PURE EVIL TO DROWN CIVILIANS, & ANIMALS !!!!
The US blew it up. Biden is a Terrorist.
WE ALL KNOW THAT THE USA DID IT
People are starving 90 miles off the coast of florida, in Cuba,(our neighbors), and we never help them.
& Haiti…
It is about time people help themselves. What are you doing to help?
@Ann Trope Haiti is gone. You may as well forget about it.
What stops you?
Oh the media is still pushing the proxy war on both sides smh 😅?!?!
Ukraine corrupt af they definitely did this
i guess Ukraine did this to its OWN land was because it was gonna be RUSSIA’S land pretty soon
These guys are more useless in numbers
Another false flag operation 😑
None of our business or concern
Somebody wants a big war really bad.
Ukraine should be the number 1 suspect
Keep the weapons and money flowing in
THIS IS ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS OUR LEADERS NEED TO BE BROUGHT BEFORE A WORLD TRIBUNAL. THEY JUST FLOODED OUT THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE
No more money .
So the nord pipeline was blown up by russia….but turns out it was ukraine. So this is probably ukraine too
Stop lying. Never turned out it was Ukraine. Not one shred of evidence for that.
Got proof?
Free fish and it ended the drought
“The purpose of practical politics is to keep people alarmed by a series of mostly imaginary hobgoblins so that they can be clamoring to be led to safety”
I got your nose…baby want it back?
How does that statement apply to this situation, and are you fool enough to believe that it does apply?
@Christine Robinson Putin’s wag the dog war is scary….innocent ppl are dieing….you feel bad about the boogie man. Support the innocent ppl or Ukraine by supporting your govt. You say what now and switch terms in denial. Beech I wrote your program
Why would the US blow up a Russian pipeline or fund gain of function on viruses or not prosecute the Biden’s. Politics, greed and perversion. Evil.
I hope a decisive insurrection breaks out in Russia and topples this psychopath regime, headed by the most dangerous, psychopath since Hitler!
Red alert, 😲 Ukrainian NATO armies blowing stuff up again😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮
Everyone thinking Ukraine did this probably thinks Jewish people gassed themselves in ww2…
This is a war crime and Russia needs to face immediate consequences.
Global military conflict is at a all time high – listening to the UN in any capacity is irrelevant these days, they have as much influence as let’s say. . .lint.
Yea I believe Russia did it, (sarcasm) that coming from the same liars that tried to say they blew up their own pipeline.
Just tell Biden to pay it with our tax money
What will happen will be Gods will.
Smoke pot.
@Randy’s Crafts you must be replying to the wrong post
At least they didn’t do this in winter
Play stupid games….Win stupid prizes. What they get for listening to The Big Guy.
Are we talking about Russia and consequences of starting a war on European continent?
@Therakus No we are talking about a corrupt Ukraine getting the results of poking the bear along with our leveraged POTUS and NATO.
So all the blow-hearts meet to discuss what happens in war?! Entertaining
Entertainment is all it is to us but a massive boon of tax dollars for the corrupt ones.
@Randy’s Crafts The big event is coming to enslave the masses.
NATO did it with help from the Biden Administration, obviously!
That’s a fact.
Putin is another Hitler, he needs to be stopped. Destroying our planet. Kid killer 😢
Too much “news” for you,
@sam rut not enough for you or what
Not our problem. America is in worst shape now than it has been in very long time. We need to get our sh+t together before we help anyone else. No one is helping us, not even our own president and his admin.
Would you like a precedent to be established that nuclear nation can take territory of non-nuclear nation by force? That violates UN Charter, which US as founding member is obligated to uphold. It threatens Taiwan and South Korea, major US suppliers of electronics, nations with whom US has defense treaties and allies. “No one is helping us” is _our_ problem in the US that we’ve been perpetuating by electing cretins to Congress, on both sides of the isle.
Oh let me guess we need to send billions more? OK sure whatever
Blowing up Dams in War is against the Geneva Conventions and is a War Crime. Zelensky going down.
Funny the British did the exact same thing in ww2
@Brian Johnson Sure the Germans were bombing civilian populations so the gloves were off.
If Russia can blow up it’s own Pipelines Ukraine can blow up it’s own Dams.
Did you see the Russians do that?
@sam rut NO But I did see Ukraine shelling the Nuclear plant. Fins from US made rockets sticking out of the roof of the reactor.
Democrats got their war now America is broke and people keep dying. Win win for the war mongering left
Nevermind $100B per year America spent from 2001 to 2021 for “war on terror” in Iraq/Afghanistan? US is getting a better return on investment in Ukraine as Senator Graham (R-South Caroline) said. Russia is being eliminated from geopolitical scene. UN Charter is finally being enforced after allowing annexation of Crimea in 2014.
I don’t want any American Tax Dollars to pay for this!
I want all $200B+ in American tax money paid back with interest!
Aww, need a tissue snowflake?
Would you like American dollars to pay for conflicts that will occur when precedent is established that nuclear countries can take territory of non-nuclear countries by force? America has a lot of commitments to defend various allies around the world – Taiwan, Israel, South Korea. All of them are at risk from nuclear countries – China, North Korea, Iran (ok, no nukes there _yet_ )
It will be paid back… to Blackrock.
Could care less
Well that is suspect. The US government weighs in on a conflict they support
YET the world collectively keeps doing basically nothing to stop this psychopath dictator (Putin).
Just as it did during WWII
Putin was in WWII?
You realize that WWII was called a “World War” because _the world collectively_ fought in it.
Because they want to live in the USA
everyone wants to live in USA
@Igor M – even Russians? 🤯
@Therakus sure
Again the UN security council sits and wrings its hands while still handcuffed by Russia who has continued to render it unfit for purpose and now the optics of having a wanted war criminal sitting their making judgement on others , say no more !
Yes, please say no more. You are ridiculous.
Realistically the best UNSC can do is put some resolution against Russia up for vote, which would be vetoed by Russia. Granted that will still be a very strong test of where various UNSC members (specifically China when faced with vote) stand on the issue.
The un is completely irrelevant should go the way of the league of nations.
Ukraine isn’t doing enough to win this war…Stop wasting United States tax payers money…
Really? Since April 2022 Ukraine reduced occupied territories from 40% to 17%. If they were given all aid they asked for _when_ they asked for it they might do even better. As for US tax payer money, it’s not being spent “on Ukraine”. It’s being spent to uphold UN Charter and thus maintain US national interests in the world.
@Therakus no. You got that wrong. U.S. sends Ukraine more then two billion a month. Go back and check yourself.
RUSSIA DID NOT DO THIS!!!! This was Ukrainian enacted and fully backed by the treasonous Biden regime!!
Russia blew it.
You ain’t getting more money.
I love the comments from the trolls who have no idea that this has been going on since 2014 and the level of US involvement. Do some research for gods sake.
Obama is still at the controls
Once Britain seals the Brexit deal by blowing up the Channel tunnel we will see they too can blow up their own stuff.
Send another 140 Billion to Zelensky ,. NWO Prostitute Boy needs more shekels
Indeed. They’ve done well with the aid so far neutralizing “second army in the world”.
Zelensky ordered that
Oh keep crying
It is very clear America and NATO did this and are deflecting just like the Russian collusion scam was to deflect from foreign governments having Hillary’s entire server data, and also blaming China for Covid after America killed 6.7 million people with it.
Yeah just like how Russia blew up their own pipeline. The media has been lying about this war from the start. The corrupt Ukraine will fall
The Tesla CEO is a very shrewd businessman. He always takes the opportunity to go against the wind. Every time the Sino-US relations are tense, he always rushes to increase investment to curry favor with China and obtain the maximum commercial benefits from China for purpose to boost the Tesla stocks on the market . If Chinese companies betray their own country interests like him, well,they will never able to sell theirs cars in China market , because it will get nationwide boycott of their products, but the very smart CEO of Tesla understands that Americans doesn’t born with a backbone like Chinese has , so it will never happened in US.therefor, he can become the richest man in the world Today, but will he be the second Samsung to go through the same fate? At first, the Samsung were like Tesla, obtained temporary market concessions from China to facilitate increased investment in Chinese battery factories. After China has technology, will it be kicked out from Chinese market destiny like Samsung being now? could Tesla getting special exemption? what do you think?
I believe it’s the same people who blew up the Nord Stream pipeline
@silverhawk361 nope. The CIA
@silverhawk361 Russia didn’t blow up the pipeline….
@silverhawk361 yeah Russia blew up there own pipeline. Then the annexed a Ukrainian territory and flooded it.
You’re right. You’re never wrong
@silverhawk361 the problem with you Russiagaters is you’ll never admit you were wrong; even with all the proof and evidence. Everyone needs to check their egos and realize the truth. Only then will we be able to stand up to the tyranny as a cohesive block.
@Cho Biden Stop lying.
So what, we don’t have any global enforcement agencies, Ukraine can declare war on Russia.
The Ukrainians should be charged with WAR CRIMES.
Especially after killing two polish farmers
United Nations is a joke, they are worthless as are the members of it.
NBC do you think if you ignore the fbi, biden crime investigation that people wont be aware of whats going on? All part of suppressing the bad news for the dems and promoting the bad news for the republicans. No wonder the country blames nbc and msnbc for the ongoing division in the country. America is fully awre of your agenda.
I thought that those sanctions imposed by the Biden regime would have been effective by now. This illegal war has been going on for nearly 16 months.
Sanctions doesn’t evaporate massive pile of weapons Russia inherited from USSR. China and India don’t obey sanctions, that’s 1/3 of world’s population right there.
Jesus Christ is coming soon
Sure he is.
Ukraine did it it. Probably with our health. They were already selling it with our high Mars with our logistics help for weeks. That is why Russia retreated to the east side of the river. Ukwants to mess up in nuclear plant down stream
Did the USA blow that up too?
Yes. Biden did it personally, then hopped a stealth plane to Belgorod and peed in some elevators.
Be on the look out for the Media Hype Tautology In The Midst Of Chaos Propaganda.
They really need to reign in Ukraine. They have a recent track record for terrorist attacks. Thank god they were stopped when they attacked the nuclear plant.
Say what? The country is under aggression by Russia. There’s only _one_ responsible party here – Russia.
How about we focus on American problems!!!!!!!!!!!
Putin and the Military leaders are losing they know it and they are crazy enough to do it .”If they can’t have it no one can.”
Russia did it.
how you know
Don’t worry the useless but very expensive corrupt UN is on it
Putin never wore a face diaper.
Why is Russia, a terrorist garbage failed state allowed to sit on the Security Council. The UN is toothless.
The powers that run this planet have the ability to stop this war, yet they choose not to. Absolutely despicable.
Under what legal mechanism can “the powers that run this planet” stop this war? Do tell.
Is because they don’t have the power to stop 6,000 nuclear warheads…
What about the pipeline Biden blew up that drove the price of natural gas up?. Now that the debt ceiling has been raised, Biden Can send hundreds of billions to fix things Maybe trillions like Iraq and Afghanistan
Which pipeline are you talking about? Nordstream? That surely wasn’t Biden :D.
Sure would be nice to have a major news organization do an in depth report on what happened. Kind of like you did with Nordstream. Opps, I forgot, you didn’t do any in depth report on that either. But I guess you feel like you do enough, just being a propaganda wing of the US government narrative.
Ukraine wants another 40 billion, Biden wants his kick back
LOL TO GAIN POLITICAL AND WAR SUPPORT 😂🤣. AND ITS WORKING
Putin, is getting desperate now, hope this is all leading up to the end of this soon. Such a waste of life here, all inflicted for WHAT ??? Long live Ukraine, and freedom
Best thing that could happen is call to terms and negotiate… Ukraine is not going to win .. and Russia is reluctant to keep advancing from what it has been already annexed. Come to terms and end it .. there’s no win win.. here unless a larger war by NATO would have to be started .. Ukraine alone will not win back any territory.. they will lose little by little day by day.
“Reluctant” LOL. Russia is _incapable_ of advancing and has lost half of occupied territories since April 2022. There’s no negotiations here. Russia is in violation of UN Charter, The Budapest Memorandum, committed crimes against humanity. There’s no negotiation with that unless you want to legitimize Russia’s behavior and basically throw UN Charter out the window.
The Ukrainian people haven’t seen anything yet, wait to the west starts demanding payment for their aid, and dictating how they want them to govern themselves 😊
Russia’s paying reparations lol. Does US tell Germany how to govern themselves after rebuilding them from WW2?
@Therakus they did it to Britain 🇬🇧 check out the lend lease act
Terrorist Russian state keeps up war crimes against civilians & culture of Ukraine as Civilisation & Culture have died under PUTIN 🧠☠️🤡🐟🐖👍
What doesn’t make sense is why is the US helping destroy Ukraine? Russia would not of invaded if we said no to Ukraine joining NATO. One simple word could or orevented this whole thing. Im not for Russia or Ukraine but i know we helped start this.
Money and Power, my friend. We ended the Afghan War so that we could pour resources into this conflict. It’s all a scam to transfer money from the US taxpayer to the pockets of the “defense” contractors. That’s why, of the $120 billion in aid that Congress has sent to Ukraine, about 2/3rds of it have gone straight back to US weapon manufacturers. And as an added bonus the PNAC people, Newland, Blinkin, Austin, saw an opportunity for regime change in Moscow. The fact that a quarter million Ukrainians had to die is of little consequence to these psychopaths. There have been multiple chances to negotiate a peace settlement, but the NATO countries have scuppered all of them. They aren’t interested in peace, they fear it like the plague.
Why would Ukraine bomb its own regions potentially hurting its own people for years like come on that wouldn’t ever happen
Only thing I want to be clear in the coming days is a swift and decisive response to this terrorism! I dont mean just from Ukraine either!
What do you mean then? (Since you want to be clear…)
But, isn’t that what war is about? Destroying the livelihood of the other side? Why are they so shocked that they actually did that?
Most of the non political people hate this war. We hate our representatives and many world leaders now.
If only we had _some_ way to influence our elected representatives.
Please bow your head and say this prayer now 🙏🙏🙏
“Carry our prayers up to Gods throne, that
the mercy of the Lord may quickly come
and lay hold of the beast,
the serpent of old, Satan
and his demons, casting him
in chains into the abyss, so that
he can no longer seduce the nations.
Thank you for everything
CREATOR OF THE UNIVERSE,
LORD GOD. Amen.” 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
If you can’t look and remember the words, just read and pray them while you have your head bowed and your hands in front of your face 🙏☺ please say it now seriously
You know Putin was aiming for that plant anyway he could get to it and he doesn’t care how he wrecks it and how much damage and harm he causes, the more, the better as far as he is concerned.
Oh yes, we can believe NBC
And our weak leaders will sit back and do nothing. Thoughts and Prayers.
Why should they this is a regional issue.
Imagine if this worthless, evil government & their equally worthless, evil propagandists actually cared about Americans instead of Europe’s border wars with Russia!
America is being bankrupted in order to fund this stupid border war!
Give me my money back. No one supports ukraine.
Russia is over, Ukraine will kick all Russia out of Ukraine territory.
Ukraine is victory days soon.
Ukraine go home without Russia 😊😊
How will this affect the ability to cool the six nuclear reactors at the NPP. What areas are having nuclear evacuation drills ?? 🤦♀️😱🤪😩
Russia has must to answer for it’s Crime over War.
Charge PUTIN!!!!
End him!!!!
Believe nothing you hear and half of what you see.
If you engage in terrorist tactics, you no longer are entitled to a position on the security council. Putin has made Russia a pariah state.
I’m getting credits to watch this video. I’m getting credits to watch this video. I’m getting credits to watch this video.
Soon there will just be the land of Ukraine…nothing else…
We all remember the test tube , after which we began to erase Iraq from the face of the earth
🧳China brings prosperity, investment and unconditional help to all the nations of the world. The British, France and Unite States bring weapons, war and destruction to all the nations of the world and after the destruction of your country the monarchy the elite used the USA-British-France-ARMY to secure the robbery of your country natural resources.🕥
Proxy Puppet High Heels Zelenskyy going scorched Earth. Very sad for innocent in Ukraine. ☹😢cz
War criminals you are wrong people my lord coming soon
