This isn't going to end well for Ukraine and Russia if this continues on the same course.

Rattrapper aka Mystere: This isn't going to end well for Ukraine and Russia if this continues on the same course.

No "LOL" at the end of your comment? I should take that it's implied?

Rattrapper said...

If Russia and Ukraine keep poking the bears, they will end up destroying themselves.

Rattrapper said...

Be careful what you laugh about, Dervish.

It won't last long once the US turns off the $$$ and arms spigot.

Les Carpenter said...

Yeah, so Putin, tRump's bromance guy can do to Ukraine what the Zionist Genocidal Butcher Nettyboy has done to Gaza.

And you guys are loving the butchering and destruction of innocent human life.

We didn't start either conflict... YOU did. Looking for someone to blame, the UniParty needs to look in the mirror.

Joe Conservative said...

ps - Let me know when NATO reaches the Pacific ocean.

Les Carpenter said...

I started NOTHTING. But the MIC needs its banquets.

Hence the great support (yours) for the Zionist Genocidal Butcher Nettyboy who enjoys murdering innocent Palestinian children and women.

You are an embarrassment to decency.

Joe Conservative said...

Biden gave the MIC carte blanche... so yeah, it was you.

Les Carpenter said...

F you.

Hey Nursie PooPoo, you really better be careful about what you cluck out of your beak. Have you not read about karma? Your dead god buddha warns about hoe it comes back badly. Your fake dead god buddha's karma sent him to Fire Lake after he left his carcass behind.

Your anti Semitic clicking reached the High Courts of Heaven, Nursie PooPoo. And it's not going to end well for you when you finally take your dirt nap. Your boy Adolfo Hitlero hangs off a meat hook for attacking and butchering Jews.

Les Carpenter said...

Hey rat man from the sewer of MAGA filth, if you think for a moment I give a shit about your heaven or your flowing bullshit ya got another think coming. So slither off to your dumg heap and eat shit.

Joe Conservative said...

Trump's giving Democrats and the Deep State their Karma up the ass.

Les Carpenter said...

Whatever tinfoil man.

Joe Conservative said...

Les Carpenter said...

Joe Conservative said...

Les Carpenter said...

I'm fine with my karma. Hope you enjoyed your enema.

Joe Conservative said...

Minus: We didn't start either conflict... YOU did. Looking for someone to blame, the UniParty needs to look in the mirror. Trump's giving Democrats and the Deep State their Karma up the ass.

donald trump gave the green light to both the Gaza genocide and Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Karma has yet to bite donald trump in the ass. He certainly is due. The Epstein scandal might be his downfall. That he is squeaky clean in regards to Epstein is clearly not the case.

Les Carpenter said...

The Zionist Genocidal Butcher Nettyboy and Vlad the Bad Putin the green light encouragement did the shit FOTUS gladly give.

Disaster and destruction follow the malignant narcissist felon like a cat chasing its tail.

As the ignorant lying FOTUS eyes imposing marshal law on blue cities the spectre of Trump Tyranny grows darker and more sinister.

The era of disruption, decline, chaos, dishonesty, deceit, greed, and corruption the FOTUS did usher in.

And MAGA, the greatest lie ever told, will ultimately die an ignoble death as the nation collapses under its destructive power.

Joe Conservative said...

Joe Biden cheered the Pseudostinians on to attack Israel on Oct 7. Joe Biden cheered the Ukrainians on as they shelled the Donbass with artillery so heavily that the Russians had to intervene and stop them. The Democratic Party is the WAR Party. DJT has ended 6 WARS in 6 months, and will soon end 2 more.

Joe Conservative said...

You just hate Trump because he ENDS wars instead of starting them. The Democratic Party is the party of the MIC and race essentialism, the founding principle of the anti-white neoracists.

Les Carpenter said...

He has NOT ended a single fucking war and he's not going to. He does not have the power OR will to do so.

And he loving his Zionist Butcher Nettyboy's genocide in Gaza.

You're merely repeating the BS your lying asshole prez tells you to repeat. And like a blind whitte goid boy you do.

Joe Conservative said...

MSNBC is lying to me?

The Prophet Dervish Z Sanders said...

Via Copilot...

Here's what the evidence shows...

🧠 Did Biden Lay the Groundwork?

Yes. During his presidency, Joe Biden actively pursued peace negotiations between Armenia and Azerbaijan...

In October 2024, Biden sent personal letters to both leaders urging them to finalize a peace agreement before year’s end.

His administration offered “bold initiatives” to support the process, including economic incentives and diplomatic backing.

Senior National Security Council official Michael Carpenter met with both Ilham Aliyev and Nikol Pashinyan to advance talks.

However, those efforts stalled over key issues—especially Azerbaijan’s demand that Armenia amend its constitution to remove references to Nagorno-Karabakh.

🧨 Trump’s Role in 2025.

Donald Trump hosted the signing ceremony at the White House in August 2025, where both leaders agreed to a joint declaration...

Trump emphasized that previous efforts had failed, including Biden’s, which he mocked as “trying for 12 minutes”.

The deal includes the creation of the Trump Route for International Peace and Prosperity, a transit corridor linking Azerbaijan to Nakhchivan through Armenia.

Trump claimed the countries would “stop all fighting forever” and become “friends forever”—a bold rhetorical flourish, not a legally binding guarantee.

🧩 So Who Deserves Credit?

Biden’s administration laid diplomatic groundwork and pushed for resolution, but did not secure a final agreement.

Trump’s administration closed the deal and hosted the summit, giving him a legitimate claim to having brokered the peace.

That said, Trump’s framing—suggesting he singlehandedly resolved a decades-long conflict—is politically theatrical. The reality is more complex: Biden’s efforts helped shape the conditions, but Trump capitalized on the moment.

The Prophet Dervish Z Sanders said...

MSNBC didn't lie. They aired a newsworthy event. Which might end a war. You're lying by giving trump complete credit and chalking it up as a victory when the peace agreement could fall through.

Via Copilot...

This deal is more symbolic than structural. Without constitutional reform, international guarantees, and grassroots reconciliation, it risks becoming another diplomatic photo op rather than a durable peace.
