    Their treatment of women is abysmal, their treatment of Christians is deplorable, their treatment of gays is disgusting. I have to stop now, I am out of words synonymous with heinous.

    Lets not forget their treatment of Muslims is also deplorable. Like I said, 400k people have died in the Yemen war. The media does not cover it. I don't blame people for not knowing about it for that reason.

    It certainly seems to be true at this point.

    Russian state media has reported that it was “badly damaged” by an explosion “as a result of a fire” and that “all crew have been evacuated,” then claim that the cause of the fire is under investigation.

    "Special-operations unit destroys bridge in Kharkiv region as Russian convoy crosses, claims Ukraine

    From CNN's Olga Voitovych in Lviv

    A Ukraine special-operations unit destroyed a bridge as a Russian convoy crossed it while it headed toward Izium in southeastern Kharkiv region, the Command of the Special Operations Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine claimed in a statement Thursday.

    Ukrainian officials have reported heavy fighting in the vicinity of Izium in recent days, saying that Russian forces are trying to reach the eastern Donbas region from the direction of the town.

    The statement claimed that the Ukrainian unit destroyed the bridge with an explosive charge as a convoy of a Tiger armored vehicle and several trucks crossed it.

    CNN could not independently verify the claim. Ukrainian forces destroyed a key bridge in the Kyiv region to slow the advance of Russian forces in the opening days of the war."

    Well, sorry. I was just trying to help …

    Look, I have to take my wife’s BS about the 10 single Ukrainian women I have living at my house right now. But I don’t have to take yours.

    Saw a funny post elsewhere that you know it must be serious when Russia immediately jumped to their most believable excuse, because catching on fire while at sea and sinking is to the Russian Navy what inexplicably running into things is to the US Navy.
