    President Zelensky refused to grant interview to Russian asset Tucker Carlson, who sometimes tried to pretend he's an actual journalist.

    It’s not surprising a dictator who puts bounties on journalists wouldn’t want to answer to one.

    You do realize what he is suggesting here, right? Jackson Hinkle is not a pro-Ukraine pundit.

    Please there could be video of Putin kissing the missle himself before pressing the big red launch button and saying “I’m going to blow up a children’s hospital today!” and two members of this forum would still call it fake news.

    I wasn’t commenting on the validity of it either way, just wasn’t sure if Sly knew who he was retweeting. I dont have twitter to read the comments.

    Bombing a children's hospital is the kind of thing you'd do if you were brainstorming a way to bring the worst possible public opinion down on yourself.

    Who benefits?

    Who benefits by hurting Ukraine as much as possible? Who has been trying to hurt Ukraine more than anyone else?

    Vladimir Putin

    This is an emotional response to a logical question.

    Lol. Yes, because making up conspiracy theories is far more logical.

    Nobody benefits more than Putin.

    You don’t know that it’s a conspiracy theory though, it actually looks like pretty compelling evidence. I would think disproving it would be easy if it were so laughable.
    Putin would benefit from this about as much as Assad benefited from “gassing his own people”. Or do we still believe that long ago debunked story here in the OT too?

    I’m intrigued by the version of Putin that lives in your head, who is worried at all about public opinion and hoping those mean Ukrainians get caught bombing their own hospital. Does this version of Putin also feel sad about all those coincidental accidents his political enemies suffer?

    I have Beast on ignor. I can see the pictures of the missiles he posted, before I sign in. But can not copy them into this post.

    There are at least 6 mistakes made in the photo shop that prove his post is fake.

    Easiest are the shadows. One missile has the shadows on top, the other below.

    The tail fins have several mistakes. It is clear an extra fin was added to the bottom missile. Plus the shorter fin length proves it was a Russian cruise missile.

    I can point out 3 more errors that prove his missile pick is fake.

    The missile that hit the childrens hospital was a Russian cruise missile.

    Are you saying the hospital wasn't bombed, the kids just simultaneously all fell out windows?

    I'm saying the Ukraine didn't bomb their own hospital just to make Russia look bad.

    You mean they didn't bomb their own world class children's hospital that is among their greatest points of national pride and which has been advanced and improved by each government throughout all of their governmental turmoil and changing of hands, etc?

    I mean... Why wouldn't they bomb that Hallmark of national hope and pride which also happens to be filled to the brim with their own sick and dying children?

    I mean… when you put it that way it sounds pretty silly to think they’d do that huh.
