Ho long has it been since US unlawful invasion. Bagdad was flattened, the rest of the country. But it was all alright. No noise, no vitriol about the destruction of a perfectly good country and ancient artifacts. Bagdad existed in 9th century and survived until it was flattened by US bombs.

Zelinsky never ask own people if they want to enjoy EU or NATO that was his own Idea and his corrupted sick government which use inocent Ukrainians people to fight a war for western sick democracy which is Anti Family, anti Christianity, pro abortion, pro LGBT the demonic force to destroy the civilization.

[@astilealavatica1404]

I sadly agree, all of us are lied to by our leaders. We the people of Earth need to stop fighting ourselves and focus on the few causing our suffering... Mitch McConnell is Emperor Palpatine Some of you will die, but that's a sacrifice I'm willing to make! - Lord Trump @Justin Y. Trump is evil. He ignored this virus until he couldn't ignore it...the steps taken have been deliberately slow to contain this virus, as the government has made huge financial gains in allowing particularly older, retired people to die...no more pay outs each month...voting, if still valid in this country...is our only peaceful, legal recourse...voting 3rd party is the ONLY WAY to get real humans in power, rather than dynasty families and career politicians. When we realize the 2 parties we are divided over LOVE the division among us...then and only then may America be great again... @Justin Y. Lack of knowledge of the deep state? I just accused our government of mass murder...I understand deep state...fact that you refuse to listen, only attack, says too much about you...clearly you haven't known hardship. Clearly none of this has impacted you negatively...you are part of the problem, offering zero solutions. @Justin Y. Calling me stupid really helps your case...Trump has very limited brain power, as evidenced by his rambling, generally repetitive, toddler talks...although most of us are sorely undereducated, Trump really amazes me every time i listen to his banter. Trump did not close the borders in time, many flights to the USA brought sick folk here. Action wasn't taken until very late February, and by then 15 confirmed cases were more than enough to basically allow what amounts to airborn, quickly lethal AIDS《why this? (Because this virus mutates too fast to create an effective vaccine, which may never get made), upon the world. This is dangerous because common behaviors of common folk, such as shoulder to shoulder events, shopping and sardine packed working conditions, helped this virus along...even as people died in China daily...America went forward 2 full months wothout any concerns...then...rather than force the hands of state officials, and put the population through a 2 month quarantine, we've been seeing states react, rather than prepare...and all at the natural stages this virus thrives on...complacency among enough of us to allow the spread to continue. You refusing to see this logic isn't a blight on my mental capacity, just proves you are as simple as our Lord Trump...and likely among those very few, who like many elites, don't even understand the plight of the masses, whom I speak for, in this contrived crisis...Trump is calm about the virus because he exists outside the bounds of common folk...Trump and other powerful people would never have to take the risk of infection seriously as they are all well protected by expendable servants or can at the least afford to continue living lavishly and distanced from peons such as myself. 9/11 was an inside job and this proves what I've feared since then...that the government can perform mass murder and the people will always just accept it, hire the next sociopath in line, whichever of the 2 evil divisionary parties they aspire to dwell in... Our educational system is archaic. We could be educating everyone from home...there are no valid excuses for our current broken schooling, and no teachers need lose jobs...as the internet is an amazing communication device... Taxes are broken. Your dollar earned gets hit so many times...and we all just accept that blindly. Medicine is broken. My grandmother died because her selfish daughter needed cable tv more than grandma needed diabetes medicine...and millions suffer from the inability to afford insulin, despite that drug initially starting out as a gift to humanity from a generous genius, privatized by evil and greed, priced beyond reality for most. Our 2 party system is designed to keep us bickering...division keeps us docile enough to accept our own government conspiring to murder us, with our acceptance. 3rd party candidates are generally real humans...that care about other humans, even, gasp, total strangers and foreigners... We are all on the same damn spaceship...Earth. I judge character...not race, not whatever religion folks are born into. I am old...I am tired of seeing disaster after disaster get slow attention from government, as poor people die in thousands due to delayed or nonexistent help. It's about time the many take control, with votes, to dethrone the sociopaths that control us, play games with our very lives... When there are only voluntary homeless, when the janitor is paid living wage, when a high school graduate can earn enough in food service, or retail, to support a modest home and essentials, while creating a nest egg...when veterans are given the same care as Congress, Senate and other positions of highest power, rather than left to suffer and die, when the lowest paying jobs are enough to survive on, then and only then, can America boast of being great... As it stands...I feel most of us are born into lies we have no control over...It's well orchestrated, as my points are made clear in every satirical broadcast about the plight of the expendable masses, world wide... Do I want peace, equity and kumbaya? Yeah...I do...are there sociopaths in power oppressing the common folk...yeah...there are...have good Democrats and Republicans existed? Yes...they get blocked by evil at every turn, often resigning due to unbeatable corruption. Do I pity the very people I label simple? You bet I do...I want this planet to be a better place for most...not some...for all...if ever possible... This covid virus isn't done. It mutates too fast to pin it down with a vaccine...and we haven't seen the end of it because we, as a planet, would have to agree on a few ground rules to consider being a functional society. That's my 2 cents...some of it...take it or leave it. Most of us just exist and watch, lazily, rather than get directly involved in change. @soaringvulture We don't seem to take note...we, the expendable masses, are being told to push through life ignoring this virus...it took ONE infection to start a Planet Wide Pandemic...and because we didn't quarantine from January 1st to February, we get to watch innocent and otherwise lives lost, daily...who are "we", in "we're in it together"? Certainly not the elite...they step on us to avoid harm...I'm furious with humanity as a whole...I'm furious we accept all this death and Trump's toddler talks...like a Ted talk without useful insight... Those of us suffering are many...while the privileged watch the show They created...when...when will the common folk unite against tyranny, through the only peaceful means we have...vote out career politicians and dynasty families in favor of fellow human beings, with consciousness and compassion for the lowest among us. We won't stop the cycle of abuse by trading Democrats and Republicans, two sides of the same evil, corrupt coin. Vote 3rd party...vote for real people, with flaws, that understand what struggle is...that have put time behind any of these so called essential, yet minimum wage jobs... This economy is screwed...always has been. The vast majority of work available is menial labor...food service, retail, janitors, grocers...a great many take their wages in government...which is far too big, complex and unsustainable... Until any job can offer a modest secure household, until the only homeless are those who volunteer to live "free"...until the pill giants are mandated to make life saving medicine reasonably priced...we are a selfish, horrid nation, divided by the very people that oppress us, yet too busy fighting amongst ourselves to take any useful action towards a better tomorrow for the MANY, not the FEW......

Thank you Sean for speaking out on this genocide.We must act now! Stop this genocide!

[@Tat-sc6um]

Ukraine launched a military operation back in 2014, when it sent its army against its own citizens in the Donbass and Luhansk region, and has not stopped shelling since 2014. In 2014-2021, about 15,000 people died in Donetsk and Luhansk, including about 7,000 civilians and about 200 children. And this is in the center of Europe! But Europe turned a blind eye to this and controlled access to information. What is this, if not genocide? Did these people deserve such a fate? And there would be even more such victims. This information is recorded in the official OSCE reports on the situation in Ukraine-Donbass for 2014-2022. Take a look at the Minsk Agreements, according to which the Ukrainian government pledged to stop military operations in the LDPR, but has not yet done so. Russia is conducting a special operation to denazify the Ukrainian army in response to a call for help from Donetsk and Lugansk. The Ukrainian army is hiding in the city on purpose (the fascists also did this before), firing from residential areas, endangering their own civilians. The army of Donetsk and Lugansk always tries to protect the civilian population as much as possible, being outside the settlements. There are enough videos on the Internet to confirm this. There are also many revelations of fake news from Ukraine. While Zelensky is asking the whole world for weapons and wants to continue military operations, the residents of Russia are collecting and sending humanitarian aid to Ukraine, accepting refugees from Ukraine. Yes, humanitarian corridors are open in Russia. And many Ukrainians seek to go there, away from their own Ukrainian army, which hides behind the backs of its own residents and does not want to let them out towards Russia. It is high time for Zelensky to think about his citizens and move from military actions to negotiations and fulfillment of his promises. Be objective, draw your own conclusions, and not imposed on you. Crimea first separated from Ukraine because it did not want to be in a state where the constitution is violated. In 2014, a coup d'etat took place in Ukraine. And already being free, having voted in a referendum, he decided to join Russia. Russia did not refuse them.

Totally agree! President Zelensky is certainly proving to be the chosen hero of the people he leads and those in Russia who are anti invasion. To me, a chosen leader is the only real leader. The people under his care are trusting his direction to save their physical lives in these terrible terrible days. That his comprehension of that and what he gives back to his country in patriotic leadership should be a warm light in the hearts of everyone who wants democracy. I hope he can save more than *u*** murders (hopefully no more). Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦 The world looks forward to your current and future victories.

[@DustinRodriguez1_0]

I can't help but notice that Zelenskyy did not come out to the Ukrainian people and plead "please, we need to be united in the face of this threat, we need to put aside our differences and defend our home." He didn't do that. He came out and he explained the facts of what the threat was. And he trusted his people to be adults and to do what is necessary. He did not survey and analyze and target dissenters and try to convince them to side with Ukraine. He presented the facts of 'if we do not resist, we will be taken over and occupied by the forces of a dictator'. He knew that if the people did not rise up, join together, and fight, that they would be steamrolled over. And he accepted, it seems, the possibility that if the Ukrainian people did nothing, if they took the easy, common sense, simple route of passivity and capitulation, his nation would fall. That is democracy. It doesn't guarantee people the best result. It guarantees them the result they deserve, and the result they earn. If they are not worthy of freedom and instead devolve into tribalism for no other reason than to not see those with whom they disagree succeed, if they do not look to themselves as the problem when things go poorly and seek to abandon their old views in the face of new challenges, then democracy will make certain that they fall. This is not a problem for the people of Ukraine. President Zelenskyy and the people of Ukraine inspire me and amaze me. Glory to Ukraine, beacon for democracy in a time when many in the US are too concerned with their political party being shut out of positions of power and are willing to destroy anything to avoid negotiation, compromise, and serving as a minority party for awhile.

This is done even when the evidence of wrongdoing is staring them in the face. The US also imposed sanctions on the International Criminal Court (ICC), which started an investigation into US war atrocities in Afghanistan.

[@joebartles3986]

I have soooooo much respect for the Ukrainian people. My thoughts and prayers go out to them.

[@lzrd8460]

Yes, thoughts & prayers are certainly needed but so are donations to the people. Find a reputable charity that is helping Ukrainians and donate what you can, if you can. They need everything - food, medications, clothing, blankets, Pampers for the babies and even donations to help their pets. We as a great democracy must help a country that wants to be independent and democratic. That’s who we’re are. God bless all.🙏
