Who is carrying this stolen mail. Nothing Should be going out of the country in wartime.
Every stage of this campaign just further confirms that, as Russian troops felt comfortable executing half a nation in Chechnya 20 years ago, they feel just as good doing the same in Ukraine now

No MiGs though. That would be too much.Rossticus said:
Apparently a few thousand dead civilians can speed things up significantly. Funny how things speed up when people in certain positions start to realize that this will get hung around their necks like a dead albatross.T-72 tanks are used by NATO countries.

Unfortunately, staff removed it. It's important to make sure these things are documented and that people understand the brutality of war (especially the Russian kind). I don't know what it was, but I doubt it was anything warm and fuzzy.
Speaking of horrific actions by the Russians, what realistically will happen to any of the Russian brass or even Putin himself after this, assuming they end up with little to no gains? I can't imagine Putin would get any warm welcomes in any international events. I also wonder if any of the backlash will eventually have any effect on their tactics, though I don't think we see any evidence of that as of yet.
It's just bizarre that Russia would do some of the things they're doing in an age of instant documentation and dissemination. Did none of them think that footage would immediately get out? How is a country with supposedly vaunted information warfare capabilities failing so much at the information war?

Ukes better be ready for the Donbas offensive. It's going to be intense. From the Speak the Truth videos, it looks like they have a lot of people there. It would be nice if they were able to hold Izyum or take it back.

Just heard that Biden has reached out to Republican leadership to issue a coordinated, joint, bipartisan, apolitical statement/response to recent developments.
US Intel has confirmed that the order for recent Russian military atrocities originated directly from the top of Russian government, blessed by Vlad.
We'll see where this all leads and what materializes.

Something between Bosnia and WW2. You have to wonder how history will view this a generation from now.
And by genocide, I'll also include the people who die by starving through food shortages. All because Putin is a bad actor who is mentally unstable.
This can't happen without a lot of Russians supporting it. That country has a very outsized view of its place in history.
It's time forRussiaThe Current Russian Regime to be ground into dust andscattered to the windand removed then replaced with a Constitutional Republic .St. Petersburg and surrounding region become would obviously be a viable European state but the rest is harder to draw. Moscow would have to be the center of another country but would need to be land locked and not allowed to reach to the Black Sea.
Looking at a map, it's hard to see natural dividing lines for 6+/- viable states:

I think the only checkbox not shared by both Kremlin and ISIS is the fact Putin has nukes.

To those who argue there is too much coverage of the war, to the exclusion of important U.S. stories, by morning you will see irrefutable evidence of mass civilian massacres & graves, and what is looking like genocide, the prevention of which should be Americas greatest priority

City bombings.
Civilian executions by death squads.
Widespread marauding by combatants.
Millions of refugees of war.
Cities ceasing to exist as human settlements.

Russia is on the security council. Good luck doing anything to them.Eliminatus said:
UN inspectors and other world health professionals need to be in Bucha and surrounding areas yesterday to get full documentation of what occurred. We know atrocities happened. The world knows it. But there still needs to be a third party, first hand, documented mission to record this to remove the biased claims. For future Russian generations. Russia needs to be broken of their views of their roles in this world. They need to know they are the bad guys and always have been. (If possible of course, big ask)
