Russo-Ukrainian War - 2022 Edition - Part 4

[The Trutherizer]

5 months, 1 week and 2 days into Russia's illegal invasion of Ukraine (at least if you ignore 2014 Crimea and parts of the Donbas) and...

Shouldn't global trade already be in Rube-els? What happened to all those breathless predictions?

She was quite the proponent of Novorossiya. It would be difficult to ignore the parallels between Dugin's ideology and Putin's actions in Ukraine.

Angry, sad, depressed - all those emotions rolled into one.

All this horror due to the ambitions of Putin and his supporters.

And enabled by various actors in the West.

Let's look at the alleged hack that is Aaron Mate. Also shows what sort of reporting GreyZone do.

Posted here because some Russian propagandists use this guy and the Greyzone to promote Russophilia.

If I could be bothered I'd go find the "too bad, so sad" meme for this neo-Nazi woman.

They call Mark mr Bond, mr Blyat Bond. 00Z.

Looks quite flabby like a blow up doll one sees in movies. The S300 system I mean.

If she was hit by partisans who wanted to take out her father, then what does that say about the state of security in the RF?

Milosevic thought he was untouchable too.

Looks legit, guess the Kremlin isn't responsible for this one. They are going to use it, that's for sure.

A real expert and not a hack, comments on war crimes in Ukraine.

Ukraine is a Turning Point for International Justice

The issue of war crimes in Ukraine is of the gravest importance. Not only is this the biggest conflict in Europe since WWII, with extraordinary suffering broadcast daily on our television screens for the past six months. But the conflict will also have long-reaching implications depending on...

Finally, reparations may be possible and buildings rebuilt, but nothing can bring back the dead. Sadly, the real value of justice is not just closure but the future. After such tragedy, accountably for the leadership of the current war is our best chance of avoiding the next one.

No doubt this will be called a crime against humanity! Racism! Russian propagandists will get more attacks of the vapours.

Some good points made about that infamous AI report.

Ukraine: How Amnesty Got it Wrong

Amid the emotional response to Amnesty International's (AI) statement that Ukrainian military tactics were endangering civilians, it is crucial to consider international law in a measured way. This is the actual law referred to by the authors of the report as well as by its opponents, and which...

Posing for celebratory selfies at Azovstal certainly didn't earn her any points. It is alleged by Ilya Ponomarev that she celebrated the prisoner's deaths at Olenivka prison massacre but I can't find any other sources on that.

Russian Diplomat Sees No Negotiated End to War (10:32 p.m.)​

Russia doesn’t see a diplomatic solution to the war in Ukraine and expects a long battle, a senior Russian diplomat said.
https://www.bloomberg.com/news/arti...est-daughter-of-putin-ally-killed-by-car-bomb
Gennady Gatilov, Russia’s permanent representative to the UN in Geneva told the Financial Times that he didn’t see any possibility for diplomatic contacts between the two countries and warned the longer the war goes on the more difficult it will be to find a diplomatic solution.
https://www.bloomberg.com/news/arti...est-daughter-of-putin-ally-killed-by-car-bomb
A “politicized” UN has been ineffective as a mediator, he said.

So there it is ...... Russia doesnt see any possibility for diplomatic contacts between the two countries ...........
