US was never wrong in bombings they have done the past and this one too they have played Ukraine like a marbles and watching on the fence like Angels if they were no kids I would have said Fuck JB ....

Biden speech in Poland, it was so uninspiring and low and probably comparable to that of a high school prefect in Zimbabwe. I don't know where the US comes with such presidents.

I think he meant it especially with NATO they are good in killing leaders who does not support them or removing them from position as he said. Putting must be alert, prophecy is about to be fulfilled of him being too sick.
