Invading Russians are animals, congrats on consistently defending them.

In the final days of the occupation, Natasha says, a Russian soldier confronted her. She had ventured out to milk her cow, and he thought she was scouting Russian troop locations. She says he took her out to the middle of the road and pointed a gun to her head.
"He was threatening me," she says. "And what did I say to him? I said I just wish one thing: that he would see my face for the rest of his days, so he would never forget what he's done here."
The soldier spoke to someone else on his radio. Then, Natasha says, he let her go.
Her name is Ludmila Boiko.
"My sister and her son lived here. This is what's left of them," she says, pointing to a pile of old notebooks. "His mother kept his old notebooks from school."
Ludmila found them scattered around the debris of the apartment building. That and some pictures, she says, are the only things she's found.
Ludmila's sister Olyna Vahnenko was 56. Her nephew, Yuri, was 24. He had just graduated college.
They'd left their apartment and sought shelter. But on March 1, during a break in the shelling and bombing, Olyna and Yuri went back. Ludmila says they talked on the phone, and Olyna said they had been able to shower and eat some food.
An hour later, Russian forces destroyed the building.
"Our friends were trying to help us, but for four days, it was a huge fire here," Ludmila says. "And so first they were trying to fight the fire. They didn't have a chance to do excavations right away."
So Ludmila sat, and waited.
"I was so close with them that I don't even know how I should live now. How should I live in this place?"

I thought that was hilarious.
So Zelenskyy was a performer, a comedian and did skits in his shows and some how that seems to upset the Righteous Non Q Follwers but Proxy Q Followers among us.
Ronald Reagan was an actor……..he even made a few movie flops.
Was he also a bad leader?
When the Putin Posse wipes out (pun intended) the Zelenskyy piano skit, they have nothing else but old tired failing conspiracies.
Invading Russians are animals, congrats on consistently defending them.
*whip, not wipe…..
Perfect.
Let me know when Russian imperialism is dead and buried in Russia.
Russians are not invading anything; they are conducting a rescue mission: rescuing the people on the Eastern side of Ukraine from Azov Nazis, rescuing those who voted for the sick pervert Zelensky from their own stupidity, and everybody else from their illegitimate deep-state-imposed government and from the ****-storm that would sooner or later fall on their when large numbers of Russians and Europeans start dying from the aerosolized rabies and other kinds of **** being whomped up in those ukie biolabs.
Or maybe some here actually don't believe in earthquakes or wind....
You can start by taking the log out of your eye.
Lol, that's why everywhere invading Russians go in Ukraine, like Kherson, the locals tell them to gtfo.
Communism is dead and buried in Russia.

Then why does the overwhelming majority of Russians want to return to the days of Stalin? The Great Hero of Russia, Communist Pootie is doing his best to be a modern Stalin, but even more ruthless.
That’s absolute barbarism. As an American I feel ashamed. It was all avoidable!
A weak US President is a green light for all the enemies of freedom.
NPR? Are you kidding? This belongs on DU. How desperate are you for propaganda?
The AZOVs are shelling and killing people all over he place in Mariupol If that city looks bad it is because the Azovs have holed up there and they are who the Russians are after.
And Kharkiv is destroyed because of Azov, and people were executed in Bucha because of Azov, and the rocket attack on Kramatorsk train station was because of Azov, etc?
Putin's invasion is responsible for all the misery, death and destruction in Ukraine.
STFU. You sound dumb as ever.
This one has his knife to the neck an elected member of the Rada whose whereabouts are currently unknown.
Get in touch again when the civilian death count exceeds our own.
(But it’s just “collateral damage” when we do it, because our motives are so pure and innocent.)
Civilian Deaths in the Iraq War (Not counting Serbia, Libya, Syria, or our current proxy war in Yemen, where American weapons provided to the Saudis have killed over 250,000 civilians.)
https://www.statista.com/statistics/269729/documented-civilian-deaths-in-iraq-war-since-2003/
IRAQ: Civilian casualties are the deaths of non-military individuals as a result of military operations. The number of documented civilian deaths in the Iraq war peaked in 2006 at 29,517 casualties. Since then, the number had fallen to 4,162 casualties documented in the year 2011, and the number of casualties has been decreasing since 2014. Due to the nature of the Iraq war and of war reporting, data cannot be considered exact. Many civilian deaths that occurred during the war in Iraq may remain unaccounted for.
The Iraq war was launched in March 2003 upon the invasion of Iraq by US forces. Eight years later, in December 2011, the US formally declared an end to the Iraq war. From the start of the war in 2003 until September 30, 2015, it is estimated that the United States spent a total of over 819 billion US dollars on war costs in Iraq. This number includes funding requested by the President and appropriated by Congress, and accounts for both military and non-military spending.
Spending was highest in 2008, that year over 142 billion US dollars were spent in Iraq by the United States government. As of 2019, about 7,990 U.S. active-duty military personnel were deployed in North Africa, the Near East, and South Asia.
The number of US American soldiers killed in Iraq peaked in 2007 with just over nine hundred causalities. In the same year, there were over 25,000 civilian deaths in Iraq.
Russian orcs invaded Ukraine and brought misery, devastation, and death.
Russian orcs use nazi symbols.
Russian puppet Denis Pushilin decorates militant Roman Vorobiyov wearing two patches popular among Neo-Nazis: a Totenkopf and a Valknut.
The firebombing of Dresden was horrific. I’ve read several books on that raid, and I still think it was over-kill. Germany was on its knees, with its back to the wall, and was — behind the scenes, at least — seeking terms with the Brits and US. Hitler, of course, opposed any capitulation. But we, however, insisted on unconditional surrender; and rightfully so.
“The claims of 30+ US biowar laboratories on Ukrainian soil are real; that by itself would jusify the Russian operation. One of those labs was working on aerosolized rabies (what could go wrong...), another on a DNA-based weapon to specifically target people of Russian ancestry.”
Do you have an independent source for that (and that means nothing with .ru or .rt in its address, or anything associated with TASS or Pravda or any other pro-Kremlin propaganda mill)?
“A little something for the Putin worshippers among us.”
It is unsettling to the faithful to discover their deity is, after all, just a mere mortal.
