@Antiquesaving,

Harris and her cohorts spent years telling the people how Trump is the greatest evil since Hitler and Stalin

Still waiting for you to provide one example of Kamala Harris saying this.

@Antiquesaving,

Harris and her cohorts spent years telling the people how Trump is the greatest evil since Hitler and Stalin,

Can you provide an example of Kamala Harris stating this?

Nuking hundreds of thousands of civilians save no one. In fact, the nuking was one of the most brutal and cynical atrocities ever committed:

As Brig. Gen. Carter W. Clarke, the officer in charge of preparing MAGIC intercepted cable summaries in 1945, stated:

"….we brought them [the Japanese] down to an abject surrender through the accelerated sinking of their merchant marine and hunger alone, and when we didn't need to do it, and we knew we didn't need to do it, and they knew that we knew we didn't need to do it, we used them as an experiment for two atomic bombs."

As the historical record shows, six of the seven US WWII five star officers concluded that the nuking of hundreds of thousands of civilians was unnecessary. As Admiral Chester W. Nimitz stated:

"The atomic bomb played no decisive part, from a purely military standpoint, in the defeat of Japan. The Japanese had, in fact, already sued for peace before the destruction of Hiroshima and before the Russian entry into the war…."

Truman's own diaries show that he prolonged hostilities until the nukes were ready. We also know that he lied to the US public when he stated that Hiroshima was a "military target".

Prior to nuking Hiroshima, the U.S. military had already obliterated over 60 Japanese cities with napalm and white phosphorous. This conclusively proves that Hiroshima and Nagasaki had little value other than as an opportunity for the US military to conduct nuke testing on human subjects.

In this connection, Paul Tibbets is on record as stating that Hiroshima was set aside as a "virgin" test city. Additionally, the primary targets at Hiroshima were residential in nature with the overwhelming majority of casualties being civilian. In fact, Honkawa Elementary school was mere meters from the epicentre of the Hiroshima nuke strike.

@JJE,

No one lives in Chasiv Yar. Been a war zone for a year and a half.

Anyone clipped there are combatants.

Wrong.

As stated in the article:

Six people were killed, including a 14-year-old girl, when glide bombs struck five locations across the city.

the United States dropped atomic bombs on Japan, killing thousands of people.......It was a decisive move that helped bring about the end of World War II

Pathetic propaganda still trying to justify an unequivocal war crime.

The Modi summit is another in long series of disasters for Putin and his inept cronies.

Putin's weak leadership skills are highlighted my the fact Russia has experienced a series of Islamist terror attacks recently, prompting questions about whether its extensive security agencies have been distracted by the invasion of Ukraine and the internal crackdown on anti-war dissent.

In March, the Afghan branch of IS, known as Islamic State Khorasan Province, claimed responsibility for a mass shooting at a Moscow concert hall, the deadliest terror attack in years, which killed 139 people.

And in June, gunmen opened fire in two cities in Russia’s north Caucasus region of Dagestan, targeting a synagogue, two Orthodox churches and a police post, killing at least 15 police officers and a priest.

This will help Trump shore up the whacko anti-vaxxer vote.

Ukraine has said large numbers of Russian servicemen gave themselves up during the Kursk offensive that began on 6 August.

One 22-year-old Russian PoW – a conscript – said he and others were “simply abandoned by our command”.

Kyiv has developed an increasingly ambitious drone programme and a new drone command. The commander-in-chief of Ukraine’s armed forces said about 200 critical infrastructure sites had been attacked. All were connected with “military logistics”. They included factories, fuel dumps and refineries.

The strategy appears to be working. Fires have continued to burn at a major oil depot in Proletarsk, a town in Russia’s Rostov oblast, four days after it was struck by drones. Another storage tank exploded. Firefighters have been unable to put out the blaze.

As many as 3,000 Russian troops are believed to be trapped in the Glushkovsky district, which Ukraine is likely to try to seize. Over the past week Ukraine has bombed three bridges and a pontoon across the Seym River. It has also blasted a Russian border post in the town of Tetkino, farther west.

@JJE

a PR exercise........pre-evacuation population 5k

Russian officials say 133,000 Russians have fled.

When Russian troops overran Ukrainian cities in 2022, locals staged mass demonstrations. Near Kursk, by contrast, there has been apathy from Russian locals.

Until now, most Russians have ignored the war, regarding it as something far away. Now, though, the conflict has reached their doorstep.

Russian officials say 133,000 people have fled. Many Russians feel abandoned. Slowly but surely, support for Putin’s “special military operation” is slipping.

So far, the operation has been a stunning success for Kyiv, exceeding expectations. Mobile Ukrainian groups have made rapid progress. They now control about 80 settlements, including the border town of Sudzha. . But Russia has been unable to halt this invasion.

For Putin, this has been a personal humiliation. Hundreds of Russian conscripts – sent in as reinforcements – have surrendered. Ukrainian journalists have toured Sudzha, reporting on humanitarian aid delivery to Russians hiding in basements.

Ukrainian troops have now captured the Russian town of Sudzha. 

The town is the largest that Ukraine has claimed control over so far.

Yesterday, a Ukrainian news channel released a video showing soldiers taking down Russian flags from an administrative building in the town and handing out humanitarian aid.

They failed to seize KNPP and now it is a mop-up operation in Kursk for the Russians, but the AFU have reverted to their political and media goals in absence of anything that could be considered a military objective.

It is usually a sign that something is rattling the Kremlin when they start using euphemisms to refer to it. The Kremlin’s full-scale assault on Ukraine was not, for a long time, a “war” or an “invasion”, but instead a “special military operation”.

Now, as Ukrainian forces advance deep into Russian territory, there is a similar linguistic game at work. The FSB, Russia’s principal security agency, announced that “measures” were being taken against an “armed provocation”.

Putin and other officials have referred variously to a “situation”, a “terrorist attack” and “the events in Kursk region”. Notably absent are words such as “invasion” or “Ukrainian control” of Russian territory.

Ukraine now controls 74 settlements in the Kursk region – including Sudzha – and has been handing out humanitarian aid and pulling down Russian flags in the area.

Kyiv’s long-term plans are unclear, but the longer the incursion lasts, the harder it is for the Russian president, Vladimir Putin, to brush it off as a hiccup in an otherwise successful war effort.

On Monday, the acting regional governor began listing the number of settlements taken over by the Ukrainian army. An irritable Putin cut him off, telling him to leave such things for the military.

The exchange was unintentionally revealing, said Olga Vlasova, a visiting scholar at the Russia Institute at King’s College London.

“You could hear the level of anxiety in the governor’s voice later in the meeting. It was quite clear that he wasn’t prepared for war to be fought on his territory,” she said.

“And when he tried to share the information that he had, Putin wouldn’t allow it. He wants to stop the communication of anything that will raise the level of anxiety in Russian society.”

Putin's "special military operation" was presented to the Russian people as a way of boosting Russia’s national security.

Two and a half years into this war there isn’t much sign of "safe and secure".

There are more Nato forces on Russia’s borders, with Sweden and Finland having joined the Nato Alliance; Russian towns are coming under regular Ukrainian drone attack; now Ukrainian soldiers are seizing Russian territory.

@Falseflagsteve/Antiquesaving,

..... it’s the one Putin blew allegedly.

> Ukraine will pull out......

Who or what Putin "blew" is irrelevant to this conversation.

Same goes for when people choose to "pull out".

@JJE/Antiquesaving,

they have now turned up to help brotherly Kursk and are having an impact.

> You in the comfort of your homes behind your computer may think it will boost Ukraine moral but that will last only up until the death notices arrive to family members in Ukraine.

Russian propaganda and fake news stories have attacked Ukraine's right to exist and accused it of being influenced by SATANISM. Russian propaganda also accuses NATO of controlling Ukraine and building up military infrastructure in Ukraine to threaten Russia. This disinformation has been spread by Russian web brigades.

I don't get the joke. The song and video have nothing to do with policemen stealing underwear and it's a pretty bad track from the Floyds.

The song is about a man whose "hobby" is stealing women's lingerie from washing lines. According to Roger Waters, "Arnold Layne" was actually based on a real person: "Both my mother and Syd's mother had students as lodgers because there was a girls' college up the road so there were constantly great lines of bras and knickers on our washing lines and 'Arnold' or whoever he was, had bits off our washing lines."

Nice attempt at twisting the facts to suit your narrative about Japan. It's not making headlines in other countries because it simply didn't happen there.

Rubbish.

It's so common in England that Pink Floyd had a hit song about it about 60 years ago:

More than two dozen Russians gathered in a video published on Thursday, saying Putin had been undersold on how dire the situation is for local civilians as Ukrainian troops force their way past the border.

"These lies enable the local residents to die. The Chief of the General staff recently told you that the situation is under control," one of the residents said in the video, according to a translation from CNN.

"But today, huge furious battles are underway in the Sudzhansky and Korenevsky districts,"

Ukrainian units have now broken past Russian defensive lines in at least two areas.

"The sky is completely dominated by Ukrainian drones," wrote military blogger VChK-OPGU, who is known to have ties to Russia's military forces, on Thursday.

Meanwhile, Putin has just announced a total one-time payment of 10,000 rubles, or $115, in relief for Kursk residents affected by the attack, according to state media.

Russia's military chiefs are lying that Ukraine's attack is 'under control'.

Residents in Russia's besieged Kursk oblast have published a video saying the fighting there is far more intense than Russian military leaders are letting on.

Good riddance to Russia and America.

The Russians are currently committing atrocities against innocent civilians in Ukraine and America nuked two cities of women and children and has yet to apologise.

Republican vice presidential nominee J.D. Vance called Khelif “a grown man pummeling a woman” and referred to the match as “disgusting.” But the most inflammatory rhetoric came, of course, from Harry Potter author J.K. Rowling and Riley Gaines

JK denounced “our new men’s rights movement” and misgendered Khelif as “a male who’s [sic] knows he’s protected by a misogynist sporting establishment enjoying the distress of a woman he’s just punched in the head.”

Riley Gaines:

*"As if the SATANIC display at the opening ceremony wasnt enough, the Olympics glorifies men punching women in the face*

Many right-wing extremists such as Marjorie-Taylor Green, JK Rowling, Ted Cruz, Riley Gaines and Georgia Meloni have rushed to accuse Imran Khelif of being secretly transgender or having intersex traits.

Their only evidence: Khelif was one of two boxers disqualified from the 2023 International Boxing Association (IBA) championship tournament after she failed an unspecified eligibility test midway through the bracket.

Their only source is IBA President Umar Kremlev who told the Russian news agency Tass it was a DNA test that showed Khelif had XY chromosomes.

The nature and results of the test that these extremists rely on has not been made public.
