Seymour Hersh says who took out the Nordstream Pipeline

Russia invades Ukraine.
Ukraine fights back.
The latter is the defender.

It's all pretty simple...unless you think
George Soros is attacking Russia
from his Nazi stronghold in Ukraine.
Oh yeah, I criticized the west, the defenders of god, freedom, and democracy, my bad.

If you dislike us, you'll really dislike Russia meddling in your affairs.
Tu quoque? The difference between Russia and the US is that we know that the Russians are not our friends and risky business partners. But many (too many) in Europe are under the illusion that the US is our ally and friend.

For instance, the criminal procedure of my country states that:
If someone threatens to kill a person with a knife, and some time later that person is found dead, stabbed with a knife,
that person is to be blamed because of fumus commissi delicti.
And will probably be jailed.

Yes, Biden's boast that he would "bring an end" to the pipeline looks very bad in retrospect.

Certainly another in his seemingly endless stream of blunders.

It's a testy relationship, but beware belief
that Russia is as good a friend. Frankly,
I'd rather pull our military out of Europe.
You guys can fend for yourselves....I hope.

What does testy relationship mean?

Seventy-seven years of loyalty to the US mean something.

That's not wrong per se.
But doing so in defense of Putin's invasion is.
Criticizing the west for escalating an "unprovoked" war, my bad. Criticizing the CIA backed coup that overthrew the democratically elected president of Ukraine in 2014, my bad again. I guess I will never learn to bow down and lick the jackboots of the powers that be in Washington, I'm so bad. I suppose this makes me a Putin sympathizer, because you know, Russians, and me so bad.

You picked your side.
I picked mine (Ukraine).

It doesn't justify either Putin or the Russian invasion (or special military operation, as they call it).
They could call it an ice cream sundae. It changes nothing.

But if the United States believe the EU will join the US in a hypothetical war against Russians, I guess the US are very delusional. And naïve, above all.
For the last time, stop pretending to speak for all of Europe. I'm sure most Europeans cherish freedom and democracy and abhor unprovoked invasions and war crimes.
Stop trying to paint the aggressor as the victim.

Backstabbing an ally that did nothing to you is the lowest of the lowest.
I think facilitating the torture and rape of children is the lowest of the lowest. You praise the enablers and denounce those trying to put a stop to it.

What should we make of that?:pizza:

Also, whose ally?

I don't pick sides, this is tribal mentality and I play no part in it. I have stated that Putin is a war criminal and I have stated that Biden is a war criminal, but no, it appears that I am a Putin sympathizer because I criticize both sides. I am not surprised by this, in fact, it is expected considering the climate.

There is also @Heyo here, and comes from Germany.

Come to Europe, if you don't trust me.
Europeans will never fight this war.

I don't side with Russia.
We Europeans have been sanctioning Russia to convince her to stop this war. To stop the military operation.
So this should convince you we don't side with this belligerent party.

But I cannot side with Zelensky either who has done nothing to negotiate with Putin.

I side with commoners. Ukrainian refugees, Russian deserters.

This is somewhat at odds with your prior posts that are pro-Putin.
But you have still taken a side against Ukraine because of your
views of Zelensky for not negotiating, ie, capitulating.
