Ukraine and its allies continue to demand billions for military defense, arguing for their pet cause of “self-determination”.

Meanwhile, as Russians have been arguing for at least 300 years, only they have the right to determine whether Ukrainians actually exist.

18 killed, including 9 children.
You know what's on my mind today?

Pictures and videos of murdered children, calls for empathy and humane-ness don't work and do not protect other kids - ones who are still alive.

Those who make the decisions don't watch them. They do not react and they use other motives for action.⤵️

Trolls OTD in 2022 about #Bucha ..
1. It never happened.
2. They were all Nazis so deserved what didn't happen
3. They were crisis actors
4. What didn't happen to all the Nazis who deserved it/crisis actors who pretended was on the site of a biolab.
5. Now do Gaza.

Repeat.

This is 9-year-old Sofiia Yavorska from Poltava. Yesterday, a Russian Kh-22 cruise missile killed her along with her parents when their home was hit.

The strike on the residential building has now claimed 12 lives, including 2 children.

Kennedy’s explosive analysis proves Russian economy is bankrupt.

Craig exposes hidden defense debt and a credit bubble, aggravated by punitive interest rates and sanctions. It is not an economic fortress Russia but a house of cards.

Typical cynical take. Western sanctions and record increases in military spending have contributed to a 21% interest rate within Russia, negatively impacting the quality of life of ultra-wealthy Russians and their children. Don’t blame the oligarchs, blame the sanctions #freetherussiansuperyachts
Putin’s daughter living it up in Paris as a DJ, eating pasta and reading Vogue, while her dad bombs Ukraine. Must be tough living in that 'bubble' of obscurity with yachts, mansions, and millions. Truly a relatable struggle.

Without exception, proxy wars are morally evil. That is, unless the proxy war aligns with your political positioning, then they’re always great.

In those cases, you should sidestep acknowledging that it’s a proxy war though, to avoid confusion.

It’s time for Tehran to take a cold, hard look at its proxy strategy
The recent blow-for-blow strikes by Iran and Israel are bound to result in some introspection in Tehran. It is the first time since the launch of the “Axis of Resistance” some 20 years ago that Tehran...

Overheard recently in conversation:
“Multipolarity is the system of competitive authoritarianisms”.

Best not to think too hard about this one, if you’re anyone trying to avoid being pinned down to morally coherent politics.

Good news for WW3 fans: Partriarch of Moscow and all the Great, and Small, and White Russia, Patriarch Kirill (aka, KGB agent ‘Mikhailov’) has told Christians that they shouldn’t fear the end of the world, an entirely sane response to escalating tensions, and Russia’s threats to use nuclear weapons.
Russia's top priest Kirill commented that Christians shouldn't fear nuclear weapons as they mustn't be afraid of the end of the world.
