Actual evidence of US involvement: zero.
Can you point us to some of these far left condemnations of Putin and Russian atrocities? I mean actual condemnations without reservation. No weasel words or but but but NATO.
You'll see a lot more of this as countries wriggle out of their "promises" unfortunately.
Is that meant to be a gotcha or something
Interesting piece from CNN about the Iranian drones
"The group’s analysts believe the warheads, which measure just under two-feet long, were hastily modified with poorly fitted layers of dozens of small metal fragments that on impact scatter across a large radius. In addition to the fragments, there are also 18 smaller “charges” around the circumference of the warhead that, when melted by the blast, can pierce armor and create a kind of “360-degree” explosive effect.
The accumulation of those elements essentially maximize the warhead’s ability to shred targets such as power stations, distribution grids, transmission lines and large, high-power transformers. They also make repair efforts substantially harder.
“It’s as though they looked at the finished warhead and said, ‘How can we make this even more destructive?’” said Damien Spleeters, one of the investigators who examined the warhead.
As CNN has previously reported, Iranian-made drones being deployed in Ukraine have been found to contain a significant amount of US and Western components, leading the Biden administration to investigate how American-made technology is ending up in the weapons.
Spleeters told CNN that examining the Shahed-131 warhead – the components of which have never been publicized before now – has helped analysts better understand how Iran has been manufacturing its drones.
“There had been a lot of speculation that perhaps these explosives were very crude, cheap and simple,” he added. “But looking at the warhead, it is clear that a lot of thought has been put into making sure that it can inflict as much damage as possible to infrastructure in a large radius.”
Last month, the Institute for the Study of War found that Russian forces had become increasingly reliant on the drones in their campaign against Ukrainian critical infrastructure – so much so that their stockpile of the drones is already running low, just months after Iran began sending them."
No, just asking you a question. Care to answer?
Yeah all Nazis are bad. That's not a controversial to say.
The freshly filled graveyard behind the man
Ukrainian military
Next time you are talking to your mercenary friend ask him if he's met any Wagner ( or other ) mercenaries' in the field, who behave like the Wagnerites do.
Exactly
Are you calling the Ukrainan military fascists
Somehow they all piled the pressure on Germany and the moment Germany said OK everyone goes 'ah well, you see...'
Are you saying there is no fascist paramilitary element in the Ukrainian forces? I mean come on, its not exactly a secret.
I was waiting for someone to drag up that blog post. A blog post that provides zero evidence, however people have started to fact check it and it's falling down at the first hurdle. Let me guess they were stealth ships? Or decoy GPS coordinates?
I'm not saying it's evidence, after all he calls on a confidential source that he cannot reveal obviously. But it's a little more than a blog post. And the US were hardly going to come out and say 'uh, darn, caught, ye we admit it', were they?
The man has history uncovering war crimes and is a Pulitzer Prize winner I believe it says in the article? And he describes in detail what he was told had happened, maybe you should read the article?
Handier when you can blame someone else.
Blame someone else for what? Germany said they'll send tanks. I vehemently disagree with them doing so but they said they will. After heaps of pressure and assurances they're only waiting for Germany from all sides and now all those sides seem to be getting cold feet. Is that not so?
Whataboutery and false equivalence. U.S. attacks pipelines (?) and Russians rape children.
No
It's a nothing burger. The brigade in question was founded by a Ukrainian-Jew, and took steps to shake off those associations over the years. The Russian military has certain members who have neo-Nazi tattoos and carry far right symbols, no one makes anything out of it, except to point out the hypocrisy of their propaganda attempts.
So you admit it then.
Admit that you posted a picture of Ukrainan soldiers,
There is no fascist militias,8 years too late
Don't bother @Dohnjoe, for some reason I can't see your posts. 😁
Indeed. Hersh has been wandering down cuckoo lane for a good few years now. He posited a gigantic conspiracy about the killing of Bin Laden based on two weak sources, one of whom was anonymous. It's pretty bad stuff for someone who once was a good journalist.
Exact same propaganda discussion is happening elsewhere. If stones be thrown at least they should admit to the neo nazi's in Russia flying the Russian empire flag. The bloody soviet union flag is on a par with the swastika.
I see that and raise you this
So people can't be trusted to make up their own minds? They can't be trusted to see through lies and BS and tune out? They have to be protected via censorship. Why do you think Fox News ratings have plummeted over the years? Because anyone with an IQ above room temperature knows it's an echo chamber of absolute horse manure. Only neanderthals watch it. No shortage of them, sadly. Authorities don't ban books, news channels, print publications etc because they are protecting the people from lies (people are capable of making their own decisions) it's because they are afraid that it may cause people to question the narrative. Mein Kampf is a rambling hodge-podge of racism, xenophobia, propaganda and lies. You can walk into Eason's and pick up a copy any day of the week
@CalamariFritti Are you saying there is no fascist paramilitary element in the Ukrainian forces? I mean come on, its not exactly a secret.
Are you saying there is no fascist paramilitary element in the Russian forces? I mean come on, its not exactly a secret.
I'm all for blue and white flags, but Russia might need to work a bit harder to earn one.
Maybe you missed the bit where Putin has threatened Europe over and over with nukes, and conventional attacks. Why should his propaganda machine have access to the small but vocal gullible percentage of people in Europe?
Also, can you please come back to me on how you justify to yourself your support of those who promote the rape, torture, kidnapping and murder of children, women and men? You’ve been avoiding it as if it’s something to be ashamed of.
