Forty-eight hours after Russian armored forces crossed the border into Ukraine and were supposed to be rolling into Kyiv, the Russian state newswire RIA Novosti briefly published an article prematurely proclaiming the capture of Ukraine’s capital. The column, written by Pyotr Akopov - who is commonly thought to “mirror” Putin’s thoughts - announced “Ukraine has returned to Russia.” Which he insisted did not mean that “its statehood will be liquidated.”
It’s like painfully pulling off layers of skin. You know, the truth and clear intent being discovered. How does one mitigate this in one’s inherent sense of civility towards other human beings? Difficult. And to add on to that, the cheers of Americans and worse, legislators, for, as an example, Orban’s election malfeasance and intent to indoctrinate children and religion.
I had what, later, seemed as a normal discussion about the kind of death of Putin that can be carried out. Just the other day. Where I assigned that task to operatives, I swear I could strangle him with my bare hands.
It is true that there is a small ultra-right minority in Ukraine, just as there is in most nations, including the US. The Azov Bn. in particular has a history of Nazi influence, but hasn't the Ukr gov't diluted that influence with sane people? Mr. Zelenskyy is, himself, a Jew. Are we to believe that a fascist state is led by a Jew? This denazification program is an escalation which will eventually require direct UN or NATO involvement, and could easily devolve into WWIII.
I have been reading the English language websites of the Kyiv Independent and the Ukraine Truth papers. I highly recommend the Kyiv Independent editorial linked here:

The Ukraine Truth website has a running total of "approximate losses of the enemy"
