You mean you haven’t been following what’s been going on in Ukraine for the past 2-1/2 years?

Oh, that’s right — you rely on Russian news, from state-controlled Russian media. So you may not have heard about all of this:

Or the thousands upon thousands of these . . .

. . . left behind by your Russian troops in places like Kharkiv, and Bucha, and Mariupol, and Bakhmut, and Avdiivka, and so many more.

*. *. *

And now you’re wondering why this is happening to you:

And I’m sorry — truly sorry — if these pictures offend you. And I am so very sorry that the good Russian people are miserable and frightened because of the fact that the people of Ukraine are now — after 2-1/2 years of indescribable suffering — bringing your government’s war back onto your territory, where it started.

It is not fair for innocent civilians — women, children, grandparents — of any country to have to pay the price for the horrors inflicted by their leaders.

But the Russian people need to know the truth. This is all the result of Moscow’s “special military operation,” begun on February 24, 2022, because of Vladimir Putin’s insane compulsion to become “Tsar of all the Russias” . . . to take back lands that no longer belong to Russia, and some that never did . . .

. . . and ultimately, to rule the world.

You need to know.

Just sayin’ . . .
