Really sad to see Joe Bidens War escalate like this. Failed diplomacy... he needed to read Donald Trumps book on how to make a good deal, win/win.

Stolen elections have consequences and we’re looking at a big one.

Failed diplomacy.

Lack of diplomacy. Biden (or his handlers) started this war by talking about NATO and Ukraine. That lit the fuse. This stupid war should never have happened. it was predictable. it was stoppable. It was encouraged. The Biden admin. has blood on its hands.

Good thing we have reporters like Patrick Lancaster on the ground in Mariupol. His videos clearly show that this Governor is lying as bodies are not “carpeting the ground.” I highly doubt 10,000 civilians died in Mariupol since the Russians came to the town.

Yep, it is wanted by what remains of the Neocon/GOPe Establishment. It keeps the Dolts among us occupied and distracted from Demented Joe's catastrophic domestic mess.

“Russia gave holdout Ukrainian soldiers an ultimatum to lay down arms on Sunday in the pulverised southeastern port of Mariupol”

The Ukrainian reply was to give the Russians the same deadline to evacuate all their troops from Ukraine.

“On April 14, two Russian strategic heavy bombers Tu-95/-160 have launched cruise missiles hitting the territory of Ukraine from Krasnodar Krai of Russian Federation airspace”

It’s telling that even in the East where Russia has almost all of its forces they are still not eager to overfly the region with their air force. Instead launching hits only from safety across the border.

It’s understandable knowing Ukraine was given a ton of AA weaponry.

As opposed to you? What do you think we think of you backing Biden and the flaming homosexual puppet Zelensky?

““To restore Mariupol, that is something only Ukraine can do.”

Russia built it originally.

And Odessa too.

“Really sad to see Joe Bidens War escalate like this. Failed diplomacy... he needed to read Donald Trumps book on how to make a good deal, win/win.”

Exactly. We promised Russia and the world that we would not expand NATO after the fall of the USSR, but NATO has since doubled in size and Ukraine was being groomed to join NATO.

Imagine Russia placing nuclear weapons in Cuba, Haiti, Canada, Mexico, Dominican Republican, and the Bahamas, and how we might react.

If you didn’t have to, why would you?

“it was predictable”

It WAS predicted by 10s of thousands of pros, and millions of educated observers.

And entirely avoidable.

Blame the US and NATO.
