Britain is a shell of its former punchy self. They have eroded their defenses to laughing stock status. They are consumed with Brexit and political correctness. They have a shadow PM who has been a communist tool for decades. The EU is consumed with swindling the English.
ReplyDeletePutin obviously saw the risks as in his favor. The EU and NATO are just a talk shop anyway on dealing with Russian aggression.
They may be this or may be that but they all agree that Russians making not nice...and Russia but a shell of what it once was
ReplyDeleteFred,
ReplyDeleteI would not say that Russia is a shell of what it once was (it really does not have a pleasant history). I would say .... it is different from what it once was.
I think Fred is referring to the Soviet Union juggernaut.

ReplyDeleteIf that dolt wasn't running the show they'd all be eating sauerkraut.

ReplyDeleteOf course you would not. You are not a native speaker and that has been apparent to many people for a long time.
People have literally posted me (taken me out behind the wood shed) and said do not feed the troll.
It is why I do not engage you often; you are a troll.
There are other reasons like for example you are our very own Lord Haw Haw.
