Funny he's not at the funerals demanding the caskets be opened and accusing the families of being crises actors so they can get death threats from lunatics. They are getting soft, years ago they would be parading around the shooting site dressed like soldiers, displaying their AR-15s and shoving their 2nd amendment rats down yer throat. Like I said, they are getting soft, and it is a sign of increasing weakness...

  • The Kremlin has said prospects for a renewal of the Black Sea grain initiative, in which Russia allows Ukraine to ship agricultural exports from its Black Sea ports via Turkey, were “not so bright”. Russia has repeatedly complained that western economic sanctions are preventing it from exporting agricultural products, and that these need to be lifted in order for it to agree to any extension.
  • Slovakia will temporarily halt imports of grains and other selected products from Ukraine to protect its farmers, joining Poland and Hungary in the move, a government spokesperson said on Monday.
  • Ukraine’s restoration ministry has said the Black Sea grain initiative is in danger of being shut down after Russia again blocked inspections of ships under the deal in Turkish waters.
  • The US ambassador to Russia has been able to visit the imprisoned journalist Evan Gershkovich for the first time. Posting on Twitter, the embassy’s official account said the ambassador Lynne Tracey visited him in Lefortovo prison. It is the first time the US has had consular access since Gershkovich was arrested on espionage charges.
  • The United States and dozens of other UN members called for Russia to release Gershkovich. “We protest Russian efforts to limit and intimidate the media,” said Linda Thomas-Greenfield, US ambassador to the United Nations, reading a statement supported by 45 other UN member states, including the UK, France, Germany and Japan, AFP reports.
  • Slovakia has handed over all 13 MiG-29 fighter jets it had pledged to Ukraine, the Slovak defence ministry said on Monday.
  • Almost 500 children have been killed in Ukraine since Russia’s invasion, according to a report by the Ukrainian prosecutor general. It said that as of Monday, a total of 1,418 children had been affected. They had counted 470 children killed and 948 who had been injured – although the department believes that the number of injured children is higher.
  • The Russian aluminium tycoon Oleg Deripaska, who has been subjected to sanctions, bemoaned a “primitive” Russian finance system dominated by state banks, saying it was sliding into the past while other countries took advantage of a realignment in global finance.
 
“There was no corner of the known world where some interest was not alleged to be in danger or under actual attack. If the interests were not Roman, they were those of Rome's allies; and if Rome had no allies, then allies would be invented. When it was utterly impossible to contrive such an interest—why, then it was the national honor that had been insulted. The fight was always invested with an aura of legality. Rome was always being attacked by evil-minded neighbors, always fighting for a breathing space. The whole world was pervaded by a host of enemies, and it was manifestly Rome's duty to guard against their indubitably aggressive designs. They were enemies who only waited to fall on the Roman people.”

Maybe to get out of him testifying at the lawsuit, foxnews could send him to Ukraine for a series of reports on how bad and evil they are. I'm sure the Ukrainians will be delighted to take him on a tour of the front lines where accidents can happen... Tucker has his head blown clean off on live TV when it was struck by a grenade accidentally fired from launcher striking Mr. Carlson in the head then detonating, in what officials are calling a tragic accident, oops. Problem solved for foxnews and for Ukraine, win win!

Like I said, it's looking dryer and greener over there lately... Almost hunting season and they consider Russians to be orcs, based on their behavior. The show is about to begin.

To justify huge amounts of human loss the enemy must be evil. They cannot be what they are, just like you or me.

Its like calling this a "show". War is not a show war is hell, destructive and a people killer. The Colosseum was build to "entertain" the citizens & keep them willingly enslaved, much like it still is, all over the world.

I differentiate between the bosses, who are evil imo, and the poor conscript bastards, who would likely be almost anywhere else.

The accounts of atrocity by the troops are awful. However they are not extraordinary. It’s a tale as old as war.
 
Imagine how much damage 1000 teams of drone operators can do along the front line, a couple of guys in a half ton are more mobile than artillery that can't be everywhere and can cover places they can't, even if they don't have the range. Likewise mortar teams are best employed around Bakhmut and other such target rich environments. However, these things can harass the enemy and cost them lots of equipment all along the front line while stressing out the troops. If they had the targets in range a team could destroy a dozen pieces of equipment from tanks to trucks for the cost of a $10 or $20K bomber drone or even a $3K Mavic adapted for use in war. The main point is, that while not as effective as military hardware, it costs a fraction of it and is in plentiful supply. One drone on a successful mission can destroy millions of dollars' worth of equipment and at night it can fly many missions and bigger drones dropping mortar rounds can drop several per sortie. As long as they have no effective EW defense, then they are vulnerable and there is a lot of front line for EW to cover.

Maybe so, but that is what the Ukrainians call them, and it is an earned nickname, earned by their atrocities, at some point based on their behavior it becomes a descriptive. Murder is no better a name than orc in the end. It is not appropriate for us to use the term, but for them, I'll make an exception.

so you would behead a captured POW?.....or rape children? Ruskies taped a grenade between a dead mother and her living infant so that when Ukrainian soldier tried to free the baby the grenade exploded. When the Muscovy soldiers start acting like humans they will be treated like humans. However they act like animals and earned their namesake thru sick deeds..
