Re: Russia Invades Ukraine 2022
Somehow the notion that blacks were too stupid to fight for the Union where they were permitted to learn to read, but smart enough to fight for the confederacy where there was laws preventing them from learning doesn’t make much sense. I’m sure there were a few black slaves who fought but I really ...

Re: Russia Invades Ukraine 2022
Well yes. But Chicago is not on Lake Erie. And it is 2 states away from Johnson's Island in Ohio. They are still dead. They were starved to death, in prison camps, in both places. Again, you are simply wrong. Lincoln didn't abolish the parole system, Grant did. Grant did not make a move without Lin...

Re: Russia Invades Ukraine 2022
Some of what we "know" is based on personal experiences. My grandparents and great grandparents knew my ancestors that fought in the US Civil War. They told me about one of my ancestors was captured by the North and put on an Island in Lake Erie. When he came back, they did not recognize ...

Re: Russia Invades Ukraine 2022
This only proves the point. You read one side and John reads another. Both of you draw conclusions and believe the other is wrong. If you know the Russian history with NATO you might know there is some disagreements documented with your claims but I don’t really care. Were they sincere attempts? Li...

Re: The first Christian Church was Jewish
I remember the Sabbath Day, and I try to keep the Seventh Day holy. A far as organized religion, there is not a lot of 7th Day Christian churches, just Seventh Day Adventist (where they worship Ellen White), United Church of God (Armstrong Cult), and various Messianic Christian groups. There's also...

Re: Russia Invades Ukraine 2022
The fact of the matter is that not one NATO country has had its European territory attacked since NATO was formed in 1948. Not one. NATO countries have had their overseas colonies attacked such as Algeria and the Falklands Islands. But not their European territory. So it has probably been the longe...

Re: Russia Invades Ukraine 2022
Let's put the shoe on the other foot, and see if it fits: Imagine if the USSR had admitted Cuba to the Warsaw Pact at the end of the Cold War, promised to attack anyone that attacked Cuba, and placed nuclear missiles on our doorstep to guarantee Cuba would not be invaded by the USA. Then imagine the...

Re: Russia Invades Ukraine 2022
Tide turned a long time ago, but they haven’t lost yet. I don’t expect Ukraine to hold out without boots on the ground from Allies. I think if NATO ends up in the Ukraine, then it's no longer a regional conflict and we might be looking at World War III. I don't think anyone has the appetite for tha...

Re: Russia Invades Ukraine 2022
I think you are right. I am beaten. I must give up. Apparently I am arguing against a type of "superior consciousness." As my mom always said, "Never argue with someone that is omniscient, because no matter what you say, they can counter "No its not!", and you will always l...

Re: Russia Invades Ukraine 2022
You do know that it’s been reported that Russian failure rate is relatively high for their shells right? Secondly, bullets are substantially different from artillery shells. Next that article basically is speaking about several different things, the shell itself will last almost indefinitely if sto...
