    “illegal military seizure?” That’s a lot of words to say “invasion”

    Never realized they were all actually so petite. Presumably because they all look 14.

    Gotta wonder where are they now. Still in Crimea? Dead somewhere else in Ukraine? Escaped Russia?

    One of two of earth’s superpowers marches on with AK47s on leather slings.

      Those are almost certainly AK74 on a fabric sling

    In the pursuit of peace we need to remember all the shitty things Russias has done. Not just Ukraine albeit that is more pressing.

    You could have told me this picture was from 1980 and I wouldn’t have known better

      Interesting comparison, but could I ask that you edit to use a different source? That’s an extremely imperialist apologist site.

          Didn’t question the assertion, I asked you to use a site that didn’t bootlick genocide, but I guess that was too much to ask.

          Also not what moving goalposts means.

              The very definition of Imperialism (which a lot of world users/admins engage in constantly) is being duped into pushing harder for World War III against Russia and China than you could ever muster to defend 50,000 innocent people being genocided using your tax money.

              Apparently Ukrainian people being genocided don’t matter.

              Remember, it’s “American provocation of WW3” when Russia commits genocide, but “To be opposed at all costs” when Israel commits genocide.
