>Usual disclaimer about Southfront.

Darn right there’s a disclaimer on Southfront. In 2020, Trump’s own US State Department described SouthFront as part of Russia’s “disinformation and propaganda ecosystem.”

And yet the Putin Puffers keep linking from this obvious commie Pravda sibling and gobbling its lies whole.

Really sad to see good conservatives swallowing Putin’s lies hook line and sinker.

It doesn’t matter, Putin started this war and every death is on him.

This looks like a deliberate 'human mine' atrocity.

Except, where are the 1200 dead bodies?

Looks more like Azov staged the video of civilians sheltering there, moved them out, and then blew up the building to create the impression it was bombed by the Russians.

A reasonable analysis / check / comparison would be whether we created 3+ million (and going up fast) refugees* in a few weeks.

We did not.

I do seem to recall that in some cases we had to intervene in Iraqi vs. Iraqi reprisals.

Mariupol Deputy mayor claims 80-90% of buildings there are damaged or destroyed. Confirmable? How quickly is Google Earth (Pro) updating this stuff? Regular Google Earth images can be years old. They still show last year’s mid-spring flooding in my neck of the woods.

*3+ million is just those who’ve crossed into Poland, etc. God knows how many have not made it that far yet.

It is being reported on OANN news that the maternity hospital attack was a false flag operation ANYONE surprised!! The hospital had been evacuated weeks earlier Ukrainian solders were actually staying there AND the sign CHILDREN on the building was put there by the soldiers to try to fake out the Russians!! The propaganda machine in OVERDRIVE over this hospital dragging us further into this utter BS!!

Yep. This one’s a win for Putin, as it will keep the people who would likely be most effective vs. Putin, not to mention good for our country and our economy, out of office. PDJT being the most prominent.

In some respects (only some) the parallel to the neo-Nazis in Ukraine is remarkable: They are few in number, have almost no power, and are generally detested by ordinary West-leaning Ukes, but the propaganda value of Neo-Nazis is wonderful for Putin.

Here, the fringies (on various subjects, too) are wonderful propaganda value for the very people they (and largely I and I suspect you) oppose. It doesn’t help that we have out and out racists on this board - even more detested by average folks. :-(

Hi res sat photos of that hospital, taken ~4 hours B4 the bombing, show NO evidence of military activity at all. The crater correlates to a 1000 lb. (minimum) bomb. None of the vids in the immediate aftermath display any military equipment or damaged military equipment. No wounded / dead military are in evidence. But, the civilian vehicles in the sat photo are still there in the same spots (all heavily damaged, at least one burning, etc.) No way to rule out some troops housed somewhere in one of the buildings, but, no way this was any kind of significant defense point.

Putinistas please explain.

(This is gonna be good.)

My best to you too...You’re one of my favorites around here even if we don’t agree. I know we’re both thoughtful people and hearing your thoughts on things is always helpful to shed light on things and is always appreciated. :-)
