“It’s still going to end with Putin in charge of Donbas and AZOV in tatters, which is what he wanted.”

And then the world will be a happier place...

>No all this because Putin is a killer.

I agree, but the Atlanticists in the EU/US that want to change the Russian regime are out of their minds. Russians look back at our “democracy” in the 1990’s as a terrible time of chaos when slimy Russian thugs and Western investment capitol came in and picked the Soviet infrastructure away for pennies on the dollar. We all know Putin is a tyrant, but our hands are not completely clean as well, seeing how we overthrew the Ukrainian govt in 2014 and then Hunter Biden got paid a hot mil a year for the big guy’s continual blessing over Ukraine.

I’m sickened that so many FR are pure filth. Yeah it’s so awful those people are fighting for their freedom. /s

I don't see why we are not zotting the Russian trolls. It's okay to be against intervening in Ukraine, I get that. But to openly support Russia in brutalizing the population of Ukraine resisting against tyrannical Russian rule. C'mon.

I keep reading articles about Ukraine winning against Russia.

This can’t be true!

"And why does NATO even exist except for money and weapons laundering?"

***************************************************************

Exactly. It should have been shut down 30 years ago.

The original purpose of NATO was to keep the Russians from the Rhine, now it seems to be the Dneiper.

Agreed. NATO should be replaced by EU. USA and Canada can stay out of it.

The blaring alarms and screaming sirens of warning are that George Soros, Jao Bai-din, Hunter Biden, Paul Pelosi, John Kerry Jr., Christopher Heinz (Kerry), and Alex Vindman are tied in with Ukraine. That list of names is all anyone needs to know.

I don’t think anyone here is glorifying Russia, but the result is going to be the same whether the war takes a couple of weeks or a couple of months - Putin will take Donbass and make Ukraine sign a neutrality pledge. The point is now humans on both sides are being killed, and the media and NATO’s howling are simply stacking the bodies higher.

The media can dream all they want about Russia being beaten by the underdog, but Putin really is aiming for AZOV. You take out AZOV and Zelensky can negotiate without those neonazis stabbing him to death in the street (which they probably will once the treaty is signed, anyway).

The article is trying to glorify the Azov fighters, like they were being besieged and bombed and shot at for no good reason, and they are willing to “sacrifice their lives for Ukraine.” However, I think the good ppl living in the Donbass would disagree with that assessment. 🤣

The dire warning from the 36th Navy Brigade, which was posted to Facebook on Sunday,

No food, no water, no ammo, 50% casualties - but hey, at least they still have social media.

Russian Army could have flattened them and the whole city 47 days ago. If they were behaving in the way that Western Media accuses them. It seems they are attempting to avoid unnecessary civilian casualties and giving Ukraine holdouts all chances to surrender. At the cost of Russian lives.

I noticed the Russians spared the Donbas Iron Works

Putin’s a killer. So is George W Bush. So is Obama. So is DJT. So is FJB. So are all governments and elites who play with the cogs of society and lives of the “little people”.

F them all.

Imagine if NATO and Russia has simply agreed - Ukraine will be completely neutral and non-aligned. No interference from either side.

Ukraine would have had 30 years to develop peacefully, with no corrupt oligarchs, no George Soros, no Hunter Biden, and no war.

Sorry, there are STILL some countries willing to fight your Nazi-loving friends.

OK fine

>were chemical weapons used against you
>no

>you don;t have headaches, coordination issues, etc.?
>no

>how were you caught
>we surrendered

>any officers? raise hands.
>yes

>why did you try to break from the siege?
>the colonel told us to try

>what was the moral of the unit before you surrendered
>bad

>food, water, ammo, weapons
>almost none

Some technical talk with one of the officers

>state of vehicles
doesn’t get a proper answer

>who tried to run and who tried to give up
they identify themselves

then they talk about how many died from the different units and how (shot, shrapnel, etc.)

then how they were not sure where they were tried to run to, just running from the bullets, only their leader knew where they were going before they got caught

>why didn’t you give up sooner, you would have been warm already
>we didn’t have information that we could give up safely

>how many left at the factory
>we don’t know
they say some unit names
they also say they are some sort of radio/ew unit (not sure what they are saying, their Russian is terrible)

>are there wounded
then a couple of them show their wounds and say the Russians took care of them medically
one of the last guys says his wounds were from when their truck crashed and not from fighting
they also say they had no medics left in the factory

The term is as valid for those people as it was for the people of Paris, when we finally took back that city.

They’re disgusting and they act like punk kids making dumb comments on the internet.

A country is being attacked, people are dying defending their homeland, and these twisted idiots sit there saying things like: Good that they’re dying it will be over sooner, and what a shame we helped them and got them all killed.

It’s hard to resist telling then you hope it happens to them so I can sit here and say, oh good you’ll be dead soon, too bad you fought back.

But God give me the strength to have some degree of the Christian virtues they lack.
