UP to 40,000 Ukrainians have been snatched from besieged cities and forced into Russian slave labour in a war crime revealed by The Sun today.
Sergei Orlov, deputy mayor of devastated city Mariupol, spoke exclusively from his bunker yesterday to reveal the plight of civilians hauled into enemy territory.
And he said hundreds of children are now lost and alone in the clutches of ruthless Russian troops after being forced away from their families.
Mr Orlov told the Sun: “Russian troops are bursting into cellars and basements where our people are hiding like frightened mice and telling them: ‘You have 15 minutes to leave.’
“If they refuse to come out the buildings are destroyed, leaving families entombed.
"We have made contact with people who have told us what is happening — they are being taken off to Russia to work for the state in depressed areas.

So, refugees, slavery... What's next? Rape? Murder of civilians? Setting up gas chambers a-la the Nazis? Just wondering how over the top they'll go before starting the war they really seem to want.
Whatever you think of Colin Powell, I believe he had the Powell Doctrine right. It was also something he admitted he failed at regarding invading Iraq in 2003.
So, regarding Ukraine:
1. Is a vital national security interest threatened?
2. Do we have a clear attainable objective?
3. Have the risks and costs been fully and frankly analyzed?
4. Have all other nonviolent policy means been fully exhausted?
5. Is there a plausible exit strategy to avoid endless entanglement?
6. Have the consequences of our action been fully considered?
7. Is the action supported by the American people?
8. Do we have genuine broad international support?
The Powell Doctrine was responsible for ending Gulf War 1 before its objectives were met. They let Saddam go. They had to do Gulf War 2 just to catch the guy, almost all because of that dufus Powell.
“Mariupol residents “
I swore that said marsupial.
/got possums on the brain
Watched a Youtube yesterday of a Russian Colonel visiting a wounded soldier in hospital. He pinned a medal on him and told him he’d be back on his feet before long. Soldier looked rather disgusted and angry. His left leg was amputated.
Totally unbelievable. I mean the Ruskies would never do such a thing….

The Powell Doctrine was sound for GW1. However, there were operational failures which led to the President not having an accurate picture of the progress Coalition Forces had made.
A good overview of this is at https://apps.dtic.mil/sti/pdfs/ADA395087.pdf

So true! We can’t have such microaggressions traumatize the tender feelings of the Russian invaders. They have enough stuff to deal with like massacring civilians and destroying Ukrainian cities. /s
This seems really unlikely.

There ae no good guys in this whole thing, and they are all releasing outrageous, all most farcical propaganda. I find it hard to believe that any FReepers could be in the tank as far as some are on both sides of the issue.
You’re a total POS that probably loved Bush killing Iraqi civilians. NATO caused this problem and the press is tugging at the hearts of the simple-minded.
Ukes don't give a damn about Donbass...they didn't even allow them to vote when Zelensky was running. It's really a damn Civil War.
Several reports of this kind of behavior are coming out. War crimes trials hopefully soon
The old USSR MO is back even though the new USSR is 2 countries. I’m betting the leader of Belarus is scared sh$tless the he is on the war crimes list.
