“Daily Mail”

So that must mean he’s still alive.

But one question - what does the West have to gain by claiming he’s dead.

Seems pretty unwise to award good soldiers during war time, where it makes it easier to track their movements.

Zelenski is a puppet fascist who needs his neck stretched.

Smile...

(not to dismiss the loss of him in action)

I don’t get a kick out of seeing people killed on either
side in this.

If you are not a globalist, have you may begin to wonder if the world is better off or worse off with all these young Russians and Ukrainians being killed and maimed. If you are a globalist you are cheering all the death and destruction. Also have you wondered why the organizations such as the UN, the Vatican and the no war/ peace now types are not trying to negotiate or demanding an end to the carnage?

I tend to agree.

I would note that this War, more than any other by my observation, is being "fought" on the Western Mainstream Media Front while the Dying is done in the real world on Russian, Ukrainian and surrounding nations soil.

That makes a big difference in the loudmouth factor.

Interesting as I have not heard alot a out air to air combat in Ukraine….of course that does not mean it’s not happening I suppose. Alternatively perhaps it was AA that got him, or perhaps just arty while on the ground I suppose.

At any rate war sucks for those involved. I pray all warriors find peace in the afterlife, those now, those in the past, and those in the future.

Who cares? His and the problems of the Russians are not ours and should stir no interest in the hearts of real Americans
