kokovi Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 (edited) Lawrow told the UN today that nuclear war must not be waged. As it seems that most Russian officials lied in the last months, we should all enjoy the last days of western and Russian civilization as we know it. So stop fighting here and go enjoy some time with your family and friends! Edited March 1, 2022 by kokovi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, you can probably credit it to nations in the region that already are. Yeah I often think they are in EU already, because they are in NATO too.

Simon Tan Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 Partizans were shot. Or worse. Of course you didn't have to be a partizan to be liquidated with the Germans and their little able helpers. The Russians just aren't as brutal as the more evolved Europeans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone heard anything? I only give it credence because long distance photos suggest something big hit there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmgill Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 1 hour ago, Roman Alymov said: I do not know. Actually this question "Why the hell Russian segment of Internet is full of pro-Ukrainian propaganda&@ was asked by many people here in Russia. Maybe because it's not very popular? Considering the Eastern part of Ukraine that your Pro-Soviet(1) forces consider Russian Brothers and Sisters, it's quite odd that you're killing as many of them as you are in your ware of aggression. 1. If Ukrainian forces are Pro-Ukrainian or Pro-Nazi, then your side is Pro-Soviet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lucklucky Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 45 minutes ago, Perun said: Thoes that mean that nazis liberated Poland Is that such a difficult concept that Poland was occupied by both. first the Nazis then the Russian Communists...? Russians have to take a very long look at soul of their country. No one trusts Russia except in relation to violence. Russia after Soviet Union was unable to transform into a superpower South Korea, Japan etc. bringing prosperity to the world. If the Russian emphasis was in technological commerce , it would have much stronger military and would be much safer and would be a giant attraction for the countries around it.

X-Files Posted March 1, 2022 Author Share Posted March 1, 2022 3 hours ago, Roman Alymov said: No idea how accurate is this information (it is not from offical sources) Our artillery today with an accurate blow covered the headquarters of the operational-tactical group "Vostok" of the operation of the united forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. This headquarters controlled the enemy group defending from Donetsk to Mariupol. Most of the officers of the staff of the OTG "Vostok" were killed or wounded. According to unconfirmed information, the commander of the Vostok group, General of the AFU Sodol, was killed. Only a timely escape from the command post could save him. He simply had no other options to survive. The management of the brigades of the OTG "Vostok" of the Ukr Army in Donbass is currently lost. The enemy is disorganized. That's part of the UA 36th Marine Brigade, right? Same guys who allegedly had a deserter problem back in March 2021? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simon, there's a difference between throwing a molotov cocktail at police who are trying to stop looting and rioting and throwing a molotov at an invading force that is themselves likely to loot.

RETAC21 Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 1 hour ago, futon said: Sounds like a stupid international law. Maybe it made sense in some cases. I can't find myself finding such fault agaisnt civilian molotov slingers in their home country. Don't you think it's bizarre? Only if you miss the context of the Geneva convention. These were agreed because before the standard was the razing of villages and the summary execution of locals who dared to even speak the occupier. This is but one example: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Francs-tireurs "The Germans executed captured francs-tireurs as irregular, armed non-combatants, essentially what also came to be called guerrillas or insurgents. ... The Germans reacted to francs-tireurs ambushes with harsh reprisals against the nearest village or town, where they killed civilians. Whole regiments or divisions often took part in "pacifying actions" in areas with significant franc-tireur activity; this created a lasting enmity and hatred between the occupying German soldiers and French civilians."
