WW3 fears as Putin prepares to go all in on Ukraine: Russia paves the way for conscription and scrambles to annex Ukrainian territories, warning the West 'all forces' will be used to defend them
Daily Mail ^ | 9/20/2022 | Chris Pleasance

Vladimir Putin appeared poised to go all-in on his war in Ukraine today, sparking fears of an escalation in fighting that could drag in NATO and spark World War Three.

In a day of rapid-fire developments, Kremlin stooges in Ukraine's Luhansk, Donetsk, Zaporizhzhia and Kherson regions simultaneously announced referendums on becoming part of Russia between September 23 and 27, with the sham votes expected to easily pass.

Dmitry Medvedev, a staunch Putin ally, then vowed 'all forces of self-defence' will be used to protect what he called 'Russian territory' - teeing up a new phase in the conflict involving weapons and tactics the Kremlin has so-far held in reserve.

Underlining that point, Moscow's rubber-stamp parliament passed new laws paving the war for Putin to end his 'special military operation' and officially declare a war, allowing him to mobilise Russia's massive population into the army.

It comes after Ukraine humiliatingly routed Putin's forces to the east of Kharkiv and recaptured a swathe of territory, with the despot's allies, propagandists and political hardliners calling for an escalation amid calls for the president to resign.

Putin was said to be preparing an address to the nation tonight, Russia's national broadcaster reported, without giving any further details.

Why not post the actual UN report

If you looked at that you would see that in the entire year of 2021, the last year before Putin invaded Ukraine there were 25 civilians killed in Ukraine as a result of or related to the conflict. Seven people were killed in active hostilities, which are things like shooting or shelling.

Twelve people died due to mines or trying to move unexploded ordnance.

Six people died for other reasons.

By contrast, since Putin's invasion to supposedly "protect" the Russian speaking people in that area his own soldiers have murdered dozens, perhaps hundreds of civilians. His army's shelling and bombing have killed thousands of civilians, many of them in areas with high populations of people he claims are ethnic Russians.

It is either a disgusting attempt to fool people with propaganda, or Putin and Russians really are stupid because launching an invasion to "protect" the people in the Donbass from a situation where only a couple of people a month died, mostly from handling old mines and ordnance, by destroying the cities they lived in and killing thousands of the people he was trying to "protect" is pure insanity.

God damn you to hell for continuing to push this war and sanction war on the nation.

You are 100% in support of the war -- you just want Putin to win. So spare us your crocodile tears as Putin doubles down.

Once they are annexed, Russia territory may be defended by a declaration of war - and then Putin sends in the actual Russian Army, rather than the conscripted forces in the Special Operation. Russia was constrainted by the Russian Special Operation that did not permit actual regualr Military units from the fight. This annexation will be denied by the Ukraine, and then there will what Putin will cal WAR.

The 14,000 number is not civilians, and it includes people on both sides of the fight, including soldiers in the Ukrainian military, the LNR and DNR militias, and other fighters in the area.

You would know that if you read any of the source material. Why tell lies?

"Total conflict-related casualties in Ukraine in 2014-20217 OHCHR estimates the total number of conflict-related casualties in Ukraine from 14 April 2014 to 31 December 2021 to be 51,000–54,0008: 14,200-14,400 killed (at least 3,404 civilians, estimated 4,400 Ukrainian forces9, and estimated 6,500 members of armed groups10), and 37-39,000 injured (7,000–9,000 civilians, 13,800–14,200 Ukrainian forces11 and 15,800-16,200 members of armed groups12)."

From the exact same document you provided a link to a portion of.

Per: www.statista.com/statistics/1293492/ukraine-war-casualties/

“OHCHR estimates that between 14,200 and 14,400 people, including civilians and military personnel, were killed in relation to that conflict from April 14, 2014, to December 31, 2021. Of them, at least 3.4 thousand were civilians.”

There are other sources. Just google it.

The United States of America will soon be a Communist Marxist Nation. This new AmeriKa wants to be the head-honcho in the World and run the planet. Obama’s minions at this point can’t be stopped by normal politics.

The republicans need to outlaw communist and marxism in the United State by using the Senate to pass laws, and the congress to ratify what they send up the chain.

I often wonder how Americans would react to Russian and or Chinese military bases in Messy-co. Perhaps in quite the same manner as Russia is reacting to a growing NATO presence along their borders.

Not my circus, not my monkey. I’ve always believed this was and is a European problem, not an American problem. Besides, we’ve been at war for decades. Trillions upon trillions of hard earned tax dollars pissed away...now here we go again!

They really don’t need to outlaw them, they just need to enforce the laws. Which they don’t.

I think we should give Ukraine 85 billion more. We don't mind that the U.S. standard of living is going to hell as the criminally corrupt call the shots! And most in the U.S. will be willing to work two jobs for Ukraine!

“I often wonder how Americans would react to Russian and or Chinese military bases in Messy-co. “

How about just remembering the Democrats going nuts when Russia put missiles in Cuba? History is a better teacher than speculation.

The same is true today.

You must have missed the six Chinese Y-20 cargo planes that delivered FK-3 missile systems to Belgrade back in April.

Next time you Soros fags want to FAFO, the Serbs are ready.

Anyone that opposes Putin’s Communist expansion in Ukraine and runs into Russians are eliminated.
