Was there really a massacre at Bucha?

Original Article

Posted By: Magnante, 4/9/2022 9:04:44 AM

Accepting the fake claims of a massacre is as bad as or even worse than denying a real one. (snip) The Russian military left Bucha, Ukraine on March 30, 2022. On March 31, Bucha mayor Anatoly Fedoruk triumphantly declared Bucha liberated. On April 1, a video shot from a moving car appeared on Twitter, showing 7 (maybe 8) dead bodies on the Yablonska Street in Bucha. By April 3, the number of bodies found on the streets of Bucha had grown to 20, and mass graves were shown. Kyiv claimed that the Russian military had executed between 280 and 410 civilians

If the Democrats and the MSM are pushing these stories, be very, very skeptical of all of them.

Haven't we learned from two years of COVIDS hysteria? Maybe NATO's next commander could be named Fauci. I don't believe anyone about anything in his war. Neither side is above lying...and both sides are practiced in doing so. We already know about how the global media operates. As newspaper mogul William Randolph Hearst famously told his man in Cuba, "You furnish the pictures and I'll furnish the war."

It is strange to me that so much infrastructure remains in Ukraine. Putin doesn't want to destroy the country but only for it to capitulate. Shock and awe total war it is not. And, as usual, the West has underestimated Putin as he was obviously well prepared for the economic consequences of the invasion. Our intelligence agencies are either worthless or consorting. Being a cynic I can't help but think the WEF is behind the entire operation. To paraphrase the final line if the Magnificent Seven "...the bankers always win"

Read the article. It’s not long. This is what I have believed. I couldn’t understand the mayor’s “celebrating” the liberation of Bucha on March 31, only to be followed by news of massacres and “mass graves” (the truth about those is worth the time it takes to read - a cultural thing we had no knowledge of + the inability to bury the dead in wartime in individual graves, no matter the cause(s) of their deaths… I’ve had enough propaganda.

You can’t believe anything either side tells you. I wouldn’t put anything past the Russians, but the Ukrainians are expert propagandists too, and thoroughly corrupt.

Russian troops since the Czar's time, and throughout WW2, and into the Chechen war have been widely known for their vicious brutality towards civilians. Nothing unexpected, nothing new.

I've seen this same "news" posted elsewhere, nearly word for word, so this is just a "cut and paste" job. Speaking of propaganda. At one time Lucianne was a site for great conservative views and intelligent debate. Now, with war in Europe, it's become a happy home for the Putin apologists. Next up... the four million plus Ukrainian refugees, fleeing the Russian invasion, are just crisis actors, or CGI, or fake fake fake.

#10, Yeah, I've noticed that too. What explains all the Putin support? BDS (Biden Derangement Syndrome)? People who think that the enemy-of-my-enemy is my friend? Putin's troll army, all posting from their basements in St. Petersberg? Alt-right neo-fascists who actually admire a murderous thug who poisons and murders his political opponents? I'm truly mystified by all the "I'll take Russia over Ukraine" and "I'll take Putin over Biden" posts. Or is it just that there's no accounting for taste, and that, taken en mass, these people are dumb as rocks?

Very often, when companies go woke, it turns out that the wokeness is a cover for changing market forces. That is, they're not alienating traditional demographics; they're reflecting that their money is coming from new demographics. When it comes to Hollywood and the NBA, for example, the big bucks are coming from China, not America. And when it comes to Disney, the main profit center isn't children; it's young adults who, Peter Pan–like, refuse to grow up. The brilliant Daniel Greenfield makes this point in an article entitled "Disney's Business Model is Turning Kids into Dysfunctional Adults: Its customer base isn't kids. It's messed up adults."

America’s Founding Fathers at the Constitutional Convention knew any form of government they created would become corrupt. (snip) known abuses that would arise were the reason for the Amendment process being able to take two distinct routes. One through Congress, before proposed Amendments reached the states. The other was strictly through the states, giving Congress no role other than calling for a Convention of the States. The Founders, in essence, gave a third option they did not have when rebelling against Britain. The power of the states to curtail governmental abuse.

I recently took my twelve-year-old for his annual check-up. The process was rather routine, except for two distinct differences. First, he needed three vaccinations, all of which he received and second, I wrote “No” across a form that the nurse handed him without my permission. You see, the nurse bypassed me and handed my son two pieces of paper and a pen. She asked him to answer two questions on one and then the entirety of the next. She then proceeded to leave the room. Not once did she ask me to look at the forms prior to handing them to my son

Barack Obama was at the White House yesterday, making it clear, as did others at the reception held in Obama’s honor, that Biden’s presidency is over. Watching Obama suck the oxygen out of the room made me wonder if Obama is planning a comeback, something he can easily do. (snip) The reception in Obama’s honor, though, hinted that the event’s real purpose was to signal to Democrat apparatchiks that Biden is now shark chum. The chumming process began when Obama referred to Biden as the “Vice President,” adding, after a long pause, “that was a joke.”

Donald Trump Just Made an Absolutely Head-Scratching Endorsement 30 replies

Donald Trump held a rally in North Carolina on Saturday night, but it wasn’t the normal theatrics and hilarity that the former president delivers that made the biggest impression. Rather, it was an endorsement that seems to have come out of nowhere, and I’ll go so far as to say it may be his worst ever (yes, worse than Morgan Ortega) — at least as a Republican politician. Honestly, I know some people take umbrage with anyone ever questioning Trump’s decision-making, but this is truly a head-scratching moment. I’m not sure offering endorsements to people based on them being on TV for a long time is the best strategy.

National Review’s Kevin Williamson is urging conservatives to divorce, or at least, separate, for a time, from the Republican Party -- that is, from the Donald Trump-led Republican Party. In a recent column, Williamson claims that what he calls “sensible conservatives” twenty years ago or so “could take a realistic, instrumental view of the GOP and find it reasonably useful for our ends.” But not today. Not when the Republican Party consists of “vulgar” populists and “infantile” nationalists who loathe free trade, free speech, the U.S. military, and libertarians.

Take the jab or the boy gets it. That’s essentially the message the Cleveland Clinic is sending to the parents of 9-year-old Tanner Donaldson, who will soon need a kidney transplant. He was born with a rare birth defect, posterior urethral valves (PUV), a condition that caused irreversible kidney damage in utero and resulted in stage 4 chronic kidney disease (CKD). Dane Donaldson, Tanner’s father, told PJ Media that his son’s kidney function is currently between 15-20%, but his numbers have been ticking up lately, so they feel he is nearing the time when a transplant will be necessary. They’ve known since birth that Tanner would eventually need the transplant

A government watchdog is demanding the US Attorney probing Hunter Biden in Delaware investigate tens of millions in anonymous donations from China to the University of Pennsylvania, where an academic center is named for his father, President Biden. The Ivy League college raked in a total of $54.6 million from 2014 through June 2019 in donations from China, including $23.1 million in anonymous gifts starting in 2016, according to public records. Most of the anonymous donations came after the university announced in February 2017 that it would create the Penn Biden Center for Diplomacy and Global Engagement.

Saturday, the world found out that British Prime Minister Boris Johnson was in Ukraine. Making a surprise visit to Ukraine’s capital, Prime Minister Boris Johnson of Britain on Saturday promised more military equipment and missiles to Ukraine, underscoring his country’s role as Europe’s most enthusiastic supporter of the Ukrainian president, Volodymyr Zelensky. Britain will provide 120 armored vehicles as well as new anti-ship missile systems to the Ukrainian military, Downing Street said in a statement issued to coincide with the prime minister’s meeting with Mr. Zelensky. That is in addition to £100 million, or about $130 million, worth of military equipment that Mr. Johnson pledged to Ukraine on Friday.

Last week Cook Political Report posted an analysis of the House midterm election which said “Both sides see the possibility of a Red Tsunami in 2022.” But the rest of the Cook piece argued that because of redistricting changes 2022 can’t possibly equal a tsunami like the one in 1994 when Republicans won 54 seats. There are simply not as many competitive seats in the House as there used to be. So the author ultimately predicted a more modest wave: Every metric we use to analyze the political environment — the president’s approval rating, the mood of the electorate, the enthusiasm gap — all point to huge gains
