Russian troops have launched an attack on a theatre in the Ukrainian city of Mariupol where as many as 1,200 civilians including women, children and the elderly, were taking refuge.

>In fact I assume that any “conservative” on FR spend their days fantasizing about slobbering all over Putin’s schnutz and wishing they could be his chambermaid.
Most neocons feel this way

D. AZOV stopped all civilians from leaving Mariupol to increase the chance of something like this happening
I’m not claiming it isn’t abhorrent. I’m just refuting the argument that we shouldn’t believe Russia is doing that because it (allegedly) is not in their interests.
I understand your sentiment.
We won’t know what really happened for months or years. All is propaganda lies at this point.
But if it is true that the Azov formation is actually Nazis, real live ones, then more power to the Russians in that particular fight.
The cognitive dissonance & lack of critical thinking by the Putinistas used to be shocking
There are always a few fruits and nuts in the bowl. The left is never defined by theirs because they have top cover from Fake News. We are not so lucky.
There is great harm being done to the MAGA movement by Putinists at the moment because they make us all look like fringe crazies because average GOP voters are repulsed by Putinist Russia and its campaign of mass murder in Ukraine. This love affair with Putin will translate into electoral losses for MAGA candidates going forward if it continues.
Considering it contains an American eyewitness interview,I sure hope so...you lying pos.
Now go shill your deep state BS to someone else.
“Not with Europe on the brink of going nuclear (something he prefers to avoid) and the horrific media coverage.”
I don’t think Putin gives a sh!t about bad press. It’s not like he has to worry about elections.
They banned me from twitter for giving peer-reviewed paper on what covid is. I can’t see the post.
LOL, we didn’t go to war with Germany until we were attackd by Japan. We SOLD GB materiel, and the USSR.
“I don’t think Putin gives a sh!t about bad press. It’s not like he has to worry about elections.”
If the media drives the West to a nuclear war, as happening here to a large extent, and with 1/3 of the US already on board, then yes, Putin does have to worry, as he prefers to not have a nuclear war.
“How about you explain how a hospital gets blown up and only kills 3 people. You can use OKC for comparison (similar sized building being blown up).”
The majority of those killed at the Murrah Building died when the building collapsed. From what I’ve seen, the hospital — or what has been described as a hospital — came nowhere near collapsing.
Lol, some idiot with a website is telling Ukrainians they don't exist, obviously they are not listening.
True, it did partially collapse, but I still struggle with a death count so low in an active hospital - it’s not like you can evacuate everyone in 30 seconds if you know it’s incoming (if).
There’s a very weird streak of that on this forum these days…
A Ukrainian civilian militia (notable by lack of uniform) is holding captive an unarmed resident. His buddy shows up with a cell phone camera and starts filming everything while instructing him to beat the captive over the head with the butt of his rifle, which the first guy does. The man then gets up and flees for his life only to be shot at four times in the back. He falls to the ground, clearly wounded (legs appear to be broken) pleading. The buddy continues filming with his cell phone and the footage ends.
The footage was filmed from an elevated apartment in Kiev. The voice on camera informs that he was caught during a time when nobody is allowed to be out on the streets (even though it is daylight).
Make another burner account for Twitter. That's what I've done several times after being suspended.
And here comes the Putin propaganda brigade!
For a bit of reality, look at these videos and images from Ukraine as an antidote to drinking Putin's propaganda.

Yeah, these types of things often take on a life of their own, and can quickly get out of hand. WWI is perhaps the most tragic example.
