Rail transportation is not exactly a safe way to get around during a war. The movement of supplies, troop replenishment, fuel, etc...are the reason rail lines are primary targets.

The Ukraine resistance is also largely a civilian standing army handed weapons to shoot at Russian soldiers. As such most civilians are military targets.

Horrible yes. A tragedy yes. War creates tragedies on a massive scale. If war did not, everyone would be at war.

As for the facts in any situation I don't trust anyone. We still can't get a straight line of truth about what goes on in this country. The authorities in control have a complete content grip in reporting and legal process. The duty of a free press bound to report facts was scrapped long ago. It doesn't exist. Everything is propaganda from both sides of everything right down to what your kid is doing in the 2nd grade. We're all just pawns while the authoritarians play.

I’m just happy that Bucha is in the past. I’m sick to death of hearing about that “atrocity.” 🤣

You said: “ The Ukraine resistance is also largely a civilian standing army handed weapons to shoot at Russian soldiers. As such most civilians are military targets.”
Josef Goebbels would be proud of your logic, Geneva conventions be damned.

That's a common talking point these days. I wonder who thought it up?

If you actually believe that then you have to also believe that you don't really know anything about anything. You don't know who won the Superbowl, you don't know who a guy named Donald Trump is, because maybe he never was the President and you just believed the news that said he was.

And really you don't know if the 9/11 attack ever happened, of if the stories from people who claim to be victims of crimes are actually true or not. So you really can't comment on anything, since you don't know anything, including what your own kids are doing if you have any.

I suspect you actually know quite a bit, but are just repeating a talking point. Why is that?
