Yes, there is a war on. Why do you ask? One would think it’s self-evident.
Yes, there is propaganda from both sides, that’s one way you know it’s a war of some kind, right, since “truth is the first casualty of war”.
So, given that you’re rebroadcasting the Russian’s story as fact, where does that place you?
Certainly, the Russians might have shot down one of their own … again. Did you hear the latest rumor? Apparently, the Russians have lost 6(!) more aircraft: 4 Su-34s and 2 Su-35s over the last few days from Feb. 17-19.
Russians are claiming that 2 of those, a Su-34 and a Su-35, were shot down by friendly fire. Seems that one of the air defense crewmen had a birthday and they were celebrating, got sh!t-faced drunk and shot the 2 planes down by “accident”.
Oops …
you know what was unheard of? Russia taking evidence to back up their casus belli to UN (which was rejected) by the west as propaganda because of their culpability, which by the way, is more than the US does in it’s bombing campaigns in sovereign countries.
