| 21. Author: hurricane_jimmy Date: Sun 13th Jul 2025. 22:20 Well Oz, miaow! The points you`ve tried to make about the Ukraine war are straight from Russian state TV and certain telegram channels. Pretty much word for word. Sammer did the same before and the two of you have simply made an erse of it. Ukraine have fought an incredible defensive campaign and severely embarrassed Putin and Russia. Meanwhile, the Kremlin have only succeeded in destroying their economy and reinvigorating NATO`s European members. The reality is a far cry from what you claim. Having seen how China operates first hand and having also good friends who are involved in media (both western and local) in HK, it just amazes me how you seem to take everything that the likes of China and Russia say at face value and claim that everyone else bar yourself is brainwash. Especially when you claim to have an illustrious background in the media. When you go to the Chinese Mainland, have a look around and see all the cameras, see all the propaganda posters and adverts and perhaps take a look at the difference between the English and Chinese language versions of different Chinese Media and Government websites. If you do this properly then your romanticised views of dictatorships should come crashing down and it`ll be quite obvious who the "deluded fool" is. Honestly, just stop simping for dictators.

Here are a couple of links to a well-respected independent media site in the UK. There are numerous equally reliable independent sources worldwide. Britain has clearly been using RAF Akrotiri for nefarious activities in Israel. Not to mention the role Britain played (including through RAF Akrotiri) in its support of Israel`s war with Iran. https://www.declassifieduk.org/uk-media-are-covering-up-british-spy-flights-for-israel/ https://www.declassifieduk.org/britain-sent-over-500-spy-flights-to-gaza/ Reply |

Oh no, wait a minute, the US have just given them extra arms to fight off the Russians, who still are no nearer to Kyiv than 3 years ago……. === Well over a million Ukrainians and Russians have died unnecessarily since the US and UK stopped Zelenskyy from signing a peace agreement in Istanbul a fortnight or so after the Russian invasion began. Despite some early success for the Ukrainians and the ill-advised incursion into Kursk, the war has overwhelmingly been going in the other direction, to the extent that now Ukraine is likely to surrender large swathes of the country when a settlement eventually occurs. Yes, I have been saying Russia has won this war for the best part of two years, and that is the truth. That has been the view of numerous military observers worldwide. The problem is that the UK, US and northern European media have been toeing the line, trotting out a procession of politicians and military spokesmen spouting mistruths, their pockets overflowing with gold gifted to them by the military-industrial complex. Zelenskyy is no different. I don`t doubt his bravery in the early stages of the war, but like so many others, it appears that the process has corrupted him. There are numerous sources I could quote, and none of them are Russian. However, to suggest a place for you to look beyond the mainstream, I recommend tuning in to the podcasts by American Judge Andrew Napolitano, called `Judging Freedom`. He interviews a range of interesting experts who often offer fresh perspectives on these global events. They can be found on YouTube, Spotify, and other platforms.

I have seen you reference it before, but it is not something I use. I have plenty of alternative sources. I have explained my methodology to you several times before. I use translation apps quite regularly. For example, if a story is about Iran, in addition to checking Iranian sources, I will also look at what`s being said in neighbouring countries, such as Saudi Arabia (Al Arabiya) and Qatar (Al Jazeera). And the same with China. I would examine what is being said on the subject in Taiwan, Japan, and Hong Kong. Here`s an alternative conversation on Ukraine:- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fqnfj3so_jy Post Edited (Mon 14 Jul 07:01) Reply |
| 25. Author: Dave_1885 Date: Mon 14th Jul 2025. 08:39 You have been saying Russia has won the war for 2 years - when didn’t Ukraine invade Kursk again? Doesn’t sound like a resounding victory to me 🤔 Reply |

| 27. Author: sadindiefreak Date: Mon 14th Jul 2025. 10:20 OzPar, Mon 14 Jul 04:03 The Shadow R1 aircraft is based at RAF Waddington, NOT Akrotiri. So they are lying about that. Lets give them benefit of the doubt and assume they are just ignorant, so have the terminology wrong. 14 Squadron are currently detached with the specific task off gathering information on the location of hostages. They are not assisting Israel in any intelligence gathering on anything else. The USAF fly U2`s out of Akrotiri and they are assisting Israel with information on Hamas locations. Surely if you want to minimise civilians being killed you want Israel to have accurate information on Hamas targets? Or do you long for more civilian deaths for your propaganda? Reply |

| 29. Author: The One Who Knocks Date: Mon 14th Jul 2025. 19:33 Buffy, should we call in `Towk Talk` or `Towk & Friends`? A***holes With Opinions is maybe a bit too on the nose. And although my eyes were open They just might as well be closed Reply |

Although, there has been a slight increase in the number of asylum seekers using hotels from 29k to 32k. Reply |
