    Yet the Russian approach to urban warfare so far is to make urban areas less urban. See Mariupol.

    They are far more indiscriminate in their use of force but there is a big difference between what is happening in Mauripol versus leveling it with a WMD.

    Russia as we know it is done. This proxy war is the best thing the US has done geopolitically since the proxy war with the USSR in Afghanistan in the 80s. That war brought down the Soviet Union and the Warsaw Pact. This one will bring down Putin.
    Eastern Europe will join Nato and/or the EU and Russia will be an island. They can eventually join with modern Europe or not, but they will lose all influence not related to commodity exports.

    This is a video game - it's not real footage...

    CBS News is reporting that 350 Ukrainian troops from the Mariupol steel plant have been transported to Russian controlled territory. I presume that means they surrendered and are now POW.

    See it was already posted on this page.

    This is an easy fix, we need the fairness doctrine back and we need to not allow TV stations to be labeled NEWS when they are entertainment.....every opinion piece should say OPINION across the top.

    And on social media they are responsible for what is posted on their sites, they should label FAKE items as fake, don't stop the spread but label them fake, or wrong.
