analysis World War III

I believe that President Biden was right when he said that Russia is going to Invade Ukraine.

Any intelligent person is going to come to the same conclusion knowing that Russia has already decided to pay any price imposed on it by the West through sanctions.

Short of full military confrontation by the West there is nothing that can make Russia to change its mind as they see this as a golden opportunity to resurrect the once powerful superpower that was equal to the USA.

But Russia’s ambitions are not going to stop with taking over Ukraine since it already has made plans to increase its sphere of influence to Asia, Middle East, and South America and perhaps the whole World knowing that the West is most likely not going to do anything beyond just imposing sanctions which ultimately will hurt the West itself by effecting the Global economy in an adverse way the longer that they go on.

I personally don’t like any of the old ideologies, philosophies, and doctrines of Capitalism, Communism, Socialism, Religious Fundamentalism and all the other “ism” that are derived from the bad human characteristics of Greed, Lust, Hate, Cruelty, Jealousy, Prejudice, and lack of Empathy and that have been infringing on our rights in one way or another throughout the history because they can only exist through supporting inequality, oppression, suppression, torture, killing, and War.

When it comes to saving the World the last thing that I want to see is the further expansion of these old systems that have all already proven to be a failure in dealing with the existential problems that are currently facing Humanity and the Environment.

We don’t want all these political, Religious, and Racial parties and groups to resurrect their past, we want something new that can propel the World into the next Era that is based on the Universal Principles and Values that have been derived through Logic and Compassion and not through Force and Violence.

By “We” I mean all the Intelligent, Righteous, and Peace loving people of the World.

My wish, after seeing the picture below, is for me to have just 5 minutes with the 'soldier' p*ssy that killed this person riding his bike. The animal in this picture deserves a longer and better life than the scum (and his family) that did this.

I spent the weekend with several military friends (former and current) of mine...to a man, they all are ready to exact revenge whether they do it on Ukrainian soil or on the other side of the border. I've got no doubt, more that one will do exactly that within the next two weeks.

And your point is? How many images of mutilated civilian bodies does it take to convict of war crimes?

Edit: I'll add shame to that list...the Russians I know are too ashamed of their army's actions to speak of it.

As they should be. Military actions are bad enough, but what is going on now is just straight up terrorism.

This is just the start. Wait until people have more access to cities like Mariupol.
It is likely to be even worse there.

There is an absurd amount of evidence already for war crimes against civilians. For anyone to deny that is delusional and should not be taken seriously.

This is not just Putin though. You have to have some real disgusting and demented people in the military willing to carry out this level of violence and atrocities against civilians.

After seeing the suffering Russia has inflicted on so many innocent people, I not really even sure how you allow them back into the modern world.

There is no coming back from this. They need to be shunned until major changes are made.

The pictures coming out of the recently liberated Ukrainian Cities are heartbreaking,

From the samples of handiwork that the Russian forces have left behind it seems now that there were the real potentials for a million or more Civilians to have been slaughtered if the Russian forces had been successful in taking over Kyiv and some of the other major Ukrainian Cities.

I don’t think that there are too many people outside of Russia that approve of these kinds of actions by their Army.

If someone has posted this already, accept my apologies. Some good information in this report regarding war crimes, chain of command, etc.

If Putin survives long enough, a trial will be held whether he is detained or not. After listening to what constitutes a war crime, he will have many others sharing the 'stage' with him.

Bringing War crimes charges has proved to be a very difficult thing in previous Wars because despite of the many gruesome pictures that you see it is not always easy to connect these crimes to the higher ups in the chain of command.

The only practical chance that the World court has is to charge Russia with conducting a 'War of Aggression' which means that there were no legal justification for this War and as such Russia has committed an illegal act.

But in reality these tactics are only effective against dictators in third World Countries. When you are dealing with a major Nuclear Power the only practical option is to try Russia in the court of public opinion and perhaps cut it off from the World community (and that's provided that China is going to go along with that).

Don't be surprised though if the West gives Russia a pass on these atrocities in the interest of ending the War and establishing Peace again.

To put it simply, major powers specially those with veto power can and have gotten away with a lot worse in the past (like what China has done to certain religious and ethnic groups) because the UN and the World Court just don't have the power to deal with such Countries specially if they haven’t surrendered or been defeated in a War like Hitler.

The Russian occupying forces, which launched a full-scale invasion, do not allow the residents of Melitopol to leave for the Ukraine-controlled territory, instead, the citizens are offered “green corridors” to the temporarily occupied Crimea.

This was claimed by the Melitopol Mayor Ivan Fedorov on the air of the telethon.

“According to my estimates, there are about 70-75 thousand people in the city. The occupiers are doing everything to prevent people from leaving the city. Normally, the road from Zaporizhzhya to Melitopol is 1 hour, as far as I know in wartime it is 4 hours, but currently, it takes 2 days. The occupiers deliberately delay everything in order not to let people out and occupy the city”, concluded Fedorov.

According to him, the occupiers block even unofficial green corridors and try to direct everyone to the temporarily occupied Crimea.

“Everyone is sent only to Crimea. It is said that it is possible to get there without problems, but our people do not want to go to Crimea”, the mayor added.

It is noted that today, evacuation buses and a column of private cars are to be sent from Melitopol to Zaporizhzhia. According to the mayor, today 1,500 – 2,000 citizens will attempt to evacuate.

Since the beginning of the full-scale invasion, Russian occupational troop-slaves have killed at least 153 children, and 245 more injured.

This is reported by the press center of the Prosecutor General’s Office of Ukraine.

“Almost 400 children have suffered in Ukraine since the beginning of the Russian armed aggression. Among them 153 have died 245 more were injured”, the department concluded.
According to the Chief Prosecutor Office, the most children have suffered in the Kyiv region – 73, Donetsk region – 65, Kharkiv region – 53, Chernihiv region – 43, Mykolaiv region – 30, Luhansk region – 31, Zaporizhia region – 22, Kherson region – 29, Sumy region – 16, Zhytomyr Region – 15, and in Kyiv city – 16.

The Chief Prosecutor’s Office emphasized that the data are not final, as the information on children affected in the places of active hostilities and areas temporarily occupied by the enemy is being updated. In particular, in the city of Mariupol, in certain territories of Kyiv, Chernihiv, and Luhansk regions.

It is noted that on March 31, a 2-year-old girl from Lysychansk Luhansk oblast died from serious injuries, who, together with her 7-year-old brother, had been seriously injured the previous day. On the same day, in the Donetsk region, 5 minors were taken to a medical institution who were injured by shelling.

Moreover, according to the Chief Prosecutor’s Office, 859 educational institutions were damaged as a result of bombing and shelling in Ukraine, 83 of them were completely destroyed. The worst situation is in Donetsk, Kharkiv, Mykolaiv, Sumy, Kyiv, Kherson, Zhytomyr, Chernihiv regions, and Kyiv.

there is a high probability that all this Bucha's massacre was staged by unqualified UKR spec. forces.

In fact, the majority of these bodies were killed by UKR artillery trying to shoot RUS army. UKRs are killing own population accusing it for assistance to RUS. Miserable measures.

Do you know that UKR army using own civilians as a shied while attacking RUS army?

Why dont you tell about massacre of 8 years length in Ukrianes areas - DONBAS and LUHANSK?
UKR army is responsible for killing hundreds of innocent children and their mothers? a very inconvenient question. Silence!

God bless US and all the kind people of the world!

And this is the result of 22 years of watching Putin's TV propaganda. The damage is quite deep.

Are there many people in Russia believing all that shit?

Your dictator has invaded a sovereign democracy, and is mass killing innocent civilians each day. Russian troops are torturing, raping and killing hundreds of innocent civilians. You must be quite brainwashed to think that ukrainians have done those atrocities to its own people.

Your russian dictator is a mass murderer without any soul and moral. He is a total assassin en masse.

You must be kidding to believe all that shit. I can understand that someone watching 24 hours a day Putin's TV can be finally enough brainwashed to believe all that shit.

Don't be surprised though if the West gives Russia a pass on these atrocities in the interest of ending the War and establishing Peace again.

As far as the West goes, especially the neighbors of Ukraine (EU), I'm disappointed in the resistance various counties have exhibited in providing advanced weapons systems that could be of more assistance. It is not a matter of money, the 'west' could initiate a system similar to the lend-lease one used at the beginning of WW2. The Ukraine has the ability to repay debts once things get back to a pre-war footing

I've been attributing the delay to usual 'behind the scenes' things that have to worked out before such an action could happen. Seeing the clear murder of men, women and children should expedite the action(s).

As far a holding Russia responsible for the war crimes, that would certainly be harder to pull off. I am not angry with the average Russian citizen, even if they are a rabid supporter of Putin. They have been brainwashed, re-educated, indoctrinated, etc. for two decades (just as Hitler did to his country in the years leading up to WW2). But, unfortunately, they (Russia) will have to compensate the Ukraine at some point, somehow. The awful reality is that those that have died and those left behind to suffer those deaths can never be compensated for their losses.

Putin and anyone in a position of power (as well as any 'solider' proved to have committed any crimes) should stand trial at some point.

Side note: Speaking of trials, I return for jury duty in an hour...not sure what the case is but they have spent two days picking the jury. If it turns out to be scum distributing Fentanyl, I will hold out for a life sentence.
