1:09 Didn’t NATO attack Iraqs energy infrastructure?

"That's terrorism" says the American reporter.
Unless America does it to Iraq and Syria. Then it's not terrorism.

[madpatriot]

It's called siege war fare, we do the same with our sanctions, by bringing misery and lack of goods, just look at what we have done to Cuba, Venezuela and many other countries

Sickening how Leader of Ukraine sits in a bunker while being bombed yet civilians are left above ground yet it ain’t their war! Sick B

If this means Ukraine’s winning I wonder what losing looks like 😂

Ukraine was a part of the Soviet Union from 1922 until 1991. That was not a problem and did not threaten the US or Europe or NATO. The US has so far given Ukraine 60 billion dollars to fight this war with no end in sight. Should Ukraine survive the war with a part of its original borders then US will have to spend billions to rebuild Ukraine.

Seems familiar... Like when the US did "shock and awe" in Iraq!

What We American should do, move the White House to the Boarder, with No fence. Let them deal with the problems. See how fast a Wall goes up .

[marcuslegion]

But you told us they're all out of weapons 😂😂

[dirkdiggler]

Oh look..they're winning🙄 send them more billions anyway.

[muzwot]

If this act by Russia is 'genocide', as is being claimed - Remember that the US did precisely the same in Iraq, and in Basra -where they cut-off the water supply causing cholera and the deaths of tens of thousands of children.

[carolbonnell]

I'm sure the mothers of those young dead soldiers have different opinions.

[philboy]

Tens of billions of dollars in Aid. No generators?

[p_]

It’s a new way of sanctioning 💪 Go Russia 💪🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺

[maryfragain]

This is what ANYONE leading a war will do

[pamela]

I figured one of his own people would have taken out Putin by now. Please do so without harming the innocent, brainwashed citizens of that beautiful country. Who will be the world's hero? 🇺🇦

[fritzvolz]

Ukraine has received enough money from the USA; to buy all its residents generators, and enough fuel to power them for years, where is the money really going?

[tiadiad]

I ask myself, as I watch this...especially during the war, during winter, in Ukraine: "What is a gerbil? What is it???!!"

[duane]

Why hasn't NATO given them adequate air defense. Are they just going to continue to sit on their hands and do nothing or very little to speak of. Why do they expect the US to take care of the world. They need to do their part and get good air defense into Ukraine as soon as possible. Come on... They've known about this since the war began.

Selensky is a comedian. Not a president.
