Richard, calm down, I understand your frustration. Have you considered that the attribute Newbie seems to be tied to the number of posts, not how long one has been a member? But apparently there's another problem. You seem to be OK with having posted a decade ago, but posts on this forum only goes back to early 2018. What could that mean?

Edit: sorry, I did say "over the years", not decade, although that is true also. Your ramblings go back to at least 2013 when I joined an early incarnation of the forum. Regardless, there's no reason your posts shouldn't be known to anyone who bothered reading them.

I'm completely perplexed as to what point you are trying to make or why you are belaboring this.  Again, if you want to explain how a "newbie" who your profile indicates registered on this forum just a few days ago (Date Registered :February 22, 2025, 09:10:54 AM) is familiar with posts made "over the years" knock yourself out.  ONLY YOU would know the answer.  Why play a thousand questions with me about that?  I just pointed out the oddity of being a "new" member as your forum profile suggest but referencing posts made years ago.  Something even more odd now that you are referencing posts that apparently date back years beyond the existing forum.  You seem very confused about your own status here.  I can't help you with that.

Smith, don't you know that even a "newbie" can access the posts of a grizzled old member like you by simply visiting his or her profile page?

D'oh!

So many new members named "Tom."

Trump is taking a major step today in ending the war in Ukraine.  Not only peace and prosperity but a lasting security.  Such a great contrast with Old Joe who would have funded an endless war on the backs of taxpayers with no plan or desire for resolving it.  Just another endless war costing billions and murdering thousands.  Thankfully that is almost over.

Joe is probably at peace sleeping on the beach again dreaming he is still a Senator and is blocking Clarence Thomas from becoming a Supreme Court judge by introducing Anita Hill to Congress.

Russia should withdraw all troupes.
The Ukraine borders should go back to before the invasion.

The complaint that Russia should not have to border against NATO is conflated BullOoops, I'm a naughty Boy.
NATO is not an aggressor.

If Russian lays down arms EU is at peace.
If Ukraine lays down arms = Putin marches on......

What SHOULD happen and what is possible are not the same thing.  Putin would fight this war indefinitely.  Perhaps for decades.  That means thousands more dead, billions more spent, cities destroyed, and eventually a similar deal would end it. Not every wrong can be righted.  The best deal for everyone is that the war and killing end now, the US gets some of the billions spent back in terms of the deal, Ukraine has increased security via the deal, and non-US peacekeepers and everyone moves on.  If this war has proven anything, it is that Russia is largely a paper tiger.  The cold war propaganda that they are a threat was overblown.  They are not invading any NATO country if they could barely overrun a few small regions of Ukraine over a three year war that may have cost them a million casualties.

   These are the situations resulting from a Stolen 2020 POTUS Election. "10% for the Big Guy". Biden kickbacks from Ukraine, Military Industrial Complex, etc. Graft at the expense of lives. He don't care as long as he gets his 10%. Cardboard Cutout Figure Head. Front Man.
