Russian MASSIVE ‘Retaliation’ Air Raid Campaign Continues Unabated for a Second Night – Trump Says Ukraine ‘Gave Putin a Reason To Go In and Bomb the Hell Out of Them’

“Russia lobbing a few missiles it cant even target properly into random residential apartment buildings is not exactly something to brag about. It is about the technology level of Hamas in Gaza.”

Ukraine shouldn’t put military offices in residential buildings.

[adorno]

Ukraine hits valid military targets and Russia responds by terror bombing cities; and you think that Zelensky is corrupt?

Terrorism is never about playing fair. Terrorists always target the civilians and civilian infrastructure. Military targets might suffer damage at times, but that's by chance when a civilian target happens to be nearby. Bin-laden and Al-Qaeda didn't primarily target military sites when they struck NYC. Putin is not targeting military sites in Kyiv, or Kharkiv.

Putin is about targeting civilians, who he hopes can get the Ukraine government to surrender. The attacks in Israel on Oct 7 1023, was not about military targets. It was the civilians, 100%.

Putin may be the biggest terrorist of the 20th century and so far in the 21st century.

All of this because Ukraine had the gall to become independent back in 1991.

Donetsk and Lughansk voted for Independence from Ukraine…..hypocrisy at its best….in any case, Vlad will keep his ethnic Russian provinces, like it or not.

….time to move on before Ukraine gets the good old fashioned western style Yugoslavia treatment….why does Ukraine keep committing suicide?

[adorno]

Not when they start targeting Russian nuclear forces- and without informing Trump. Ukraine is now done,

I doubt Putin feels the same. Putin knows he's got a fight on his hands for the foreseeable future, which is no doubt many years.

The Russian economy is near collapse, and unable to sustain a military which is already struggling to stay in the fight. Ukraine has demonstrated that they can keep the Russians at bay, and perhaps outlast the Russians in the fight. Plus, Ukraine has the support of many EU nations, which together make the Russian economy look lilliputian. Russia cannot win this war, even if Ukraine has a much smaller military.

LMAO

Put down the crack pipe, I haven’t read a single story that any military officers were being targeted, much less hit.

Oh wait! I keep forgetting, you are not a true believer! You are being paid by Putin to post this drivel! Why do I even respond!

[adorno]

Ukraine shouldn’t put military offices in residential buildings.

You mean, in schools and homes/residential-buildings and hospitals and in the work place and on playgrounds, or anywhere in Ukraine?

[delta7]

You are funny.

[Petrosius]

Those Russian “nuclear” forces have been bombing Ukraine for three years. Sorry, fair targets.

[adorno]

Donetsk and Lughansk voted for Independence from Ukraine

Bull!

That's been debunked many times, right here on FR and millions of times on the internet, and by the facts.

Do you think the Russians voted for Putin in any of the shame elections that occurred during his time in power? Do you think Putin would allow the 'so-called Russians living n Ukraine' to vote for anyone other than a Putin stooge. or to favor Russia's stance on anything?

If you really believe any of what you posted, I've got a bridge in Manhattan that I can sell you, for just one dollar, or for just a few rubles..

Zelensky is just inviting more serious destruction of his country. Ukraine has zero chance of winning this so this latest attack is pointless. How many more Ukrainians will now die because of Zelensky’s actions?

[ConservativeMind]

Ukraine upped the game, so now Russia is, too.

The quicker this escalates, the quicker it is over.

Zelensky, just make sure you never stop the fighting. We want you to fight until there is no one left.

Remember, you do not want to stop this war until you have gotten all of Ukraine back. You are almost there. Just keep telling yourself that.

[adorno]

You are funny, and 100% correct.

You forgot to complete the sentence, so I did it for you.

[Jumper]

Every 5-6 weeks the Russians do a 3-4 day misisle and drone campaign.

The real retaliation will affect the British, Ukrianians and a few members of the US intel community if Trump doesn’t reign them in.

Russia is conducting a master class in world diplomacy. It started when the Global South and developing world leaders saw how the weaponization of the USD and trade was used and the stealing of 300B in Russian frozen assets. Brics has provided half the world as customers. Russia has since defeated the western sanctions, and instead of being provoked into some Grand Ukrianian Like Jesture or Spectacular Sound Bite, they have very quietly destroyed 20,000 combat vehicles provided the US and Europe on their way to Kiev.

[Jumper]

I think Putin is coming around to that, that he is slowly coming to the conclusions that the Ukrainians are no longer their brothers. Corrupted by the West isn’t the narrative but it has a place in starting this conflict.

[AAABEST]

The worst consequence, for Ukraine, from their attack on Russia’s strategic assets is the loss of perceived moral high ground.

However Russia responds now can be seen as justified. The “Zelenski wants peace” meme is flushed down the toilet.

[dforest]

We all know Ukraine does the same thing. Just a few days ago, the day before the peace talks, Zelensky droned the hell out of Russia.

They can do that, but Zelensky did it then to derail the talks. Then he spent a few days strutting around and bragging how brilliant he is.

We were hearing remarks like “bring it, Russia”.

Well they did, and now Zelensky is acting like a big ole baby and wants pity.

[adorno]

Zelensky is just inviting more serious destruction of his country. Ukraine has zero chance of winning this so this latest attack is pointless. How many more Ukrainians will now die because of Zelensky’s actions?

Stop being so much in denial. The Ukraine strikes into deep Russian space which destroyed so many bombers, was a huge success, which even the Russian military generals have to admire and consider a huge success for their 'enemy'. Tiem for YOU too to face the facts.

Russia cannot win this war, and they'll suffer many times more damage to their military bases, if Putin doesn't stop. Russia is very vulnerable to attacks from many different directions, and even within their ranks, there are many Ukraine sympathizers, and even Russian personnel who want Russia to be defeated. The attacks deep into Russia did not happen with just Ukraine's people. Think about that. Russia has it's enemies embedded deep within their ranks.

[Jumper]

If Putin wanted to target civilians he would just bomb the hell out of Kiev untile it was a smoldering mass like Berlin.

By many western media accounts, Ukriane has killed more Russian civilians than Russia. By many counts Russia has killed fewer civilians than the US did the first day in Desert Strom.

Russia has yet to Shock and Awe Ukriane by disruption/destruction of all bridges, utilities, rail, ports, and destruction of the water supply - but NATO does this.

Since Bill Clinton unleashed NATO in the Balkins, the west has been dictating to the world its terms of globalism.

Ukraine is as much about the breakup of the inderdependence across the globe and the rise of both Russian and Chinese to near parity with the US. Thus the US has first targeted Russia with the known pivot to China.

Our News has always told us that we would go to war with Russia and China for the past 15 years.

Zelinski is tool of the west and fool. The west as in the US needs to get rid of the corruption of the Biden supporters who made this war possible. Had they prosecuted Biden for his activities in Ukraine this war MIGHT NOT HAVE HAPPENED. But that was the Plan, the war with Russia, way badck in 2014.

[StAnDeliver]

"Trump also expressed hope that the conflict will bot devolve into a nuclear war."

Well, since it has been a bot war...

[dforest]

Problem is, they sold themselves out to the highest bidders and those bidders could not wait to move in and set up shop. Zelensky has sold the whole place. No matter who wins, those people will never have an independent and free country.

They are dying fighting a proxy war for nothin’. Whole thing is gross and disgusting.
