‘Hmmmm, what we have here is two great sources of nothingness: Russia and Reuters. ‘Twould be difficult to choose the least trustworthy, but we know it would be close.”

I’m with you, CNN is THE BEST!!!

Easy to fake, since they had the prisoners’ bodies to dismantle before burying them. Since Moscow wouldn’t let any independent investigators see the site, Ockham’s Razor says faked.

And we had LOTS of evidence of Russian materiel killing our troops in Vietnam, Afghanistan, Iraq, etc.

You think the whole world AND Russia honor Nazis in their news? That’s a very unique point of view.

Puzzling to me. Don’t we furnish Ukraine with weapons? What is so peculiar about using them?

Naa, none of the above. Most likely the Patriot operators (from whatever country sent them) simply didn’t get the word on the prisoner exchange and so took down an easy target over Russia. One of the things that points to this mistake were the celebratory tweets that immediately went out by Ukraine’s military...only to be deleted once word came down as to who was on board.

“”I am not clear on why Russia would get worked up over this.””

I have said over the years - I WILL READ every reply before I put in my two cents. I didn’t do it this time either. I’m with you....what’s so odd about them using what we’ve given to them to use?

It’s a shame that US TV Networks won’t interview Putin.

It's not necessary.

All American Democrats, Liberals, RINOs, GOPe, NeoCons, Woke Military and Zeepers can read Putin's mind, past, present and future, and keep us informed on what he's thinking and planning.

The internet is an amazing thing, and cuts through much of the censorship that maintains ignorance -- which is why our political parents block us children from sources of "enemy" information. But with minimal effort, one may find...

Many photos from the crash site, include clear photos of large pieces from a MIM-104A Patriot missile - some with clear markings of its manufacturer (Raytheon), nomenclature, date of manufacture and contract number. Russians have also collected body parts and collected DNA samples to identify the dead from both countries, and has said it will turn over to Kiev all that pertains to the Ukrainian POWs.

I recommend watching foreign news.

Agreed. Remember when the West blew up Nordstream, or when the Dniepner dam was blown by the Ukies? …..many non- western news agencies called them correctly, many foreign news agencies still report the facts- they don’t buy into senile Joe’s narrative.

You definitely get different details, that’s for sure. Sometimes between various sources you can even discover a hint of truth.

Yep, the Russkies were really clever this time.

They stole a Patriot system from Ukraine, shot down their own prisoner transport with 65 real Uke Nazis on it, and snuck the Patriot system back to Ukraine before the Biden Regime was any the wiser.

Not even Rooters could figure it out.

I’m not sure that weapons were intended to be used to kill Ukrainians.
