  1. Who wrote this
    Subjective piece, Joe Biden? No even the US President could be this subjective, could he? After all the US are supplying Ukraine, including the Nazi Azov regiment, with cluster bombs and F16 Attack Jets! Putin is beyond doubt a nutter, and so is Zelensky and supplying F16 Fighters and cluster bombs suggests to me the west, using Ukraine, are looking to do what Hitler failed to, take Moscow. Maybe I'm wrong but thats how it looks objectively.

    1. What subjective piece Caoimhin?

      There is no one piece there. There is a compilation of articles put together by Leftists belonging to the Ukrainian Solidarity Group.

      The only attempt to take Moscow seems to have come from Wagner, not the West.

      The West's decision to commit war crimes by supplying cluster bombs to Ukraine should be repudiated by everybody that thinks war is bad enough without adding war crimes to it.

  2. Caoimhin, yes you are wrong. The objective of sending arms and materiel to Ukraine (I disagree with sending cluster bombs) is to defeat Putin's aggression and restore Ukraine's territorial integrity and sovereignty. There is no aim on the part of the West to take Moscow. The Azov Regiment which you so obsess about was largely decimated in the siege and Russian of the Azovstal steel works. Are you aware that far right American whackjobs like Marjorie Taylor Greene and Roseanne Barr also believe that Ukraine is ridden with Nazis. The Ukrainians took bullets and lost many in their thwarted pursuit of EU membership; that is one of the reasons why all democrats have to get behind the Ukrainian struggle. Slavi Ukraini!

  3. So the Azoz obsessed Irish republican who believes the ethno-religious partition of Ukraine could be a good solution, also believes "....the west....are looking to...take Moscow". It is extremely difficult to take you seriously, Caoimhin.
