#4. Putin has made criticizing the invasion illegal in Russia. Russian journalists risk prison for opposing the invasion. As biased as other press is, there are hundreds of OSINT and on the ground sources that collectively provide a clear picture of what is happening. What is coming out from the Ukrainian government is far more truthful than anything Russia says.

"They should have welcomed their enslavers with flowers?"

They appear to have welcomed their EU/GAE enslavers with colors.

Why the enthusiasm to erase Ukraine’s national sovereignty and re-constitute the Soviet Union?

The more I learn about "The Ukraine" the more I learn it is a DC/NATO deep-state satrapy

Trump, Russia, and How Not to Lose the Information War With Nina Jankowicz

https://irishtechnews.ie/trump-russia-the-information-war-nina-jankowicz/

She herself said she is Polish/Ukrainian.

She worked for the Ukrainian government before working for Biden.

Her job for Biden was to attack Trump and knock down anything negatively said about Biden or Ukraine.

The xiden regime is controlled by the same shadow globalists.
Do you suggest that we should not resist?
Just, orderly, get on the cattle cars and march to the camps?

Well, in the propaganda of Nazi Germany there was such a term "wunderwaffe".

The term was shortened to "WuWa." As Germany slid toward utter defeat and fatalism became default attitude of the population, a catchphrase became popular: "Wo bleibt die WuWa?" which means "where is the WuWa?" or "where are they keeping the WuWa?"

I remember this detail from William Shirer's great The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich.

Putin has made criticizing the invasion illegal

And, Zelensky has banned or suspended ALL opposition parties, imprisoned opposition leaders and shutdown opposition media outlets. The Ukrainian SBU is either killing or arresting those that criticize the government's war strategy.

And, BTW, the Ukrainians use neo-Nazis as their frontline fighter.

But, you think the Ukrainians are the good guys?

Why in hell are we wasting money on this dumpster of country and fighting a proxy war with Russia? It's insane.

Let’s not kid ourselves. Russia has enough wunder-waffen to kill everyone on the planet.

“It is a shame this pervy puke didn’t flee to the west in February. He could have spared the Ukraine from two months of death and destruction.”

Yes, it is! Had he left when he had a chance it would have saved us over $40 billion dollars plus countless lives of his poor Nazi Asov soldiers.

What blows my mind is his absolute bald-faced lies. His soldiers are surrendering all over the place (Mariupol & Donbas) and then he goes on TV and creates these imaginary fairytale stories!

This guy has lost the east of his country (Donbas) including a city of 500,000 (Mariupol). And he is on his way to losing the entire east and southern coast.

What a scumbag.

One good thing he has done is show us how incredibly insane Xiden and his so-called experts really are (like we didn’t already know).

“Old Soviet “armor” without modern protection. Forbidden phosphorous bombs, which they use to burn schools and ordinary houses.”

look at most any image of their tanks an you will see them covered with modern reactive armor - the brick like shapes; upgraded T-70s come with modern sights and reactive armor, the T80s and 90s both have defenses against manpads like any modern tank.

The Orc use thermobaric (burns off the O2) rockets from TOS-1As and from VKF dropped FAB-500 and 6000s. They aren’t forbidden, except in a declared war which this is not.

As for the wonder weapon, they have tried the new T-90Ms, 10 of the 20 Terminator BMPTs - all with little effect.

Maybe they are working on some laser weapon like flying sharks with mounted lasers - who knows. Whatever it is, if there is any validity, cannot replace troops which they do not have enough of to hold the ground they have already taken, let alone more.

He trapped like a mob target. He tries anything at all and they will put a bullet in him.

Sort of like Biden allowing millions of illegals from 162 countries to flood across our border, rather than spare them any inconvenience.

Orcs? Does that make the Ukes Hobbits or Trolls or something?

Orc is a name associated with the mogul hoards that swept over Russia and into Europe. Where do you imagine Tolkien got it from?

What a shame that Churchill didn’t just surrender to the Nazis. He could have saved the British so much death and destruction in the Battle of Britain.
