I still think the overall plan is to get the US into a 3 front war with Xi being the one pulling he strings but Bidens played it smart by not jumping in

From your link. I also heard about this on Thom Hartmann today.

"Ever since declaring war against Russian President Vladimir Putin, Anonymous, the decentralized international activist and hacktivist collective, has continued to relentlessly hit the Kremlin with attacks that are undermining the country's leadership and disrupting its narrative on the ongoing invasion of Ukraine. The latest is a printer hack, which allows the collective to send a message across the transcontinental country.

The details of the latest attack against Russia were shared by Anonymous on the micro-blogging site Twitter. "We have been printing anti-propaganda and tor installation instructions to printers all over #Russia for 2 hours, and printed 100,000+ copies so far. 15 people working on this op as we speak," the tweet read.

International Business Times had the opportunity to talk to one of the hacktivists and they confirmed the hack. They also explained that the operation included PDFs printed on the hacked printers with a message telling Russians that its president, Kremlin and Russian media have lied to them."

Anonymous also said that they are going to leak more hacked data from Russia soon.

Historically speaking Turkey and russia are "meh" at best

I feel most of the countries in that area (eurasia through the middle east )have meh relations to begin with. Even within these various countries there are domestic hostilities among various ethnic and/or religious groups.

However, I think an over riding factor might be how much they also don't agree with the west and have resentment from colonialism. I feel the west is over estimating their global influence and some other countries are stepping up like China, India, various OPEC members, etc, who are now trying to broker deals that strengthen them, but will weaken the west.

For instance, Germany just sign a natural gas deal to reduce reliance on Russian energy. So it looks like Germany is like "in yo face Russia", but this wont be in effect until the end of the year at minimum and because of news like this, oil prices continue to rise due to market anxiety.

Plus Qatar and OPEC are still moving forward with including Russia in OPEC+

Remember, oil was 91/barrel when this started, it is currently at 112, so even with selling at a discount, Russia is making more than they were prior. Plus all these countries like Iran, Qatar, OPEC members. Oil had shot up to over 125, then cooled for like a day or two when Biden released strategic reserves to create a temporary decrease to brag about. But that was such a small anount released, it is meaningless, and this turmoil is further driving up the prices, benefiting everyone who disagrees with liberal, democratic values and the American dollar will evetually lose value and eventually be replaced by the yuan. Which is why last week they started headlines about the PetroYuan rather than the PetroDollar.

That is why it is no coincidence that China gave Russia the permission to start this invasion after the olympics. Also why China tested the supersonic missile to astonishment the west. After seeing Russia test the international waters in Ukraine and see such a week response globally. China then invades Taiwan with their air strikes and throw in a few hypersonic missiles, and it is over within weeks as the west does nothing, and has no buying power to sanction China.

Explain how a drone strike that accidentally kills civilians makes Joe Biden a war criminal in the same sense as Vladimir Putin, whose country is actively levelling Mariupol and killing hundreds of citizens - and this is continuing with Putin's full backing.

But take your time, I need popcorn for this stupidity.

Give me 5 minutes.

Accidentally? Is that what they say every time they level a home in search for a "terrorist" and kill entire family? Go snort more coke from Biden's ass crack.

There's a difference between levelling a home and making a concerted, months-long effort at levelling a city.

Or are you saying there literally isn't a difference?
 
‘Fortnite’ Raises $36 Million for Ukraine Humanitarian Relief

"Epic Games, after announcing Sunday that it was donating all proceeds from its popular “Fortnite” game toward humanitarian relief for people affected by Russia’s war on Ukraine, said Monday it has already raised $36 million for the effort.

According to Epic, “Fortnite” proceeds from March 20-April 3, 2022 will go toward Ukraine relief. In addition, Microsoft’s Xbox is joining the effort and will commit net proceeds from all sales of “Fortnite” content on Microsoft Store during the time period.

Epic said the money is going to four organizations: UNICEF; the U.N.’s World Food Programme; UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency; and Direct Relief, a nongovernmental organization that says it has deployed more than 48 tons of medical aid to Ukraine since the beginning of Russia’s war. Epic said it will add more organizations to the list in the coming weeks.

“We’re not waiting for the actual funds to come in from our platform and payment partners, which can take a while depending on how the transaction was processed,” Epic said in a March 20 blog post. “As transactions are reported, we’ll log them and send the funds to the humanitarian relief organizations within days.”
