Ukraine - Take two

[Aloha_Shooter]

Agreed.

This grifter has been on all sides of every issue since the 70's.
Actually, before that. He was accused of plagiarism several times, including in law school in the 60's.
His lies are well documented and provably false.

He will say and do almost anything to advance his favorite cause- himself.

Not all sides. Robert Gates -- who I do NOT respect as I think he was a horrible DCI, terrible SecDef, and obnoxiously bad President of Scouting -- said Biden was on the wrong side of every major national security issue for the last 50 years.

I don't think that even Joe knows what the fuck comes out of his mouth.

Accurate. We desperately need to restructure how many potatoes are in office. Good lord.

I just flew back from France where I spent 2 days volunteering as an interpreter to help the Ukrainian refugees. This was not the plan, I just couldn’t stay on the sidelines when I saw the long lines of refugees. 90% of them are Slavic, roughly 10% are Muslims from the southern part of Ukraine. I saw a few men of military age, they are either unfit for service, or just a like a guy i helped, the only one caring for his childrens after his wife was killed in irpin…. Russians are killing, looting and pretty much carpet bombing anything in sight. People have been shot in their car, their apartment, even the ones displaying a Russian flag on their balcony in Mariupol….

Dont’ trust the US media on anything, this is way worse than what they are showing you. If you want the real news coverage, turn to the BBC, France24 (in English) or DW. Their coverage is spot on and balanced.

I heard from reliable sources that French Legionaires have been given a free pass to go help train and fight over there… They are the perfect soldiers for the job, since most of them potentially carry foreign passports and can offer full deniability in case they get caught….

As my daddy would have said, "Biden is as useless as teats on a boar hog".

I wish I'd recorded all my daddy's "sayings", he had some good'uns, timeless and true. One of my faves - "boy, you need that like you need another tit....."

I would encourage anyone needing some context to listen to Scott Horton's speech from earlier this month. If you have any patriotism in you, it's going to sting. For those of us that spent a bunch of time in Africa, Iraq, and Afghanistan fighting the GWOT, it has some very tough pills to swallow... But I can't find any *factual* errors... Which makes it bite even deeper.

Whelp, looks like Ukrainians are now shooting Russian POWs in the legs. https://twitter.com/politblogme/stat...75846384082945

Haven't seen the slanted feed, but I don't doubt the veracity of it. Because I know what war is.
Saying there is an instance or a handful where a Ukrainian defender shot a POW is like saying a river is wet and acting like it's new info.

I suppose Russia should take over the US, because some of our soldiers have done far, far worse before, we better have the commies come in and de-nazify us too.

And we did it while we were INVADING other countries, not DEFENDING ourselves. We did it on occasion, just because, the rare sociopath in the military getting their rocks off, not because we saw our families killed by artillery and indiscriminate rocket fire. At best, we did it because our fellow soldiers had been killed around us. Over there, they've had their fucking infants killed. Neighbors, parents, siblings, spouses killed. That does have a tendency to inspire a level of vindictiveness we can't even begin to fathom, as no US born citizen alive has ever truly experienced this. Russians have not been abiding by Geneva, I can't say I'm all that concerned if they receive a taste of their own.

Ukrainians need a medal for the restraint they've exemplified so far. Fuck pro Russian communist sympathizers, wherever they may be. I was always opposed to McCarthy, but the country has flung so far the other way, and there is a virus spreading in the conservative party consuming soviet propaganda. Maybe he had a small point.

Ukrainians aren't playing.

Two Russian soldiers have died and 28 are in hospital after being POISONED by pastry delicacies offered to them by civilians near besieged Kharkiv, according to the Ukraine Ministry of Defence

It comes after more than 500 Russian troops were hospitalised after drinking poisoned alcohol

[BushMasterBoy]

Russians are killing people in the village of Bucha who are obviously civilians. Many are shot in the back of their head while their hands are tied. Bodies are just left to rot in the street.
