“This is part and parcel of what has been the brazen aggression on the part of the Russians where they have targeted civilians, they have targeted hospitals, they have targeted places of worship and THEY HAVE TARGETED JOURNALISTS,” he continued.”

When did any documentation accepted by the world place journalists on the same scale as sick, injured, or on a par with God? If you don’t want to be harmed, don’t go into the area where you could be. I have no sympathy for people this intentionally stupid.

” Must not acknowledge the Ukes are using civilians as human shields.”

Hmmm. Civilians live in cities. An invading army targets the cities. The cities’ defenders are in the city. So are the citizens. And that constitutes “human shields?”

The Ukes are deliberately firing missiles from civilian areas. They don’t have to. They consciously chose to put the missile launchers in cities.

The why is obvious.

They are pretty much surrounded, and are fighting to save their country and its capital. In a city, civilians are ubiquitous. So, by your logic, the defenders should (1) flee the city and get wiped out in the open; (2) surrender. I personally don’t believe in surrenders, especially when the bad guys have openly declared their intent to kill you regardless.

They're almost totally surrounded in Kiev. They chose to bring those rocket launchers into the city. They didn't have to. There's plenty of countryside the Russians do not control. Also, when did the Russians announce their intent to give no quarter to Ukrainian soldiers? The only ones I know that they said that about are the openly Nazi Azov Battalion.

It’s UN numbers. The image is blurry the way I copied it, but it’s UN numbers on both side.

I’m proud to say that when i arrived at Sequoia Nat Park i had a nice long urination on the Sherman tree. So much that i could barely work up a sprinkle for the Grant tree.Sherman’s atrocities are well documented. Those great generals u mentioned would had have limited opportunity as they weren’t often on union soil but i don’t know their war histories enough to be sure.

Ernie Pyle? OK maybe it wasn’t a hole between the eyes, maybe it was a series of holes since he was hit by a burst of automatic weapons fire. Point is the ‘journalist’ in Ukraine appears to have had articles of clothing removed, usually implying a blast of some kind.

LOL- Quantrill and anderson were outlaws who rode with the James brothers. Quantrill was decomissioned when he went rogue. Not a fair comparison-they small timers.As far as i know Forest and Wheeler were fine generals. I had family that served in Joe’s cavalry

You are aware, I assume, that Russia has labeled the Ukrainian government Nazis (and the Ukrainian president is Jewish!). Russia has said they will “wipe out” the Nazis in Ukraine. By extension, those who support the Ukrainian government will be see as Nazis, as well. It’s Russian logic. But, you are on record advocating for Ukraine’s surrender, and thus its elimination as an independent nation.

ROFLOL. Sad you cant read your sordid history of the barbarous acts the “fine” gentile south.

That would require an understanding of the English language reading skills.

BTW expert johnny. They were called Wheelers robbers for going around stealing from the very “citizens” they were proposed to had been defending.
And Forest is well known for the formation of a certain “secrete society” not often mentioned down in the land of cotton. Wont mention the fact of his attack on a certain fort where they took some prisoners of some the white officers but were ordered to kill all the “n@ggers” as you call them, after they attempted to surrender.

Could not agree more!
Why are we increasing the national debt to protect borders of other countries while our borders are bringing in 100,000 illegals every month? Wake up voters!!

if one wallows in the mud with a pig then both get dirty.
