I am very calm and don’t need to pipe down.

Of all the scenarios Putin could come up with - he threatens women and children as human shields.

Who else have we only seen this disgraceful promise from before... hmm... oh yea, Russian allies Saddam Hussein and Iran.

You need to reevaluate your moral compass on just how low you are willing to sink in order to cover for Putin.

Of course, that is Russia Today's translation and should be questionable at the very least. I wish I could understand Russian myself so I don't have to rely on these translations. Here's Bizpac's version, which sounds a bit biased to me:

“We don’t want to do it, but we will, we will do it only in order to protect Ukrainian citizens. We will put their women and children in front of our troops, not behind, but in front and we will be hiding our solders behind them. I dare any Ukrainian commander to give an order to shoot at such crowd.”

And here's the version from FrontPage Mag:

"Putin: Listen to me. Listen to me carefully. I want you to correctly understand me.

If we reach that decision, only if we reach that decision, it will only be for the defense of Ukrainian citizens, let anyone from the military dare shoot at their own people which we will be behind, not in front but behind, let them try and shoot at women and children.

Let me see who in the Ukraine will give such an order."

And here's the raw video itself, which already has about 80,000 views and some comments that claim to understand what he's saying. (of course, it's Youtube so...who knows)

Well, well.....

I don’t cover for Putin, but this is the time to try and keep a clear head and actuallt t-r-y to understand where the different protagonists stand.

However, it is interesting to see how the war psychosis spreads. Even here at FR. It does not bode well.

Putin is extremely dangerous and obama couldn’t fight his way out of a wet paper bag

You of course are correct. There is no reason to take counsel with ignorant fools who will sell your freedom and their’s for nothing.

I don’t care about Putin’s threats. He’s already committed multiple war crimes. Invading his neighbor with a fifth column of soldiers with no insignia, naval blockading them, etc., etc. He belongs in a cell in the Hague for his actions in Ukraine.
