As long as Putin keeps going at it, to keep Ukraine away from the corruption, that was morphed from the plandemic to a pseudo war, Vlad is doing what needs to be done. Vladimir Putin is fighting corruption head on, despite having all the mainstream media against him. Some countries like the USA and Canada have traitors as president and only a "fringe minority" have been vocal, although they were vocal enough (thanks to the truckers) to get Big Pharma packing and stop the coronaphobia. Now, they switched to war to keep people in fear and then they encourage people to fund the war through donations to Ukraine. Just don't throw out your money for them to fund chemical weapons.

OUCH!

I use the University's health care services and have no connection to these students.

So, corrupt Russia breaks in to Ukraine in order to keep the corruption away from Ukraine.
That's about as logical as "We're going to castrate you so you can sire progeny."
Got it.

So, corruption cleans up corruption.

Chicago has corruption. Therefore Biden should nuke Chicago.

The Gambino family, and the Columbo family, and the Genovesi family, and the Gottis, all operate out of NYC. So the US Navy should send the battleship Missouri up the Hudson to bombart Manhatten, and the US Army should lay waste to the South Bronx.

Mexico has corruption, and drug lords. So the US should invade Mexico, annex it, and make it our 51st state!

Speaking of Missouri, just came across this,

A small Missouri radio station is airing a Russian radio program full of propaganda amid the invasion of Ukraine

A radio station in Missouri is airing a Russian radio program full of state propaganda.
Peter Schartel says he is exercising free speech as he airs the pro-Russian content amid the invasion of Ukraine.
The radio program, Radio Sputnik, is produced by a US division of the Russian-run media group Rossiya Segodnya.
https://www.businessinsider.com/missour ... nda-2022-3

Quote:

"America is a very different country than it used to be. We used to be a country of freedom, job, opportunity, and equality. Now, we are a country that looks down upon traditional values. We are a country that puts its citizens second to citizens of other countries," the home page of the radio station reads.

Schartel started airing Radio Sputnik in early 2020, and since then, he has been accused by critics of being a traitor for promoting propaganda and disinformation, according to The Associated Press.

That Associated Press article, https://apnews.com/article/russia-ukrai ... 4b29d68669

Quote:

... The Kansas City Star said in an editorial that Schartel is putting his financial needs above ethics by spreading Russian propaganda.

“Much like the National Association of Broadcasters, we advise KCXL to drop all programming that paints Putin in a positive light. The Russian president is no victim; he is for sure no war hero,” The Star wrote.

Schartel acknowledged that he initially accepted the Radio Sputnik contract because he was struggling to keep KCXL afloat. The station operates out of a dilapidated, cluttered building. He said he stopped taking a salary months ago, though he does nearly all the work.

Schartel’s Alpine Broadcasting Corp. is paid $5,000 a month to air Radio Sputnik in two three-hour blocks each day, according to a U.S. Justice Department Foreign Agent Registration Act filing in December 2021.

KCXL’s other programming includes shows that are heavily religious, offer opinions across the political spectrum and promote conspiracy theories. One program, TruNews, has been criticized by the Anti-Defamation League for spreading antisemitic, Islamaphobic and anti-LGBTQ messages.

Schartel said he airs programs that are not commercially viable and don’t depend on advertising, which he contends influences news reporting. He said he is promoting free speech by providing a platform for people who otherwise aren’t heard.

Roy Gutterman, director of the Tully Center for Free Speech at Syracuse University, said all radio station owners in the U.S. have a right to air whatever content they want.

“It this station thinks it’s going to make a mark in Missouri by playing Radio Sputnik, they have the right to do so,” Gutterman said.

The Federal Communications Commission, which regulates licensing of radio and television broadcasts, does not censor content unless it intentionally endangers public safety or is found to be obscene, indecent or profane.

People who spread enemy propaganda are called "Collaborators". Their lies are effective only against those who cannot or will not seek to verify what is said.

I have had installed a sticky thread in the News section entitled "Skeptics Resources" to provide links to reputable sources of reason and truth -- even though conspiracy theorists, enemy collaborators, and other trolloids will openly disagree -- so please avail yourselves of it.

Thank you,
Fnord

Advanced anti-tank weaponry is probably going to make tank warfare obsolete, I would think. The Russian losses in equipment has been staggering.

And troops. Hard to know an accurate number as either side will fudge numbers. But even if it’s in around the middle they’ve lost more than 13,000 troops in a month, including 5 generals.

"In this episode Ward is joined by Iryna Discipio, a Ukrainian citizen and the founder and president of Revived Soldiers Ukraine, for a conversation about how the war is going, the spirit of the Ukrainian people, and what they need to repel the Russian invasion and preserve freedom in their country."
