How many Ukrainian civilians have been killed by Russia (many by execution) compared to Russian civilians killed by Ukraine (allegedly) inside Russia? Where is your condemnation of that terrorism?
Many if the executions were done by ukrainian government squads against those opposing the coup in 2014 before Russians even arrived. The mass graves of civilians were dug then. Those people in that part of Ukraine did not support obama’s coup.
It was obvious when Ukraine recaptured some areas. The ukrainians knew exactly where the gold teeth were hidden. They knew because they hid them before the russians arrived.
But you read otherwise, didnt you. The same people who called jan 6 an insurrection told you the russians executed all those civilians.
Let’s just totally ignore the Russians launching over a dozen cruise missiles, dropping Russian airborne infantry into Kiev, and rolling tanks across the borders on the first day of the war.
The Russians started this. The Ukrainians have every right to fight back and fight back hard.
Most of the soldiers in on the front lines in Ukrainian army a year ago are dead or permanently injured. Ukraine has most likely gone through two or three generations of conscripts in the last year.
So yes, the Ukrainian army is still near collapse. The manpower available for conscription continues to dwindle as remaining men of draft age escape the country, die in battle, or are permanently disabled.
The Russians appear have been in no hurry. They attempted to reach a settlement to end fighting year ago. Instead the UK and US torpedoed the deal. In addition, Angela Merkel openly bragged that the Minsk agreements had been a sham to give Ukraine time to build and train its army.
The US and its NATO allies have effectively burned the bridges and made a reasonable negotiated settlement effectively impossible. The only way the war is likely to end is with Russia dictating the terms of surrender to the Ukrainians or a collapse in support in key NATO countries.
Yes, Washington can’t tell the difference between a Russian and Ukrainian so the more men who die on the battlefield the better in their book. The longer they can keep Ukraine fighting the better.
Killing a generation of husbands and fathers in Ukraine is sacrifice the neocons in Washington are willing to make.
