Ukraine war documentary headed to Capitol as lawmakers debate further aid

A new documentary that gives an inside look on the front lines of Ukraine’s fight against Russia is poised to be screened at the Capitol — just as lawmakers weigh providing more aid to the war-torn country.

In an exclusive clip from Bernard-Henri Lévy’s “Glory to the Heroes,” the French filmmaker and activist is seen as he embeds with Ukraine’s forces on the frontline this past summer.

Lévy is there as Ukraine’s military fire two French mortars linked to a drone.

“We struck. The first rocket fell 10 meters from the target,” one of the troops is heard telling Lévy.

“If we had more ammunition, we could finish the job for good,” the Ukrainian fighter adds.

The doc from 75-year-old author and philosopher Lévy details the “horrors of war, with a focus on the hopefulness of the Ukrainian citizens and their optimism in the face of senseless destruction,” according to promotional materials.

I’m sure this propaganda was sponsored by Mr.”T-shirt” Zelensky himself

Propaganda to justify more robbery of American citizens.

Why were there no war reporters on the Ukraine side on location?

That is because the Ukes were getting their butts kicked.

Why are we borrowing money to give away?

Let Ukraine borrow the money themselves.

The victims of Germany didn’t make that film, the war-mongering invader nation did.

I totally support Ukraine aid (have for two years); but the border needs to be secured first ...

I do hope they include clips of Zelensky on Dancing with the Stars.

“Will the ghost of Kiev be making a special appearance?”

Probably so. But if Congress wants to know the TRUTH about Ukraine, they can watch “Ukraine on Fire”, and then understand how much they’ve been lied to, even from people who were, supposedly, under oath.
