Soldiers have sacrificed their lives for this senseless war. Too heartbreaking.
@sturg gaming No, comrade, we mean the war Putin started.
@sturg gaming I’m aware that Ukraine is single handedly humiliating Russia for the world to see. This war was supposed to be over a month ago. Now Ukrainian farmers have a bigger tank compliment than Russia, a quarter of Russia’s generals are dead, and Russia can’t hold a city within 10 miles of their border. If that’s “winning” I’d hate to see what losing looks like.
@Faithpearlgenie D-A hahaha
@Miloslav Sasek both sides are sacrificing….this is a ritual for the NWO
@books from Windblown Russia has never at any time, been in favor of Ukrainian independence…. just saying. 🇺🇦

In this case more than one…
@The Kombinator unfortunately 😕, Russia government is littlerly a 2022 mafia. Poor Citizens of Russia are littlerly hostages .
@Isaac Whyt and also in manchuria
well its seems that russia is only powefull because of thr nuclear weapons
Well, I agree but that quote was before nuclear weapons were on the scene in potential Warfare. And Putin has them. Plenty of them. On Submarines patrolling the Atlantic and Pacific. As well as ground based in Russia. And that crazy SOB dictator will not hesitate to launch before he goes into his “Bunker”. That is why the West can’t figure out a way to end him. You can’t negotiate with a dictator that will sacrifice his own Russian people. And many innocent citizens in Russia agree. I would leave Florida right now and go over and fight Russian troops in Ukraine if they let me. And I’m 63. IMO
Trump says Putin is a genius.
Putin launches a 100 million dollar hypersonic missile and destroys a 1 million dollar building in Ukraine.
Ukraine fires a $5,000 rocket and destroys a 500 million dollar Russian Naval ship and cargo.
I stand with Ukraine and the Russians opposing this war
@Johnny K Wow. I see why you don’t use your last name.
@Dennis Harrell Putin has every right to defend his country.
America made a promise to never push towards the east near Russia, and look what happened.
Ukraine is trying to join NATO to poke the bear, and now the bear is poking back.
Furthermore, the only reason this so called save Ukraine bull💩 is happening is because their white Europeans.
What about all the other brown 🤎 people that went through hell? guess what nobody cares because they’re not white? 😅.
So good job Putin eat them for breakfast and have Poland for dessert
We all know America loves using smaller countries to attack another country they don’t like because of their socalled tyranny.
@Johnny K это не россия товарищ – ваша кремлевская пропаганда тут не имеет значения. наслаждайтесь, когда товарищи отправляются десятками тысяч из-за неудавшегося вторжения вашего глупого президента.

“Never let your confidence supercede your Talent”
@Damian Hertel It is all on video 😂
trump praising Putin and approving for war on Ukraine.
You are blinded by trump’s love 🤦♂️💖 you can’t see REALITY. 😥
The truth is trump does not care about American people.
@Master Blaster the truth is no president in America cares about their people you think that Biden does the truth is no president cares about their people in almost every country how is that sound genius?
@Damian Hertel Yes, Biden does care about all of us, maybe you have watching FoxNews and that tv channel always apposes every single thing about democrats even if democrats are right.
Foxnews teaches its viewers to HATE, please do not fall for that. Hate is bad for the soul. Biden does love you, believe it or not.
@Master Blaster God and his only son Jesus Christ loves me and you you fool not some false gods like Biden or Trump or any other government officials that think they are above GOD understand that I just tough you a very valuable lesson Wright that down somewhere so you don’t forget who really loves you and who’s love really matters
@Damian Hertel You don’t even practice what you preach dude.
The bible says: “Do not worship the Golden Calf”
“Do not follow false Prophets”
trump is the Golden Calf and a false Prophet.
And you worship trump.
Think about that for a minute 🤔
in the HBO series Chernobyl there was a line “our power comes from the perception of our power”. Putin comes from the era of that type of thinking
Such great people. Great remark by the Ukrainian soldier!

The Russian people will start to leave Russia for fear of what could come to a “ ratchet regime” of years gone by. Putin will “ lose the war “ with his own people. They will no longer support his madness and leave Russia for good.
@ROSETTA WILLIAMS hope so
This hurts my soul to listen to. My fellow brothers and sisters stop dying for a dictator. Take your power back.
Superb.
@Shawn Owings lives in Waco.
@David Gutierrez I must be.
@Shawn Owings the fact that you said ur sure Ukraine isn’t 100% innocent just shows how much you don’t know…
@Bohdan Stolashchuk well I know my government is corrupt. I didn’t think any country is innocent
Go Ukraine! Your brave heart will prevail!
It’s the people at home in Russia that’ll eventually bring this “special military operation” to an end. As if not allowing them to call a war a war would make any difference.
Luck to the Ukrainians and the citizens of Russia who never wanted this. I hope the protests grow. Power to the people.
I wonder if they will really re-vote putin after this?
@Jaeger19Ultima Putin can rig the elections (he’s been accused of doing so for decades) and he has full control over the media so he can fully brainwash the Russian people…
“The only thing more dangerous than ignorance is arrogance”.— Albert Einstien
Except there werent millions of russians living in afghanistan.
@#j G The counties Biden won account for 75% of the country’s GDP. Of the states that take more from the federal government than they pay in, 80% of them are republican. You’re deluded.
@jerry jerry Why are you talking about Trump, this is meant to be a quote about Putin. It’s 2022…
Ignorance is the most dangerous, since arrogance is mere byproduct of ignorance
23 years ago, 19 NATO countries dropped 10,000 bombs on Yugoslavia… Without UN sanction…Russia is not Yugoslavia… 70% of Russians have been morally ready for nuclear war since 2014… Does the US understand that the world is guaranteed to be destroyed??? I don’t think so …
We are with you 🙏❤️ people of Ukraine and Russia who are standing against despotism, tyranny and deaths for freedom and democracy…
I really want to see Russia to be a democratic country. Hope things move in that direction. It’s gonna be costly but peace once and for all.
That’s not likely to happen. At least not within our lifetimes.
They are democratic. Putin’s elections are real. This is what they voted for.
Russia’s “elections” are sham elections.
@Publius The Federalist true!
@Publius The Federalist in Russia only the middle class counts . And the middle class was constantly asking for war
I pray for both sides… all the lives lost, so SENSELESS!!!
Those who don’t learn from history are doomed to repeat it

Thumb up for brave russians,who prostested against war,despite dicatatorship
Are you sure https://youtu.be/_YVwI6eRC-E
There is one evil which we must fear most, The indifference of good men
Destroy all that which is evil
So that which is good may flourish
@Drew Kelley What evil did civilians and children of Jugoslavia carry? And in Iraq? And in Libya? And in Soomaaliya? yes, in the USA you kill people every time you are not obeyed. It seems you don’t have good people either, well maybe 1%.
Journalist Lara Logan: Ukraine’s ‘Puppet’ President was ‘Selected’, ‘We are Being Lied to On An Epic Scale’ (Video)

NATO and the US must accept that they made a mistake, stop their aggression in Europe and honor the non-expansion obligation that they treacherously violated in 1998.
Logan reports that the United States and its intelligence agencies have been funding and arming the Nazis in Ukraine for a long time.
On Tuesday, Journalist Lara Logan appeared on America’s Voice AM and denounced Ukraine’s ‘puppet’ President Volodymyr Zelensky who was “selected” and called much of the news about Ukraine “misinformation.”
The former Fox News Chief White House Correspondent Ed Henry, who was the host, explained the current state of Ukraine. Henry said Putin “caused a lot of destruction, don’t want to minimize the fact there are over two million refugees. But this has not gone as well as Vladimir Putin expected.”
Logan, the former 60 Minutes correspondent, responded,
“I don’t buy it for a second, and I’ll be honest with you. I really think that there’s so much misinformation. We’ve never really seen anything like it. I mean, I’ve been covering wars now for 35 years.” She continued, “And there’s so much more going on in Ukraine that nobody is talking about.”
‘Crimea Wanted to Belong to Russia’
Logan slammed the Ukrainian Nazi group Azov Battalion, which she claims is funded by the United States and NATO. She explained that the Azov Battalion is leaving a trail of death and destruction in eastern Ukraine. “This is why Crimea wanted to belong to Russia.” According to our leaders, only a few troops are involved. That is not true, claims Logan.
Logan pointed out that Ukraine used to be a headquarters for the SS, and revealed more about the Azov-Battalion’s Nazi connections:
I mean, you can find pictures of them online holding up the NATO flag and the swastika. And at the same time, their own emblem contains the black sun of the occult, which was a Nazi SS emblem.”
Logan went on to link the Ukrainian military to the Azov Battalion, stating,
throughout the Ukrainian military you can see that black sun of the occult on their body armor, even on the female soldiers who are paraded in front of the world as being, you know, such an example of Ukraine’s independence and spirit and nobility.”
Logan reports that the United States and its various intelligence agencies have been funding and arming the Nazis in Ukraine for a long time. She explains that the CIA gave Nazis immunity from prosecution after World War II,
The CIA under Allen Dulles actually gave immunity from prosecution to the Nazis of Ukraine from the Nuremberg trials. So there’s a long history of the United States and our intelligence agencies funding and arming Nazis in Ukraine. These are not, like, new neo-Nazi groups that sprung up. These are the actual Nazis.”
Many Suffered in WWII
“What troubles me about the moment that we’re in is that we have such a selective and a narrow reading of history. President Zelenskyy may be Jewish, but he’s not the only one in this who suffered during the second world war, whose ancestors suffered, right?” Logan asked.
“I mean, look at Putin, how many relatives did he lose in the siege of St. Petersburg? People don’t know their history,” she said before noting, “I’m am not defending him. I don’t need to defend Vladimir Putin. My job as a journalist is to try to understand, what is the truth here?”
President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is a ‘Selected’ ‘Puppet’
She continued, “I don’t like being lied to. And we’re being lied to on an epic scale. When we’re told your only choices, you have to be a hundred percent with Zelensky, who’s a puppet who you can find on the internet in black stilettos and leather pants, you know, shirtless, doing a spoof Dancing With The Stars kind of entertainment video that’s a mock of a Ukrainian group that does this kind of satanic, occult type of music video.”
“And I mean, Zelensky was selected, like so many of our leaders. And honestly, with big tech and with election fraud these days, we don’t know how many leaders all around the world have been selected for us and weren’t actually voted in,”
Putin knew exactly what he was doing when he invaded Ukraine, Logan explained. He did not go directly to Kiev. Instead, Russia went to all those Biolabs in the country. So we should not just believe our leaders. After all, they lied about corona.
Biden before and after a rigged election…
More recently, in a military operation under the leadership of then-Vice President Joe Biden, a US airstrike on a Doctors Without Borders hospital in Afghanistan on 3 October 2015, killed 30 medical staff and patients. A subsequent Doctors Without Borders inquiry found the “US knew site was safe from Taliban* but bombed it anyway”, as one headline from The Independent put it.
The deadly attack on health workers was closely followed up by the bombing of the Abs Rural Hospital in Yemen on 15 August 2016, when US-manufactured Paveway-series aerial bombs were dropped by the Saudi-led, US/UK-backed coalition in what Amnesty international called “the fourth attack in 10 months on a [Doctors Without Borders] facility in Yemen”.
US and UK involvement in the ongoing Saudi siege of Yemen, which UN experts estimate has killed 377,000 civilians — 70% under the age of five — has largely gone unmentioned amid widespread Western allegations of Russian “war crimes”.
But the Biden administration’s insistence that Russian President Vladimir Putin is a “war criminal” faces another serious hurdle internationally – Biden’s own complicity in the bloody US war in Iraq that saw millions of Iraqis killed over the course of two decades
“Joe Biden did so much more than vote for the war”, according to University of Illinois–Chicago history professor Dr Barbara Ransby, in a recent mini-documentary narrated by Danny Glover, “Worth the Price? Joe Biden and the Launch of the Iraq War”.
“He was chairman of the powerful Senate Committee on Foreign Relations Senate Committee. He really used his control over that committee to make sure that a majority of the US Senate voted to authorise the war”.
“It’s questionable whether the authorisation to start the war could have even passed Congress without all that Biden did to get it approved”, she explained. “He really did play a major role in bringing us into the Iraq War… He bears much more responsibility than many other senators who simply voted for it”.
“Putin’s terror War!” History will judge, “He’s a crazy dwarf, who’s trying to live in the past!” Said an old Ukraini woman a week before it started. I hope she’s safe, with her family! Slava Ukraini! ✌️🇺🇦🙏
Yes! That old woman knows what’s going on!
What about Bush, Clinton And Obama ? There are `angles` who destroyed many country. Ask CNN for refreshing your memory.
@BB yes 👍
@BB say that to the face of the old woman i dare you .. how unsympathetic of you … do you enjoy suffering of others just because people around you suffer? How vile is that?
“What sucked for the Russian military ” I’m officially old.
I hope things get better, feel so sad for the lives of the civilians out there. 🥺
