If the US bombing some foreign country in the past was an act of terrorism then Russia doing it right now is an act of terrorism, and it is worse because the world is supposed to be progressing.
If as you say the US efforts in other nations were bad, then Russia's actions today are worse.
The Russians are losing and running home
The Russians are losing and ..........
Oh wait, never mind
So what? Sounds like it might be a dumb EPA policy. But we have plenty of fuel oil in New England.

Your country is BROKe!
What part of BROKE you do not understand?
You got pawned, that is all that matters.
Enjoy that cup of borscht, I hear the weather in St. Petersburg is cold this time of year.
You are a no good neocon troll.
I didn’t excuse any actions, by the US or any other country.
Bombing in war by belligerents is not terrorism.
War is not a moral, or amoral enterprise, either way.
YOU ascribed a moral dimension to these events. I just put you in that logic box (if...then) to show hypocrisy.
I subscribe to the “might makes right” foreign policy of Realpolitik.
Thanks to our Freedom-Spawning Bombs all those places are now prosperous Jeffersonian republics and strong allies to America! And special thanks to China for highlighting the unbroken string of American foreign policy successes!
Do you have a time stamp for those pictures?
In fact...which image would you guess is easier to misrepresent, a normal lights on night time image outside an apartment in Kiev or several city wide blackout images from various angles/sources?
-btw ABC News reported blackout conditions in Kiev last night...are they now part of the Russian propaganda effort?
Look at his tweet again. He says “now”. He posted it 20 hours ago. As of 5 hours ago, only 25% of the city is still without power.
It’s absolutely incredible that 9 months after invading a much smaller neighbor, After losing 10s of thousands of its own troops and thousands of its best military vehicles, Russia is currently retreating from territory it gained and is only able to impact Kiev with long range missile strikes. They’ve essentially fallen into the same failed strategy that Hitler resorted to toward the end of WW2. Try to terrorize your opponent’s civilian population by lobbing missiles into cities with the hope they’ll hit something significant. It will work the same as it did for Hitler. It simply cements the resolve of your opponent as they realize their enemy has no good intent for them and won’t go away until they are defeated. At this rate, Russia will end this debacle with a badly depleted military and the lose of Crimea. Brilliant strategy.
So you should welcome NATO and the USA sending in to Ukraine whatever arms it takes to crush Russia. That will save NATO and US taxpayers billions of dollars in the future.
By your logic we should send Ukraine a few dozen atomic warheads and ballistic missiles so they can finish off Russia if necessary.
You aren’t keeping up very well. In the last 24 hours Ukraine has restored water and electrical power to almost all of Kiev. Three of its four nuclear power plants are on line and supplying the national grid. Power has been restored to at least 50% of the country by Thursday evening with repairs progressing rapidly.
So basically 24 hours after Russia launched a massive missile attack (it can’t use aircraft because it has lost too many) on Ukraine’s civilian infrastructure, Ukraine is well on its way to repairing what was damaged. Meanwhile, the Russian military continues to get pushed out of all its gains on the ground. It is now establishing defensive lines in Crimea fully anticipating Ukraine will move into the peninsula. You’ll call it more “strategic retreating”. The rest of the world will marvel at the ineptitude of the Russian military. After 9 months Russia still doesn’t control airspace over Ukraine. It had to call up 300,000 reserves to replace the massive loses it has taken, and it still is losing territory every day. It’s an epic failure of historic magnitude. The only real question is how long it takes before Putin “unexpectedly” passes away. Won’t be long now. Russians don’t tolerate leaders who lose.
