Russia’s aviation chief said Friday that a Ukrainian drone attack was under way in the region of Chechnya at the time an Azerbaijani airliner attempted to land before diverting to Kazakhstan and crashing there earlier this week...

Yadrov, the Russian aviation chief, said that as the plane was preparing to land in Grozny in deep fog, Ukrainian drones were targeting Grozny, prompting authorities to close the area for air traffic.

Yadrov said that after the captain made two unsuccessful attempts to land in Grozny, he was offered other airports as an alternative but decided to fly to Aktau across the Caspian Sea...

Ukrainian drones had previously attacked Grozny, the capital of the Russian republic of Chechnya, and other regions in the country’s North Caucasus.

I don’t have any Nazi buddies.

No, not many of them left, after The Putin has had his soldiers, who are defending the new Russian Federation oblasts, deal with them and their stinking ideology...

FDR was the most psychotically evil would-be dictator that ever lived in America, yet he fought the Nazis in WW2. So it seems by your logic, we should’ve supported the Nazis.

Breaking news (apparently)...

...and in related breaking news, the Ruskie 'clown car' army has been stuck in the Ukrainian mud for 3 years, not racing through France or doing victory parades in Paris. Oh, and the French and Brits have nukes, and can defend themselves if the Ruskies ever find the forward gears on their 50-year-old tanks. Finally, you seem to have missed the fact that Biden and Ukraine patriots everywhere ARE supporting nazis (in Ukraine ;^)...

You’re the person who used Nancy Pelosi’s support for Ukraine as the reason not to support Ukraine. You did that. Not me. If you want to argue for isolationism, go ahead; I already said that would be one matter, and my problem was with the people so eager to suck off Putin that they republish enemy propaganda. That’s when you chose to use Nancy Pelosi’s support to promote your position. So now we know that you are simply an enemy propagandist who will insincerely use any tactic you can.

Tell you what, sport - get back to me when:
a) the Ruskie 'clown car' army invades some mud hole country that ACTUALLY IS a vital US interest (Ukraine is NOT), or
b) Russia declares war on the US.

In the meantime, keep on supporting the DEMOCRAT POLICY of US intervention in Ukraine, instituted by our DEMOCRAT POTATUS, and funded by Congress with 100% DEMOCRAT PARTY support. In other words...
