Not looking good for Russia. No legitimate military targets off limits, even inside Russia.

c_v,So by all means continue belly aching about everything that's wrong with the West, but don't forget that you wouldn't like any alternative system as it would be far more repressive and you certainly wouldn't have the freedom to express your mind.
Do you prefer US and UK establishment or Putin's kleptocracy?the bias, the propaganda and fraud etc. embedded within the U.K. and U.S. establishment.

How about the U.S. stopped its bullying, instigating coup d'états and engaging in conflicts all over the shop merely to maintain its hegemony and impose their so called 'international rules based system' on the world which, as we all know, is designed to keep them in pole position and the $USD as the world's reserve currency. That's what this is really all about. Obviously, they won't do that voluntarily - someone and/or circumstances will impose that change upon them. That's the alternative and it can't come about soon enough in my book.I dont' like US hegemony but athe moment I don't see a better alternative.
If you're talking about a matter of principle, then I agree with you 100%. However, the flip side of that coin is also true. Namely, the fact that conspiracy and anti-US narrative is different from mainstream does not turn it into a falsehood. In this case, the narrative that I, histo' and others outline is self evidently much nearer to the truth than the narrative that you and c_v purport which, also self evidently, is largely false.The fact that conspiracy and anti-US narrative is different from mainstream does not turn it into the truth.
Yes this is the reason every citizen of US and UK feels so oppressed and plans to migrate to RussiaThere is no real difference: US and UK establishment = US and UK kleptocracy
.. and nobody of the Western war supporters wants to migrate to the darkness in Ukraine - I really wonder whyYes this is the reason every citizen of US and UK feels so oppressed and plans to migrate to Russia

Gotta love MEP Claire Daly. Short, sharp and bang on the money. Enjoy . . .
c_v,A quite ridiculous opinion she is expressing there on so many levels.
The first thing she needs to wrap her head around is the fact that Ukrainians have zero interest in any negotiated peace that rewards Russian terrorism under Putin.
