| #8 I was passed out in a bar once, and in walks the biggest Mexi-can. He proceeds to piss up the place, like as if he'll never piss again! In the barkeep's face, on walls, on the table, everywhere, man! Then this jewish-russian russophobe got up and gave him the probe. And since then, we haven't seen that fcuker from Tenochtitlan. |

| #5 " suggesting it was being fired from nearby, in Russian-controlled territory", Ukraine has proven their ability to manipulate news. Everyone speaks of Russian propaganda but the Ukrainians are well know to be good at that sort of effort. If you constantly appeal for arms, money and troops you must demonstrate the need. Winter is coming and hopefully hostilities will end soon. Knowing how the Russians can suffer Putin will not back down. He will be there till it is finished. Replace him and one would hope for better days but his replacement could be far worse. Whoever it is will finish where Putin left off. To show strength and will. No room for diplomacy. No room for another Afghanistan- for them or us. |

| #4 ^#2, My beef is with Volodymyr and Soros. Ukrainians not so much. Seems a deliberate effort to destabilize these areas. 8 years Putin was pushed. Say what you will about Putin but he stays the course. He wants inspection by NATO to see what the Ukrainians have done to a nuclear site the Russians maintain. The destruction could easily be another Chernobyl. |

| #2 Dale, The numbers I'm seeing for total Ukranian military and civilian casualties is around 15,000. 250-300K deaths. Even if we rounded that up to 500K, with a 2020 population of 44.5 million they're not hurting yet but they need to keep an eye on things. I appreciate that you are using multiple sources - that's a good, smart, and wise thing to do. But right now, despite the...well, intense dislike that the Ukranians inspire in some quarters, and their acknowledged political integrity issues, they have shown themselves to be consistently more reliable than the Russians. Simply my .02; YMMV of course. Mike |

| #1 In the western media. Entirely different story is being told in the eastern world. Deliberate misinformation to keep the money flowing. Teenagers drafted in Ukraine with little to no training. 250,000 to 300000 Ukrainian deaths and disabled have occurred by way of leaked Ukrainian peoples. Shelling of Nuclear reactor is a daily Ukrainian effort. I am not a troll. I simply glean information from a variety of sources. Many countries are now siding with Russia and China. Latin America a surprise to many. Ukraine will lay waste to area rather than allowing Russia to secure any benefits of land resources. Who hurts the most? the west. Long cold winter is coming. |
