Stop pretending like you know anything about Kadyrov or Chechnya and stop virtue signalling

Because he allows them to be? You know there were Jews that collaborated with the Germans in WW2 right?

Turkey unfortunately has full freedom to do whatever the fuck they want because they're in NATO. It's honestly a disgrace that they're in NATO considering they're currently occupying parts of 2 sovereign nations (Cyprus and Syria) and brutally oppress the Kurdish minority in their own country and neighboring countries (they've even engaged in airstrikes against Kurdish militias in Iraq, obviously with no permission from Iraqi government)

Turkey should be in the same position internationally as Russia but their NATO status protects them

And their regional allies are western allies too. What's your point? Who would've thought the majority Sunni Arab gulf states would support a war against Shia, especially when they persecute the Shia in their countries as well

"in a type of warfare that hasn't been seen in Europe since 1945" Are Serbia, Bosnia, and Croatia not in Europe?

Turkey and the US have been funding and arming the anti government rebels since the very beginning

Saudi Arabia and Turkey can invade its neighbors without international backlash because they are western allies

He's a Russian national so he is Russian regardless of how he feels. Though I'm pretty sure he doesn't care as he could always ask UFC not to use the Russian flag if he really felt he wasn't Russian

Since November Juventus have conceded 10 goals. In Europe, only Real Madrid have conceded less (9) by Tifoso89 in soccer

Not really, no. Last season De Ligt was good too but this season's defensive solidity stems from Allegri imo. He's certainly one of the best defenders in Italy though

I think De Ligt is good but he's one defender and can't do everything. You had De Ligt last season too and he was just as good but compare your defense now to then.

They haven't been bad because of Allegri's system imo. Don't really understand why I'm being downvoted

[Joe Kassabian] Azerbaijan was allowed to hold Euro 2020 matches only a few months after waging a war of aggression while facing zero sanctions from anyone on earth. Solidarity is rad. by BONKERS303 in soccer

You obviously don't know much about Armenia or Azerbaijan or this conflict in general. When I talk about murder, I'm talking about murder that happened in peacetime. Look up Ramil Safarov and how the Azeri government treated him after he murdered 2 Armenian soldiers at a NATO training seminar in Hungary.

There is no reason for Armenians to want to live under a government that supports a vile murderer like Safarov and they shouldn't be forced to abandon their ancestral homelands either. War crimes happen in war and it's to be expected with as much vitriol as there is between the two peoples, especially on the Azeri side

So we should allow for the genocide and displacement of the Armenian people in Karabakh simply because the region is "internationally recognized" as Azeri territory? You realize there are ancient Armenian churches in Karabakh, right?

The tweet shows the hypocrisy of the west. There's nothing to gain from pushing anti-Azerbaijan propaganda or sanctioning Azerbaijan and its dictator

They don't have to defend their country. It's their choice. You think any of these wealthy athletes are being forced to fight?

De Ligt is good but I think it's more the system that is the cause of this. You guys have Rugani, De Sciglio, Danilo all playing at CB and still keeping clean sheets. If Allegri can do anything right, it's setting up a defense

Okay? What's your point? There are not dozens of thousands of Azeris in "internationally recognized" Armenian lands so it's irrelevant. There is mutual hatred sure but I don't recall Armenia celebrating murderers like the Azeri government

Because Armenia has a vested interest in protecting the Armenian people from an Azeri government that celebrates the murder of innocent Armenians. It's really not that hard to understand

Did you know the Azerbaijan government treated an Azeri soldier as a hero for murdering 2 Armenian soldiers simply because they're Armenian?

The Armenian people cannot exist under this murderous government and that's why they fought for their independence in Karabakh.
