proud of my fellow Americans who are on the ground helping train Ukrainians or fighting alongside them in the International Legion. Ukraine is fighting for freedom and the outcome of this war will effect the balance between liberty and tyranny worldwide. That is why Ukraine must prevail. Glory to Ukraine!!
@Josefiina Mikaela not just a few that are wearing nazi symbols
@Josefiina Mikaela you can think what you want but the fact is that you’re insulting yourself(go through our entire conversation)so don’t play a victim ,it doesn’t suit you…you were pretty mouthy yet you gave me no answers on how and why you see fit collaborating with people who defend committing a genocide…what kind of a person are you then? That’s why I judged your ability to raise children….history obviously thought you nothing,yet is screaming at you,that’s why I judged your education….I’m just rationally thinking by informations you’re giving me,not assuming or deliberately putting you down,you’re putting yourself down with your own rationale
Here’s the bottom line. If the election wasn’t stolen from President Donald Trump. This war would not be happening. CNN is trying to advance the Globalist agenda and put all of us at each others throats. They want our country to fail they want a world war III, Wake up all you sheep!
Traditional MLK / JFK liberal here (NOT a progressive as I see no inconsistency bt liberalism and patriotism – neither did JFK – (I dig on Sammie actually)). Anywho, given Putin is sending Syrian fighters to UKR – anyone think it might be a good idea to CLOSE THE SOUTHERN BOARDER AS MATTER of NAT SECURITY? Remember 9/11? That happens on our watch – terrorists or mercenaries funded by Putin or his underwriter the CCP get in because traditional Dem liberals who love USA and individualism caved to the religious dogma of the hard left in matters of National Security (eg open boarders / white hate / racial division being INDOCTRINATED into US military etc. Btw, real liberals open LAWS not BOARDERS) – and a strike happens – Trump wins 2024 and 2028 guaranteed and Republicans control BOTH houses.
Could we PLEASE – at least in areas of National Security – DUMP insane religious dogma and stop the clear pro CCP geo global power agenda advocated by Wall Street (many WS firms have bet the farm on CCP vs USA and will use their power to protect their investment – not Sammie) and Progressives (good idea to be alienating Saudi Arabia right now?))? Speaking of Progressives, does it bother anyone these evident neo-marxists authoritarians all seem to have materialized out of “elite” universities awash in tens of MILLIONS of $$$ of CCP cash? – buying what exactly?
Mention great America’s and the haters of the greatest country comes to light.Get a life you sheep’s and move away.
You can’t ever underestimate someone who is fighting for their love, their land, homes and freedoms. Stay Strong Ukraine from the US. 💪🇺🇸♥️🇺🇦☮️💙💛
@I Care This is a pathetically obvious far right troll account. FYI, everyone knows you are lying the second you tried prefacing your far right rhetoric by stating an obvious lie about your political affiliation. Maybe try not claiming to not be far right before launching into a far right tirade of trigger words.

@Oksana Love This is an obvious Russian propaganda troll account…
@Андрей Исаев you can justify annihilate your neighbor . You’re the fascist
@Josh Wilson you Provocation attacks on the Ukraine, Provocation war its crime crezy crime 💣 🤯
It is time for the Russian people to stand up for what is right. They wanted a “strong” government and this is what that looks like. They need to deal with their politics and stop acting like Russian peasants of old.
@Hannah Dyson America raised an army in Ukraine and killed14000 Ukrainians in 8 years of provocation attacks on the DPR and LPR. Even before the arrival of Russia with a special operation inUkraine? ARE YOU under hypnosis?
@Oksana Love I said that there are many Nazi Putinist disinformation agents who spread lies. And you are one of them.

Oh, is that how it works under totalitarian regimes? You just “stand up” and the nice dictator skedaddles right outta there? Those idiots in NK, Cuba, China, and so many other dictatorships around the world are just too stupid to figure out that all they need to do is “stand up”. Glad you showed them the way, Jo Gro. Now we just sit back, relax and wait for those sweet, sweet revolutions to roll around any minute now.
What I find so heroic is in the face of their fellow countrymen being slaughtered by the Russian military they still find compassion in dealing with the Russian prisoners of war. The people of Ukraine are truly the face of democracy in the world today.
@Ivan Smirnov Any political leader who owns a $450 million yacht is a dodgy character and YOU and YOUR people can’t see he’s lining his own pockets!!! Additionally, Vladolf Putler is the biggest coward on the planet today. Unable to take criticism, he jails any political opponent as he is afraid of the political fight. Gutless to the core.

@Ivan Smirnov Your take on Bolsheviks is quite interesting: you said they weren’t russian but an “international terrorist group”… I smell antisemitism, man! Are you sure you didn’t forget to say “Jewish”? And you might not be antisemitic, but certainly a lot of putinists actually are, something that turns the “denazification of Ukraine” even more ridiculous.
Sure, many leading Bolsheviks were Jewish, but still Bolsheviks were “russians” in many senses (and I know the difference between русский и россиян): not only they came from all corners of the Russian empire and had different ethnicities but also the vast majority of them were actually ethnic russians.
The funny part is this: why the Kremlin war criminal fascist and United Russia persecute NGO and historians who do research on Stalinist atrocities and why there are lots of right-wingers admiring and even defending Stalin? Because of “great Russian chovininism”! Stalin might be a georgian Bolshevik but he took USSR (i.e. Russia) to the center of world politics and world history. Sure Bolsheviks interrupted the normal course of Russian culture, but Stalin made famous that very same culture all around the world. And guess what: lots of left wing putinists outside Russia support the “special fascist not war at all operation” because the link of that culture to left wing politics and antimperialism.

Its pretty debatable whether it is violating the Geneva Convention, which states that POWs should be protected “against insults and public curiosity”, which I take to mean parading them in public to be abused, rather than being interviewed on video, bearing in mind that the convention was written in 1949. Besides, Russia has made it very clear that this is not a war, so I’m not sure how much this would apply anyway. Likewise Ukraine has not declared war on Russia.
@Get on the cross and don’t look back Blessings to you. I think their faith is one thing that has humanized the Ukrainian people like this video shows.
@Rara Avis very true

@William Glaser:
Maybe not, but you’re not real either.
When your own army feels this way, you’ve clearly lost the war.

And you are just eating it all up like a
d u m b – a s s.They are just saving their own a s s.
@Will Reese Yeah except not even Putin’s own soldiers believe that BS anymore, whereas the dictatorial nature of Saddam Hussein’s regime was undeniable. The Taliban might be more complex, but I don’t think there was ever much morale problem for the U.S. military insofar as believing that getting rid of them was a good thing to do.
@Robert Kirchner They were not drafted. These Russian soldiers are.
It’s worth noting, its common to say “i was told to do so” as an excuse if tried by a court. Hoping that following orders will give them leniency. Plus, they are captured, of course they are going to play innocent as much as they can. They don’t seem to have any issues dropping the bombs or pulling the trigger before they are captured.
But what’s distinctive about the remarks quoted here, are the soldiers saying that these actions are inexcusable, and that they will all be judged. They’re not asking for leniency because they followed orders, they know what they did was wrong and that they’ll face penalties. And try to imagine yourself being young, far from home, and being told to pull a trigger or else you yourself will be shot.
Exactly
@Daniel Dickson They say that & then immediately say they would like to go back home to their families. They’re playing on emotion
In other words, they are sorry now that they are caught
@Daniel Dickson Also, they don’t seem to be captured in the sense that they gave up after losing a battle or skirmish. They made their way to a safe place to voluntarily surrender or they voluntarily surrendered when they made contact. At least that’s the picture I get.
My heart goes out to the people of Ukraine 🇺🇦
As a Russian prisoner in Ukraine I’d be far more worried about getting killed by Russian bombs/artillery than by my captors
Or about my punishment once I was returned home to Russia. My guess it’s going to be hard time in a military prison.
@TheChillimouse understandably considering the past use of torturing pows into confessions etc
Good Point
@Cedric Land most people have no idea what war propaganda is. Admittedly, I’m not an expert, however, I said the exact same thing to everyone who was saying, “the Russian soldiers don’t even want to be there….they were tricked, blah, blah”. Even my mother, I was surprised! I asked her, “don’t you think there’s someone standing next to the person filming, holding a rifle?! You don’t find it odd that they are all saying the *exact same thing*!!”
Russia calls this a “special operation”, as such this is not a war, so the Geneva convention does not apply to their soldiers. If the Russians called it truthfully a war/invasion, then it would apply. Russia only has its itself to blame for it soldiers being used in this way.
@Doginu Hmmm, I wonder if they would be attacking if Russia never joined those rebels covertly.
@Doginu That’s like saying I’m wrong for fighting a guy that’s trying to kill me. Of course I’m fighting him, he’s trying to kill me. lol
@Doginu Also, they’re not an official part of the Ukrainian military. They, along with other factions, have been supported by the Ukrainian military because of what Russia did in 2014.
They are clearly wearing military uniforms with Russian insignia. What does it matter what someone in the Kremlin calls it? They are soldiers sent to war. That much is obvious.
Shrub called it “Operation Iraqi Freedom”. Would you be OK with captured US servicemen being abused? I mean, it’s not a “war”, right?
@Poopybutt McGregurson Yes. Putin already told the US and NATO repeatedly since 2007, that expansion into Ukraine is a Red Line…US just put missile sites in Poland and Romania. Missiles in Cuba was Red Line for us…
I got to know a family in Canada quite well in 2010, have known them for years now.
He had a PHD in physics, Masters Degree in Mathematics. She was a Mechanical Engineer.
He ran a rocket fuel plant in Russia, pre peristoka glasnost (sp)
They got out with some money and made a fresh start, told me lots of stories about the current situations in Russia.
Believe what you are hearing.
One of the reasons they emigrated to Canada was because one of the sons was coming of age and they didn’t want him in the army.
Sounds like Walt Disney movie.
Where the west buy a scientis to see what are working on.
This Walt Disney movies have Russian renegades to stage on TV how horrible was back home.
@Pedro MatosAs were the Russians of Lugansk and Donetsk and Krim.
@Kris R you made me think with your comments and I appreciate it.
I think they are too afraid to seek for whatever is outside their normal daily life. It seems that people who are too curious don’t leave long in Russia.
Weeping ZELENSKYY IS great help for Biden.
Biden is a good player. He used Russia and Ukraine to destroy Trump in home, destroy EU resistance and sell weapons.
Biden created a solid bond with Allies to force sanctions to all countries.
Biden gets ZELENSKYY to weep over his destruction to sell Weapons.
WEEPING ZELENSKYY helps to unite all medias for Biden to force sell Weapons. Great players.
We the audience are fool.

There is a nuance that is missed by the reporter concerning interviewing the prisoners of war, during this ongoing conflict. The letter of the law says it’s wrong to make pow into spectacles, but the spirit of the law means that pow should be treated decently and not paraded before angry mobs throwing insults and rocks..
If these men are remorseful and wish to convey their experience and regret over what they’ve done it’s worth interviewing them in a manner that preserved their human dignity. Furthermore, their testimonies may help warn other young men in Russia against joining the military or any conscript training that will land them in the same predicament of being either killed, captured or forced to commit war crimes.. The benefits by far outweigh the risk so the spirit of the law is upheld in my humble opinion..
@Ivan Smirnov You may sneer and boast, but your words are as hollow as your head seems to be.
It’s your *homeland* that’s being ‘dismantled’ .
Your economy is plummeting, your currency is worthless, your freedom of speech is toast, and you are being isolated internationally. Your army is being slaughtered, and your countries government has become hated. Putins actions in Ukraine are dismantling Russia itself, and sending it back to the stone age. All you have left is your insults and boasts, and they are as worthless as the contents of your wallet.
Boast about THAT.
I would check to see if these captive Ukrainian soldiers had all their teeth before I granted such an interview. No CNN completely missed the mark on nuance.
@MarcosElMalo2 you might be right, it’s just a matter of perspective. For me, the important part is the intention of the law, which is to protect human dignity. From what I’ve seen so far the dignity of these men is being respected by Ukrainian forces.. some of them even seem relieved to be able to express their remorse, warn their countrymen and potentially do something to help bring this senseless war to an end..
Young conscripted soldiers in Russia have to choose between disobeying orders and a bullet. You don’t seem to be vary familiar with military realities nor the realities pertaining to life in under an autocratic regime, so why comment in the first place?
@Nec pluribus impar No I don’t know everything about how Russia recruits soldiers or conscripts. All I meant was that if other young men in Russia were thinking about joining Putin’s forces and they saw these testimonies, they probably wouldn’t. Whatever you think about my comment if fine by me.. But I retain my right to comment.
My chest hurts holding my tears watching the video, God Bless Ukraine and whole world.SPREAD LOVE AND PEACE …
Then blind yourself. Oh wait… too late. Do you think this is an atrocity when compared to the U.S. illegally testing portable nuclear weapons on the people of Iraq? What about U.S. soldiers slaughting the innocent in protection of heroine poppies in Afghanistan or oil being stolen by foreign businesses in Syria? You were blind to the sins of this world until it affected WHITE PEOPLE, maybe you should be asking yourself why that is?
@Notcho Momma LOL.
@Notcho Momma Fake news, false equivalence, and quite frankly a pathetic attempt to push a racial bias narrative. Let me guess, you’re either a bot or AL Sharpton
😢😅😅
From what I understand about history is that it really does not matter what the troops in the ground have to say about any war. Vietnam taught us all this. This is why troop morale was so low then as it is said to be in Ukraine now.
I stand with Ukraine!! Please stay strong and may God protect President Zelensky and the brave Ukrainian people
@Owen Mersk i think the reason we’re putting so much emphasis on the invasion of ukraine is because that war directly affects europe, where as the horrors happening in other parts of the world don’t. However it’s all horrific to see whats happening
Stand with Ukraine.?… But What about what Donnie will think….?
@C Snide Nobody with any common sense cares what his pea brain thinks
@Raymond Savage Wow. Are you think the lives of white europeans matter more than human beings in other parts of the world? That would be white supremacist activist ideology
@Owen Mersk no one brought race into it except you, It is NOT about white, black, brown or whatever color a person is. YOu might look into why the news is reported, for one that stands out , is that the countries you have mentioned the war has been going on for years, this one is new, it is done by a country with MAJOR power and a dictator. the other countries are NOT major powers
The Geneva Convention also condemns, by doctrine, everything Russia is doing in Ukraine. I think I can forgive them: for allowing Russian POW’s to speak, if that is their wish.
Amen to that!
It’s so cruel for a leader to make their soldiers fight under false pretenses. To make them carry unimaginable guilt for the rest of their lives, if they survive, after learning they were deceived and committing these acts against innocent people.
Hey let’s keep the Iraq War out of this
Is any war and killing justifiable do you think?
@Brad Blackwell Ironically Russia, China, and Syria voted in favor of UN resolution 1441.
@Stonem001 sounds like America we live in today
There is no excuse for the soldiers to invade another country and kill the innocent people. Soldiers have blood in their hands, and should be fully responsible and accountable for properties and lives lost as a result of their actions. Every soldier who has been captured by his enemy would give excuses that he was just following the orders of his general. Do these soldiers not have brains of their own?
Those soldiers have a lifetime of trauma ahead of them for the things they’ve been forced to do. Yet another tragedy of this war.
All soldiers, no one comes home from war the same.
My heart is bleeding for the people of UKRAINE. Seeing on the news, the inhumane sufferings, deaths inflicted on them right now, is heartbreaking.💔💔💔 PRAYERS for UKRAINE and its people!🙏🙏🙏
Had you not got the same feeling for Iraq when america was bombing it and showing the world how their smart bombs cdd as n go down a chimney to kill a family’s inside .
@tuforu4 McDonald’s is not McDonalds with out the supply chain support, hahaha!
Amen
@Paul Henry yes!
@tuforu4 Cause you don’t understand what kind of weapons they have. They’ve invested TRILLIONS of dollars into their military in the last couple of years, thats trillions with a T
I did 6 years in the US Navy. Once we passed a Russian warship and they hauled up an American flag. We waved and hauled up a Russian flag. We even had a bridge to bridge chat with them for a few minutes. It would have killed me to have to fire on these Russian sailors and I’m sure they felt the same way. I hope there will be an end to this senseless killing soon.
If you felt that way can you imagine what Ukrainian and Russian feel now. Brother kills brother.
