The woman who claimed the Bucha massacre was just some Ukrainian setup involving civilian corpses to make the Russian military look bad... she doesn't even deserve a mention. Everyone gets what they deserve...
Word is the car actually belonged to her, not her father. So there's a chance the target really was her... the daughter. There are clips of her on TV floating around now where she’s basically justifying the aggression. Long story short, definitely not an angel...
quietridge92 said:Lithuania is currently working on banning Russian tourist visas—it looks like a few other countries might be weighing similar moves. It makes me wonder: should we consider banning Russians from entering the US altogether?
Great read from Novaya Gazeta about how Lithuania emerged as the Kremlin's top adversary within the European Union...
Spanish PM Sanchez is currently visiting Kyiv: ''This is the largest shipment we've ever sent from Spain. It's already en route to a port in Poland''
Sanchez confirmed the supplies are heading toward a Polish port via the logistics vessel Ysabel, carrying 200 tons of ammunition and military gear, including 30 trucks and 10 light vehicles.
So much for Putin's mighty Russia. Everyone’s crying about sanctions everywhere... while simultaneously claiming the sanctions aren't even hitting them. Like, please. Give me a break. 😂
The retaliation is here: Boris Johnson and several high-ranking officials have been banned from entering Russia.

With the threat of being kicked out of the IMF and the World Bank looming, Russia is turning to Brazil for backup. They're also looking for ways to dodge those sanctions...

I honestly don't see how Brazil could actually help them...
The French are estimating this at around $13 billion...

northernangler8 said:Oh, absolutely they would. That’s basically why this whole conflict started—to push the Russians out of Ukraine. It's all about chasing new political fantasies, and the Ukrainian people are the ones paying the price for it. I guess you could say Zelenskyy bears a massive amount of responsibility here; he doesn't seem interested in stopping the fighting, but rather in provoking even more tension. As for why Ukrainians would march on Moscow? I don't see the point.
After the USSR collapsed, Russia essentially gave Ukraine its freedom and stayed out of their business, though they made it very clear that the US military shouldn't be meddling in Ukrainian politics. And that is exactly what happened. A free Ukraine ended up caught in a war just to satisfy NATO's desire for expansion. I suppose that's what happens when you have internal enemies—politicians who drag you into a war that wasn't even necessary.
The Americans just had to come up with a narrative explaining why Putin attacked Ukraine, because obviously, the US isn't going to point the finger at itself.
So the ex-KGB just let Ukraine be free? 🙄
"Let"? How incredibly generous of those KGB colonels...

Stop wasting your breath.
It's honestly hard to tell what our friend here is even trying to say... But yeah, the "diarrhea" part? Totally true...
