“well done, thanks”
Thank you. I truly appreciate your kind words.
You’ve brought tears to my eyes. I try to post verifiable facts. As to their words, I try to view as attempts to discredit the messebger to discredit the information I share.
Again, thank you.
You two should get a room.đź’‹đź’‹
Praise the Lord.
Thank you for this comment which doesn’t how all the international support for Ukraine.
May God continue to strengthen Ukraine to persevere against this invasion. Let Putin stop his ‘Special Military Operation’ in Ukraine & let peace come.
Let the nuclear rhetoric keep ratcheting up and we ALL are going to needs prayers while we are ALL bending over kissing our collective arses goodbye....
Nobody likes Russia. And that’s a d***** broad range of countries.
They should ask themselves - “is it them, or is it me?”
And my suggestion stands = mandatory reading of “How to win friends and influence people”.
You may want to mention that to your Russian friends. The nuke rhetoric began with Putin in February.
I appreciate your efforts. The pro-Putin posters are trying to intimidate you for posting articles. Just about any article from a commercial media source will seem (and probably be) pro-Ukrainian and anti-Putin.
Since this board is mostly a collection of these sources it is ridiculous for the pro-Putin people to abuse you for collecting this commercial media reality.
Showing non-commercial media is valuable too. Both pro-Russian and pro-Ukrainian sources should be allowed. In these cases respectfully pointing out the bias of the source is valuable since casual viewers might not know these sources. But constantly harping on the bias of the mainstream British or American sources is tiresome and not news to anyone on this forum.
Don’t matter when it started, it matters now that it continues from all sides.
I don’t worry about yesterday or the week or month before, I worry about NOW.
Regime change comes with lots of friends......
The Ukrainians are fighting for their country. The Russians are fighting for Putin.
“I appreciate your efforts. The pro-Putin posters are trying to intimidate you for posting articles.”
Thank you. I appreciate your comment.
I respect the freedom for other to hold their own viewpoint. However, I am not allowed to support Ukraine against the invasion of Putin’s Special Military Operation.
I typically, seek international sources to avoid being persecuted for using MSM. Thank you for your kind words.
“The Ukrainians are fighting for their country. The Russians are fighting for Putin.”
Truth. Thank you for your comment.
The Ukrainians fight for their country as we would.
“The Ukrainians are fighting for biden”
The Ukrainians stood by their nation before Biden came into the picture.
Independent Ukraine
The population of Ukraine voted overwhelmingly for independence in the referendum of December 1, 1991.
(About 84 percent of eligible voters turned out for the referendum, and about 90 percent of them endorsed independence.)
When Ukrainians voted for independence from the Soviet Union in 1991, all of its 24 “oblasts,” or regions – including Donetsk, Luhansk and Crimea – supported Ukraine independence.
The minority of ethnic Russians were included as Ukrainian citizens in an independent state voted for independence. The ethnic Russians and Russian speakers in Ukraine’s east did not automatically support the separatists or want to be part of Russia.
To the point, the minority ethically Russian or Russian speakers other ethnic minorities in Crimea & Donbass region were living PEACEFULLY WITH UKRAINIANS For most of the first two decades after Ukraine independence.
In other words, being an ethnic Russian or a Russian speaker does not indicate that one sees its self as part of the Russian World. There has been an increase in sentiment of a strong, unified Ukrainian identity since 1991. Most Ukrainians see their future as a sovereign country that is part of Europe.
Of course, this directly contradicts Putin’s goals. Putin attempts to invoke the concept of the “Russian World” or “Russkiy Mir” – that Russian civilization extends to everywhere that ethnic Russians live no matter where Russians are in the world.
Just the fact that he/she/it claimes that Ukraine has lost 6000 tanks is all I need to read lol
Zelensky sighed a decree refusing to negotiate with Russia as long as Putin is president. I suggest not giving him a single $, weapon, troop, etc till he talks. What a pompous ass he is.

If he did, the people would hang him in the next hour. He’s just the PR guy who can sign all sorts of things, but only those endorsed by Andri Yermak and the FSB/KGB have any meaning.
You neglect your close Iranian allies. Who wouldn’t celebrate an alliance wit Iran. They are such wonderful people.
“ to checklists with what you need take from home to the front.”
1. Updated Last Will and Testament. Check
2. Warm clothing suitable for combat. Check
3. Large heavy duty garbage bag to be buried in. Check
4. A whole lot of luck. Damn.
When I enlisted in the USMC I was told to bring exactly nothing but the clothes on my back. Everything I needed would be provided.
