in the war, which means they would be less likely to have enough to sell to Russia. It just sounds like another blow to their ability to continue waging war against Ukraine.

    On the other hand, can Russia keep this up longer than Ukraine is willing to fight? Given that one side is protecting their own sovereignty while the other is doing it for the imperialistic ambitions of the few at the top, I’d say they can’t unless the EU or the US forces an end to the war. Even if you prove that they can, you still need to weigh this over the fact that giving Putin the land will only embolden him to continue his invasion after he rebuilds his army.



  • The west should’ve, but they didn’t. I never said the west did everything right while helping Ukraine, but you were suggesting that they should let Russia keep the territories that they stole, which is basically giving Putin what he wants.

    Remind me what happens the last time they conceded their territory to Putin? It definitely didn’t prevent them from invading again.

    Ukraine is not conquering Russian lands, so there is no “has it all” for them. It’s a fight to not let Putin steal their land. The fact that you’re equating the two sides really shows your lack of neutrality in this matter. Where you made your account is simply more proof of it.









  • This comment is why I can’t take you at your word when you say you’re against all civilian deaths.

    Not only do you not have any proof to give, which might be explainable by you not getting the chance to make such a comment just yet. But instead of simply explaining why and using this chance to call out Israel for their atrocities against civilians, you decided to focus on one part of the comment so you can avoid criticising Israel while claiming the moral high ground.

    This is a very typical Zionist tactic which is convincing me more and more that you are not arguing in good faith. I can still be wrong, but you’re not making it easy for me to trust you.



  • Do you classify them as an untrustworthy source when it doesn’t conform to your world view? I treat them as a source that I compare with other sources.

    Do you know how polls are made? 500 people is enough to get an insight into the trends inside a population. There are other factors that affect the accuracy more than having more people surveyed. You’re free to analyze their methodology and come up with an argument for why it invalidates the result.

    Like I said, they are more likely to have been Zionists than anti-Zionists, given the proof I’ve provided. Never did I claim they all are Zionists. I also never even claimed murdering civilians is a positive thing. All I did was disprove your claim that the anti-Zionists sentiment here are caused by antisemitism.

    Also, you avoided giving proof that you had made comments calling out Israel for killing civilians in multiple countries when the other guy asked for it, so forgive me for doubting your position that you are against all civilian death. The way you argue are far too reminiscent to the way Zionists do for me to take your word for it.
