What about the hundreds of thousands of Crimean Tartars that Stain had transported and put in camps? Almost half of them died. I guess it’s ok for us to tell the Ukraine to give their left leg to the tiger in hopes that the tiger will be satiated. That worked so well in 1938.
Put it in the very long line of regional atrocities going back to Ivan the Terrible. I’m NOT a Russia supporter, I’m a realpolitik proponent trying to raise the discourse from the kindergarten version being spewed in the MSM where Evil Russia is invading Innocent Ukraine.
