Russia kidnaps children, uses rape as a weapon of war, mass murders civilians, and openly says the goal is expanding their empire. If you're asking why that matters, you're actively supporting their actions.

Ballistic missiles with 500kg warheads fired into completely civilian areas NOT at night, but at lunch time, to sow maximum terror and kill count.
This is Russian culture in its purist form.

I don’t think there has been a missile strike in Ukraine with a more clear video that can positively ID the missile involved. It is 100% a Kh-101.
Yet this is the one the Russian government decides to quadruple down on.

It’s the guilty who ask for immunity. It’s the complicit who cheer for it.

Don't lose sight of the big picture.
Returning Crimea to Ukrainian control is not only a matter of principle that would restore rights to millions under Kremlin occupation.

As was the case in Kherson, they're preparing to loot the museum before they flee.
russian occupiers in Crimea are preparing to take all museum collections from the peninsula to russia.
The heads of museum institutions of Crimea received a letter from the so-called "Ministry of Culture of the Republic of Crimea".
Managers were ordered to prepare museum valuables for "evacuation", that is, for theft.

Meanwhile in Russia: Vladimir Solovyov insisted that Russia's "sanitary zone" should stretch all the way to the Atlantic. He compared Ukrainians to "bed bugs" that have to be eradicated, in order for Ukraine to be "cleansed."

Q: Russia's army is 15% larger and they have reinforced the 20% of Ukrainian territory that they hold. Is the Republican Party responsible for those setbacks?
Mitch McConnell: Yeah, we took too long. All the Democrats were for Ukraine.

I would recommend Western politicians to watch Putin's address to the Federal Assembly. It becomes clear who Russia is fighting against and what the next steps will be. 1/12

“This is the first Oscar in Ukrainian history, And I’m honored,” said the Oscar-winning director of "20 Days in Mariupol. "But probably I will be the first director on this stage who will say I wish I had never made this film. I wish to be able to exchange this to Russia never attacking Ukraine, never occupying our cities.” variety.com/2024/film/news/2…
