It should be easy to find out what really happened to the massacred civilians in the Ukrainian town.
The truth about Bucha is out there, but perhaps too inconvenient to be discovered A woman walks in Bucha, in the outskirts of Kyiv, Ukraine, Sunday, April 3, 2022.
“In war, truth is the first casualty.” This quote has been attributed to Aeschylus, a 6th BCE Greek tragedian noted for his “copious use of imagery, mythic allusion, grand language, wordplay and riddles.” It is only fitting, therefore, that the man who first gave word to the concept of modern-day war-time propaganda would see his quote come to life in the present-day Ukraine. The Kiev government and their Western information warfare advisers may have coopted all of Aeschylus’ playwright devices to craft a modern-day tragedy in the Ukrainian town of Bucha that exemplifies the notion of the lie as not just a byproduct, but also a weapon of war.
The main source of the Bucha tragedy reports is a videotape, taken by the Ukrainian National Police, of one of their convoys driving through a street in the town. A dozen or so corpses litter the roadway, many of them appearing to have been bound. This video has gone viral...
... The linkage between the dead and the Russian military was established immediately, without any fact-based data to back it up, and subsequently echoed in all forms of media... ... Social “preconditioning” of an audience unused to critical thinking is an essential step in getting this audience to accept at face value anything that is put before it, regardless of how egregiously the facts of the story strain credulity. And let’s be clear – the Ukrainian narrative of the events in Bucha seems to stretch credibility...

Good points. Agreed

You post a link from Bellingcat?l?
Seriously???
Bwaaa haa hà haa!!!
He’s a CIA mouthpiece, and did much to push the false “Sarin gas attack” in Syria that got us butthole deep in another hellhole. It all came out later.
He’s like linking John Brennan. Same credibility, same side.
Not really. They have brought the usual Russian murder, looting, and vast destruction to peaceful cities in Ukraine.
And then they try to burn the evidence, like they did to this family.
Nice find. Yup, Bucha is a giant psyop propaganda effort to drag us into another forever war.
No thanks.
Scott Ritter took $400,000 from a pro-Saddam Iraqi businessman to fund his documentary film, money that turned out to have been funneled from the Oil-for-Food program. In addition, his crystal ball seems to be as cloudy as anyone else’s, despite his claim of superior insight.
One does not need to occupy the territory of a foe in order to destroy it. A strategic air campaign designed to nullify specific aspects of a nation’s capability, whether it be economic, political, military, or all the above, coupled with a focused ground campaign designed to destroy an enemy’s army as opposed to occupy its territory, is the likely course of action.
Given the overwhelming supremacy Russia has both in terms of the ability to project air power backed by precision missile attacks, a strategic air campaign against Ukraine would accomplish in days what the US took more than a month to do against Iraq in 1991.
On the ground, the destruction of Ukraine’s army is all but guaranteed. Simply put, the Ukrainian military is neither equipped nor trained to engage in large-scale ground combat. It would be destroyed piecemeal, and the Russians would more than likely spend more time processing Ukrainian prisoners of war than killing Ukrainian defenders.]
An ABC reporter? Seriously??? Have we learned nothing from the past 5 years?
Credibility same as always.
Zero.
You should go to Ukraine and tell Putin that.
The fact that there are body parts visible is proof the Russians are restrained. They could reduce Kiev to ashes. War is hell
” Bucha is a giant psyop propaganda effort to drag us into another forever war.”
A ware with Russia is guaranteed to last no more than a month.
More likely 3-4 days.
That’s it.
Sad how so many FReepers blindly accept what the media says as absolute truth when it comes to this. On the one hand, none of us believed the media when it came to Russia Russia Russia. But now, since Russia is the aggressor, it’s Russian man bad, and everything the media says is the truth.
We shouldn’t have been anywhere after WWII, but we have a military presence in most countries of the world. Why? Why were we in Korea? Vietnam? Mogadishu? Panama? Anywhere in Africa?
Putin went after the biolabs and Nazi military groups.
Apparently, Russia were the first ones calling for international investigators. Also apparently, the UK shot that right down. You have to wonder, why?
But you're trusting the media who lie about everything.
Those look like mannequins.
Bump
Another bs word salad by a pos.
And no, Russia Times hasn’t been right about squat.
Because that’s what dead people look like.
I have to wonder why people like you are so screwed up that you keep “wondering” about nonsense, when reality is in front of you.
