Why are the photos taken at a distance
Because the camera that captured them was at a distance.
Just a guess, maybe Ukranians didn't want to go somewhere, or send their drone somewhere that could easily be blown up.  They don't train them like they do in Russia.


and why are no bodies visible?
Probably some in the tanks that still have their lids on. And the guys that were in the tanks that got blown open are no longer a single piece of human anymore.  I suppose it's reasonable to assume that some could've ended up down the river also.

Russian culture is already being erased from countries all over the world.  The world is largely disgusted by Russia right now.  The only silver lining really is that Putin has brought great Unity to the world, the kind we haven't experienced in a very long time, probably since the actual Victory day when WW2 ended.

As the good Vladimir said, "very soon there will be two Victory Days, and someone will not have even one left."
To dot the i's, can you please tell us what is your opinion about the UPA (Ukrainian Insurgent Army) during World War II and Stepan Bandera? Are they heroes or war criminals?
To cross the t's.  Thoughts on Stalin?

No. We work since 2017 and paid even much bigger ammounts many times. As I said before we will pay this winning either if it was fair. But now there is no any proof of it's fairness and we are going to wait for the investigation results.

That's not how it works.  The game isn't provably fair.   You pay unless there is proof the player somehow cheated.  There is no proof.  The provider investigated, they said there's no evidence of cheating.  It's been months.  Times up.  Look what you've done to your reputation.  Honestly I'm surprised you're still trying.  If you want any hope of fixing your mistakes, you need to pay the player immediately.  Even if there's a 95% chance the player cheated, you still need to pay them.  Otherwise you send the message this could happen to anyone, and think about how fucked up what you're doing is if you're wrong and the player is innocent.

By the way, Wazden is offered at several sites that offer instant cash outs.  As in, I could go hit the jackpot on the same game, for the same amount, and have the funds in my wallet in minutes.  Think about that.

Video
00:40 The shadows in the very beginning of the scene are in front of people
00:45 In the shooting scene, the shadows are already shifted to the left of the people, at a noticeable angle. But the CNN report gives the impression that only a few seconds elapsed between these two scenes.




Looks like the ground is sloped.  Shadows make sense with perspective of second angle when you watch it.

Russia Pulls Back From Another Big City, Kharkiv
The withdrawal represents one of Russia’s more significant setbacks since its retreat from Kyiv. Finland’s declaration that it will join NATO is a further blow to the Kremlin.

Moscow is withdrawing forces from around Kharkiv, Ukraine’s second-largest city, where it has been losing ground, Ukrainian and Western officials say, in one of Russia’s biggest setbacks since its retreat from Kyiv last month.

Officials say the Kremlin will probably redirect troops to the southeast, where it is said to be bolstering its forces in Izium, a city it captured last month. Izium, about two hours southeast of Kharkiv, has become a crucial operations center for Russia, which is said to be making gains in the eastern Donbas region, where fighting has been relentless.

One of President Vladimir V. Putin’s stated war aims — stopping NATO expansion — became an even more remote possibility on Thursday as Finland’s leaders declared unequivocally that it would join the alliance. Sweden is likely to be next. Russian officials said they would consider the countries’ entry into NATO a security threat.

Russia will be forced to take retaliatory steps, both of a military-technical and other nature, in order to stop threats to its national security arising.


So now even if Russia is doing steps to protect its national security, you consider it threat?

LOL

Do you think Russia is threatening Ukraine yet?

Finaland joining NATO would really illustrate how incredibly stupid it was for Russia to invade Ukraine.

Is this part of the parade?
The parade in Moscow took place yesterday as usual, except that they did not begin to disperse the clouds for the air show. Putin did not declare a general mobilization and the Crimean bridge was also not damaged, so I have nothing to please you with.

No, I meant the one in Kyiv.  The one that would be naive and foolish to think wouldn't happen.  Why didn't they have one there?  That's rhetorical, of course.  The reason is because the Russian military lost that battle.  I'm just curious how much you're willing to twist yourself to not admit it.  It's tough to deflect such an obvious black and white situation. 



Ukrainians will be fighting Russian aggressors to death.
Well, that means they'll die.

Yes, Captain Obvious, aggressors will die. That's the whole point.
In Kyiv on May 9 2022, a traditional parade will be held in honor of the victory of the USSR over Nazi Germany. It is naive and foolish to doubt it.

Why would Putin's psychos send a crane to the Theatre at Mariupol? Is there anything interesting to cover that they would need rebuilding in all urgency??

I think they're getting ready for the May 9 parade and don't want the rubble to ruin the TV show.

Also the smell is probably not too pleasant so they need to move the bodies out to one of those mass graves in the suburbs.

For those who missed it:

  https://www.bitchute.com/video/lRscm9iNwOWx/

A fair number of the apparently wildly exaggerated 'bodies in pits' seem to have been those of Azov human shield civilians who got so thirsty that they failed to comply with directives to stay put in the residential building basements, and got into line-of-site of Ukranian snipers on the tops of those apartment buildings.

The 'stories' from Western media came from 'Maxar' (CIA) satellite images (even when they had no satellites over the area at the time) and did NOT show pits if anyone had bothered to open their eyes, but instead exactly what Bartlett saw when she visited the site in person.  Graves.  The "30 meter wide pits" came from the 'mayor' of Mariupol who was apparently taking a break from having coke fueled gay sex orgies with Zelensky somewhere in Poland most likely.


You know, the usual stuff that you do after you bombard the city for two months and leave it without power, water, food, medical facilities, etc. Replace the road signs, paint some curbs, erect a statue for a meme, and call it victory.




The 'meme' of chasing out the Nazis in WW-II I guess you mean.  (I left the image in-situ because it is amusing.)

Russian strategy seems to be to go into areas, hand out some food, vacate to let the ultra-nationalist jack-boots exercise their vengeance on the population ensuring that the population will never support 'ukraine' again, then 'normalize' the area as a client state.  Brilliant, and quite awful when one things about it.

If I had to guess, I would say that Zelensky is basically on Russia's side to make sure that the end-game works out to Russia's liking.  That being a relatively friendly population who are somewhat grateful to be saved by whoever comes along to save them...and a lot fewer ultra-nationalists.

As for the Western arms pouring in, from what I've heard most of them are being sold to third-parties before they are delivered.  It's just a money laundering hub as has been the case for a long time and especially since the color revolution of 2014.  If the arms even touch Ukrainian soil is is a formality, and it wouldn't surprise me to find out that in a lot of cases they didn't even do that.  Whoever takes over the Russian client state will probably end up with a shiny new arsenal of weapons that did make it into caches on Ukrainian soil.  Some say it will be 'the Jews' who are looking for a 'new Israel'.  Time will tell.

...

Rather a moot point. Of course thrombosis is rare. Thrombosis was an unforeseen consequence from the alleged Safe and Effective™ vaccine. FDA uses VAERS, something only the conspiratards used, to demonstrate negative health outcomes of a COVID-19 vaccine.

The vaccine clinical trials did not offer long term data; it was irresponsible to suggest every 5+ year old receive a COVID-19 vaccine.

By the way, therapeutics get pulled from the market all the time for causing severe negative health outcomes or death. You don't talk about mass vaccination and make the concession that some portion of the population will die as a result of the vaccine as a silver lining. That's insanity. When therapeutics are causing people to die, they get pulled from the market immediately. It's not a success story that *only* a small portion of the population died as a result of vaccination.

Mass vaccination was an experiment. No reason to get vaccinated if you've already had COVID. No reason for the young and healthy to get vaccinated. They knew that. Anyone who had seen the data was fully aware.

Hopefully you're wrong and the overwhelming consensus among the most qualified doctors/scientists/public health experts  in the world are right.

Breaking: FDA limits EUA on J&J vaccine citing blood clot concerns.

https://www.fda.gov/news-events/press-announcements/coronavirus-covid-19-update-fda-limits-use-janssen-covid-19-vaccine-certain-individuals

Not shocking at all, FDA cites VAERS (the so called unreliable self reporting system) as their evidence for increased thrombosis risk according to their fact sheet: https://www.fda.gov/media/146304/download

"Safe and effective," the experts alleged, without long term safety data or any analysis of the relative risk of COVID-19 for the young and healthy versus the relative risk of potential side effects.

I'm sure anti vaxxers will jump all over this.  And also skip this part:

"The FDA has determined that the reporting rate of TTS is 3.23 per million doses of vaccine administered and the reporting rate of TTS deaths is 0.48 per million doses of vaccine administered."

(There have been about 3,000 deaths per million in the US)

People are made to think that deescalation in Ukraine is now literally in no ones best interest.

May be not in your or Putin's best interest, but if you had bothered to read what I said... remove the tanks -> deescalation. Tanks invaded Ukraine, Javelins did not invade Russia.

Bravo, right so Russia removing all tanks is the only acceptable "deescalation", must've been really tough to propose such radical thought? Thanks for making my point, currently escalation is in everyone's best interest, so the war must go on.


Quote
“In a dialogue with the United States and its allies, we will insist on working out specific agreements that would exclude any further NATO moves eastward and the deployment of weapons systems that threaten us in close vicinity to Russian territory,” Putin said.
He charged that “the threats are mounting on our western border,” with NATO placing its military infrastructure closer to Russia and offered the West to engage in substantive talks on the issue, adding that Moscow would need not just verbal assurances, but “legal guarantees.”
“We aren't demanding any special conditions for ourselves and realize that any agreements must take interests of Russia and all Euro-Atlantic countries into account,” Putin said. “A calm and stable situation must be ensured for all and is needed for all without exclusion.”
Putin's statement came a day after he sternly warned NATO against deploying its troops and weapons to Ukraine, saying it represented a red line for Russia and would trigger a strong response.

Medieval thinking 100%.

Again, Putin telling the people of other countries what they can and cannot do in the name of his safety. Again, Putin telling all countries that they cannot join NATO because he says so. This is Putin considering himself ruler of the old USSR and the one who can tell Europe what can and cannot do. It is no longer the case and, after this war, he will be lucky if other "territories" do not start revolting in view of the inefficacy of its army.


US pretty much said that Russia is not allowed to have national security interests

On the contrary, Russia has security interests, Ukraine has security interests (even more now), Finland has security interests, Sweden, Lithuania, Letonia,... all have security interests... the question is why Putin's interest are better than anyone else's. Is it because he's got a better army / more power? Now that argument seems to have a few leaks.

...

And we're back to hypocrisy and double standards. Due to their proximity, US can have national security interests in Cuba, totally normal for NATO and Australia to have national interests in Solomon Islands etc... But why should Russia have national interests that spans to the country directly on it's border that speaks the same language and was part of the same country?? Then we go into, all countries are equal but some are more equal than others, and the ones that clear some imaginary level of democracy/freedom are allowed to absorb countries bordering other superpowers with beneficial offers, while others are not. Great policy, guaranteed to result in wars, so here we are.

Coming up next, everyone acts super surprised when China starts "special operations" in Taiwan after US decides to add Taiwan to it's "defense" pact. US will also be willing to supply Taiwan with any and all weapons till the last standing Taiwanese.

Any comment on why you believe the Pope is wrong as well, in seeing how such policies cannot possibly lead to peace?

Edit: wording

If you're going to use whataboutism, I think the United States committing genocide against the Native Americans would be more appropriate. Also, remember when you defend Russias actions by comparing them to those of other countries, you're also defending those other countries actions.

My guess is that if they just leave Kiev alone, Kiev will align with the Russia/China/BRICS/every-other-sensible-country block naturally since the all the West has to offer is sexual degeneracy and 'sustainable' anti-science economic suicide.  At least once the petro-dollar system completely collapses in a way that nobody can miss.

You say a lot of dumb things.  A lot.  But thinking that if Russia just 'leaves Kiev alone' then they will just naturally align with Russia is just...incredible.

So this was back on December 1, 2021 and we all know how that turned out, US pretty much said that Russia is not allowed to have national security interests in any country and NATO will expand anywhere it wishes. Because freedoms and such (except where it's not convenient for US like Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Bahrain, Myanmar, Turkey etc...) \

Actually what US said was "No, we will not tell another country that they can never ever join our alliance no matter what."

Semantics only work on internal electorate, so each side can sell the news to their people, however they can phrase it best to them. Reply on international relations level was clear, Putin's concerns were ignored and he's made out into a fool who shouts hollow threats. With the current massive NATO "military exercise" my outlook is even bleaker than before. In fact we might've passed the point of no return for Ukraine. Russia made it clear that their red line was crossed. The failure in diplomacy is when it comes to a point where a war becomes more beneficial than peace to all relevant parties. Russia has people and indicated that its more than willing to sacrifice a lot for Ukraine, in fact Putin's ratings have gone up, and an underestimated enigma of Russians has always been their willingness to come together and unite the worse things got for them. US is totally fine littering non NATO country with weapons, and it can come out of this with another Marshall Plan for Europe to reestablish it's dominance and reset it's financial system. China will be more than willing to send a train full of gold to Russia, to kick this dumpster fire off, EU has no say in this (that's why Macron and Scholz running around like headless chickens). Russia declares full war and gets Ukraine, US becomes a saver of Europe once again, China enjoys stability and quietly pushes its agenda in the temporary vacuum. A shame really    

It's not semantics, Putin literally demanded the no other country be allowed to join an alliance that he wasn't a member of.  Obviously an alliance that was established to defend against the Soviets isn't going to let Russia dictate the rules.

Ironically Putins response has made NATO and Europe more united than ever and to some countries made joining NATO all the more appealing.
