In Donetsk region, Ukrainian defenders have advanced to take some territory in the city of Horlivka proper. This ground, somewhere in the west of Horlivka, was occupied by the Russian fascist invaders in 2014.
Maintaining operational security, recent reports by the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine merely note enemy airstrikes east of Pivdenne.

The rashists carried out airstrikes near Klishchiyivka and New York. They shelled about 20 settlements on this front including Kalyinivka, Ivanivs'ke, Klishchiyivka, Andriyivka, Odradivka and Kurdyumivka in Donetsk region.

On the day the Russian fascist invaders killed over 50 Europeans, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz reaffirmed his blockage of Taurus missiles that could have prevented the attack.

If the pro-Russia Treason Caucus in the United States has its way, military assistance to Ukraine will be cut.
The U.S. won’t engage in combat to stop Russian aggression. If the only democracy that does fight is abandoned, Americans lose the essence of who they are as a people.

2023-10-04 15:59:21

Out of wisdom and courage, Ukrainians have been fighting the Russian fascist invaders for over 9 1/2 years.
Out of childish fear, leaders of other democratic nations failed to practice collective security and use armed force against the criminal aggression of the rashists.

2023-10-01 16:44:52

The ability of Joe Biden to win the next election is tied to the ability of Ukrainian defenders to defeat the Russian fascist invaders quickly.
This reality of politics makes the Biden Administration’s delays, limits and conditions on weapons provided to Ukraine seem suicidal.

This should be headline news everywhere in the world. It isn’t.
No longer reporting important events, mainstream news media failed the public trust.

2023-09-22 06:28:54

The United States has once again refused to supply needed longer-range strike weapons to defender Ukraine – without rational explanation.
With the U.S. under attack externally by Russia and internally by the MAGA cult, the Biden admin chose to be cowardly, weak and foolish.

At the behest of aggressor Russia, Elon Musk saved Russian missile carriers from destruction. These missile carriers went on to attack Ukrainian towns and cities – terrorist attacks by Russia that killed many innocent people.
Elon Musk is responsible for causing needless deaths.

2023-09-13 11:23:24

Treason.
Elon Musk consulted with operatives of the Russian terrorist state exclusively before he sabotaged a Ukrainian military mission meant to damage the Russian invasion fleet.
He did not consult with American or Ukrainian officials.

Nazi Germans could not believe Britain was able to bomb Berlin by June 1940.
Fascist Russians cannot believe Ukraine is able to strike Moscow and beyond.
Arrogance and ignorance by imperialist aggressors is their fatal weakness.

2023-08-26 01:42:13

Leaving Ukraine to be the only democratic nation in combat with the Russian fascist invaders is a big mistake – one Western leaders have made for 9 1/2 years.
Not allowing Ukraine to have overwhelming air power and long-range missile strike power greatly compounds this mistake.

It’s one of the great tragedies of our times that policy-makers in the United States – no matter which party is in power – have never come to terms with the fact that Russia isn’t a nation-state and never was. They refuse to accept that Russia is only a criminal terrorist regime.
