Sorry man but he somewhat has a point, the Ukrainian losses that you post are getting so enormous that it is becoming hard for me to watch ALL the videos (due to time constraints, it is not that I disapprove of Nato supplied equipment attacking the former independent republics, getting destroyed)

But Rooster his problem is not the symptom; you posting the destruction, but rather, the cause; Nato trained troops getting destroyed with their fancy equipment. His beef is not with you as a person, his beef is with the inability of the Nato trained troops to make any significant gains and maybe also with the western funding running out. (It could also be he got scammed buying tickets for the Crimea beach party) So give him a break; it is just the reality of the situation is setting in. His dislikes are his only way to do something about the situation, even if it achieves even less compared to what the nato trained troops are currently achieving

Faust gets itchy whenever Ukrainian army is particularly active anywhere for any reason. It reminds me of last year before Russians left (retreated from) northern Kherson oblast after an extensive, months-long campaign to destroy Russian logistics, which clearly succeeded.

Would Dr. Faustus care to share his October/November 2022 DR predictions/quotes about the Kherson Offensive and how it relates to the current one?

I understand on this board it is only considered a war crime if an ethnic Ukrainian is involved that is in support of the Kiev regime.

I see you just had to mention things from the past (again) that has nothing to do with current war crimes but maybe you also meant : The war crimes and crimes against humanity which were perpetrated by the Soviet Union and its armed forces from 1919 to 1991 include acts which were committed by the Red Army (later called the Soviet Army) as well as acts which were committed by the country's secret police, NKVD, including its Internal Troops.

In many cases, these acts were committed upon the orders of the Soviet leaders Vladimir Lenin and Joseph Stalin in pursuance of the early Soviet government's policy of Red Terror.

In other instances they were committed without orders by Soviet troops against prisoners of war or civilians of countries that had been in armed conflict with the USSR, or they were committed during partisan warfare.

A significant number of these incidents occurred in Northern, Central, and Eastern Europe recently before, and during, the aftermath of World War II, involving summary executions and the mass murder of prisoners of war, such as in the Katyn massacre and mass rape by troops of the Red Army in territories they occupied.

In the 1990s and 2000s, war crimes trials held in the Baltic states led to the prosecution of some Russians, mostly in absentia, for crimes against humanity committed during or shortly after World War II, including killings or deportations of civilians.

And about current war crimes:
GENEVA/ VIENNA (16 March 2023) – Russian authorities have committed a wide range of violations of international human rights law and international humanitarian law in various regions of Ukraine, many of which amount to war crimes, the Independent International Commission of Inquiry on Ukraine said in a new report Thursday.

The war crimes include attacks on civilians and energy-related infrastructure, wilful killings, unlawful confinement, torture, rape and other sexual violence, as well as unlawful transfers and deportations of children.

The Commission’s evidence shows that in areas that came under their control, Russian authorities have committed wilful killings of civilians or persons not involved in fighting (hors de combat), which are war crimes and violations of the right to life.

Russian armed forces have carried out attacks with explosive weapons in populated areas with an apparent disregard for civilian harm and suffering, failing to take the required precautions.

The attacks were indiscriminate and disproportionate, in violation of international humanitarian law.

The use of explosive weapons in populated areas has been one of the main causes of civilian casualties. The Commission was struck by the extent of the destruction it has observed during its visits.

The waves of attacks by Russian armed forces on Ukraine’s energy-related infrastructure from 10 October 2022, may amount to crimes against humanity, according to the Commission, which said that this should be investigated further.

The disruption of energy-related infrastructure led to entire regions and millions of people being left for periods without electricity or heating, particularly during freezing temperatures.

The Commission established a pattern of widespread unlawful confinement in areas controlled by Russian armed forces, targeting broad categories of men, women and children.

Confinement in dedicated facilities across Ukraine and in the Russian Federation was accompanied by consistent methods of torture against certain categories of persons by Russian authorities.

A former detainee underwent beatings as a “punishment for speaking Ukrainian” and for “not remembering the lyrics of the anthem of the Russian Federation”.

This pattern of torture may amount to crimes against humanity, according to the Commission, and should be investigated further.

The Commission found numerous instances of rape and sexual and gender-based violence committed by Russian authorities as they undertook house-to-house searches in localities that came under their control and during unlawful confinement.

Sexual violence amounting to torture and the threat of such against women and men have been important aspects of the torture exercised by Russian authorities.

While looking into transfers of children from Ukraine to the Russian Federation, the Commission found, with concern, that violations of human rights and international humanitarian law have been committed.

Situations concerning the transfer and deportation of children which it has examined amount to war crimes. Witnesses told the Commission that many of the younger children transferred were not able to establish contact with their families and might lose contact with them indefinitely. Delay in the repatriation of civilians may also amount to a war crime.

The Commission also documented a small number of violations committed by Ukrainian armed forces, including likely indiscriminate attacks and two incidents qualifying as war crimes, where Russian prisoners of war were shot, wounded and tortured.

Beyond sharing their deep loss and trauma with the Commission, survivors highlighted the importance of identifying those responsible and holding them accountable.

One man, whose father was executed by Russian armed forces in the Izium region, told the Commission: “They punished innocent people; now those who are guilty, if they are still alive, need to be punished to the fullest extent.”

The Commission recommends that all violations and crimes be investigated and those responsible be held accountable, either at the national or the international level. It calls for a comprehensive approach to accountability that includes both criminal responsibility and the victims’ right to truth, reparation, and non-repetition.

For the report, the Commission visited 56 localities and interviewed 348 women and 247 men. Its investigators inspected sites of destruction, graves, places of detention and torture, as well as weapon remnants, and consulted a large number of documents and reports.

Everyone sees a pattern here by war crimes committed on a constant basis, because that's how they roll, and a small number of war crimes committed by soldiers defending their country and probably lost some relatives by the hand of the friendly, totally not criminal, russian illegally invaders committing war crimes on a large scale.

Still, you cannot argue with that official US published 7 to 1 ratio for every Ukrainian soldier killed compared to a single civilian* making this one of the cleanest large scale military operations of the 21st century, especially taking into account the fighting in densely populated areas, not to mention war crimes committed by the Kiev regime of using human shields:

*US officials probably low balled the 70.000 UKR military deaths as to not have the narrative and funding for the war destroyed

As for the war crimes committed during 2014-2022 (our own boneface even boasted about a pregnant woman being killed), nobody is going to investigate them and only Russia will avenge the civilians killed the Kiev regime

Ella Pamfilova, head of Russia's Central Election Commission: Western model of democracy is unacceptable for Russia.

According to Pamfilova, in Western democracies, power belongs to the minority, which does not correspond to Russia's idea of democracy. She also expressed confidence in the effectiveness of her Commission, stressing that they successfully fulfil tasks with minimum costs and maximum efficiency. (The very same commission which has introduced electronic voting, held referendums on occupied territories and "nullified" presidential terms).

Pamfilova's statements came ahead of the gubernatorial elections and the upcoming presidential election in the spring of 2024, where Vladimir Putin could be elected for a fifth term, continuing his rule for almost a quarter of a century.

That video is fake and it was posted on the site sometime in 2015 and again last year by Boneface. He never boasted about it. He merely posted it with a generalised comment. If you watched that believing it was real, no wonder you believe some of the shit you believe. It's an obvious fake. Continuing to talk about it as being legit is just more misinformation.

You are talking about the crucifixion video?

He specifically said the dead pregnant woman was real, but she was not Jewish; the Neo nazis added that part because they thought it was funny. So only the religion part was fake according to boneface. Anyway where is the video??
