Oh gee, they got a bunch of kids to use as propaganda. Why not, they’ve been using civilians as human shields and forcing POWs to make statements against their own country. I guess all is fair in love and war.

On-site, NON-MSM war reporting is always the best

One thing for sure - if the Russians have encircled this town, it means their army have moved all the way across Eastern Ukraine and up from Crimea.

I’ve noticed that these Putin puffers have a strong man complex. There’s obviously a homosexual admiration factor involved.

True. Although there isn't anything in the article saying that this particular city is surrounded by Russian troops, nor that it has actually suffered any Russian attacks. I know that has to be disappointing to those rooting for the Russians to win, but I guess they'll have to wait just a bit longer.

these Putin puffers

Wow! that's your strongest argument yet. Did you think that up during recess?

In the USA, on the other hand, the invaders have already taken over.

I call em like I see em.

For those who think that in the negotiations Ukraine should just let Putin have the Russian-speaking part, the problem is that most of the Russian-speakers do not want to be a part of Putin’s Russia.

And as the article points out, the invasion by Putin has driven even more Russian-speakers away from him.

Don’t worry the ghost of kiev will save them before the Ruskkies get to the babies in incubators.

[HighSierra5]

Kinzinger will agree.

Once you become a lying faggot psychopath and joined the same there isn’t much to add. You’ve hit the bottom of the barrel and are lower than whale crap. There is nothing left to say.

You need glasses.

And my breath stinks. Opps, I just couldn't help but jump in. Kinda like you did.

Do the Russians even intend to go in? There have been posited all sorts of theories about why the Russians are doing what they are. Keep Ukraine from joining NATO? Certainly. But is that it?

Ukrainiacs don’t care about Brandon and the wokecrats destroying the country.

They’re busy chastising fellow conservatives for not caring enough about Ukrainians.

Their virtue signaling is pathetic.

[HighSierra5]

Well, I’ve really touched a nerve.

[Williams]

I think it’s reasonable to suggest you go fight and die for Putin. You can help clear out those bio warfare labs that you and your friends say the evil United States has all over Ukraine.

Isn’t that worth dying for?

[BipolarBob]

Not mine.

I can hate Pukin and Joek at the same time. I just don’t like women and children slaughtered.
