  1. From the North East USA, I appreciate these podcasts! I hope the civilized world will put more pressure on putin to stop the constant assaults on civilian infrastructure, especially with Winter coming.

  2. The Netherlands has issued 91 waivers on sanctions against Russia …this podcast can't and won't reveal such an important development and what it means in the broader context of.the war in Ukraine…its a pity that journalism has sunk so low for a few silver coins

  3. The Wednesday podcast should.focus on the events around Europe and the Russian evidence that your Country is responsible for the Nordstream destruction and its overall impact on the grand scheme of things in the war…

  4. If the West successfully prevents Russia building replacement accurate missiles, then if Russia uses less accurate weapons that kill more civilians as collateral damage, are they committing a war  cime? As it could be argued that military necessity means that less accurate munitions are justified given the lack of accurat ones. After all the RAF used "area-bombing" in the Second World War because "for want of a rapier a bludgeon was used".

  5. If Russia's bombing of power stations is war crime then isn't the 1999 bombing of the Avala Tower by NATO also a war crime by the same yard stick? Or is this just what one should expect in the propaganda campaigns in a time of war?

    For those who do know, or have forgotten: NATO destroyed the Avala Tower communications and broadcasting tower in Belgrade, Serbia on 29 April 1999 with two laser-guided GBU-27 bombs that hit one leg of the tower, causing its collapse. According to Wikipedia "The intent of the bombing was to put Radio Television Serbia (RTS) permanently off the air for the duration of the war".

    At the time many people in NATO member governments justified the attack, just as vehemently as those same governments now condemn Russian cruise missile attacks on civilian infastructure.

    I wonder what the Daily Telegraph's contempory (1999) reporting of the campaign had to say about it?

  7. I am an American and I really take issue if the cost of bread, gas or petrol, & vegetables are first on the mind's of my fellow Americans.

    When it comes to Ukraine matters or abating their rising prices. Most probably could really afford to eat less and ride bicycles more often.

    There are Ukranianian people dying everyday in Ukraine so as to have what we here celebrate every 4th of July. They have my vote and I could care less about paying $1.50 more a gallon for gas. I'll just stay home and build stringed instrument in the work shop which is better entertainment than browsing a Mall.

  8. We are the people from all of the world, who follow the war daily, this podcast being our favorite source. And that tells everything anyone would need to know about how much we care about Ukraine and it's people!

  9. The West needs give Ukraine more anti air with longer range to hit the Tupolev bombers. To make the pilots less willing to try this genocide. WHAT A CRIME!!! What the devil does Ruzzia keep attacking Bakmutt for. The town is now destroyed. I do pray Ukraine keeps stopping this idiocy in it's tracks.

  10. This report on detentions, multiple instances of continuously breaking any thinkable piece of international law regarding civilian protections by RF is absolutely outrageous. The international community should stop treating russia as a state, because it is not. It breaks even its own laws and acts not only as a state sponsor of terrorism, but as a gang of criminals in the direct sense of the word. I am so tired and sick of this. I truly wish somebody could go in like in Germany 1945 and end this horrible sh*tshow. Because let's be entirely real about it, there is not much difference anymore between RF 2022 and Germany during WW2, least of all considering human rights violations. IT'S THE SAME THING.
