Where are you coming from here? Sure you don’t believe my brother in law eye witness the way I do, that’s fine but are you saying you don’t think Russian soldiers and missiles have killed hundreds of Ukrainian civilians during the invasion? And as you already said many civilians have fled abroad, my brother in law did have that option it was just plain foolishness that meant he tried to ride it out in Bucha before he was rescued by Ukrainian soldiers. And if I had been Putin and I wanted to safeguard the Russian speakers in Donbas then I would have given everyone of them a visa and an apartment in Russia, I assure you it would have been easier and several billion dollars cheaper than his invasion…

I heard the details of the Bucha massacre first hand from a none Ukrainian relative who witnessed it first hand so I am as confident as I can possibly be with that one… I am also very much not in favour of bombing Iran or Gaza. I have a strict not in favour of murder or war whoever does it stance… the idea that any oppressed Russian could easily have popped across the border to Russia to be safe is just my own logic admittedly I have no good knowledge or what may or not have been occurring in eastern Ukraine before.

Yes I don’t think that happened, if Russian people had been oppressed in Eastern Ukraine then they would have moved just several miles east into the open arms of Russia and been safe. They would hardly have stayed if they felt in danger. I do know someone who made the mistake of staying put in Bucha when the Russians arrived and saw them murder civilians in the street.

thanks, that’s comprehensive, I recommend it at least :-)

I agree it is great, but am I the only one running Opensuse MicroOS?
