Another thing about this Canadian volunteer is that he shares odd things online, like this,

https://twitter.com/i/web/status/1523334772990353409



it doesn't seem that the National Guard and the Armed Forces have a good relationship. I have seen similar comments elsewhere, and this volunteer at times post things on Twitter which should only be disseminated amongst the MoD and intelligence. Russians may be blocked to use Twitter, but they can still access Twitter, well, I guess the message is more important…

Anyhow, some criticism I have.

The account is quite obviously a bull shitter.

Pity more NATO types didn't take note of what these wise-heads were saying. Unless of course the objective all along was to provoke a war, with Ukraine used as a battering ram against Russia.

Crazy guy stands outside McDonalds, screaming "I will shoot anyone who walks into this restaurant!"

People ignore the crazy guy and walk in anyway.

Crazy guy shoots them.

Putin lovers: They did this to themselves. It's their own fault for wanting to eat a bigmac. Crazy guy had every right to shoot them. They deserved to die because they didn't listen.

It is an extremely poor analogy when you know a bit of history and geography.

I can tell you this much, destroying the bridge will make waves, but it will ultimately leave Crimea in desolation.

War is war.

Just to add, the bridge serves, conditionally, as a military supply route, or otherwise it enables the Russians with logistics into Southern Ukraine. It is a valid target.

Honestly at this point I think the Crimeans will welcome being severed from their oppressor. Things have made a turn for the worse since their annexation.

I haven't read the entire thread, but what is our stance here on Ukrainian military personnel using schools and hospitals as firing positions among civilians?

Still waiting for proof that Ukranian soldiers are firing on Russians from amongst civillians thereby putting their own people at risk? The human shield narrative is the sort of thing sh*tty commanders dredge up to excuse: 1) their incompetence or : 2) their callous disregard for civillian casualties.
