Yeah, I guess that's the thing about our noble military. Russians are preserving infrastructure and providing humanitarian corridors, while we concentrate on bombing the innocent civilians for false flag optics.

Did you notice no more stories lately of "Russian atrocities in Ukraine?" They all turned out to be fakes or lies. Even Bucha -- appears to have been masterminded by the Brits!

But you probably didn't notice that US and NATO supplied howitzers have been bombing civilian targets in Donestsk for the past week or so. Yesterday they hit a maternity hospital. Shocking! War Crime! No -- SILENCE. That's because the Western mass media is ignoring it.

This is how the maternity hospital in Donetsk, which was shelled by the Armed Forces of Ukraine yesterday, looks like now.

just like yugoslavia. our media hid ethnic cleansing our side performed there too. news seem to make up stories about other, while embelishing ours. its not truth, its sales.

Where is the proof? Notice how the picture has nothing in it except some pieces of broken concrete, making identifying the location impossible. Such an egregious war crime and no videos and one picture which could be taken anywhere in the world, including Syria or Detroit ? What exactly prevents them from filiming hours and hours of video and terrabytes of HD pictures from every angle like these pesky Ukie did when Ruscists bombed their maternity ward in Mariupol? Reminds me of that "hanged pregnant woman" video which somehow got lost by the great independent journalist with an impeccable integrity and of which only one blurry screengrab is paraded around - typical sloppy Ruscist bullshit aimed at gullible mouthbreathers. At least when Globohomo Nazi Joo Clown makes his fakes - it's in HD, shot from many angles, with vibrant colors, exact geolocation and dozens of very persuasive crisis actors showing real emotions better than any Hollywood star ever could.

And where's the proof of NATO shells hitting it? If they somehow identified the projectiles as 155mm NATO, why not show their homework to the world? Let me guess: the dog ate it?

FortwayeAsFuckJoeBiden says

SILENCE. That's because the Western mass media is ignoring it.

Yeah, right. Let's read what Lavrov has to say about it, shall we?

Here you go, from his recent interview to the BBC:

He then accused the BBC of not uncovering the truth of what had been happening to civilians in separatist-held areas of eastern Ukraine, "when civilians were being bombed by Kyiv's troops for eight years".

I stressed that over the course of six years, the BBC had many times contacted the leadership in the separatist-run areas asking for permission to go and see what was happening. We were refused entry every single time.

Russia has accused Ukraine of genocide. However, in 2021, eight civilians were killed in the rebel-held areas, according to self-proclaimed pro-Russian "officials", and seven the year before. While every death was a tragedy, I said, that did not constitute a genocide.

I suggested that if genocide really had taken place, then the Luhansk and Donetsk separatists would have been interested in us going there. Why were we not let in, I asked.

"I don't know," said Mr Lavrov.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-61825525

Notice how he does not refute the "rebels" own data on civvies killed during preceding 2 years which was 15 in TOTAL. Before Putin's coming out on the real goals of the war (land grab a-la Peter the Great, in case you didn't follow) the supposed "constant shelling of civilians by the Ukrainian army" was cited as one of the main reasons for it. And turned out to be a pile of bullshit according to the data provided by the "rebels" themselves.

Notice how he does not refute the fact that they don't allow Western media to go and see the "evidence" of the supposed "genocide" and doesn't answer why this is happening? All the usually sharp-tongued Lavrov has to say is "I don't know".

Alleged Russian IFV is hit, meaning that the squad inside it now has to walk like Infantry, not ride like Mechanized Infantry.

Meanwhile AFU casualties are 500+ per day:

Mr Podolyak's suggestion that 100 to 200 Ukrainian soldiers are dying each day is higher than previous estimates. On Thursday, Ukraine's Defence Minister, Oleksii Reznikov, said Ukraine was losing 100 soldiers a day, and 500 more were injured.

The differing casualty figures are a sign of how difficult it is to get precise information from the battlefield.

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-61742736

Since you can safely quadruple the number of KIA as WIA to get total casualties. Maybe a bit more to account for MIA , AWOL, and POW.

Far from condemning this behavior, or insisting that Kiev hits the brakes on the fascist behavior, the West continues to embrace the Ukrainian regime as the Current Thing.

Weapons and money continue to flow into the country, and high-ranking western officials, including famous celebrities, continue to align themselves with the troubled government there.

U.K. Prime Minister Boris Johnson, Hollywood celebrity Ben Stiller and U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland have visited Ukraine, which we are told is in a day to day fight for its very survival. None were wearing protective gear in an apparent war zone.

Four months into Russia’s Ukraine offensive, President Vladimir Putin conducted his second purge of its high command. Gen.

The ONLY THING THIS WILL DO is drive energy prices up. This won't hurt RUSSIA which is ENTIRELY ENERGY INDEPENDENT, like the United States was, up until Joe Biden took office.

Jesus. If Russian energy goes offline, Russia will stop exporting oil to India and China, this means India and China will then compete (more) with Europe and the United States for energy.

A LOT Of Russian oil production will have to be destroyed before RUSSIA is harmed.

EVERYTHING that was claimed by our bullshit propaganda media that Trump was going to do, is going on now. Congratulations. This is the establishment MORONS that we have in charge. Enjoy.

You're celebrating the fucking over of yourself.

Why would you have to ban a pro-Russian party in Ukraine, if the Ukrainians, in a majority, are in favor of the Ukrainian war effort against Russia?

MAYBE, most Ukrainians are AGAINST this stupid fucking war. But hard to tell. I do know that it's mandatory for all men of fighting age to fight. They have conscription for a military effort that appears to be a hopeless cause. They're going to die, and it won't change the outcome. It MIGHT reduce the power of the Russian military, but that's it, and if the US and Russia get in a tangle, it won't matter, because it will be a nuclear exchange.

What's that a picture of? Post WWII Dresden after the Allies bombed it? Are you suggesting this is a modern picture, taken in 2022? What's wrong with an authentic picture?

If you wanted to make it more believable, you should have shown some photographs of maybe Bosnia or Serbia - although those are kind of old. Parts of Libya would have been convincing - maybe even Syria or Lebanon.

I'll give you a hint: countries that banned the Nazi party during WW2 didn't do it because majority in those countries supported Germany. You can scrape up the remaining grey cells to answer your own misguided question.

@Ceffer I see you've been dumpster diving again. Just so you know: the snapshot that you attached quotes Mizintsev. Google him (or duckduckgo). He's the piece of shit who bombed the theater in Mariupol. You know, the one that was double-purposed as a shelter. He's the piece of shit who's done the same to the maternity hospital in there. He's the piece of shit who first made his bones by committing atrocities in Syria (i.e. Aleppo) But what can be more reputable than Hague material who now goes out of his way to shift the blame, amiright?

Again, just saying I'm wrong doesn't explain how I'm wrong. I MIGHT be wrong, and if I am, I don't currently understand how I'm wrong, so I need to explained to me in order for me to reconsider my position.

You don't have to censor or ban anything, if they are wrong. You just explain how they are wrong.

Censorship in the United States today is being done to protect the radical left which are basically communists today. Censorship was imposed in the early 2000's to protect the far right, which was toying with being fascists - that's why we have the Patriot Act and "Homeland" Security, and why 5 years of comments on Yahoo! under news stories about the Iraq War "mistake" were all deleted. Because it was "a mistake" despite millions of posts explaining the situation.

FortwayeAsFuckJoeBiden says

Mechanized brigade ( 4,000 soldiers in tanks and trucks) turns into a platoon (30 men on foot) of survivors running from their burning vehicles.

richwicks says

This, right there. This is bunch of crap and you know it. Because PROPAGANDA WORKS! That's why MSM distorts reality in most stupid ways, and it still works. That's why readers here on patnet get (rightfully) aggravated when they see MSM distorting reality, and bring it here, and talk about it.

Propaganda demoralizes, seeks and exploits mental weaknesses, destroys the fabric of society. That it works is not even up for debate. That's why there was Goebbels, and that's why there are Kiselev and Solovyov - all 3 contributed to converting their respective nations into bunch of fucking zombies.

The only question is "to what degree". To what degree does propaganda work, how much exactly does it destroy the fabric of society. Can the society withstand that damage because it's in the right and the other side is in the wrong? You know what? The answer is irrelevant if there's FUCKING WAR going on. Ukraine has done exactly what needed to be done, and they should've done it sooner.

But of course you know it, being propagandist yourself and all that. You are just being dishonest, and I'm just pointing out the obvious.

It's somewhat cute when you suggest that Ukraine shouldn't have banned pro-Rashist parties. Almost as cute as this one pro-Rashist stooge I know tried to convince me that US Government shouldn't have banned Kaspersky from federal IT departments.

Why do you automatically trust what the United States government says when they lie to you so often?

Where's the Ghost of Kiev? Well, all those soldiers died valiantly on Snake Island.

We'll start to know what happened in this stupid fucking war after the war is over, and not before. Until then, it's official government policy to lie, which is why the Smith Mundt-Act was updated under Obama, the asshole that overthrew Ukraine in 2014.

richwicks says

I don't automatically trust what US government says. I kinda told you that quite a few times. Poor memory? Or multiple actors with poorly managed communication behind one handle? That would also explain constant requests for backquotes.

richwicks says

We DO know what's happening in this stupid fucking war. Unless of course you get your data from Gonzalo Lira and such. On large scale, that is. Little things may be hidden by the fog of war, but bird's-eye view has been clear for a while. The only debatable thing at this point is who's going to prevail.

I've listened to him, that doesn't mean his word is gold. He COULD be a Russian propagandist. Rachael Maddow and Steven Colbert turned out to be propagandists for the Democratic party and I used to listen to those two assholes. Once I determine what Lira is, then I can decide if he was just another asshole stringing people along.

In this case, propaganda doesn't matter anyhow. It doesn't matter what I believe or think. The purpose of propaganda in this war is to give support for our government to send billions to Ukraine which is obviously stolen, it doesn't matter what I believe, they're going to do it anyhow. Neocons are anti-Russian and they run this country. Neocons though are just mostly common criminals, they love money more than they hate Russia.

mostly reader says

No, "little things" are not hidden by the fog of war. Tremendously huge things are. It wasn't a "small thing" after all that Hussein didn't have a weapons of mass destruction program. That wasn't a trivial little "oops". That was the fundamental reason for that war, or that was the lie anyhow.

You had the temerity to deny that Victoria Nuland was picking out the next leader of Ukraine in her intercepted phone call with Geoffrey Pyatt. It was at this point, I decided that your opinion about anything in this situation was worthless. If you can't realize the US government just did a coup when it has been caught RED HANDED, what thinking of yours is worth considering? It's not a trivial minor point the US overthrew Ukraine in 2014. It's no a coincidence that a conflict immediately happened between Eastern and Western Ukraine after that coup. That's not a minor thing.

I was dumbfounded by your ridiculous and childish denial and I will never treat you seriously again when it comes to this subject. I will listen to you, but unless you have references and original information that is cited, I don't consider your supposed thinking worthwhile. I don't believe you think when it comes to this conflict.

Russia, supposedly, has dedicated 10% of its forces to this conflict, if I'm to believe what I'm hearing. Could be a lie - we'll see. But the Russian economy isn't imploding, they have stated YEARS ago they are willing to fight a war of attrition with the west, they have RECENTLY stated that they regard this war as a proxy war between the West and Russia, and that inclusion of Ukraine is an "existential threat" to the survival of Russia.

Now, if that's true, IF it's true, Russia will use nuclear weaponry if they have to. If they are cornered, they will cut off energy to all Western nations, and if that doesn't work, they will resort to nuclear weaponry. But I don't think they'll have to do that. They are still playing with kid gloves. They could cut off energy supplies today, and they haven't. They are FLUSH with cash since the energy prices have skyrocketed. They're going to take their sweet goddamned time with this. Winter in Europe will be interesting.

And all this shit is happening because Victoria Nuland, the cunt wife of the Neocon Robert Kagan, for some inexplicable reason hasn't been jailed - well, not really inexplicable when you realize Neocon scum has been in complete control of this nation for nearly 20 years, and only lost a little influence under Trump - minor amounts of influence.

richwicks says

You know where else my opinion happens to align with "the narrative", at least for the most part? Off the bat: 1) Laws of physics. 2) Classification of Hitler as a historical figure 3) Pol Pot and his effect on Cambodia. I didn't rely on US sources to study those subjects either (I didn't even have access to US sources when I studied those subjects). Likewise, I didn't need to rely on US sources to understand the Russian war against Ukraine. But guess what? Good news! Apparently, US narrative is not always wrong.

You claim that you are an engineer. You then MUST have at least basic understanding of inductive reasoning and what's required to make it valid. You MUST understand that you can't jump from particular to general without some serious ground work. Yet you don't seem to grasp the concept. Interesting.

richwicks says

You had the temerity to deny that Victoria Nuland was picking out the next leader of Ukraine in her intercepted phone call with Geoffrey Pyatt.

Bullshit. You lie. Again. I never said such a thing. I never denied that Victoria Nuland was picking out the next leader of Ukraine. Aren't you tired of lying?

However, I did deny that "US did a coup" (your words, not mine). More precisely, I said that there's no evidence to that but there's circumstantial evidence to the opposite. That's different. I also gave my reasons, and asked you a question which destroys your narrative. You dodged it back then and keep dodging it. I can repeat it here: knowing that the revolution was already going on for some months (another thing on which I had to educate you), and knowing that Nuland's line was compromised, how come there are no recordings of US actually preparing the revolution (that would be doing the coup)? Takeaway from the leaked conversation was that US is injecting itself into the situation which had already unveiled. Not that US created the situation. You must understand that Russian produced worst of the worst of those recordings. How come that's the worst that they produced?

I also pointed out this propaganda technique: pick out a fact and turn it into something that it's not, yet sounds similar. This allows to build a narrative which is not based on reality, but appears as if it is. You use this technique a lot.

richwicks says

I was dumbfounded by that...
