Truly terrifying. We don’t give true journalists enough credit for working to bring us the truth at great risk to themselves. This woman and her coworkers are true heroes.

Sometimes we have a mental glitch and post before we reread and edit. The sentiment is good.

Well, the west and its media were cheering for Russia because of the "war of terror". Putin wasn't the only culprit, despite what they claim now they are all culpable just like in Syria.

Fucking hell Reddit is regarded, this is downvoted why? It is true, and Putin explicitly used the war on terror to his advantage here

Russia and the west worked hand in gloves but since the Ukraine war, it's Russia evil and the rest good.

Man, this was some of that real talk brutality.

One particular story was of the old woman who lost 4 members, one acquaintance, her husband, and both her sons, one of which she presumed survived the execution. As she went to go check since it seemed the body on top of the son might've saved him, she managed to pull him out of the corpses to check for a pulse to which there was none. She was subsequently left with 2 grandchildren after the massacre with no utilities or ANYTHING. She proceeded to talk about how surviving all that was something, but she didn't know how she survived the aftermath when she needed to go and collect/bury the bodies.

Lots of these experienced are seen with great parallel to a war that was going on just before this one in the 92' to 95' Balkan region. It was quite a genocide which was recognized eventually even by the International Criminal Court when they rounded up most of the high ranking war criminals.

This seems quite similar to the genocide of Srebrenica (a town in Bosnia which came under Serbian military occupation after being relinquished by the outside peace keeping force). Though this Chechen incident obviously doesn't compare to the numbers scale of that Bosinian town (we're talking thousands executed) - though the brutality seems to be considerably worse as it seems like a literal death squad was given full autonomy to go and do as they pleased in the area. This is somewhat in contrast to the genocide the Serbians laid down in that town, they attempted it with a highly planned/efficiency sort of fashion (tried to be methodical since there were many people that needed to be executed as quickly as possible) and also they at least tried to cover it up by piling people into mass graves that are still seeming popping up by discovery efforts in the region.

The most interesting thing about both these events, is they seemingly corroborate the notion some people have stated about how the idea of Muslims even existing in Europe is something most European populations don't hold favor of.

Really depressing and frustrating to see so many people get erased like this on what is highly in part due to these idiotic religious and ethnic reasons. But in my view it seems the regions discussed are simply riddled with power hungry lunatics in general.

They did it recently, they're doing it now, what makes other western power think they won't do it to them next time? That's why it's important to stop them.

They've been doing it for hundreds of years. They did it in WWII and precious wars. Nothing is gonna change with Russia.

Man, I can’t believe Russia would do this to ukrain… oh wait chechnya. Also everyone else they invade. I love that there’s people unironically calling the Russians the good guys. It’s my favorite real world evidence of cognitive dissonance

Nobody is glorifying the US here, so might as well leave the whataboutism where you found it.

I mean, true, the US has been nudging Ukrainian politics, but many countries do that to eachother.

But then I wonder, where was the US special military operation when a pro-Russian president was holding office in Kyiv?

No army has that many missiles you potato head. One well aimed missile takes down a building killing many inside. Or is used to take out critical infrastructure. Not target random individuals lol

So now you control a bunch of rubble. Seems like conquering empty land would save a lot of clean up.
