Putin’s Mariupol Massacre is one of the 21st century’s worst war crimes

> ...but who is unprofessional and undisciplined? <

I’ll live that answer up to others. But I can answer this, who is evil? It’s the person who started this bloody war. It’s Putin.

I say that with no joy. Before the invasion I was quite sympathetic to Russian concerns over NATO’s expansion. But that sympathy disappeared the instant Putin crossed an international border and started killing people.

Side note: By his very actions, Putin is a war criminal. And the same goes with George W. Bush regarding Iraq. War criminals come in many flavors.

The propaganda squad either says Putin is being crushed by the brave Ukraine people or he is guilty of war crimes when he wins.

This is third rate posturing.

Exactly— look for Paul Niland’s photo with the illustrious Evelyn Farkas (a@@) who tried to run for NY Congress for Nita Lowey’s vacated perpetual seat— and failed. The BIG mouthed Farkas who let fly the entire Russia Russia hoax.

The Atlantic Council is one of the NGO’s who benefited from fired Ambassador Voyanovitch’s “approval” for USAID money— which they kicked back to the DNC— 10% for the big a@@hole.
Through their partner— Burisma. Yes indeedie. Keep the billions coming for the kickback to finance the grifter’s party.

At some time in the future when a bit of truth enters the scene a lot of people are going to have egg on their faces.

[McGruff]

Oh please, the guy is a Ukrainian stooge.

At some time in the future when a bit of truth enters the scene

Truth is dead and has been since, oh, 2008 at least.

[cgbg]

It will be like arguing about the assassination of Archduke Ferdinand.

The ^%$#storm that appears to be heading toward us will make this whole discussion academic.

[Lurker]

Nazis….Nazis everywhere!

You sound like Chuck Schumer.

Fool.

[cgbg]

Yup—the modern approach to knowledge is to make &^%$ up and then howl “hater” and “extremist” if anyone disagrees with you.

[Penelope Dreadful]

What a crock of hyperbolic crap! There is a war going on, and this is a natural result of war. The West pushed this crap in the first place, and I do not blame the Russians for putting their foot down. The Ukrainians decided to hold the city rather than fight their way out of the city much earlier. Doo doo happens.

Actually, the sub’s first officer says to the captain:

“You arrogant ass. You’ve killed us!”

Now that the Azov Nazi scum have been removed and the eternal flame relit, Mariupol is slowly coming back to life.

Water and electric service is being restored, a regional police force is in place, clean up crews and food distribution centers are being organized, schools are open for an extended semester...even four lines of local bus service have resumed running.

The effete homo-globalists at the Atlantic Council and their useful idiots better get used to having their dreams destroyed as the map of Ukraine gets redrawn.

[Penelope Dreadful]

“Nazis….Nazis everywhere!”

No. There are not Nazis EVERYWHERE. But you are a nut if you do not recognize that there are Nazis in some places. Like the Ukraine.

You sound like those stupid black people who are still whining about 1619 and slavery, to explain why their neighborhoods are mostly crap places and they are doing so poorly. Never mind that whole 80% illegitimate birth thingy over the last few decades or the whole black kids acting like monkeys in school and not doing their homework so they will not be accused of acting white. You see, black’s problems are that they are NOT living in 2022.

The same is true of you! You are not living in 2022. You are stuck back there in the 1960s and the Strategic Air Command being able to launch every B-52 in less than 12 seconds or whatever.

Wake the F**K UP! It is 2022 and the Cold War ended back in the 80s. BUT, our Military Industrial Complex needs an ongoing ENEMY to keep the trillions of bucks flowing, just like they need the Black-Folks-Are-Helpless-Victims-Of-Racism bullsh*t to keep the trillions of bucks flowing to the Welfare State.

You need to pull your head out of your A$$ and live in 2022.

[Pollard]

Just posting what the entire msm was reporting up until recently. For a long time they said there was a neo-nazi problem in Ukraine. Now they say they’re freedom fighters.

“Oh please, the guy is a Ukrainian stooge.”

You are a dirty Russian.
