Who says they were killed by the Russian army?

Since they were killed when the Russians occupied Izyum it is pretty clear who killed them. But go ahead, deny it in your mind. Maybe that lets you play cheerleader for the army that killed that young woman and her two little girls.

Do you want pictures of Ukrainians killed last night by the Ukrainian army?

How ironic. "Who says they were killed by the Russian Ukrainian army"

See how that works?

We fomented a revolution/coup in 2014, caused a civil war and sided with the neo-Nazis and Ukrainian nationalists that wanted to exterminate the ethnic Russian population.

Do you actually believe that or is it just the latest talking point from your boss in St. Petersburg?

The neo-Nazis are in Russia, not Ukraine.

Neocons are/were led by Linda, McCain, Neuland. You’re just a useful Republican, like 80% of the GOP Senators, the ones who hate Trump.

I’m sorry, what was the name of that theater on Odessa, the one where your Azov friends burned down with 50 civilians trapped inside? Should I look it up?

Pakistan, Serbia, Iran, North Korea

Oh boy, that's a powerful set of nations. Pakistan is so tough that when the USA decided to fly some helicopters into the middle of the city where their military college is located and shoot up the neighborhood they did exactly nothing.

Serbia. Didn't we bomb them with impunity a few years ago? I think we even bombed the Chinese embassy.

Iran. Didn't our last president kill one of their top generals just to send them a message?

North Korea. Really? They need aid from the rest of the world to avoid starving to death.

That's some alliance you have there. And I can't imagine the powerful military force that a couple of African nations could add to the team. Watch out, here comes Zimbabwe.

Unfortunately for Taiwan, Biden already sent out arsenal to Russia, via Ukraine. Better luck next time!!!

I think your memory is failing. It was the Russians who bombed the theatre in Mariupol that was being used as a shelter for women and children.

“Not a big fan of facts, I take it?”

No, I am.

And of logic and reason, of which your argument has none.

Fact. Russia attacked and invaded.

Fact, you show more allegiance to a foreign entity than your own country.

“When they get stressed the pro-Russian posters tend to make errors in their English that native speakers don’t make.”

Yup; sooner or later they will expose themselves for who and what they are.

I loathe Putin, but I’m not buying the crap coming out of the MSM, the White House and the US government about this war anymore than I buy Putin’s BS. I lived through the Cold War and hated the Soviets with a passion, communism was and is a menace to humanity. But fighting a nuclear war over this corrupt cesspool that the West and Russia have been laundering money through for 30 years is beyond insane. It has no strategic interest to the US whatsoever. This blind, not considering does this war benefit the US or not idiocy has bleed us dry since 2001 of blood and treasure.

Well put. They both suck and it’s the innocent citizens who have had their lives upended by this Narcissist Fest. Anybody who can’t smell the rot and corruption that lies beneath this surface story is a useful idiot.

"Putin is a lot of things, a Communist isn’t one of them."

No, that assertion is unsupportable. You know I agree with 90% of what you say but here you are just wrong.

His father was NKVD! I mean, C'mon Man.

Putin joined CPSU nearly 50 freaking years ago. The KGB picked him up in law school; Andropov singled Putin out early for inculcation and that Soviet zombie's brief rule ensured Putin had a CPSU pathway to the top, even as the 'outsider'.

The key here is that Putin's Ozero group introduced him to kleptocracy, but as Putin was the one true believer in the group, and he needed those Ozero friends, he threaded the needle to FSB head at the precipice of the New Century ... then engineered the gravy train to the top, fueled solely by the rapid Soviet national resource consolidation unto Putin's Ozero friends and 'friends' once-removed.

It is as I have said elsewhere, as proof of this kleptocracy, Putin is feeding every possible military threat to his soon successor into the Ukrainian woodchipper, so that Gazprom and the rest are unmolested during the post-Putin transition.

Meanwhile, Putin suffers daily from chemobrain and debilitating cancer treatments. Schadenfreude.

Actually it was the United States military that did the bombing under the command of President Clinton along with our NATO allies.

I personally was not a big fan of the bombing, but it was pretty clear that Serbia had no significant military ability against NATO or the USA. The same is true today.

Where were you in 1998?

Well the KGB was the only game in town back then for a man of ambition, like Putin. As I said, if Putin was alive around the time of the Revolution, he would have worked for the Okhrana, hunting down Bolsheviks.

What I think however is that several of them would eagerly volunteer to nuke us. North Korea announced today it is now a nuclear country. For whatever that is worth.

That's also not a phrase an American would normally use.

Some young people call themselves "military brats" but that term doesn't apply to prior generations who have served.

Malarkey. Gen X-ers and Boomers call themselves military brats. It’s an easy way to explain things or to answer common questions such as “Where are you from?”

I’ve heard fellow military brats refer to themselves in generational terms. A few of my fellow brats had dads who were also raised as military brats and they’ll call themselves second generation military brats.

It is not an uncommon phrase in the brat world.
