You were sent an asinine remark regarding "PRO-RUSSIAN INVASION propagandists," which is of course the kind of name-calling this thread has bemoaned from others.

Couched in "prayer," such verbiage is a slur, intended at "someone" by clever wording.

Given the "daily thread amen™" focus on a Swiss-resident Ukrainian pilot who is not "serving" in his nation's war shows the dissonance in a self announced minister. But one should note, here in America today, even the adjective "Methodist" and the profession "minister" can be words so misused as to sometimes mean quite a horrid thing.

I cite a news item, which I'd posted to another thread: "Apostate Incursion: ‘Pastor’ Says She ‘Felt God's Presence’ While Aborting Her Two Children," Harbinger's Daily, 15 August 2023.

Not every minister is wholly good and decent. And, as the classic tale of Medea as well as the well-known "judgment of Solomon" in which one "mother" was willing to see a child die to win an argument, wrapping one's self in the mantle of "mom" and "rev" do not prove anything.

I do not find you a "pro-Russian invasion propagandist." I note she didn't dare actually call this either. Until she does with the courage of her convictions, she is merely "blowing smoke."

As several Freepers have observed on many different threads, time will tell. This daily focus rooted in a Swiss-resident vlogger is "war porn," quite like one finds from others.

Time will tell.

During the Covid push there was some Freeper who was always posting about how we must all trust Fauchi and the vaccine makers.

What ever happened to him?

There were a few of those. They were (are) probably employed by Big Pharma.

I see one in particular who pops up defending the vax and incorrectly calling us “anti-vaxxers” every time there’s an article about it. He’s still around. 😖

Yes, putting prayer to those slurs gives me the creeps. I’m a Christian who falls short every day, but seeing people wind prayers into hateful comments makes my skin crawl.

I’ve never seen Rocco post anything remotely pro-Russian or pro-invasion. Like me, I’m pretty sure he finds both Russia and Ukraine to be corrupt. Some of these Ukrainians and their camp followers here try to insist that those of us who don’t support Zelensky and don’t support our tax dollars going to that corrupt sinkhole are pro-Russian, when that couldn’t be farther from the truth.

Then again, the truth doesn’t seem to be very important to some of these folks.

Armed Forces liberated Urozhayne, - Ministry of Defense
Ukrainian defenders liberated Urozhayne in Volnovakha district of Donetsk region.

This was reported by Deputy Minister of Defence Hanna Malyar, Censor.NET reports.

“Urozhayne has been liberated. Our defenders are consolidating their positions. The offensive continues,” she wrote in a telegram.

The village of Urozhayne belongs to the Velykonovosilkivska settlement military administration of the Volnovakha district of Donetsk region. The settlement has been under occupation since March 2022.

--- "...the truth doesn't seem to be very important to some of these folks."

What is interesting is the curation of threads. Though her next thread is posted and comments received, as one can see form the comment just above, she returns to a previous thread to curate. Seems very important to her. given the general view over the last many months that the front hasn't moved significantly though daily (Davydov'd each day). Promoting YouTube videos is not aiding the distant war effort, to be sure, any more than a Ukrainian pilot resident in Switzerland for many years. Click donate.

Observing this behavior builds a profile over time.

VIDEO WITH SUMMARIZED COMMENTARY

16 Aug: It’s official! Ukrainians LIBERATE TOWNS. IMMEDIATELY PUSH DEEPER | War in Ukraine Explained

Reporting from Ukraine
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DrTZ8saEvQw

⚠️ Watch RFU in 20 languages: https://www.youtube.com/@RFU/channels

I am Ukrainian. My country has been invaded by Russia. In this video I will tell you what happened on the five hundred thirty ninth day of the war.

Day 539: Aug 16

Today there is a lot of news from the south.

FIRST of all, today, the Ukrainian General Staff finally confirmed that Ukrainians established total control over Urozhaine. The Ukrainian 35th marine brigade, which was primarily responsible for the operation, released a video showing how Ukrainians enter and raise the Ukrainian flag above the village.

Russian sources reported that Ukrainians did not stop there and almost immediately started attacking Zavitne Bazhania. Recently released geolocated footage shows how Ukrainian drone operators took advantage of the Russian retreat and hunted down several armored fighting vehicles on their way to Zavitne Bazhania. The second armored fighting vehicle tried to use a different road to avoid getting into the controlled zone, however, it turned out that Ukrainians established fire control over this road as well, so the vehicle got destroyed. Russian sources released footage showing how the Russian Air Force dropped several bombs on Staromaiorske and Urozhaine to prevent Ukrainians from advancing on Zavitne Bazhania.

However, taking Zavitne Bazhania is not currently the main goal of Ukrainians. As we have seen repeatedly on this section of the front line, Ukrainians never pushed into the lowlands first. If we look at the topographic map, we can see that Zavitne Bazhania is located precisely in the lowlands.

Given such a settling, the main goal of Ukrainians is to expand their control over hills east and west of the river in order to force Russians to abandon the settlement virtually without a fight. Recent geolocated videos show that Ukrainians targeted Russian ATGM positions east of Urozhaine and destroyed Russian reinforcement in the region. This is a strong indicator that Ukrainians are preparing to move into this region next.

Interestingly, some Russian sources noted that Ukrainians conducted a reconnaissance-in-force operation north of Novodonetske. As a result, Russians lost control over at least one strong point south of the river, which means that the settlement is currently in a salient, so Russians are very vulnerable.

In the meantime, Russians continued striking Ukrainian ports and blocking ships from entering Ukrainian waters to prevent the export of grain. Today Russians once again struck the harbor in Reni, which is right on the Romanian border. Even though Ukrainian air defense shot down most drones, some of them still managed to hit the grain terminals and destroy thousands of tons of grain.

Yesterday, the target of the Russian strike became Odesa. Apart from destroying the infrastructure in the harbor, Russians also struck an oil depot and a local supermarket. Recently, one ship tried to enter the Ukrainian harbors in spite of Russian threats. As a result, Russians opened warning fire and then sent a helicopter Ka-29 with an assault squad to search the ship. There was nothing on the ship in any way connected to weapons, which is why they had to leave it alone.

In the meantime, Ukrainians conducted a HIMARS strike on a Russian Black Sea base. The base is located on the southern shore of the Kherson region. The base was used as a training camp, and as can be seen from the drone footage, Russians were at the shooting range when they got hit with HIMARS. After dozens of soldiers were killed and wounded, the rest tried to hide in the buildings. Unfortunately for Russians, this was the second target of the HIMARS crew.

Interestingly, this is already the second case when Ukrainians are freely sending reconnaissance drones along the shore and destroying unsuspecting Russian troops. It seems like even after Ukrainians wiped out 5 camps on the Dzharylhach Island, Russians still failed to adjust and did not take steps to decrease forces concentrations in the region.

Good catch! It makes you wonder how many times that repetitious stunt is conducted throughout any given day. That is spam on steroids.

It’s got up be a control-freak thing, inserting that spam into places after other people post. But what purpose does it serve? Quite bizarre.

Excellent sleuthing, FRiend.

"I’ve never seen Rocco post anything remotely pro-Russian or pro-invasion. Like me, I’m pretty sure he finds both Russia and Ukraine to be corrupt."

You're correct on both counts. Both countries are extraordinarily corrupt crapholes filled with nasty people whose souls have been cauterized and consciences dulled by the 80 years of the Godless communism most of them accepted as their societal blueprint.

My stance is simple and clear: Not one penny more of US taxpayer money - in any form - should be sent to Youcrayne in support of its war with Russia. Not our circus nor will it ever be since all the bullcrap about how Putin is just like Hitler, hellbent on expanding across and capturing Europe, is an absolute fantasy, one being pushed only by ageing Cold Warriors living in the past and pro-Youcrayne propagandists and fantasists.

Russian combat-reconnaissance major Tomov “surrenders” positions of Russian Federation.

Ukrainian soldiers conducted an operation in the occupied Kozachy Lager, Kherson region, and captured a reconnaissance commander, Major Tomov.

The video shows the major marking on the map in detail where the invaders were located, Censor.NET reports.

https://storage2.censor.net/video/3/130823_yjd.mp4

The operation was carried out by Ukrainian special forces on 8 August. Our soldiers landed on the left bank in motorboats and, using a Russian radio, called for “help”. A detachment of ten Russian soldiers led by Tomov arrived on the spot in an armoured personnel carrier and fell into a trap, and the major was captured in the battle.

The Russians then searched for their major and even published fake videos that were supposed to confirm that he was fine. But the network quickly discovered that the videos were old.
