While Putin lies Germany sends weapons to Ukraine

Germany has reversed a historic policy of never sending weapons to conflict zones, saying the Russian invasion of Ukraine was an epochal moment that is imperilling the entire post-World War II order across Europe. 

Germany will send 1,000 anti-tank weapons and 500 Stinger missiles to Ukraine, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz said that this marks a reversal in Berlin's restrictive arms export policy.

Yesterday German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock expressed great anger in how the Russian president had lied to her, the German people and the entire world.

Ukrainian President Voldymyr Zelenskyy when offered safe exit from Ukraine replied: Its not a ride I want, its weapons.

Every day Zelenskyy proves himself to be quite an amazing man, a great, courageous and charismatic leader.

President Putin has told the Russian people that the leadership in Ukraine is made up of Neo Nazis and drug addicts.

It’s doubtful that Voldymyr Zelenskyy is a drug addict. The man’s first language is Russian and actually he is a Jew.

President Putin has a penchant for telling barefaced lies.

What is the Russian Orthodox Church saying about  President Putin?

Zelenskyy is an example to the world. When elected president the world smirked at this comedian being elected. The world must right now hold this man in the highest of esteem.

Let me understand how it works:

Secession is good when Kossovo does it, but bad when Crimea, Donetsk & Lugansk do it.

Bombing a sovereign country is good when the US & UK do it to Syria, Yemen, Libya, Iraq, Afghanistan, Serbia, but bad when Russia does it to Ukraine.

Putin is Hitler, but David Cameron, Barack Obama, Tony Blair, George Bush, Bill Clinton and John Major are not Hitler for doing a lot worse.

Ukraine is not sanctioned or disconnected from SWIFT for intentionally shelling civilians in Donbass, but Russia is sanctioned and disconnected from SWIFT for bombing military targets in Ukraine.

Is that how woke war works?

Am I forgetting anything?

You are forgetting many things, Russian planes dropping their bombs in Syria.
A solemn international agreement was signed between Russia and Ukraine when Ukraine handed over its nuclear weapons to Russia. Do you remember to what the Russians agreed?
Have you forgotten what President Putin said in the days leading up to the invasion?
And why the anonymity?

Michael,

I just read the comments above and wanted to share mine.

There is a saying that "the first casualty in every war is truth" and I think that applies to everyone involved. It is therefore very advisable to be cautious about making judgements.

I'll give you two examples:
- In 2020, the UN Council voted on 'Combating glorification of Nazism'. There were only two that voted against it and Ukraine was one of them.

- After the orange color revolution, Gysi already warned in parliament that the newly formed government in Ukraine would be largely made up of right-wing radicals: "Fascists have important posts {in the government} and dominate the security sector, for example"

Unfortunately, there are no peace bombs - even if they come from Germany!
