“Who would have declared such a war on us in Moscow?”
After six consecutive days of drone attacks on the Moscow region this week, one would think the shock of sudden late-night explosions might compel some Russians to consider what Ukrainian civilians have endured during 550 days of relentless Russian attacks.
Instead, some residents near the Russian capital have taken to social media to vent about the inconvenience of being woken up in the middle of the night, question why the “international community” isn’t coming to their rescue, and blame Ukrainian “terrorists” for targeting civilian areas. (Never mind that Moscow has repeatedly attacked residential areas in Ukraine with Iranian-made Shahed drones.)
No injuries have been reported in the recent string of attacks, and Russian officials claim to have shot down most of the drones that they say caused only “minor damage” to a building in Moscow City and several broken windows elsewhere. Kyiv has not confirmed or denied involvement in the drone strikes.
Russian media widely covered the attacks, airing interviews with residents who showed off their broken windows.
“It was scary to go up to the window,” said one man recounting his shock to wake up and find his window shattered. “This is the first time anything like this has happened to me.”
Separately, he told Deutsche Welle, “At first, there was panic. I thought the building had been hit by a shell.”
“It’s very scary. What if it hits the house next time?” another resident told DW, noting that she has a young child in the home. “Who would have declared such a war on us in Moscow?”
I mean, Putin brags about it, lol. Could you explain what you mean by this?
Are you saying that our corporate sponsors want to blame Putin for our dumb Republicans or are you saying that corporate sponsors are responsible for our dumb Republicans?
The latter, corporations sponsor both our major political parties and are at the root of both dumb Republicans and misguided Democrats. Different corporations, different reasons in each individual case, but like bacteria all wiggling around randomly it’s moving like one big infection on society.
Nah, only one side performed a failed coup. Misguided dems are only loud and annoying for the most part.
And Republicans were only abrasive until Regan made it legal for news agencies to lie to people. Evil takes many forms, not all of which are so overt as a horde of useful idiots storming Congress. There are masses of useful idiots earnestly believing they’re doing good every day because someone they trust told them something that in turn was told them by someone they trust.
Absolutely true but there is only one side performing a coup, trying to dumb down Americans and take away their healthcare rights, actual healthcare, sexual rights and minority rights as well as so much more. We are not the 1% the Republicans are helping, we are the 99% that they’re getting the money from to help the 1%
Please, rednecks don’t need corporations to be rednecks, they were stringing people up for being “uppity” long before Rupert Murdoch made it mainstream.
