A 3-month-old baby was among six people Saturday killed when Russia fired cruise missiles at the Black Sea port city of Odesa, Ukrainian officials said. Andriy Yermak, chief of staff for Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, said in a Telegram post that two missile strikes from Russian troops struck a residential area in the city

"Nothing is sacred," Yermak wrote. "Evil will be punished.

“explosive growth of Eastern Euro neo-nazi movements”

Interesting that you’re now telling us that Russia’s ambitions extend further than just Ukraine.

Thank you for so freely admitting this.

“I’d like to see the Russians launch an operation to make Russia a nice place to live as opposed to destroying what someone else was trying to build.”

What exactly was Ukraine trying to build, the premier money laundering capital of the world? It was an economic basket case run by criminal Oligarchs. Zelensky’s financier, Kolomoisky embezzled $5.5 billion from the Ukrainian bank he swindled funds from. These are the dirtbags you people are supporting, it’s disgusting.

Not a good plan to underestimate the enemy. The Russkies have a professional army. That’s why they’re able to “shape the battlefield” as the Pentagon says. I believe to the extent that Ukraine is achieving “high-five” moments, they are the result of the, shall we say, many intel resources of the US. This is seemingly a David vs Goliath war, but in reality it’s more like Goliath vs Goliath-by-proxy. Nothing is going to stop Russia from occupying a good bit if not all of the Black Sea Coast, plus obviously keep Crimea and standing up their Russia-friendly governments in the Donbass. Not saying I like it, just reality based on biased sources on both sides, not sure how big a grain of salt is required to believe either side’s propoganda.

Since you don’t like Soros then why do you hate Zelensky? Zelensky ran against and defeated Soros’ toadie Petro Poroshenko.

Yup. Horrible dirtbags who cleaned up their country so it could qualify for membership in the European Union.

My point is, they are no threat to the US. They are a sad little country.

Well, I doubt that. It looks like a roach motel. Galician and other Euro Nazis are streaming into eastern Ukraine. They get em there I would expect.

They also are big into chess playing. You don’t play your queen too early. As it stands, that crappy army has taken most of the Ukraine it wanted back.
Remains to be seen I guess.

Nothing is sacred...

There are three sides to every modern coin, and this one is too difficult to call.

Unfortunately, however, when a government arms civilians and encourages them to withstand an invader, as Ukraine did immediately, it clearly puts the suffering and lives of innocent civilians on the table.

They cleaned up nothing otherwise all those scumbags would be in prison. But they’re not on the contrary, they’re the ones running the country.

You are either stupid or a liar or both. You are not even worth bothering with further.

Biden drone attack killed innocent AID WORKER and 7 children in Kabul

Your orcs kill that many every hour, when they're not busy shooting people in the street or gang raping 10 year old kids in a basement.

The side you're rooting for says everything about you.

The end game will be for someone clear-headed on the Ukraine side to find a way to save face, then Russia will have to figure out a way to win the peace.

“My point is, they are no threat to the US. They are a sad little country”

Seriously? You’re joking, right?

The West makes them a threat by their actions/inactions.

The US would have a hard time winning a ground war against Russia. Our woke army
Would be in for a rude awakening.

The West’s only hope be a war of long-range missile attacks and hope we get off more than they do.

Russia has hypersonic long-range missiles, the latest being the Sarmat, meaning “eternal”, which is a hypersonic intercontinental ballistic missile, weighing 100 tons (the US biggest is the minute man weighing 35 tons) with a range of 18,000 km.

This allows it to carry up to 15 nuclear warheads, up to 75kt. In comparison the bomb we dropped on Hiroshima was 15kt.

Such capacity would be able to destroy an area as large as the country of France.

And all of this would go undetected, as we have no defense for such a missile.

Now, tell me again how we have nothing to fear from a sad little country.

No reason for Russia to take a pause and give Europe more time to send in heavy weapons.

Besides, Ukraine already had its holiday on 4/20.

There was a time when our FR trolls were really good - they could be around for eons before getting noticed.

Now we get nothing but back-benchers and scrubs. This one gives his trollhood away with every uttering - he proclaims it on his own homepage and in his screen-name.
