In Donetsk every day children die under the bombing of Ukrainians.

Russians don't bomb civilian targets.

To get truthful information, you should read sources from both sides.

Saturday marks 10 months since the start of the Russian invasion.

10 months? It appears Putin's 'special military operation' which even he has now come to call a 'war' has lasted longer than he and his fellow cretins in the Kremlin thought. Now they have to empty jails to get Russian citizens to fight and die in Ukraine for them, where the ex-cons will have the opportunity to join other Russian soldiers and mercenaries robbing, raping and killing innocent civilians while the Russian establishment, stays in their mansions and continues its imperialistic expansion. Russians go back across the border, leave Ukraine alone, being known as an aging gas station is not FLATTERING, but it's better than being known as a territory grabbing butcher of innocent civilians. Or are Russia and its global supporters proud that a 16 year old girl (see article above) was among those killed in this latest attack.

What is needed right now, today, Christmas Day, is for every world leader to go on TV and deliver their total and emphatic condemnation in the loudest and most resounding terms of the vile and mentally-deranged cruelty and suffering being inflicted on totally innocent men, women, children and babies in Ukraine.

Furthermore, their "Christmas Peace" message must include a reference imploring all normal Russian people to turn against their vicious and sadistic regime, in the hope they can bring this barbarity to an end, and depose their despicable war-criminal leader as soon as possible - the Revolution must begin now.

How atrocious does the situation have to become before all of the world's leaders speak out loud-and-clear, today and everyday til this is over ??

When all you hear about one side is of their weapons killing soldiers, and the other side is of their weapons killing civilians, your reaction should be the same as when you heard only good things about Trump, and bad things about Biden.

Interesting that the same thing was said even before the prisoner swaps.

President Xi of China wants Putin to end the war.

If only telepathy was a thing. The vile little homunculus in the Kremlin would both shrivel and explode at the same time from the profound depth of loathing I feel for him. And I'm sure I'm not alone.

Why did the world stand by and do nothing while they were dying?

Why do our pro-invasion friends here think Ukraine has no right to defend itself from Russian backed separatists?

This end-of-the-year revenge attack on Kherson is filled with a dose of cynical Christmas spirit from the hypocritical chest-crossing, genuflecting "christian" in the Kremlin. With all the killing, destruction, displacement and suffering he has inflicted on MILLIONS of people this year little petty Putin has accumulated enough bad Karma to go down in history as an inhuman monster deserving of a million-fold punishment in the next year rather than the "next life".

Putin the butcher delivered his gifts.

Russians don't bomb civilian targets.

Of course they do. Have you seen no pictures at all of Ukraine towns and cities? All those damaged apartment buildings and everything else destroyed, all by Russian missiles and artillery. They do not self destruct.

And yes, Ukraine forces using Soviet weapons are also killing civilians on the other side, but the difference is the Ukraine forces shoot at Russian forces shooting at them. Russian forces just shoot in the direction of towns to try to kill Ukrainians. They purposely target civilian infrastructure like power and water which they have reported on themselves in Russian news.

This is a war. Ukraine is fighting to push Russians and separatists out of Ukraine territory that they have subjugated. With Russians hiding in Ukraine houses for warmth and shelter, amongst Ukraine residents, there is going to be casualties of civilians while Russian soldiers are killed. This is unavoidable and only happening because of the Russian invasion.

People will always die during war. Civilians will always be collateral damage. As the war is only being fought in Ukraine territory, those civilians dying are likely to be 95% Ukraine with only a few imported Russian workers added to the mix. If the fighting was on Russian territory as well then Russian civilians would be dying at a much higher rate.

Ukraine people support their nation freeing itself and understand if they are behind enemy lines their forces will be shooting in their direction. They pray they will survive but they fully understand why the artillery falls near or on them when Russians are all around them.
