During a general audience at the Vatican, Pope Francis kissed the flag that was brought to him from Bucha, and he also called again to stop the ongoing horror in Ukraine

Protests against the country's leadership and military assistance to Ukraine took place in Turin, Italy.

Wow, the brought the biggest heretic to bear down on the russkies.

How can Putin recover from this mortal wound?
 
The rest of the photo needs to be shown of the room Papa Francis is in:

Warhammer 40k vibes...

There are jokes about "evil throne rooms" but I thought it would be funny to show here (you can see the edge of the sculpture behind him in your photo but the whole thing might be enlightening).
I think they took this from the Pride of the Emperor after the concert. Sheeesh!

Is that a monument to Slanesh?

God damn it! Turns out this is Baghdad during America's 'precision bombing'.

Let's remember however bad you think Putler is the burgers are millions of times worse, pure fucking evil.

Americans lecturing the world on war crimes is like a pedophile giving parenting advice.
If a wacko shizoid would tell you that the sky is blue, would you get up to look out the window and check?
No shit America has done fucked up shit, doesn't justify Russia doing the exact same shit, neither does it demean if either helps their allies against said shit.
Zhirik is kill. Hopefully he was lucid to see 22.02.2022.

Well, at 5:35, he said that Russia and the whole world would recognize the Taliban government with a delay of 15 years, and he said this in 2014! About Ukraine, he said that it should be integrated into Russia but that the western part should be left alone.


It seems to me that Zhirinovsky is a successful Russian Alex Jones, who, despite his strangeness, is quite competent in geopolitics.


He could tell the truth because it was mixed with jokes.
The clown world has outlived a masterful jester
 
Just further proof that fighting on the eastern steppes is awful

You mean like this?

oh, wait, here's a picture of one.... I'm trying to calculate how many of these they would need and how fast they would have to be stuffing hapless folks in there to cover up the traces of "tens of thousands" of war crimed.

I thought that the Russians used industrial shredders to deal with corpses. At least that was what some schitzo said waaaay back in the thread. Oh well.
Just fuck already

By the way, the video of the murdered cyclist may be real

Just take a look at this

Formidable bicycle troops of the Armed Forces of Ukraine go on the offensive
This is what massive strikes on oil fields and fuel depots lead to
 
So, considering history and all; what are the chances Putin has a Saddam or Gaddafi pulled on him?
a Saddam is next to impossible. for a Gaddafi the way I could see that is if Russia loses this so catastrophically that no amount of spin and propaganda at their home would surmount the public outcry that the country's asshole got rekt by fucking hohols of all people...and given Putin probably at least has this inkling of a possiblity in his mind, frankly I'm somewhat scared that if it ever comes to the point when Ukraine is unironically taking back Sevastopol, tactical nukes would fly sooner than let that happen. it's also why I'm still rooting for my poll voting of 'Stalemate' where both sides can lie to themselves that they didn't 'really' lose, however that looks like.
 
The cringe is funny but gets dull after 3+ pages.

@Borscht what's the situation in Russia like? Don't hear much from 15,000km away. Is the media war like China or do you guys have things other than the state/party line?

I imagine the "war" is not so popular in Russia but that people like Putin flexing muscles on the international stage.
At this point most people have realized that it's either back down and have your economy destroyed with nothing to show for it or push forward and have your economy destroyed while achieving at least some of the stated goals, whatever they may be. Since the sacrifice is already made, might as well get something out of it in addition to the humiliation.

The Ukrainean treatment of prisoners and public media outbursts like that journalist who went on air saying Russian children must be butchered before they can grow up makes defending pro-Ukrainean position next to impossible: "see, they ARE nazis, were nazis all along and attacking them was the right thing to do in retrospect".

The mood largely hit the "acceptance" phase of shock and the social network comments either talk the upcoming gardening season or produce cringy copium. The dissent is still there, but it gets downvoted. It is assumed that the ones dissenting are IT workers, bloggers, instagram thots and other "parasites" who do not do "real work" and "should go work in a factory", so the class animosity is stil alive and well. Some are wondering how and why Russia is not fighting back on the media front, allowing itself to be painted as 143 million Hitlers: the reply to these is either "the media war was lost in 2014" or "who cares, they made up their mind, there is no changing it" with an occasional "we don't need them anyway".

If your question was about the official government take, it is schizophrenic. Medvedev says "crush them all", Putin says "we will finish what we started", Peskov says "a peace treaty would be awesome" and random Duma lawmakers keep regularly squeaking "no to war".
