Instead, it was ISIS & the US warned Russia something was brewing... https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-68642162 Edit: as much distain as I have for Russia, it's for the Government & cronies, not the general populace. No one should have to suffer this. You knew Putin would have to try to connect the attack to Ukraine. BBC reported that at the time the US warned Russia that there was a potential attack, Putin said that the US was just trying to scare Russians. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides, neither side is going to put their current-now movements on youtube because that would be a blatant announcement of what they are doing for the other side to target. Cletus is basically getting excited over stock footage of train transportation for the sake of pretending to know something. Everyone gets to see the big ships go boom after the fact. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Icarus27k Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 (edited) I've recently been talking to a particularly talkative Twitter account that is obviously a Russian government propaganda thing pretending to be pro-Ukrainian. It's painfully obvious, and I could tell even before I knew there was a lot of previous reporting on "pro-Russia trolls pretending to be Ukrainians online".* So far, I haven't let on that I know he's really pro-Russia. It's interesting watching him work. He's basically giving pro-Russia points of view, but trying to sound reasonable and calm, not reacting emotionally whenever I give an actual pro-Ukraine point that contradicts him. He usually responds with something like, "That may be true, but what about [dubious point that hypes the effectiveness of Russian weapons or some other shit]?" I am amazed how dumb Russian trolls think people are though. *See this 2021 warning from Ukrainian intel about just this phenomena. https://ssu.gov.ua/novyny/sbu-vykryla-ahenturnu-merezhu-spetssluzhb-rf-yaka-destabilizuvala-sytuatsiiu-v-ukraini-cherez-telegramkanaly Edited March 31 by Icarus27k 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sieg67 Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 Kremlin Reportedly Offering Money to Ukrainians to Testify About Ukrainian ‘War Crimes’ https://www.kyivpost.com/post/30359 Residents of the Russian-occupied cities of Lysychansk and Sievierodonetsk – in Ukraine’s Luhansk region in the east – are being offered 100,000 rubles ($1,080) to create “written testimonies about war crimes” committed by the Ukrainian military, Artem Lysohor, the head of the Luhansk regional military administration said in a post on Telegram. To receive the money, you should claim that you suffered from Ukrainian military shelling, Lysohor said. Kyiv Post has not been able to independently verify Lysohor’s statement at press time, which was also reported on by the state-run news agency Ukrinform. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Icarus27k Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 One thing this war has taught me: the U.S. has the best intelligence community in the world. I am reasonably sure top officials in foreign governments are double agents for the US and that we regularly listen in on world leaders' conversations. Understandably, the US keeps that on the down low though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just making a decision to approve additional aid to Ukraine has probably mucked up Russia's plans to a degree because they were probably making some military decisions on the assumption this aid would be delayed or not happen. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess that many Senators had left their votes with the clerk & then left the floor. There might have been 30-40 on the floor, including staff and there was maybe around a 15 by the end of the vote, yet the totals kept changing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Master-Debater131 Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 Eyewitnesses: Kremlin Troops Dug Into Chornobyl’s Irradiated Dirt, Cooked Food Over Radioactive Campfires, Thousands Exposed https://www.kyivpost.com/post/31734 "Russian soldiers invading Ukraine in Feb. 2022 ignored station worker warnings to avoid terrain contaminated by radiation from the Chornobyl Nuclear Power Plant accident, and hundreds of them lived for more than a month in trenches dug into ground saturated with potentially lethal isotopes, eyewitnesses and nuclear scientists said. Valeriy Semenov, Security Chief at the Chornobyl Nuclear Power Plant from Feb. 23 - April 3, 2022, in an interview with Kyiv Post, said Russian troops entering the premises showed little interest in research compiled over almost two decades on fallout and hot spot sites around the station." I dont know if this is true or propaganda by Ukraine. But Russia is so dumb that this is entirely believable. it also lines up with reporting from the start of the war of Russians digging trenches in the highly irradiated areas around Chernobyl. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
