    Be cautious about Meduza - they are pseudo-opposition and working for Kremlin as well. Even when they provide some truthful info, they are playing theatrics. They can turn 180 on command

    Stoned Jesus is a great Ukrainian band. I highly doubt they’d be down with satanic Nazis.

      This seems unrelated to the article you are posting on.

        Or you’re simply not reading the articles you’re commenting on:

        > The propaganda guide is even more aggressive on the subject of Ukraine. Its authors refer to the Ukrainian government as an “apostate regime” that’s waging a war against the Ukrainian Orthodox Church in order to “destroy the spiritual ties of brother nations.” The document does not mention that a Russian shelling attack in Odesa last week destroyed Ukraine’s historic Transfiguration Cathedral.

          Okay, give you that one.

          I’ll not be reading replies

          Hmm?

      If we hypothetically assume this is true for a moment, then consider:

      1. No SAMs would have been fired if there were no Russian missiles attacking Odesa, and thus indirectly it’s still Russia’s fault.

      2. The Russian-designed and manufactured S-300 (and presumably the closely-related S-400) are dangerous to use over populated areas if they have no working safe abort or engagement minimums safety features, therefore they are even more dogshit than we thought they were. So, Russia is still at fault here for supplying unsafe SAMs, and no-one should buy any Russian SAMs in future if they care at all about their civilian population. If we assume that the anonymous Twitter source is indeed correct, then this is probably why Russia isn’t saying anything about it.

      I’m sure once the war is over we’ll get some proper analysis from people with actual warhead ballistics knowledge though, and not just some anonymous propaganda.

      @zephyrvs

      Except from the fact that your comment has nothing to do with the article’s content as @lazynooblet already said, I’d like to raise a question: Is “circumstantial evidence” the new term for alternative facts? I mean, as you are “looking for the truth” in “a fog of war”, I don’t see what kind of truth you’re after.
