    It's called logic. I'm sure to a propaganda peddler, it must seem like magic or something, but it's just logic.

    You say Hamas is "fighting for their lives". Strange faction for an American to sympathize with. You were probably the only American cheering the Al Qaeda terrorists on 9-11. Congratulations. You are unique.

    Fascinating development.

    Boomers getting angry over younger generation's resistance to the US getting involved in unnecessary international conflicts...

    ...there's a word that I can't quite recall at the moment which would seem to apply....

    I was horrified and angry about 9/11.

    But I came to regard the tragedy as unsurprising blowback in light of our State Department’s longstanding terrorism abroad.

    OBL killed 3,000 Americans bc "infidels" (us/the US) were too close to the Mecca for his liking. How the hell to you put any of that on us? Dude's @#$%%#!% up religious views weren't introduced by us. He was contaminated with his @#$@%^'d up radioactive religious views b4 we ever crossed paths with him.

    When you agree to be a soldier (and remember, none of these people were drafted--they volunteered), you agree to do what you're told when you're told to do it. These soldiers were not told to bad-mouth their leadership or to question their orders on a public forum. They do not get to vote on which conflicts they will or will not participate in. To me, the only time it would be acceptable to "go public" is if they are told to do something unethical or violate the Geneva Convention rules (commit war crimes). Anything else should be handled in-house. If they wanted a regular job, they should have taken a regular job.

    The Ukraine military has been so savaged that they’ve been wresting men (and women) off the streets to feed the meat grinder.

    Been saying this for months, but if Zelenskyy had Ukraine’s best interests at heart, he would cut a deal now as opposed to waiting for Trump to force him to cut a deal.

    They probably thought they were signing up to dress in drag and parade on the catwalk in China Joe's woke military. :D:p:D

    Russia has most of its troops hopped up on drugs to go into battle, and the soldiers use drugs so often that if and when they return to Russia, they buy more drugs. Russia is slowly being turned into a nation of drug addicts (amphetamine and opioids in particular). Probably not good for the economy. It has also caused Russian gangsters running the illegal drug business to make changes. Belarus is now being used to smuggle drugs from Russia to Europe (instead of Ukraine), and also to smuggle microchips and luxury goods into Russia. As non-synthetic drugs become too expensive for Russians, they turn to synthetic drugs.

    Russia's synthetic drug use is skyrocketing as soldiers return from Ukraine with addictions and trafficking supply routes dwindle

    North Korean artillery shells are doing some real damage in Ukraine . . . to Russian troops and artillery pieces. The low quality shells are damaging the artillery they are fired from, and occasionally Russian troops get injured in the process. The Round One has delivered a million artillery shells to Shorty.

    General Staff: Russia using low-quality, defective North Korean shells

    Russian troops in Kupyansk have developed a new problem: rat-bite fever. It is from exposure to dust from rat excrement, and results in high temperature, low (blood) pressure, rashes, migraines, and bleeding from the eyes. Russian commanders accuse the victims of trying to get out of combat. Quite an effective organization they have there.

    In other news, Russia has a new source of income: fining Google. Russia demanded that Google pay a $40 million fine for not censoring content enough.

    Also, it is now Ukraine's turn to build up defenses. They are installing dragon's teeth anti-tank defenses on the northern border.

    Ukraine pulling out all the stops. Lowering the requirements for anyone who’s willing to shoot at a Russian …

    Victorvicktop's own description of himself: "I am a independent Russian internet influencer." Says it all regarding his credibility.
