| 1. Author: OzPar Date: Tue 10th Jun 2025. 07:09 It appears that Zelensky will be leaving Ukraine very soon. Trump has publicly withdrawn his support, and Putin is looking to take revenge after the recent raids on airbases and trains deep into Russia. Whether Zelensky is taken out internally in a coup or is the subject of violent mischief at the hands of the Russians, who knows?. But for sure, his days are numbered. European support for Zelensky will not be enough to save him. Likely, his only survivable option is to make a very swift escape to one of his several luxurious boltholes overseas. For corruption was his middle name - he is reputed to have got a cut from every weapons deal. At least Zelensky`s departure should hasten the end of a bloody conflict that could have ended more than a year ago, when it was clear Ukraine had lost. By delaying the inevitable, Zelensky, Biden, and the European allies sacrificed more than a million lives unnecessarily. Reply |

| 3. Author: widtink Date: Tue 10th Jun 2025. 07:56 There are 49 milion kangaroos in Australia and 3.5 million people in Uruguay which means if the kangaroos were to invade Uruguay, each person would have to fight 14 kangaroos. Makes you think eh 🤔 Admin  Reply |
| 4. Author: OzPar Date: Tue 10th Jun 2025. 08:03 I am less fearful of China than I am of America right now. And, to be frank, I wouldn`t want to be in Ipswich right now. You have an awful lot of American air bases near you. Reply |
| 5. Author: ipswichpar Date: Tue 10th Jun 2025. 08:24 Well if two is an awful lot so be it. At least we don`t have dodgy spiders and snakes. Perhaps Zelensky can move here to his large Suffolk country home. It`ll make it easier for Mad Vlad to hit the bullseye. Reply |
| 6. Author: Dave_1885 Date: Tue 10th Jun 2025. 08:52 Trump cant control his own citizens anymore and Putin has taken 3 years and gained about 1 mile closer to Kyiv than he did when he invaded……. I think if America pulls its support, the rest of NATO will stand together and begin to fight back - and the Russians, on current viewing, wouldnt stand a chance - unless mad Vlad decides to launch nukes.

| 8. Author: OzPar Date: Tue 10th Jun 2025. 09:40 Aye, but Uruguay, home of Fray Bentos, if I am not mistaken, is the global centre of the cattle industry. Their plentiful supply of bulls and Angus coos would see off our scrawny roos pretty sharpish, methinks... :) Reply |
| 9. Author: DunfyDave Date: Tue 10th Jun 2025. 10:20 OzPar, Tue 10 Jun 07:09 ^^^ Oz !! You are normally more diplomatic than this. You may take your freedoms for granted but Ukraine is fighting for theirs. They did this necessarily, not unnecessarily in my opinion because they were bloody well attacked and invaded by a dictator that guaranteed their very security by conning them to surrender their nuclear arsenal. Of course war is bad and far too many people have died but sometimes, just sometimes there are no alternatives and you just have to stand-up to a bully and defend yourself. DunfyDave Reply |
| 10. Author: OzPar Date: Tue 10th Jun 2025. 10:49 We view this from very different angles, DunfyDave. You see Russia as the bully here. It is certainly not blameless. However, I would argue that NATO and the US are equally guilty. This war is multidimensional, there are no good guys, and it began long before 2022. Reply |
| 11. Author: jake89 Date: Tue 10th Jun 2025. 15:09 OzPar, Tue 10 Jun 09:40 It`s where Fray Bentos the city is. Fray Bentos the meat pies are made in Scotland. So they maybe have plenty cows while ours are going into tinned pies. Reply |
| 12. Author: DunfyDave Date: Tue 10th Jun 2025. 18:54 OzPar, Tue 10 Jun 10:49 ^^^ And I agree Oz, your argument is plausible but surely not "equal". I am aware of the "assurances" that were given to Russia about NATO expansion concerning Ukraine by the USA but a lot has changed since then. Russia has resorted back to "Cold War" shenanigans. But let`s not lose sight of the most important fact in this debate, "Ukraine is a sovereign nation" and free to make decisions how they seem fit and if they wish to have closer ties to the West and submit an application for NATO membership then who the hell is Russia to counter this? Ukraine wanted EU and/or NATO membership for a valid reason - Protection from the Russian threat that eventually came true. How would they feel if we intervened in their sovereign decisions? How would the UK feel if Russia intervened in our sovereign decisions? I wonder how Trump would react to Putin interfering with US sovereignty? The USA do share some of the blame for NATO expansion and breaking a promise to Russia but the majority of the blame for invading Ukraine lies mainly with Russia.

| 13. Author: The One Who Knocks Date: Tue 10th Jun 2025. 20:27 I think we can file this under Oz`s other claims such as a couple of years back when he stated Ukrainian collapse was imminent, George Galloway was set to become the most influential politician in the UK and Israel was about to annihilated by Iran and their proxies. And although my eyes were open They just might as well be closed Reply |
| 14. Author: OzPar Date: Wed 11th Jun 2025. 10:11 Ahhh TOWK! I have long realised that you are an ardent apologist for the Zionists, so I tend to couch my responses to you armed with that knowledge. Anything I write about Palestine and Israel seems to be swiftly dismissed by you. You often quote my remarks about Ukraine`s defeat, George Galloway`s influence, and the likelihood of Iran annihilating Israel if the push comes to shove. You know, the odd thing is that they are all true. it is just that you have not come to that realisation yet. Ukraine lost a long time ago, but the lies of the media and your leaders, backed up by obscene back-door financial support from the military-industrial complex, have ensured the bloodbath continues. I have mixed views on Galloway, but he cannot be ignored. There is no question that he was the subject of a media blackout during the last election. Yet look what has happened to Farage who was given way too much media oxygen. My politics? If I were in the UK, I would support Corbyn. I despise Starmer and what has become of the Labour Party And I would never vote Tory!. And then you talk about Iran. Of course, it would annihilate Israel in a one-to-one fight. It would be no contest. Just wait and see. And don`t expect the USA to come into that fight willingly - they have just had their arse kicked by the Houthis. Interestingly, you fail to acknowledge that I correctly forecast several other things that have already occurred. The Hannibal directive? The lies around October 7? The true effectiveness of Iran`s attack on Israel? The virtual closure of the Red Sea/ Suez Canal? The use of RAF Akrotiri in Cyprus to support Israel? But hey, you go on believing what you want to believe. I happen to despise the Zionism you believe in. I will continue utilising my independent media sources. They are infinitely more reliable than the BBC. You may not like it, but them`s the breaks. Reply |
| 15. Author: Dave_1885 Date: Wed 11th Jun 2025. 10:30 The One Who Knocks, Tue 10 Jun 20:27 Instead Israel is annihilating 2 million people whilst the world sits back and watches…… Reply |
| 16. Author: Parboiled Date: Wed 11th Jun 2025. 11:11 It’s all Germany’s fault. Whoever thought that a civilised European state would fall under the spell of a raving lunatic Reply |
| 17. Author: The One Who Knocks Date: Wed 11th Jun 2025. 11:19 Oz the fact that I have a better handle of geo political realities than you doesn`t mean I am supportive of the current Israeli regime. It certainly isn`t because I`m more intelligent as I`m sure you are a brighter chap than I am. No it`s because I don`t get all my information from propagandists and grifters. Pointing out when your musings are incorrect is just that. You hate Israel and Israelis in general and that clouds any objective analysis of the situation from yourself. If it was a one on one fight just between Iran and Israel then you think Iran would win and you might well be right. The actual reality is though that it would never be a one on one fight. So your analysis was based on a fantasy from the beginning. As for Ukraine they may eventually be defeated, who knows for sure certainly not you or I, however I can`t get over the fact that your actually want them to be be beaten. And although my eyes were open They just might as well be closed Reply |

| 19. Author: The One Who Knocks Date: Wed 11th Jun 2025. 11:59 Point out where I have justified it? And although my eyes were open They just might as well be closed Reply |
| 20. Author: OzPar Date: Wed 11th Jun 2025. 12:18 For your info, here`s a short sample of the "propagandists and grifters" I regularly gather my information on Israel and the Middle East from:- John Mearsheimer Jeffrey Sachs Gabor Mate and his son, Aaron Mate Max Blumenthal Katie Halper Norman Finkelstein Simone Zimmerman Avi Shlaim I am a huge fan of all of the above. For your information, they are all Jews and are all opposed to the Zionist state. Perhaps, as you imply, this inherent bias may impact my judgment, but I don`t apologise for my hatred of an ethnic-supremacist apartheid state that is intent on genocide. I simply offer these as an example of my information sources. I won`t list them here, but rest assured, my sources on Iran, Russia, Ukraine, China, Europe and America are of similar stature when it comes to their intimate experience and knowledge of their subject. Propagandists and grifters they are not. Post Edited (Wed 11 Jun 12:19) Reply |
