Let’s debunk the biggest fake widely used by kremlin to justify the russian invasion in Ukraine. You hear it from russian media, you read it in the commentaries left by russian bots, but what do the official numbers say? Let’s check out the report of the OHCHR that russians themselves are often referring to.

18 minute video. Posted for reference and research to counter the Russian narrative and propoganda that "Ukraine shelled Donbas for eight years" that completely ignores Russian atrocities during this time.
Comments and questions are welcome. Dirsuptors and trolls are expected.
Your first sentence negates any reasonable discussion.
I don’t care if they did or not.
The Ukraine’s problems are not America’s problem.
Ping. This might interest you.
Oddly enough, I haven’t seen posts on us going to Burma, Nigeria, the Central African Republic, the tri border area in South America, etc.
I guess “atrocities” only matter in a moral sense based upon some GPS based criteria.
Libya is still in a civil war from our bombing in 2011.
Russia want the Ukraine back into the revived Russian Empire.
Let the Euros and the Russians slug it out.
Well that explains why your views on Ukraine are so totally divorced from reality, you believe Bellingcat, an absolute legend for cranking out misinformation and BS.
Wikipedia loves him tho
I’ve been saying it’s not our problem since day 1.
It’s Europe’s problem. They need to stop depending on our tax money to save them from themselves.
Had Russia only attacked the eastern provinces no one would’ve cared.
“… 18 minute video. Posted for reference and research to counter the Russian narrative and propoganda…”

Finally! At long last. I’ve grown weary of seeing a continuous barrage of information solely from the Russian side. Finally we have information from the Ukrainian side for badly needed balance. The media has clearly been almost exclusively only carrying stories that make the Russians look good and the Ukrainians look like monsters.
/Yes, it’s SARCASM.

And keep our troops and money home.
Worry not, my FRiend. I direct no flak at you. There is no reason to feel threatened by pro-American posts.
Watching the tragedy of this brutal senseless war between Russia and the global oligarchs should be enough to turn anybody into a pacifist.

Note, they mention the "Right Sector" (a group of Ukraine nationalist / neo-nazi paramilitaries) who insisted on clearing out all Russian speakers (otherwise called "genocide").
This very same "Right Sector's" leaders Dmytro Yarosh and Andriy Tarasenko, met and appeared publicly with John McCain, Chris Murphy and Victoria Nuland in Kiev in December 2013, right after the Maidan Coup started.
What a coincidence, eh?
God bless Russia.
Anyonme have videos of the war in Mexico with 250,000 dead the last decade or so? We should maybe build a wall.
