A body of the piece was left at the site...because it is so long....but this comment toward the end nails it.

Despite the best offers of liberal interventionists like the New York Times’ Nicholas Kristof, who attempted to reframe war amputees as an indicator of Ukrainian fearlessness, rather than unambiguously grim symbols of an utterly catastrophic situation, Western citizens are increasingly repelled by the deluge of pro-war propaganda.

The russians are no doubt using mines to channel the ukes into the kill zones. A tactic as old as war. Channel the enemy.
In any case, this should never have started. If only neutrality had been declared before any life was lost.

...To say nothing of the American taxpayer. This war is costing us an arm and a leg.

This entire war is the biggest waste of life on both sides.

Egos and Megalomaniacs on both sides should be held accountable with their own lives.

How many times are pro-Kremlin freepers going to post the same article from the same far left wing blog?

The Grayzone is an American fringe, far-left news website and blog, founded and edited by American journalist Max Blumenthal. The website, initially founded as The Grayzone Project, was affiliated with AlterNet before becoming independent in early 2018. It is known for its critical coverage of the US and its foreign policy and sympathetic coverage of authoritarian regimes. The Grayzone has downplayed or denied the Chinese government's human rights abuses against Uyghurs, published conspiracy theories about Venezuela, Xinjiang, Syria, and other regions, and published pro-Russian propaganda during the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Grayzone writers such as Blumenthal and Aaron Maté acted as briefers on behalf of the Permanent Mission of the Russian Federation to the United Nations at UN meetings organised by Russia.
