We now know that in territories even briefly occupied by Russian troops there was rape, looting, random killings, assaults on schools and hospitals. This is what the Red Army did in central Europe in 1944-45, and apparently nothing has changed.

The media are sickened by what they are seeing, as are we all. And tonight I'm also seeing another resurgence of demands that the West needs to do more to help -- though unfortunately, the arguments against this are still just as strong as they were a month ago:Seems every war-aged male was executed. Easily 500+ fatalities. Would not be surprised to see a final figure much higher than that, even.

Russia’s alleged actions in Bucha sadly aren’t new. They’re part of a playbook honed in Chechnya and Syria. Yet remember there are Americans who have been praising and defending Russia and Putin publicly for years. Russian media advertises that praise. Putin is emboldened by it. https://t.co/dpcx6311fu

\Now that we have seen evidence of mass graves in Ukraine, and pictures of the atrocities against civilians, We should demand @TuckerCarlson answer for his support of this war, as well as those Congressmen who have done the same. @GOPLeader should demand accountability

We'll likely be seeing more of this type of suggestion -- well-meaning, yes, but....The West & NATO did act in response to Russian violence against Ukrainians. It likely contributed to Russia’s failure around Kyiv.

The idea that a lot of weapons + diplomatic support + unprecedented economic pressure amounts to nothing more than prevarication just isn’t accurate. https://t.co/NWB1Garnhz
More news:One billionaire could end this war in Ukraine. Of course there are add-ons in arming & maintaining creative runways, etc., but seems worth a think. (2/2)

The next decisive battle will be in the Donbas where Russian units are regrouping and attempting to push UKR forces out. That’s the front to watch in the coming weeks. How this battle turns will probably inform Moscow's thinking on prospects in a sustained war. 4/

I want people to remember videos like this when I've pointed out the supply lines for Russia into Ukraine get longer over time.

It takes constant civil engineering work to keep road & rail lines of communications clear during a war.
Think how you would drive through this mess🤔 https://t.co/hE7YhEBOSC

Markos has a significant article posted tonight describing Phase Two of the war -- the Donbas region in the south, where the Ukrainian and Russian armies will likely be fighting next -- the article is too lengthy to excerpt, so just read it for yourself on Daily Kos"Typically, I've had a couple of months to prepare for trips," one physician said. "But, with the invasion of Ukraine, I got about 11 hours' notice." https://t.co/Gu3kRPrbaB
