    Maybe that attempted raid by "wagner" mercs in Syria worked better than expected. So DOD decided to ship them to Ukraine now....perhaps to send more russkis home in a box be it "wagner", regular russki army, strelkov/Girkin, etc.
    Maybe there'll be more crying wives/girlfriends.s eems Enough ukranians were killed by the Russians.

    "Within weeks", maybe just in time for Putinka "re-election". ;)).

    I can't believe this is going on and there's not a big discussion in the media in the U.S. about this.

    There also has not really been that much discussion about Syria. As far as the media is concerned it's just a routine overseas operation to fight terrorists and a few mishaps with Russian forces accidentally getting in the way. No one watching the U.S. media coverage would think there was anything other than that going on.

    That's a mortar shell every 5 minutes...

    There are now three battlefronts where Russia and the US are "openly" clashing, Syria, Ukraine and online, covertly there's many others including North Korea.

    You will never know what's going on from the American press, and before long there will be censorship on every news service in this country. Washington is fighting it's wars with propaganda and lies. This was told to the investigative reporter Robert Parry when he asked an agent why they didn't reveal the truth about the shoot down of the airliner in Ukraine.

    I came across this video yesterday. The US warned Russia when it entered the war in Syria against ISIS that they will feel pain, and that every good they do in Syria will be presented by the media in such a way that they will be seen as the aggressor - and it's exactly what the media has been trying to do.

    The lies weren't just against Russia and the Syrian people, but mostly against the American people who didn't know we were supporting terrorists in preference to the Syrian people, especially the Syrian minorities like the Christians who are being protected by Assad.

    Damascus, is their safe haven, and even today not a mention is made about the missiles from Ghouta that are hitting the residential areas in Damascus.

    Hey Zoomy, Gazprom terminated its gas contract yesterday with Ukraine. But that's okay, Washington is sending you arms so you can grab the Russian gas fields. Go to it!



    I know, it's Russia, Russia, Russia, but I'm freezing!

    Anti-Russian pigs are happy because they haven't brains. Yesterday Russians died, tomorrow Americans will die.

    The military's of the Donbas Republics attack the Ukrainian army in response to their shelling of civilian districts. I wouldn't put the number that high though, but I do know that many Ukrainian soldiers have been killed.

    Zoomy, since you're such an expert on Ukraine, how's the latest Maidan going? I hear that Sashkavili is calling for a mass uprising on March 18 to oust Poroshenko? Is that why Washington sent him arms? Is it to restart the war with the Donbas Republics so Poroshenko can save his seat?

    I heard he's letting men out of jail, and hiring mercenaries, because the Ukrainians refuse to be cannon fodder for Poroshenko. The last time he gave them only two weeks training, and most died from friendly fire. I guess if there's no men to till the fields, then it can all be bought up by the oligarchs cheaply.

    About time the promised release was done. I am waiting to see how many weapons and how fast they will be delivered. The Ukes asked for these defensive weapons a long time ago.

    In the meantime the Ukrainian people are suffering from a lack of the barest necessities.

    Thanx to a bowl full of bloated, yet exceptional Amerikinks - Who happily order up more AMMO
    As they even now - have a river of innocent slaughterhouse blood staining their Living Room rugs

    the ghosts of the innocent people of Vietnam, Iraq, Libya, Syria, etc will haunt them
    while they continue to feed their Parasitic,. ravenous, insatiable monster - we know as
    ............................................................. The Military Industrial Complex

    what is it now ? - a Trillion Dollar$ this year ? - WTF is the matter with those people ?

    Tens of thousands of Americans from private military companies were killed in Iraq only. Just Russian do not gloat when someone dies. Anti-Russian pigs are other. All of you and the Western media rejoices the death of any Russian person or any failure of Russia.

    According to Volodimyr those were '' uhxotniki' - "volunteers" just like the Moskailyki " volunteers" in the Donbas.

    Get a grip "tavarishko"--- your tens of thousands of "Americans" from " private companies" of which you mean mercenaries is nothing but Moskailnyk Kremlinko hymno- Russian Kremlin propaganda crap.
    We deal with truth here Russian propaganda.

    Welcome to the Propaganda State. "All the news that's fit to print".

    Anything that might conflict with the false narratives and "necessary illusions" promoted by the Establishment propaganda pundits is not given significant air time and certainly get's no legitimate discussion.

    What happened to "News" - where the anchor sits and details what is going on in the world ?

    The first rule of Journalism school is "Thou shalt not Editorialize" ... yet we have CNN do little but editorialize 24/7 and then call itself "The most trusted source in News".

    Frick and frack - its not even "news" never mind being trusted news. Editorializiing is - by definition - not news.

    Well hey ... we supplied and encouraged the supply of sophisticated weapons to Islamist extremists (such as Al Qaeda and ISIS) in Syria, and we are on the same side as Al Qaeda in Yemen .. why not support Fascist's in Ukraine.

    Perhaps Russia should start providing sophisticated weapons to the Palestinians in Israel or to the Houthie's in Yemen .. sure .. why not start WW3.

    It's worth pointing out that these weapons supplies started under Hillary's tenure as Secretary of State.
    (It's not been officially acknowledged, but everyone pretty much knows)
