While we're seeing videos of Ukrainian soldiers begging for orders to retreat from #Bakhmut, and videos of soldiers actually retreating, Zelenskyy just clarified that soldiers have been ordered to hold the Bakhmut fort. Let's remember that most of those president.gov.ua/news/volodimir…… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
While Bakhmut is flooded with these forced conscripts, Ukraine's elite Nazi battalions were evacuated in late December... likely on Zelenskyy's presidential train when he went there to give out medals to a battalion that he had already given medals to in Kherson.… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
A #BloodSacrifice 😢 sends a message to the world about the Ukrainian military using barrier troops.
The NYT seems to be the only Western news outlet to question Ukraine's mobilization program... noting that the *unwilling* are deliberately selected to fight on the front lines. archive.ph/rwy4I
Ukrainian Nazis have perfected their mass murder tactics, and it's despicable. I really hope Russia finds a way to streamline opportunities for these guys to surrender.
Guys who run the UA murder list have been doing exactly this... posting their delight over Rus troops on the Bakhmut front being forced to kill the people they went sent there to save. I won't retweet their comments. You'll have to take my word for it.
Zelenskyy's advisor openly advocates for citizens (teenagers, even) who the state considers to be degenerates to be assigned to special military units intended for suicide missions. "Do not humanize them," he adds. They are not people, "they are subjects".
Ukraine is run by a fascist gangster state of the most vile sort. Gun running. Human trafficking. Drug cartels. Child prostitution. Nazis. But our leaders want us to believe they are a bastion of democracy, just because they picked a fight with Russia.
You forgot to address the fascist gangster state part.
Something sus about the execution vid that started this Glory to Ukraine trend. Like- the way the guy says the Nazi slogan, but not enthusiastically or w/ defiance as the narrative suggests. I don't think he was shot by Rus. The matter should be investigated properly anyway.
Ukrainian Nationalists are good at using the people they murder as if they were martyrs who died for the Ukrainian Nationalist cause. Like when the SBU assassinated that peace negotiator and acted like he "valiantly died defending Ukraine".
If Trump were president, we'd probably already be in WW3. He probably would've dropped an MOAB on Sevastopol and/or tried to assassinate Putin with a drone strike. I'm not fooled by his peacemaking campaign rhetoric. He is a doomsday clown, like the rest of them.
It is only by miracle that WW3 didn't break out when he was president. We're talking about the guy who bombed Syria proper and forgot that Operation Foal Eagle was just a training exercise and started a real stand off against North Korea.
He also tore up the Iran deal and formally recognized Israel's annexation of Golan Heights. He also moved the US embassy to Jerusalem, which stoked Israel-Palestine tensions. Seriously. He didn't start any new wars, but it wasn't for lack of trying.
Can someone please send me a link to something that tells us about how our government had a policy to invade such and such post soviet allied countries in the Middle East? My mind is drawing a blank about the source rt now. twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
It was a video of a guy who said he had met with US generals who told him we had plans to invade certain countries in the Middle East, but they couldn't explain why.
Maybe it was Jeffrey Sachs... a speech he made at some point. Anyone know what I'm talking about?
Considering the fact (according to her and her family's own words) that they operated an OUN underground press in Ukraine, it is unlikely that her grandfather just printed "plays" in the IDP camps. He was a well seasoned Nazi propagandist.
