#1 This apologist for the ~~Soviets~~ Russians provides not a single link to back up his claims.

Amateur.

#2 To the EU/NATO apologist above, if you look at the bottom of the article, all of the relevant links to stories mentioned in the piece are provided.

#3 Clearly I'm slower than usual today. How does not agreeing with the posted article make one an EU/NATO apologist, SOC? And what difference would it make if lotp were, when the parties in the conflict are Georgia and Russia? The EU and NATO are not yet involved in any besides talking.

#4 My apologies, Sean - you did indeed provide a list of links at the bottom of your post. It would be easier to verify exactly what you claim out of each article if they were hyperlinked within the long analysis but they are indeed there.

#5 Clean up. This is happenening with increasing frequency

We've got a troll who bops in under various proxy IP addresses and uses regulars' nyms. He seems to enjoy spewing trash here and wants to drive regular people away.

#6 CNN and FOX are deceit entities. Disinformation is their business. Amerikans love lies that fit.

#7 And French Canadians love what? To define themselves primarily by antiAmericanism it would seem.

#9 My darling mother-in-law is Quebecois, and she's wonderful. But then she doesn't think much of the current generality of French Canadians, either. On the other hand, she spells beautifully.

#10 Tough call, eh?

#11 trailingwife: not agreeing with the article makes one an EU or NATO apologist in the same manner that not agreeing with the picture painted by the media earns one the label of Soviet or Russian apologist, despite the fact that the article points out a key Russian disinformation example from the later stages of the conflict used to stir up trouble with the Ukraine...
