I can transliterate from Russian, google translate will slowly painfully coach me into the Cyrillic from there. Who knew?

“Stop polluting this site with all of this spam.”

Every bar that can be lowered has been lowered and that includes FR. It is now a haven and a magnet for thoughtless, repetitive imbeciles trapped in their empty skulls.

You are an example of a failed human who does not know right from wrong. You cannot be fixed and you will remain a failed human throughout your tormented existence.

I should feel bad for you but I don’t.

“Russians clearly did not think”

That’s why the Russians had to be TOLD to leave. Told even by the children, “Mama we have to leave from here.”

Bombs and missiles are munitions. A drone is not.

I wonder if this was one of the drones we sent? Kamikaze or Scan Eagle (mostly surveillance)?

Also wondering how the Crimea is described as “occupied” when it was annexed by Russia after something like 75 percent of the citizens voted to return to Russia in the plebiscite.

I didn't know they had a vote.

Walrus ~ Also wondering how the Crimea is described as “occupied” when it was annexed by Russia after something like 75 percent of the citizens voted to return to Russia in the plebiscite.

libertylover ~ I didn't know they had a vote.

In the same sense that Saddam Husein regularly got 100% of the vote, any village that didn't fully endorse him was razed, and the residents are nowhere to be found.

Or if you prefer a closer to home example, 81 million votes...

Did you mean: Rashist? Hope this is helpful:

No it’s not. I say what I mean and mean what I say.

While you are arguing about the finer points of language…

I spent three weeks in Crimea. It is Russian in heritage. I took a side trip to Yalta. It was a lovely place. What is going on now is tragic.

I follow several Russians on Instagram. There is no indication even that they are at war. I’m not sure they are allowed to hear much about it.

I spent one week in Kyiv. It was a wonderful city.

To be sure, I think Putin is an @sshole, but I don’t judge an entire country by its leader. I sure would not want to be judged because 81 million people voted for Biden.

That is all.
