No, just the video he included showing the bombing of citizens on the bench. The article above it is from Reuters Imagine if a Russian guided missiles took out citizens on a beach in the US. That’s what the US just did to Russia. Biden is playing a dangerous game with Putin. One that could pull us into a world war.

For your flaccid analogy to work one has to believe that Crimea = Russia, despite Russia having agreed Crimea belonged to Ukraine in order to induce Ukraine to surrender its nuclear arsenal. But since you've already indicated a willingness to give Putin whatever he wants whenever Putin mentions he has the bomb, I guess it works for you. Hitler and Putin love guys like you.

It didn't it matters who you or anyone thinks owns the beach... The fact is Russian citizens were killed, including at least two Russian children, by US missiles that Russia claims that were programmed and guided by the US military. Now that Russia and North Korea have a new defense agreement, North Korea may enter this war or at least supply Russia with weapons. Russia is already claiming that there will be consequences for the US given their involvement:

“The involvement of the United States, the direct involvement, as a result of which Russian civilians are killed, cannot be without consequences,” Peskov told reporters on Monday.

“Time will tell what these will be,” he said.

“Just ask my colleagues in Europe and above all in Washington, ask the press secretaries there why their government is killing Russian children,” he said.

The foreign ministry said it had summoned US envoy Lynne Tracy.

It later issued a statement saying that Washington “bears equal responsibility with the Kyiv regime for this atrocity” and the strike would “not go unpunished”.

Maybe Russia secret agents will microwave Grandpa Joe's brain, or what is left of his brain:

White House staff, CIA officers, FBI agents, and military officers and their families are among those who believe they were wounded by a secret weapon firing a high-energy beam of microwaves or ultrasound

You are right. Civilians should never be deliberately targeted. Even though the Russians have been doing this every day of the war with drones and cruise missiles. I am confident that this is being addressed.

Maybe calm down about the saber rattling from Russia.

The "antiwar" movement sure loves Russian warmongering.

Uncle Ted's posts on this topic are indistinguishable from russian, pro-putin accounts on X. Bless his heart.

Exactly. It's not anti war. Ted's posts are just pro-Russia.

North Korea has been giving Russia weapons for a minute now. Ted, you are the most pro-communist poster we have here! That is what blind Putin apologetics leads to.

[Donuthole]

The "antiwar" movement sure loves Russian warmongering.

Not only that, a Twitter search for WWIII reveals countless tweets from right-wingers claiming they are scared of WW3 while very obviously hoping it happens ASAP so they can blame Biden and hopefully get Trump elected.

We're probably all a little desensitized about the war now but this is pretty disgusting.

Yep. It could be that Russia is using unreliable missiles within populated areas, but I wouldn't be surprised to find out this was deliberate.

[PaloAltoCougar]

Putin said he was going to punish Ukraine for its attack on a large munitions depot on Russian soil, then does so by attacking nonmilitary targets, killing civilians, and destroying a children's hospital. The Russian approach to war and disregard for human life, including its own soldiers, have been appalling since at least June 1940. Putin is the same as Stalin, with lousier hair.

This doesn't seem good. I don't follow Indian politics closely, but they seem to do a great job at playing Russia, China, and the US off each other.

For today's time using unreliable missiles and sending them into populated areas is really not any less barbaric.

I know a few Indian-American folks and when politics come up, I am always shocked how sympathetic they are to Putin/Russia.
