The job of observers is to look at facts. Not to unseen them even if it’s on the good side.

🧐

Why aren’t you reporting on this fact? One side is good and one side is bad according to leftists. Where is the U.S.’s & media’s Condemnation of Ukraine along with Russia?

Shocker.

I got blocked by a page Because I saw a drone dropping a bomb on stretcher bearers and killing them. I said it was a break of the Geneva Convention. But honestly war is hell and no one is perfect. I just don’t like it when one side is portrayed as pure as the driven snow!!!

Well that's a shame I had higher hopes for the most corrupt country in Europe which utilizes Nazi battalions.

China sets on the committee

The UN is fair and unbiased. But we have to cut Ukraine some slack, it will be almost impossible for them to gain an advantage over R*ssia without playing by their own despicable rules. Their invasion of a sovereign nation is the ultimate human rights violation.

It’s just spiraling out of control, and there’s not a darned thing that any one of us can do about it, really. Try to unite US …

Maybe conscripting a man with no hands and calling him fit for war wasn't a good idea.
