Lady G: Putin Should Be Put On Trial For War Crimes In Ukraine
Occidental Dissent - Mar 2nd 2022 7:35pm ESTYears ago, if we had truly cared about Ukraine, we could have prevented this war from ever happening.

Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., called on […]
Sean Hannity Proposes NATO Fighter Jets Bomb Russian Convoy
Occidental Dissent - Mar 2nd 2022 5:53pm ESTHannity says bomb a Russian convoy and then don’t take credit for it to confuse Putin. It’s possible to get mad at Kristols and Frums for stuff like this.

MTP Daily: ‘The Plucky Ukraine We’re Growing To Love Is Going To Get Crushed In Coming Days’
Occidental Dissent - Mar 2nd 2022 3:48pm ESTIf these people truly loved plucky little Ukraine, they would have never put them up to this. They would have advised them to remain a neutral country like Switzerland or Finland and develop their economy instead of taking sides in a geopolitical conflict between NATO and Russia. Now, Ukrainians are going to get slaughtered and […]

CNN: These Maps Explain Why Putin Is Invading Ukraine
Occidental Dissent - Mar 2nd 2022 1:29pm ESTNo, it is because he is an evil dictator who has lost his mind like Assad and Saddam Hussein. He is bent on destroying democracy.

National Review: Putin Is No Model For American Conservatives
Occidental Dissent - Mar 2nd 2022 10:01am ESTWho is modeling themselves on Vladimir Putin? Russia has always been an autocratic multicultural empire.

Live Thread: Joe Biden’s 2022 State of the Union Address
Occidental Dissent - Mar 1st 2022 7:03pm ESTMost fascinating thing about the Ukraine war is the sheer number of top strategic thinkers who warned for years that it was coming if we continued down the same path. No-one listened to them and here we are. Small compilation ? of these warnings, from Kissinger to Mearsheimer. — Arnaud Bertrand (@RnaudBertrand) March 1, 2022 […]
Breaking Points: Ukraine Roundup
Occidental Dissent - Mar 1st 2022 2:27pm ESTSince the State of the Union Address is tonight, it would seem to me that Joe Biden needs to be reminded that his most important job as president is keeping us out of World War III with Russia.

Why Russia Wants To Restore The Soviet Borders
Occidental Dissent - Mar 1st 2022 10:44am ESTI think the war in Ukraine is terrible. I understand Putin’s perspective though. He is not the one who has gone insane here.

Tucker Carlson: Don’t Fall For Moral Blackmail
Occidental Dissent - Feb 28th 2022 9:52pm ESTI agree. This is also my impression.

These people are emoting and virtue signaling their way into World War III. They are making a series of rash, highly […]
Fiona Hill: We’re Already In World War III
Occidental Dissent - Feb 28th 2022 2:43pm ESTAt least 99% of the US establishment is ardently pro-war.

Jen Psaki: “We Are Not Going To Have a Military War With Russia”
Occidental Dissent - Feb 28th 2022 1:12pm ESTYou can take that to the bank. We’re not going to spiral our way into World War III over this. This is nothing like how FDR maneuvered us into World War II by crushing Japan’s economy.

The Atlantic: Why Ukraine’s Interests Are America’s
Occidental Dissent - Feb 28th 2022 11:52am ESTI beg to differ. Yes, it is terrible what is happening in Ukraine, but it is imperial expansionists like George Packer who caused the conflict by recklessly expanding NATO to Russia’s borders.
