Spanish TV shows the dead civilian bodies American TV is too delicate for. They are strewn in the streets like trash where the Russians are retreating from around Kyiv. One they lingered on had his hands tied behind his back before he was shot dead.

Cheers,
John

Problem: People are being killed.
Solution: Let's send more to die.


Must be Common Core.

My grandmother was Choctaw.

Russia invaded Ukraine and is slaughtering innocent men, women, and children.

Genocide is a terrible thing. It is also Putin’s publicly stated goal for the Ukraine. Hence, my posts.

Cheers,
John

I guess you all will just have to trust that I am not "gaslighting," but sincere as Death. Smirking? After the attacks on the Twin Towers of September 11, I had recurring nightmares for months, that Muslim terrorists were beheading my sons. The hopeful grimace, however, I have no doubt passes for smugness.

I am quite serious as well, Jennifer. Peace and love- somebody’s got to do it.
