Steady on there @Max5, I'm going easy on you here. I think I know full well what we discussed in the past. My recollection is that we discussed both US foreign policy and Biden corruption which is what I claimed earlier. On the corruption front you even felt obliged to agree that there would be an element of those taking advantage of the situation in Ukraine. Likewise we discussed Soros, Nuland and the US influence in Ukraine; that last one I certainly recall because of my supposed naivety when I mentioned the leaked discussion between Nuland and other US officials. We also disagreed on US roles in other foreign places but you did concede that there were "shortcomings and mistakes" in the past (can't forget that one in a hurry can we) before later alluding to there being aspects of the various US foreign situations that sort of explained all the murder and such like that has happened.

I am not saying or claiming you agreed with me on anything, but it has been discussed which is all I am saying. Thinking about it, I'm not even sure why you're at all bothered that we did discuss these things. You're an odd one, no doubt!

Yes I may well have discussed or responded to issues over Nuland as regards the Ukraine specific 'US Coup' claims which I've done with various posters but to say we've discussed 'US Foreign policy' at large is a stretch and I certainly have no recollection of discussing Soros specifically as I have little knowledge of him and/or his involvement in Ukraine and nor do I hold any particular opinion in my mind over him. Except to say I have seen from a distance people making various claims over him. Perhaps I sought evidence or further information or clarification over whatever claims were being made at the time ? I would certainly never have initiated any claim over him for the reasons mentioned. As far as 'Biden corruption' is concerned again I would have never initiated any discussion over that issue and as before I may have responded or sought further information or substantiation over various claims which were being made by others and perhaps you at the time ?
Who couldn't acknowledge there's been 'shortcomings and mistakes' by the Yanks in the past. The more I think of it the more I'm guessing I may have made such a comment in the context of the good old whataboutery which gets beaten to death relentlessly by the rabid Putin apologists and anti Western Brigade here as some kind of eccentric or warped 'justification' for what Putin's done/is doing.
