In 30 minutes, @EthnicMediaSvc goes live with four eminent experts on the issue: @mklare1 Michael Klare @DarylGKimball @AndrewNynka @ArmsControlNow Watch here: fb.me/e/1s0hx3u35
We are in a heightened state of nuclear danger, says @DarylGKimball Putin has made nuclear threats which are unprecedented.
Why do so many Russian-speakers support Putin and this war? Still. Even in Ukraine (though their number is declining). And in other former satellites, or even Canada and the US. Why? How? WHY?
It’s not just the Kremlin propaganda. Let me tell you a deeply personal story. 1/n

When Russian missiles hit my hometown of Odesa on Feb 24, my mom jumped on the first bus out of the country. Her obvious destination was Moldova—because of geographical proximity, but also, because our family lived there until 1995 when we moved to Ukraine.
My mom has a network of friends there—Russian-speakers who, unlike our family, still live in Moldova. From the bus, she called her old friend—I’ll call her Tanya—who still lives in Moldova, and asked if she could spend the night—she could only find a hotel room for the day after.
@RealScottRitter Also, Tochka-U missile system is no longer used by Russia; its over 30yrs old now.
Still used by UAF though, & the same missile system which was fired at #Donetsk, killing & maiming dozens. The West MSM used those pictures of dead civilians widely, to blame Russia for attrocities
