Russia - threadbanned users in OP

Monitored for what? Public opinion? Trolls aside, public opinion is fairly anti-Russia at this point. Intel? All our sources are second hand, basically.

Tasty spam doesn't just come in a tin...

Millions are about to know the truth. Every little helps.

Anecdotal evidence means crap.

On RT, It's not information, it's propaganda. If you think it's information, you're seriously deluded.

It's almost akin to hate speech it's so disconnected from reality.

Told what to say..... suggested what to say..... or forced what to say? All 3 are different

What did the paywalled article actually say? What did the White House say? The heading states they were briefed..... big difference there.

Some people have 30k post of never talking about the issue and just taunting other posters who talk about the issue

"Some people have 30k post of never talking about the issue and just taunting other posters who talk about the issue"

Im not sure how they get away with it!

Da fuq? Whats that? The twitter account of a oneman wing of the Russian ministry of fcuking propaganda?

Not only can you/they supposedly personally identity Ukrainian military units from remote aerial footage, but also you/they are surprised that

Ukrainian Armed Forces are hiding among civilian infrastructure in Mariupol

No **** sherlock. The Ukrainian armed forces are defending the city of Mariupol from the invading Russian Army and you reckon it's surprising that they have to fight for their city and country "among civilian infrastructure"?

What fcuking planet are you living on?

Ukraine's General Staff said that at least six Russian Tu-95MS strategic bombers launched at least ten cruise missiles (presumably Kh-101) that struck Lutsk, Dnipro, and Ivano-Frankivsk.

Well considering Russia launched 8 cruise missiles at an Ukrainian airport and none actually struck the runway (the most important target)

We've seen the nose cone footage from cruise missiles and smart bombs from the US war in Iraq etc... pretty much through the window of a target.

It seems the likes of the US and NATO have learned and advanced with any setbacks, Russia seem to be stuck in the soviet era.

I don't think anyone on here or around the world expected Ukraine and Kyiv to be still holding strong 2 week into this war.

Advanced weapons play a part, but the lackluster Russian army and absent airforce play just a significant role.

No you've made it more than abundantly clear all the same. You say

The one positive thing about the Facebook story is it seems no matter what side you are on...

Ah I see "Sides"! Please let me quote another poster here who has perhaps expressed it more succinctly and politely than I ever could

We don't need to see "both sides", and yes we are pro-Ukrainian.... for the simple reason that they are the ones who have been invaded. They are the ones where a million women, children and elderly men have been displaced and had their lives ruined. And they are the ones whose country is being shelled into oblivion and countless sons and husbands will never see their families again. Now what part of that is difficult for you to understand?

To add: The Ukrainian armed forces are defending their country from an illegal invasion of their country by the Russian Army and you somehow reckon it's surprising that they have to defend and fight for their cities and towns or god forbid occasionally use hit and run attacks against a vastly more numerous enemy who have made an unprovoked attack on Ukraine and the Ukranian people? As you said you've made yourself abundantly clear already.

Did all three of the Lads sign off and sign on at the same time.

That's odd.
