  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

MAGA does NOT view Russia or President Putin favorably.
Yes it does. Well, maybe only after Trump has been on the phone to Putin for a few hours and is doing his ‘wants peace, round two in two weeks’ bit.

Wanting peace between Ukraine and Russia to stop the killings and casualties of hundreds of thousands of people does not mean at all that President Trump and MAGA views the evil tyrant Putin favorably. We want peace and the killing to stop.

It looks like you're saying the killing will stop when Ukraine gives Russia what it wants. What could possibly go wrong? Trump's buddy Putin will be emboldened. Russia will know that it can pick a country to invade and the US President will recommend that country comply with Russia in the name of peace.

The only way for peace is for Putin to defeated. Conceding land to Russia only buys peace for few years.

Your solution will require the killings to continue on and on and on.

Are you okay with a seemingly endless war with hundreds of thousands of Ukrainian and Russian casualties?
Also, it is a very false accusation to say that Trump and Putin are buddies. It is an equally false accusation about what you are predicting will happen in the future.

No, but I'm also not okay with Russia invading sovereign countries like Ukraine.

Also, it is a very false accusation to say that Trump and Putin are buddies.
Hardly. It's well known that they like each other.



It is an equally false accusation about what you are predicting will happen in the future.
It's what's likely to happen if Ukraine capitulates. Now that Finland is in NATO, Finland is less likely to be invaded again, but Ukraine represents former Soviet states. Putin wants to reacquire them for mother Russia.

No only until Russia stops attacking. Peace is impossible with Russia as history has shown. It will renege on any and all compacts, agreements and accords and continue to strive to gobble up nations it considers its own.

Russian land is wherever a Russian soldier sets foot.

Russia cannot even completely defeat Ukraine in a conventional war. How is Russia going to gobble up more nations?

Just the opposite. He is constitutionally not allowed to call an election when his country is at war.

I assume that you didn't know that.
Do you know what the Ukrainian Constitution says about war time elections?
Thank you . . . so, do you think Ukraine is a democracy? . . . I mean a **functional** democracy, versus certain ones with money and power controlling who the candidates are . . . like could be happening in the United States which claims to be democratic but does not seem to manage to provide qualified candidates and qualified voters.

I did not intend to make any statement about the Ukraine's constitution. It seemed possible to me, that Charlie meant that, because there has been so much corruption in Ukraine, the country has not been a democracy . . . functionally.

It's like how ones can claim to be Christians but they do not live that way.
