The lunatic Trumpers have concocted more propaganda. They are now claiming the bodies found in Bucha were planted there by UA forces as a false flag operation to smear Russia's reputation.

How do people get so fucking deluded?

WTF? Where do they think the bodies came from? The UA is stock piling bodies just in case? Sounds like they would deny the concentration camps.

So far news in US seems to be refusing to cover these atrocities- perhaps waiting for independent verification, but lots of supporting proof already including independent press observing the collection of civilian corpses.

On the other hand, several news sources still quoting Russian propaganda calling this a withdrawal to defuse tensions (without attribution or disclaimer).
I saw enough this morning that I want to go out and personally kill Putin with my bare hands, so not sure what you are watching.

Go Baltics!!

Baltic states stop Russian gas imports over Ukraine invasion | Russia-Ukraine war News | Al Jazeera

“Since April 1st, Russian natural gas is no longer flowing to Latvia, Estonia and Lithuania,” he told Latvian radio, adding that the Baltic market was currently being served by gas reserves stored underground in Latvia.

Article doesn't state how much their energy needs were served by Russian gas but looking it up fossil fuels are the minority but still a large percentage for Latvia at 45.86% and Lithuania at 32.8%. Estonia, on the other hand, is heavily reliant on fossil fuel at just over 90%. So good for them, especially for Estonia taking the huge step of cutting off Russia and depending solely on Latvian reserves. And good on Latvia obviously for making it possible.

This is a shift in tone from Israel but ambiguous if it means anything concrete in terms of support for Ukraine.


Per Google he is the current Alternate Prime Minister, which I'm guessing is something like a Vice President. If so, it is great to see Israel finally standing up for the principles upon which is was formed. I strongly suspect Israel currently supports Russia because of some secret backroom deal where Russia will hold up the Iran embargo negotiations (which they have, so far at least). India and China's support is for financial gain IMO.

But the Israel Ministry was extremely quick to point out that this mentioned no sides, and was a personal statement, and “didn’t blame Russia”.

Israel still 100% on the fence, even when choosing between ultimate evil and doing the right thing, when it doesn’t benefit them.

It would seem to me Israel has a few billion reasons to align with the West in this situation…or maybe they can just do without those “reasons” for a year or two.

There's an unconfirmed report that Ukraine hit the Frigate Admiral Essen with one of their homemade Neptune ASM in the Odessa area

Twitter has been gruesome in the last few days
And that’s even without seeing any direct updates from Mariupol or the South - as Russia has complete control of all cellular wireless and internet in the South (plus no power in Mariupol for weeks)

Israel should be as anti-Russian here as anybody what with the ultra-fascist war hawk that Putin has morphed into. He's the modern day Hitler in a sheepskin. If Israel's reason for being in the first place is a haven for the victims of Nazi abominations Israel should be the first to stand up for the oppressed, disenfranchised, brutalized, marginalized, discriminated against. They should go after any Russian oligarch's assets, refuse any dealings with Russia.

It's worth remembering that Israeli special forces hunted down Nazi concentration camp collaborators into their retirement ages. Considering the caliber of Ukrainian special forces, I'd be spending that looting money really quick if I'd had anything to do with Bucha...

You have to ignore the far right Trumpie crowd i.e. Fox News and 99% of the republican party. Sure they will claim the deaths are all staged.... heck, they don't believe the holocaust really happened either. And they are still waiting in Texas, in their lawn chairs, along Dealey Plaza waiting for the Kennedy's to appear.
