Isn’t the simplest thing to agree on that both sides in a war have an agenda?

There was nothing visible in the video before the attack. So probably not a missile.

Probably an underwater delivery of a large mine.

In his last days, Hitler ordered the destruction of Germany (Berlin).

Evidence I’ve seen suggests the dam was already damaged from prior shelling and ruptured on its own. Each side seems stunned and unprepared by the event.

The dam was fine until Russians bandits stole it. We see once again here that where Russia goes only misery follows.

It appears the dam was under Russian control, and there is no report of a Ukrainian attack.

Yet all these arrogant Russia lovers or Ukraine haters lined up to TELL everyone that Ukraine did it.

I have never seen a more ignorant disgusting bunch in this forum.

>> Thing is: while the Soviets controlled Russia, and are generally associated with “Russia” in the minds of many, the Soviets, at least the people in charge, were NOT RUSSIAN.

>> With the partial exception of Lenin (partially Russian at most), none of the famous evil Soviets, from Stalin, to Trotsky, to Felix Dzerzhinsky, to Lazar Kaganovich, to Genrich Yagoda, et cetera et cetera, were Russian. Even Brezhnev and Khrushchev were not Russian (those last two were Ukrainian, which is interesting given current history). <<

Holy CRAP, the Russian apologetics are going overload here. Russia sure as Hell was in control over the Soviet Union. Leaders who subdued (i.e., committed genocide against) their own people were trusted and rewarded by a system Hell-bent on making the case to the world and their own people that the Russians in fact represented a racially diverse society ready for global control.

Russians (including Russian Jews) always retained an absolute super-majority of the politburo. The Congress of the Russian Social Democratic Party was, no surprise, all Russian. The first called a Politburo was six Russians and one Georgian, Stalin. The 1939-1952 (the most deadly one) was 11 Russians, 2 Georgians and an Armenian.

Even Stalin being called a “Georgian” requires an asterisk. He was born, raised and educated in Georgia. But he lived from 1905 mostly in Russia. Stalin was selected by Lenin in 1912 precisely in order to have an “international” Bolshevik party. In 1917, he was elected to represent Petrograd, Russia.

Basically, the only non-Russians in the Politburo were Stalin, and Stalin’s two close allies from the Baku region, Mikoyan, the “Armenian,” and Beria, the Georgian. (I put “Armenian” in quotes because he served in Baku, Georgia.)

Kruschev and Brezhnev were both Russians. Brezhnev was born in Ukraine, but to two Russian parents. Kruschev was born in Russia, to two Russian parents, although one labored in the Donbas while Kruschev grew up apart from him in Kursk.

Six Ukrainians, including one Jew, were added in the 1952 Politburo, among more than 20 Russians.

Why would Russia blow up an damn it controlled that was providing water for territory it controlled? That premise makes no sense whatsoever.

Don’t look so foolish. This explains it. Russia did it.

Zelensky Accuses Russia Of Putting Little Nazi Stickers On The Helmets Of All His Soldiers

https://babylonbee.com/news/zelensky-accuses-russia-of-putting-little-nazi-stickers-on-the-helmets-of-all-his-soldiers

Quote
KYIV — Tensions flared today after Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy accused Russia of sending espionage agents into his country to place little Nazi stickers on all his soldiers’ helmets.

“The fact that my entire army is wearing Nazi insignias on their uniforms and gear is entirely the fault of Russia,” said Zelenskyy while desperately scraping an “I love Hitler” sticker off the side of a tank. “This is an unforgivable provocation. I hereby call on the United States to drop all their atomic bombs on Russia immediately.” …

Yes, she did blow up real good. A placed charge.

How did the Ukes get into a Soviet controlled area to place a charge?

On the other hand the flooding frees up most of the troops down stream to counter the offensives elsewhere. Even if it’s just for a short period.
