Russian diplomat slams Aussie PM’s intention ‘to shirtfront’ Putin

[Steve781]

Russia had weak leadership so they tried to play nice with terrorists and took them long. Putin came in and brought the hammer down and the terrorists were squashed.

Putin came in to power only a few months after the war started.

Hahaha, then if Taliban has admitted responsibility and apologised for 9/11 then they could have saved their country. Who really gives a damn about apology when one shoots down an Iranian passanger plane, in Iranian territorial water!?

If you really criticize Russia for being aggressor, you should also criticize US for the same thing to avoid hypocrisy. The two countries not that different in terms of aggressiveness after all.

The US has certainly been aggressive towards many countries. But it was/is Russian troops that were/still are in Ukraine.

The war was going on in the 1990's.
Putin ended it once he came to power.

The Second Chechen war started in 1999. The first was ended by Yeltsin a few years earlier.

Putin made sure there was no Chechen war....Period!

1st war and 2nd war was the continuation of the same war.

I think we're all deviating here from the main point.

Gentlemen, perhaps Abbott must have chosen to quote his words metaphorically rather than use a slang.

It is simply a case of using fancy words.

G-20 is not headed by any one country; it is a gathering of 20 of the world's largest economies. Therefore, like all other countries, Russia will also be a respected guest there.

The G7 was a very cheap method to use trade as a military weapon.

I would pay to watch Putin chock slam the Aussie.

Korea, Falkland war, Desert Storm, Afghanistan, Iraq 2003, Libya. And a bloody imperial past, can you guess who is responsible?

North Korea started the Korean war and Argentina was responsible for starting the the Falklands War. US was responsible for all the others.

Perhaps the innocent people who lost their lives by your hands?


The Russian delusion that they are a rival to the US even though the US military budget is five times larger and the US economy ten times larger is just as absurd.

Bro U.S military budget is way more than 5 times larger, more like 8 times.

Russia took a decade to defeat an insurgency in tiny Chechnya. They are not a military rival of the US.

The US is struggling with ISIS, Taliban, Al Qaeda. At the same time, in Ferguson, we're seeing blacks protest against the state and the way it treats blacks.

It would be a lot easier for them to deal with the Taliban and Al Qaeda if your ISI didn't fund them.

There won't be any Russians left in a few decades. You have a European birth rate combined with an African death rate.

You're telling me you can handle Russia, but can't handle ISI + desert warriors?

 

[Steve781]

I'm not talking about Britain. Of course we can't handle Russia. I'm talking about the US.
