they’re contributing to the hysteria of the average American.

That's a really sad and warped perspective you have. You don't want anyone to see the suffering of war - the dead children, the screaming women, the burnt corpses of men incinerated in their vehicles, or the words of a son as his father dies in the ditch after some Russians opened fire on a civilian vehicle.

It is OK not to care about suffering for some people. I am not in that category. I have always opposed the taking of innocent lives. You don't seem to care, and don't want people to be "hysterical". You are probably one of those people that don't care about what happens in abortion clinics either.

Remember Free: this war has gone on since the coup in 2014.

The Euromaidan snipers firing into their own protestors from the Ukrainia hotel. The utterly horrific Odessa massacre. The eight years of varying hot and cold war against the LPR and DPR republics. The children memorialised in the Alley of Angels.

If one were casting about for someone to blame for all this death and horror - my money would be on Obama. The same man that created & armed ISIS, and set it to ravage Syria.

He did this for the same reason that he backed the Ukrainean coup - to control who Europe buys its energy from.

Also: thank you for mentioning Abortion.

That's the real war that humanity has been waging against itself. For decades.

Britain suffered ~186,000 casualities per year in WW1. We appropriately commemorate this with red poppies, tear-jerking stories such as "The Testament of Youth", and so on.

But now we (in Britain) inflict 200,000+ casualities a year to ourselves, and nobody even notices. No ground changes hands - just day after day of senseless murder, with no end in sight.

Your post was just another example of your juvenile mindset. We don’t share similar beliefs about who the innocent party is in this skirmish, so I must be a heartless cynic who supports abortion.

For someone who professes to care about suffering so much, you’re remarkably sanguine about the pain the Russian soldiers inside the 56 tanks must have felt when the Ukrainians destroyed them. To be burnt alive inside a tin coffin must have been excruciating. Yet you express absolutely no sympathy for those men, only for the Ukrainians, who obviously aren’t free of cruelty either judging by the way they dispatched their enemy and then gloated about it on social media.

I suggest you stop paying attention to the Ukrainian fairy tales the media is doling out daily and instead do your own research about what’s really happening in an area that’s 7000 miles away. You obviously are a person who is overly emotional and easily manipulated, and someone like that definitely shouldn’t be engaging in the sordid and ghoulish realities of war.

You’re comparing war fatalities with abortion?

In modern war civilians casualties are difficult to avoid.

People are murdering their own babies!

Do you see a difference?

I have no doubt that the abortion numbers, since this invasion started, far exceed the deaths of combatants and non-combatants in this war.

Read 2 Kings, and see how God allowed the power and greed of idolatrous nations to take down disobedient Israel, and then Judah.

But with Klaus Schwab, its basically, Let me show you how to rid the world of 6 1/2 billion ‘usless eaters’. That man, and others like Soroz are a huge reason our country (and otgers) are being systematically ‘attacked’.

The problem is “selective compassion”.

There is a lot of war and suffering and has been since homo sapiens walked out of the caves—the issue is what folks choose to get concerned about and what they don’t.

If the mass media drives your “compassion” then you are a sucker for propaganda.
