There is a definite possibility that Lupi, bless his soul, may have been a victim of the 'drunk too much Kool-Aid' syndrome.

Possibly the Alex Jones flavour.

Not just his pro-Russian narratives but pretty much everything else.

I might agree with him on the odd subjective viewpoint here and there but he's a little off kilter when it comes to anything to do with what you might call 'Western values'....

The West being of course where I presume he resides....

I might be wrong!!

Interesting little ditty going on up the road in Asia....

Fighting continues on Thai-Cambodian border as world leaders call for peace

The bloodiest military battles in more than a decade between Thailand and Cambodia have reportedly killed at least 14 people — mostly civilians.

Little explainer from the Guardian....

www.theguardian.com

Why are Thailand and Cambodia engaged in a border conflict?

Territory mapped during France’s colonial rule is behind clash that has exposed tensions between the countries
www.theguardian.com www.theguardian.com

Seems to me that this conflict is like Canada attacking America. I mean this is not even close from a military standpoint. How does Cambodia even think it can somehow prevail? What is going on in Cambodia's thinking here? 🤔
 
I know I'll get absolutely castigated by almost everyone for saying so but I've always been one to fully support the right if Israel to exist. I support a peaceful, prosperous, secure, and free Israel without caveats.

I also support a peaceful, prosperous, secure, and free Palestine too. So basically a 'two state solution'...

I believe the greatest threat to peace and prosperity for both Israel and Palestine is extremism and terrorism.

And I fully support Israel's right to defend themselves against the horrific terrorist attack, the sadistic violence Hamas perpetrated on Oct. 7th, 2023, violating an existing cease-fire with the premeditated murder of approximately 1,200 people in Israel and seizing of 250 hostages.

It's something every country in the world would do as a matter of national obligation.

But the extent of human and physical destruction in Gaza far exceeds what I believe is militarily justifiable in seeking to eliminate Hamas as a threat to Israel. It feels more tied to a policy of vengeance born out of the trauma of Oct. 7th than a military strategy. It's cruelty on an industrial scale. The right to defend oneself has been long forgotten and overtaken by the compulsion to inflict genocidal retribution on the Palestinians.

Pretty much with you on all above.
 
I don’t really care about one state two state or what they do there. All I know is Israel are bloodthirsty and sadistic. It’s a genocide. Clear as day.

And they are devoid of critique. Speak out and they will go to any levels to destroy you. Unhinged.

True, they've been firing makeshift rockets into populated areas for decades now... But Oct 7th seems to be the straw that broke the camel's back rightly or wrongly.

Yes they have been firing rockets at people who defend themselves with stones

You’d have to have rocks in your head to not see it. They’re murdering children lining up for food

You can defend it. That’s up to you.

You should be more like the AEK boys in the stadium last night!

I think most people will agree with you.

But you're never going to say the same about Hamas who are just as bloodthirsty and just as sadistic. It's likely you're thinking Hamas are devoid of critique.
