    Comrade clueless! Putin's propagandist who was convicted by the US of being spy in 2019 tells the BBC President Zelensky is a 'Nazi', denies Russia is bombing civilians and says the war 'is going to plan'
    • Butina, who was convicted in 2018, added that Russia's invasion of Ukraine 'is going to plan' in an interview with the BBC
    • When Butina, 33 and now a member of Russian parliament, was asked by a host if Zelensky is a Nazi, she responded: 'According to his actions, absolutely'
    • Robinson defended Zelensky by pointing out that the Ukrainian president is Jewish and that his 'great-grandfather died fighting the Nazis as part of Russia'
    • Butina, who now creates social media propaganda videos backing the war, denied accusations of bombing civilians, saying: 'Russia is not bombing citizens'

    I do not want to see us get into a war at all, but I have to admit, watching dog fights between F-35's and Su-57's would be pretty damn wild.

    Easy to see why the Trump cult loves these people - equal contempt for the truth.

    Russia using thermobaric rockets 'which rupture lungs' in Ukraine, confirms MOD
    Russia has confirmed it has used the strictly regulated thermobaric rockets in its ongoing attack of Ukraine, the Ministry of Defence tweeted today

    Russia has confirmed it has used strictly regulated thermobaric rockets in its ongoing attack against Ukraine, the Ministry of Defence said today.

    The missile is seen as one of the deadliest on the modern-day battlefield, so much so its use is strictly regulated.

    The Russian missiles explode at a much higher temperature than most missiles, and their blasts last longer than conventional weapons.

    They are fired by the TOS-1A, an armoured rocket launcher, which can be used to destroy infrastructure and due the heat it produces it can cause massive damage to internal organs and cause flash burns.

    The Ministry of Defence confirmed that previous footage had shown Moscow was using the TOS-1A against Ukraine, and if Putin was to use this against civilians it would be illegal.

    This is a clear cut war crime to use against a civilian population.

    Who knows what was hiding in that maternity ward. Could have been bombs and grenades that they were going to launch from the cribs. You just never know.
