(1,000 posts)When I was a kid I lived 10 miles from Wright Pat AFB. We had to do the duck under your desk and cover your head drills in grade school. Like that would have mattered at that distance. I am a Deist, I still thank the God above John F. Kennedy was President during the Cuban Missile Crisis. Could you imagine this cretin?

(1,000 posts)She said Germany had spent 80 years apologizing for what their country did, she and her children will spend the next 80 years apologizing for what her country did.
The Ukrainian people are bad ass, they will never turn over their country like the Republican party turned ours over, and they turned ours over because Laura, Tucker, and Sean said that Putin and Trump are what manly men look like. How embarrassing.

And as President Biden knows, and has said, when it comes to Putin we are dealing with a ruthless killer. We should act accordingly. (from a floor speech by Senator Robert Menendez in 2021)

(9,980 posts)one of the permanent members of the Security Council. The UN charter says that the USSR is the permanent member, but it no longer exists, and the Security Council should have been reduced to four permanent members. Every pressure must be brought to bear against Putin to encourage Russian leaders to remove him.

(31,987 posts)The China that was given a permanent seat on the Security Council no longer exists either.
Lonestarblue
(9,980 posts)Te USSR doesnt even exist, and its territories have all formed new states. Why should only one of those states have been given preference over all others? Such a review of Russias status may not lead to changes, but it does announce to other Russian leaders that the world is now willing to consider isolating Russia, which will seriously damage their economy and future.

(24,761 posts)Having a russkie as a permanent member of the UN Security Council with veto power is like having murder defendants on the jury.
Would you have a criminal defendant on a jury?
