Russian Journalist Gets Six Years for Accusing Russia of Ukraine Theater Bombing

It was a setup
The people herded into the shelter reported it was detonated internally, not bombed
AZOV running the city was looking for atrocities to blame on Russian war crimes

Please use your brian.
Russia wanted to capture and liberate this city.
Not to kill children.

Showed great restraint cleaning out Azovstal where civilians were being held.
Opened numerous safe passage evacuation corridors…or tried to.
Nazis shelled them.
Rescued many civilians who had been physically and deliberately sealed into basements, entrances mined.
Russians are still clearing mines and booby traps as they rebuild Mariupol.
We are not supporting the good guys here…but nazi nationalists who hate much of the population in the “ separatist” republics.

Btw…Saddam Hussein did a lot of the same crap, to blame the US for war crimes

[DIRTYSECRET]

If she lied she should go to jail.

[silverleaf]

I suspect her harsh sentence came from more than mere lying …or being mistaken in her investigation

As a true journalist she would have had access to numerous witnesses

Her motivation for publishing this account….to discredit her government and incite public anger…would have been a serious factor

So you're A-OK with reporters getting sent to gulags for "discrediting their governments" and "inciting public anger"?

[lump in the melting pot]

Did you assume...

No, I read the article. I know it's tough for you, reading in a second language that uses the Roman not Cyrillic alphabet, but it's right there in the first paragraph, that the journalist sent to gulag for, basically, not toeing the Kremlin party line, is a girl.

Are you saying that the Russian journalist is a Ukrainian?

Or were you too stupid to figure out that Revel was talking about a generic Ukrainian journalist?

Revel wrote: "If he had been a Ukrainian blaming Ukraine then Zelensky would have had him executed."

I'll let you work that out while you're slowly mouth-breathing to get your brain oxygen levels up.

Why are you posting photoshopped images of General Milley and claiming that he’s a transsexual?

[kiryandil]

Why are most all of you NeverTrumpers in the neoconned camp, too?

That is just too weird, that you guys all check the same boxes.

[yuleeyahoo]

You’re right, they should give them awards like the U.S. does.

2018 Pulitzer Prizes for National Reporting

Staffs of The New York Times and The Washington Post

For deeply sourced, relentlessly reported coverage in the public interest that dramatically furthered the nation’s understanding of Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election and its connections to the Trump campaign, the President-elect’s transition team and his eventual administration. (The New York Times entry, submitted in this category, was moved into contention by the Board and then jointly awarded the Prize.)

Watch your foul mouth, M-tacnik.

You xoxos can't seem to control your language - maybe it has something to do with the constant stress of looking over your shoulder for the Azov press gangs roaming the streets where you're at...

You clearly dropped the ball in your responses to both me and Revel.

My high school pal is an ESL prof - want me to have him get in touch with you for a few lessons?

"Why are most all of you NeverTrumpers"

I voted for Trump but won't do so again, unless he disowns the crazies and states a consistent desire to defend the USA and allies against the psychopathic Russian rampage.

"...in the neoconned camp, too? That is just too weird, that you guys all check the same boxes."

Your jargon's getting too weird. Is that from the QAnon booby hatch herd?

[familyop]

Russians are arrested and sent to gulags for 10 years for criticizing the crimes committed by their military forces, while you slander our military forces. You put your anti-American hatred on display here.

[familyop]

You also emphasize the contrast between free speech in the USA and atrocities against free speech in Russia.

I hate fat perfumed princes who get our troops killed while wearing their red rubber command noses in Kabul.

Can I get you a fainting couch, Sally?

Why don't you drop by the DC Lubyanka and tell the kids in there about "free speech in America"?

[kiryandil]

You were trashing Trump in June of 2016, well after most of your kind were shown the door.

As for signing blank checks for neocon adventures and "projects" in Europe, the reason your neocon pals got rid of Trump in the coup is because he wouldn't play their blood-spattered game of chicken with other nuclear powers.

What makes you think he would go along with those demonic creeps now?

Your jargon's getting too weird. Is that from the QAnon booby hatch herd?

Coming from a ZAnon, that's pretty rich.

Back to your full-blast zeeping, Zeeper dude.

Some of the things that he said did arouse suspicion.

"I hate fat perfumed princes who get our troops killed while wearing their red rubber command noses in Kabul."

I despise the effeminate hippie creeps who pressure the government to interfere with defense efforts.
