@@frednitney5831 they don't have a children's hospital. they have targeted hospitals numerous times. They allow children to be killed, injured, starved. How is that civilized?
I donated a lot of money to the boys and girls defending us in Ukraine. I know exactly how you feel, how it burns so hard. Stay strong. You are not alone!! Turn your anger into action and justice, give love to local Ukrainian refugees and give to the defenders. Our empathy and caring is what our opponents don't have and what they will never have.
Anger, grief, most strong emotions are energy. I learned to take that energy and USE it to do something constructive. It could be going to a protest, contacting those who are elected and speaking out, or sending a few dollars to those who can best use it. Use that emotion to do something.
Would have never thought that a quote from an over the top scifi setting would summarize my feelings best today: "My armor is contempt. My shield is disgust. My sword is hatred."
Putin is used to killing or jailing any media or political opposition within the so-called Russian Federation. Poison is often used to make a point. Vikor Orbsn and Modi disgust me. I certainly won’t be buying any products from their country. It would be nice if the left-wing political parties to start becoming sane again you know controlling immigration spending trying to destroy the military.
@@VladVexlerChat Hello Vlad! I understand that you mean good. It just highlights what I saw for the last couple of years in the West. I don't know how we can explain it to you guys. russia launched something like 2 500 shahed drones at Ukraine since the start of this year alone, if that happened to the UK, France or Germany, and it may happen soon, not talking about anything else at all, you would realize something is wrong.
@@VladVexlerChat Russia is not the first backward nation that falls apart and goes to the dust bin of history. There is nothing moralizing about it. The use of Russia for the West has never been lower than it is today. Europe has done very well without Russia for thousands of years. We will do perfectly well without this societal and economic backwater in the future. Russia is a failed state, a failed culture, a failed empire and a failed socio-economic petro mafia state. What anyone wants is rather irrelevant. Humans are just one part of history, the rest comes down to geography, mere chance, chaos theory, economic necessities, infrastructure, the climate, and many other factors. Russia is failing to expand and this failure to expand is due to them being a backward society that is too weak to defeat Ukraine. Russia is also too poor to occupy half of Ukraine and its demographics do not provide sufficient young men to wage a war against the West in the long term.
Jackson Hinkle is a blogger from the USA. He published footage from Ukrainian social networks, filmed by local residents, in which one can see a flying rocket and its debris. The blogger emphasized that the missile that hit the Okhmatdyt hospital was a Patriot ZAS-3 interceptor with a pointed nose, which is completely different from the Russian Kh-101 cruise missile with a rounded nose. Hinkle also noted that the missile in the video does not have the wings characteristic of the Russian Kh-101. The American also called on US President Joe Biden to stop sending bombs to “these terrorists” in Kyiv who are targeting their own population. And the air defense missile did not fly to the hospital by chance; it was purposefully aimed at this target. I think there's a NATO summit tomorrow?

@@philippebergeron5821 It probably will end in some form of negotiation where Ukraine is forced to make concessions, of course. How many ukrainian lives do you think its worth sacrificing over territory that cannot be retaken and will only benefit elites?
@@philippebergeron5821 I dont think the invasion is worth any russian lives at all .. But then im not the one arguing for war like you are. How about you just answer the question? Ohh yea, you dont want to because it would reveal how cynical the struggle for "fReEdOm and dEmoCraCy" is. So my response is this: The invasion is worth no lives and shouldn't have occured. Now you answer my question. How many Ukrainians do you think should be sacrificed for the (im)possibility that Donetsk, Luhansk and Crimea will become Ukrainian again? Would you sacrifice your brother, father or son so Sevastopol can have a corrupt ukrainian mayor instead of a corrupt russian mayor? I've never seen one of you lot of warmongers actually answer how many ukrainian lives this is worth... I wonder why?
@@philippebergeron5821 also "my country" lol. I'm from scandinavia, pal. Imagine our media is so free that anyone with a dissenting opinion apparently must be russian cause god forbid someone has different opinions. Russian or european most people seem to just unreflectingly parrot whatever their state television tells them. The television tells you that war is peace and that escalation really is mitigation. Somehow more weapons means less death and a greater chance for peace .. If a guy in a suit on TV told you that the sky is green you'd probably believe that too.
@@philippebergeron5821 None whatsoever .. So now answer my question. Im not the one arguing for escalating a war - you are. Russia should never have invaded .. But now that they have we know they wont stop until at least getting the currently occupied territories .. So I ask you again: How many ukrainian lives is this worth preventing if Ukraine doesnt have the capability of taking them back? 10.000 more? a 100.000 more? Give me a number of how many innocent people you think ought to die for this? Where do you draw the line? Warmongers such as yourself always deflect when asked this question .. I wonder why? Asking Ukrainians to accept untold death for a geopolitical goal that doesnt even directly affect them is the epitome of inhumane cynicism imo. Why do you think more and more ukrainians in polls want their government to negotiate? Its easy to sit behind a desk in the west and ask them to give up a brother. a son or a father just so Biden wont have to face defeat during his own presidency. I just dont think its very 'pro-democracy' or 'pro freedom'. It just seems pro death.
outrage??? Vlad, I live in what considers itself "western" Europe. I consider myself as average as can be. My outrage once more tops every before to levels I am such afraid I can handle that I restrict my media consumption and e.g. don't watch Anna today. Resolution to fully commit to do something against that is once more seemingly unshakable - yet will probably again only last till the next even uglier, even more devastating, even more despair triggering atrocity (maybe for you to analyze whether that is even purpose of their actions...). But outrage as well has never been more for the Xis, Orbàns and Modis of the world. I haven't heard so far any condemnation of them of this. And that makes them complicit!
How Orban's visit to Xi and Modi's visit to Putin is considered as complicity on these attacks? You are being responsive at this point so relax and analyze yourself.
I grew up during the cold war, and at some point told my dad that I wasn't sure Russians were that bad and why we didn't try to develop better relations. My dad said we've tried and tried, and that I didn't know what Russians were capable of doing. I'm sorry my dad isn't here today for me to tell him he was right all along.

Thank you so much for a brilliant insight. Your analysis and calm voice helped me to cool my head. I'm from Odesa but always dreamed to live in Kyiv and work, or at least study at Okhmadit. This place is a beam of hope for children with rare genetic illnesses and cancer. Some remarkable people work there and two of them were lost today.
@@VladVexlerChat As has often been pointed out here and by other sources, such tactics are deliberate. Desperation may or may not be among the motives behind them, but I'd say it's far more likely to show the Ukrainians and the rest of the world that only by submitting to what Putin and the Russian government wants from Ukraine, can there be any sort of "peace" on Russia's terms.
@@DonaldRilea Might be that I find it in too much of a parallel to P. Escobar, also an internationally wanted fugitive who resorted to murdering easier targets just to manipulate govt and public.
Disgusted but unsurprised to see the BBC's Steve Rosenberg foreground the Kremlin's version of events that it was a Ukrainian air defence missile that caused the tragedy.
Dispicable. Even if it was, why did 1200 hospitals in Ukraine get attacked. All be air defense? And why yesterday even Solovyov called for destruction of Ukrainian cities. This is cyncical of Rosenberg.
@paul • It wasn't a Ukrainian air defense missile. There's a close-up photo of the cruise missile angled down toward its target with an intact fuselage showing no signs of damage. Russia's missile hit its intended target, the children's hospital.
My niece lives just outside Kyiv, has 3 babies: 3 years old, 2 years old and newborn. I knew a well-educated old man living in Victoria, Canada who knew about it, but chose to torment me with Putin's propaganda about Ukraine. He admired Putin, told me that Putin never wanted this war. And when I suggested him to watch some channels from Russians who are against this war and hate Putin, he wouldn't change his mind. And he's a well-experienced psychologist....
Many people's views are tattooed into the physci, the can't change their minds even when presented with the evidence. The recent Pink floyd/pears morgan interview is a classic example.
Re. the Russian Kharkiv offensive, it's failed. Putin's troops have been pushed back from where they were several weeks ago and are now either retreating or trying to hold defensive positions.
The Russians committed this atrocity, and also later attacked a maternity hospital, on the eve of the NATO Summit. As Gabrielius Landbergis, Lithuanian Foreign Secretary, said today: "Putin sends his greetings to the NATO Summit by bombing a childrens' hospital, as if any clarification was needed as to why Ukraine must have all possible support now, and real guarantees for security in the future." Let's hope that he and the other delegates from Russia's close neighbours can convince their less committed colleagues of the truth of what he says.

@@evgen-cy6so I can't pretend to know much about ballistics. However I think Ryan McBeth in his livestream yesterday pretty thoroughly debunked Jackson Hinkle's claim. The Ukrainian missile (40 pound warhead) is far too small to have caused that amount of damage. The Russian missile has a warhead of 450kg or close to 1,000 pounds. Ryan also mentioned that Twitter videos can't be treated as if they're accurate because they're obliged to compress them so much, which really matters when trying to identify missiles.
It made me cry. I donated to the Ukrainian army so that the innocent can defend themselves. If you are reading this, you are not alone. Stay strong!! Slava Ukraini!

@@Nikola_C actually no . I think this is confused . I thought i was reacting to a Russian. Isreal is complex, painfully so . The people to the right of Netanyahu at least want ethnic cleansing in Gaza and even the west bank thats pretty ugly. But i wouldnt say Isreal is hateful. And i dont see how there is going to be a solution but i would generally agree with Noam Chomsky. I think a unified secular state including Isreal Gaza and the west bank and full rights for Arabs should be attempted . But i realize the difficulties. I would prefer we not make Isreals problems caused by Jewish racisn and mysticism and lack of vision an American problem. I do think Isreal poses a serious threat to Iran and Lebanon . And i think involvement with Isreal discredits and complicates Canadian and USA strategy which should concetrate on good relations with Turkey and fighting Russia. I thought the people who ran on support for Gaza in the UK election did a good work and i was glad to see one girl elected as an MP who will speak for Palestinian interests. I think the oversized influence of the pro Isreal lobby will fade in the USA and Canada and that eventually we will disengage from isreal. But we all know people who needed Isreal and the old British Mandate as a place of refuge. .. it served a purpose in saving lives long ago. I still feel bitterness about anti British Jewish Terrorism after ww two.

@@itsallminor6133 You can measure humanity's progress in technology, number of famines, life expectancy - no matter how. But as long as we cannot agree on a universal international and human right and defend it, we are racing towards the next catastrophe. Technology turned wars into total wars. Every world war was a total war in which the most destructive weapon available at the time was used. 2022 was the opportunity to learn from history as this moment existed in 1938, but both times the aggressor was given time - time in which it was thought he would realize his "mistake". But he used time to expand the war, break resistance and forge alliances. Everybody in UNSEC knows already where we're heading to. But no one is courageous enough to stop it.
@@utrian4148 "break resistance. Forge alliances. ". Yes I've been somewhat impressed by this. And the recent trend toward "thinking " they are ending neo liberalism, while very possibly ending the western derived world order . The partial similarities in the cold war alliances brings back distant memories, now rejuvenated. I do not believe in progress. I believe in change. Progress is much more subjective a consideration. Your thoughts are appreciated, so I will respond in kind. The United nations is about to meet. As you, all I could offer is the same pretense of a mutually agreed upon. Perhaps a one world government. Unlikely it would be as each country would need to relinquish its ego and a portion of its sovereignty. We see the near failure (future failure) of NATO, EU conflicts, U.N. conflicts. So such a remedy appears not feasible. What Russia has done (beyond Ukraine which isn't the real significance) is crashed through the established world order. Shattering it despite possible ramifications and deterrences. Even this however, Russia, is not the actual problem (in my perception). What is perhaps the real problem, as you clearly mentioned that I previously noted. Is it makes such agreements untenable. As history has shown before. And yet gain. Still untenable. Both in principle, efficacy expected, and actual practice. So I will pose the same question. Coming from the reality that rights do not exist. Most things are contrivances. Agreed upon realities only if they can be enforced or beneficial (we could not enforce Russia and it did not care of the benefits enough). Putting Ukraine aside (I'm sure it'll lose partial territory to Russia and black Rock will colonize the rest?) let's consider the larger problem it represents. So what exactly is the solution? All I can offer is the idea that extreme power and wealth will not destroy itself. And since the extreme power and wealth has yet to figure out how to remove itself from the planet. Then it will be in its interest to keep the more believing radicals and ideologues in check. . This of course working, only as long as the power and wealth isn't one and the same as the believing radicals and ideologues. My thoughts being great powers would attempt to prevent their own destruction. There is much power and wealth to be fought over. Yet total destruction is only a viable as a alternative to the radical. I don't think anything will come of our current situation. However In the future I do see the possibility of giving heed to the radicals because of no other choice. In such way, your original proposal of agreement could never objectively be reached. Yes this is the mutually assured destruction doctrine. Establishing equilibrium. We've overthrown , invaded, attempted to stop that attempted radical from forming as I stated above. Which we would have to give heed to. It's really the elites we rely on. To benefit from destruction but know the limits of their profitability from it. Do not fret. Putin is not one of those radical idealogues. In a interview on nuclear confrontation he had responded without the existence of Russia there was no reason for the world (or something to that effect?). This is actually a good response. It follows the mutually assured destruction premise. Russia is not a radical. Or real threat. It did however shatter our other than nuclear deterrences . Which brings us back to the problem. The benefit of it being Russia is Russia is a frenemy. In saying that I mean they are a enemy, but we've been through the cold war and survived. As a frenemy we can trust them to heighten tensions, with a very small likelihood of going radical.

Putin doesn't deport the children, Putin doesn't fire or design the misiles, Putin doesn't grow crops on occupied lands, Putin doesn't settle in abandoned homes in Crimea, Putin is not the one gladly paying taxes to support the invading army.

0:27 "we don't know whether that's what they were doing today" - pretty harmful statement right there. The eyewitness video shows, clear as day, an undamaged cruise missile diving toward its target.
3 Ukraine things choked me up today, one after another. (I'm in the west of England, for context.) First my mum told about a talk given by someone related to her church (yeah, she's religious. Funny old world) - about their experience hosting a Ukrainian refugee family - the mother and her 3 kids, after her husband volunteered for the army in Feb 22. All went swimmingly until they got a call on Boxing Day to say he'd been in an IFV that hit a landmine; he survived but lost a leg. Just hearing it as a personal anecdote from my mum!) made it hit home more than any other recent Ua news (and I absorb a LOT of it, by most people's standards.) Secondly, the images from the Kyiv children's hospital on the news,and footage of people in the street singing g, and then singing the national anthem in a shelter during a subsequent air raid warning. And finally "and now sport." - the Ukrainian tennis player at Wimbledon, in the post match interview, very emotional, talking about how hard it had been to wake up, see the news, then go out and pay tennis. /inconsequential personal anecdote ends

I hear what you're saying about how far Russia will go to "conquer" Ukraine, to not underestimate Putin. And, I would not underestimate Ukraine and their determination to disrupt Russia's attempt to dominate them. This attack on the hospital may be a red line for Ukraine that might trigger attacks on Russia beyond military and industrial targets.

Anders Puck Nielsen posted a video on the topic of ICC and “War Crimes”. He takes the position that Russian war crimes are carried out on purpose and, in my opinion, argues this quite plausibly.
YES, I thought that was scarily accurate: go crazy committing endless war crimes, to demonstrate that all the international regulations against them are completely ineffective & meaningless. I was already 100% sure the war crimes were deliberate, but I thought it was "just" to make Ukrainians suffer & give up- this is even more sinister somehow.
There's no lower than this. From now on whenever somebody brings up a Russian talking point, I'll just ask: and was this before or after the Russian army killed Ukrainian kids with cancer?
@@sogerc1 You can begin with the fact that tens of thousands of Ukrainian children have been kidnapped and are currently being brainwashed and reprogrammed.
I feel optimistic after the miracle of french elections. No matter how much western european states dislike the idea of escalation, it is ultimately Russia who can not afford it. I do believe similarly to France the citizens of europe will not lend support to politicians who don’t stand with Ukraine. And the more Russia pushes, the less there are reasons to humour Russias ideas for peace. The less reasons there are to limit support to Ukraine. And Russia is absolutely unprepared for such turn of events - the only realistic path to victory Russia has counts on western apathy and indiffernce. Russia has given no reasonable terms to even negotiate a seize fire. There is no path to ensure that this doesn’t happen again through negotiations. Russia is targeting civilian targets to spread Ukrainian air defence assets thin, blatantly breaking international law. It is very straightforward that the only way to save Ukrainian civilians is through material military support - not negotiations. So Russia is again forcing the hand of western and european nations towards a path Russia can’t even hope to win. We will not turn our backs to the violence against Ukrainian children. We may drag our feet, but when push comes to shove, (and Russia is pushing) we will choose clear conscience and hard times, over appeacement of tyrants.
It would've been so easy for Ukraine's allies to prevent most of Russia's atrocities and war crimes. And it is still easy to prevent most of them now. With only a tiny bit more courage (or a tiny bit less cowardice), the allies need only establish and abide by a rule that the amount and type of weapons they give Ukraine -- and the restrictions they place on how and where Ukraine can use them -- depends directly on whether Russia fights the war with some honor and basic decency. The allies would need to communicate this rule to the Russians and tell them that, regardless of how honorably or dishonorably Russia fights the war, the allies will give Ukraine at least enough support not to lose more territory, sparing Russia from flat-out defeat. But if Russia continues to commit war crimes, then the allies will give more lethal weapons to Ukraine and loosen restrictions on how and where Ukraine can use them. If Russia not only continues to commit war crimes but continues to do so on a large scale, then the allies will give Ukraine enough to drive the Russians out of the occupied territory in Eastern and Southern Ukraine and, if Russia's war crimes remain widespread and monstrous, then the allies will give Ukraine enough weapons to further drive Russia out of Crimea leaving it obvious to the world that Russia flat-out lost the war.
What saddens me the most is that in just a couple of weeks those outside Ukraine will forget this terrible event ever happened. When was the last time Vlad mentioned the bombing of the Donetsk Academic Regional Drama Theatre? Or the airstrikes on Maternity Hospital No. 3? Go on, can *you* remember where and when these war crimes occurred (without searching)? Well, there's your answer why American policy does not change.
It's tragicly funny that Czech writer Karel Havlik Borovsky said that Russia is a country that only brings fort misery, poverty and booze, and great poetry about miser, poverty and booze. He died in 1856 at 34 and isn't proven incorrect sadly enough.
I can't get my head around this. Another totally deliberate despicable act by a terrorist state. I encourage everyone to share this video clip on their social media platforms. This dastardly act must be punished in all the severest forms.
Thanks for that thought Vlad. I get bogged at times in the horror and grief over the suffering and cannot understand any mindset that seems the mutilation and killing of others as a legitimate means to self aggrandisement. Indeed I don’t understand the drive to self aggrandisement but that is another matter. A wise person once said that they began to find their way out of a terrible situation when they stopped asking “Why? and asked instead “For what purpose?” The change of perspective allows one to address the root of the problem. I pray that the Ukrainians be given wisdom and insight to thwart Russia’s intentions.
@@PaulHewsonPhD hello Paul, roughly, these were not serious security guarantees and Ukraine understood that. You have to approach the BM with the scepticism all the parties approached it with. The Ukrainian side knew that the BM gave Ukraine not security guarantees but weak assurances, which it could lean on to get help if to were invaded.
The comments section in The Independent is anything to go by, the Putin fanboys could save themselves a lot of time by just writing “but Gaza….” a whole bunch of times. As if that justifies anything happening in Ukraine or vice versa.
This recent attack shows the attitude of : 'You and whose army is going to stop me?' In a past experience where a boss who was ducking and diving, cheating on his partner in business, defrauding the Receiver of Revenue and operating above the law, said the above-mentioned to me, expecting me to fold under the implied threat. Long story short. An internal audit was done by the auditors and full reporting made to the authorities. Action was taken to challenge this practice and I was protected by the authories who brought the charges against the partners. Somewhere along the way one has to put all on the line to challenge what is unacceptable, antisocial, and in the current tragedy a clear genocide.
What’s bizarre, is that you know this would have been treated very differently if had been done by a Russian agent planting explosives in the hospital.
Thank you Vlad. I have a question. How should we interact with the so young - liberal - open minded Russians in the west who are just silent? I see some of them visiting familiy and having vacation in Russia. Acting like the war is bad but it doesn't concern them.
This attack has crossed the line so far that it is bound to erode any sympathy the international community has for Russia. This makes aggressive moves against Russia more feasible for Western Democracies.
Not really. After spending months watching the same kind of shit be done in Gaza for months without the west showing anything like the same level of outrage, the rest of the world knows that to westerners, only white lives matter.
I wonder what ordinary Russians think of this atrocity. I know the regime is blaming Ukraine for it, and that's probably enough for the people in the 'blob' to hide behind the veil of 'who knows what's really true?'. But I wonder if they are upset or outraged when events like this happen. It's so horrible. My heart aches for the people of Ukraine.
Who would want want to admit their govt and mjlitary is capable of something so terrible. They will be given plausible deniability by their propagandists.
Responsibility for these destructions lies with the Western allies, who fail to give Ukraine enough air defense capabilities to protect their cities and their critical infrastructure. This allows Putin to play out his terror - with not much fear, that a Russian main hospital somewhere may go up in flames as answer to this. The lack of Russian compassion is staggering.
Big difference: Hamas had stored arms, tunnels and command centers in and under hospitals. Israel also moved patients to safety, with appropriate equipment, while cleaning out the terrorists and weapons.
JDAMS are not hostage rescue tools. Merkava are not hostage rescue tools. Drones are not hostage rescue tools. Using them and pretending that hostage rescue is the goal is disingenuous.
The war is stalemated due to the messianic intransigence of Putin, who regards human life as mere fripperies to his historic mission. Roosevelt once said of Mussolini that anybody can start a war, but it takes somebody to finish one. Russia has been proved to be an anybody. Who is going to be the somebody? Poland?
This is good , really good . And yr a British Subject now but its very fitting for you to care about Russia and Isreal too. But we need voices from Sudan which is being ravaged by the worst sort of neo Colonialism ,the UAE , Saudi Arabia , Russia trying to get control of agricultural land , water , gold in Darfur. We ve got to try not to be hardened or jaded , we ve got to see each other as humans not avatars on the internet. So yes this pod cast is a good work.
Not much outrage here in germany, sadly. Only the usual stupid, "why are only 13% Ukrainians working here" and "Selensky is sooo corrupt". I mostly just feel sick, rather than outraged, too blunted up to feel anything beyond that. One can really only love this country with a broken heart.
I am in France. We are more numerous than you think. Don't give up! Activism for Ukraine means so much to Ukrainians living in the West. Despair and apathy is what they want from us, our revenge is to deny them our despair.
@@jakef.7126 Thank you so much. For everything! All the love to France you are truely our brothers and sisters. Modern germany would be unthinkable without our friendship with France.
As a German with Ukrainian wife and friends I feel you. I am ashamed that such attacks are hardly mentioned but in case Ukraine hits a military target and somehow by any accidemt civilians are killed it is headline.
Would you really expect outrage in Germany, a country that sadly has form on slaughtering innocent children. This is a dreadfully sad reflection on Germany which seems not to have learned the lessons from its own dark, murderous past.
The US isn't even talking about this in the news. It should be front page news, but our news is focused on our Presidential election instead. Of note, the children's hospital is very close to the Finnish and Korean embassies. Besides that, it is surrounded mainly by other medical offices and hospitals. We currently don't know if it was a fragment of the missile or the full missile that struck the building, but based on current pictures of the damage, many experienced military reporters with combat experience suspect it was not a fragment. We will know more later if the information is released. With how inaccurate this missile is, it would have been aimed at the general area, so they intended to hit the hospitals, the embassies, or this was a large fragment of an intercepted missile and a tragedy of war. I hope it wasn't intentional as it is not that Russia aiming weapons at the weak and civilian targets that worries me, but the lack of outrage and response from the Western nations that is utterly unacceptable.

By the way, according to Forbes, Russia spent $250 million on the attack on Ukraine on July 8....
The Kerch bridge should be destroyed.
The point may be "do this yourselves, nobody can do anything about it" or "I can do this to you, fair warning".
Putin is used to killing or jailing any media or political opposition within the so-called Russian Federation. Poison is often used to make a point. Vikor Orbsn and Modi disgust me. I certainly won’t be buying any products from their country. It would be nice if the left-wing political parties to start becoming sane again you know controlling immigration spending trying to destroy the military.
No, not a 'point', this was a 'message'.

Obviously Ukraine must be admitted to full membership of NATO as soon as practicable. And Russia expelled from the United Nations.
Obviously that's highly unlikely, unfortunately.

@@VladVexlerChat Hello Vlad! I understand that you mean good. It just highlights what I saw for the last couple of years in the West. I don't know how we can explain it to you guys. russia launched something like 2 500 shahed drones at Ukraine since the start of this year alone, if that happened to the UK, France or Germany, and it may happen soon, not talking about anything else at all, you would realize something is wrong.
@@VladVexlerChat Russia is not the first backward nation that falls apart and goes to the dust bin of history. There is nothing moralizing about it. The use of Russia for the West has never been lower than it is today. Europe has done very well without Russia for thousands of years. We will do perfectly well without this societal and economic backwater in the future. Russia is a failed state, a failed culture, a failed empire and a failed socio-economic petro mafia state.
What anyone wants is rather irrelevant. Humans are just one part of history, the rest comes down to geography, mere chance, chaos theory, economic necessities, infrastructure, the climate, and many other factors.
Russia is failing to expand and this failure to expand is due to them being a backward society that is too weak to defeat Ukraine. Russia is also too poor to occupy half of Ukraine and its demographics do not provide sufficient young men to wage a war against the West in the long term.
Jackson Hinkle is a blogger from the USA.
He published footage from Ukrainian social networks, filmed by local residents, in which one can see a flying rocket and its debris. The blogger emphasized that the missile that hit the Okhmatdyt hospital was a Patriot ZAS-3 interceptor with a pointed nose, which is completely different from the Russian Kh-101 cruise missile with a rounded nose. Hinkle also noted that the missile in the video does not have the wings characteristic of the Russian Kh-101.
The American also called on US President Joe Biden to stop sending bombs to “these terrorists” in Kyiv who are targeting their own population.
And the air defense missile did not fly to the hospital by chance; it was purposefully aimed at this target. I think there's a NATO summit tomorrow?

Give me a number of how many innocent people you think ought to die for this? Where do you draw the line?
Warmongers such as yourself always deflect when asked this question .. I wonder why?
Asking Ukrainians to accept untold death for a geopolitical goal that doesnt even directly affect them is the epitome of inhumane cynicism imo. Why do you think more and more ukrainians in polls want their government to negotiate? Its easy to sit behind a desk in the west and ask them to give up a brother. a son or a father just so Biden wont have to face defeat during his own presidency.

I consider myself as average as can be.
My outrage once more tops every before to levels I am such afraid I can handle that I restrict my media consumption and e.g. don't watch Anna today.
Resolution to fully commit to do something against that is once more seemingly unshakable - yet will probably again only last till the next even uglier, even more devastating, even more despair triggering atrocity (maybe for you to analyze whether that is even purpose of their actions...).
But outrage as well has never been more for the Xis, Orbàns and Modis of the world.
I haven't heard so far any condemnation of them of this.

@paul • It wasn't a Ukrainian air defense missile. There's a close-up photo of the cruise missile angled down toward its target with an intact fuselage showing no signs of damage. Russia's missile hit its intended target, the children's hospital.
Straight out of the IDF playbook.
Thanks Vlad 😊
My niece lives just outside Kyiv, has 3 babies: 3 years old, 2 years old and newborn. I knew a well-educated old man living in Victoria, Canada who knew about it, but chose to torment me with Putin's propaganda about Ukraine. He admired Putin, told me that Putin never wanted this war. And when I suggested him to watch some channels from Russians who are against this war and hate Putin, he wouldn't change his mind. And he's a well-experienced psychologist....
Not but disdain for this person.
I'm so sorry to hear that. I can't imagine how you must feel. Sadly, being well-educated is no guarantee of morality or even basic human decency.

Clearly the man is an idiot and a jerk.
Many people's views are tattooed into the physci, the can't change their minds even when presented with the evidence. The recent Pink floyd/pears morgan interview is a classic example.
Re. the Russian Kharkiv offensive, it's failed. Putin's troops have been pushed back from where they were several weeks ago and are now either retreating or trying to hold defensive positions.
The Russians committed this atrocity, and also later attacked a maternity hospital, on the eve of the NATO Summit.
As Gabrielius Landbergis, Lithuanian Foreign Secretary, said today: "Putin sends his greetings to the NATO Summit by bombing a childrens' hospital, as if any clarification was needed as to why Ukraine must have all possible support now, and real guarantees for security in the future."
Let's hope that he and the other delegates from Russia's close neighbours can convince their less committed colleagues of the truth of what he says.

Well social contracts only last as long as they are mutually agreed upon.
@@itsallminor6133 You can measure humanity's progress in technology, number of famines, life expectancy - no matter how. But as long as we cannot agree on a universal international and human right and defend it, we are racing towards the next catastrophe.
Technology turned wars into total wars.
Every world war was a total war in which the most destructive weapon available at the time was used.
2022 was the opportunity to learn from history as this moment existed in 1938, but both times the aggressor was given time - time in which it was thought he would realize his "mistake". But he used time to expand the war, break resistance and forge alliances.
Everybody in UNSEC knows already where we're heading to. But no one is courageous enough to stop it.
@@utrian4148 "break resistance. Forge alliances. ".
Yes I've been somewhat impressed by this. And the recent trend toward "thinking " they are ending neo liberalism, while very possibly ending the western derived world order .
The partial similarities in the cold war alliances brings back distant memories, now rejuvenated.
I do not believe in progress. I believe in change. Progress is much more subjective a consideration.
Your thoughts are appreciated, so I will respond in kind.
The United nations is about to meet. As you, all I could offer is the same pretense of a mutually agreed upon. Perhaps a one world government. Unlikely it would be as each country would need to relinquish its ego and a portion of its sovereignty. We see the near failure (future failure) of NATO, EU conflicts, U.N. conflicts. So such a remedy appears not feasible.
What Russia has done (beyond Ukraine which isn't the real significance) is crashed through the established world order. Shattering it despite possible ramifications and deterrences. Even this however, Russia, is not the actual problem (in my perception).
What is perhaps the real problem, as you clearly mentioned that I previously noted. Is it makes such agreements untenable. As history has shown before. And yet gain. Still untenable.
Both in principle, efficacy expected, and actual practice.
So I will pose the same question. Coming from the reality that rights do not exist. Most things are contrivances. Agreed upon realities only if they can be enforced or beneficial (we could not enforce Russia and it did not care of the benefits enough).
Putting Ukraine aside (I'm sure it'll lose partial territory to Russia and black Rock will colonize the rest?) let's consider the larger problem it represents.
So what exactly is the solution?
All I can offer is the idea that extreme power and wealth will not destroy itself. And since the extreme power and wealth has yet to figure out how to remove itself from the planet. Then it will be in its interest to keep the more believing radicals and ideologues in check. .
This of course working, only as long as the power and wealth isn't one and the same as the believing radicals and ideologues.
My thoughts being great powers would attempt to prevent their own destruction. There is much power and wealth to be fought over. Yet total destruction is only a viable as a alternative to the radical.
I don't think anything will come of our current situation. However In the future I do see the possibility of giving heed to the radicals because of no other choice.
In such way, your original proposal of agreement could never objectively be reached.
Yes this is the mutually assured destruction doctrine. Establishing equilibrium. We've overthrown , invaded, attempted to stop that attempted radical from forming as I stated above. Which we would have to give heed to. It's really the elites we rely on. To benefit from destruction but know the limits of their profitability from it.
Do not fret. Putin is not one of those radical idealogues. In a interview on nuclear confrontation he had responded without the existence of Russia there was no reason for the world (or something to that effect?). This is actually a good response. It follows the mutually assured destruction premise. Russia is not a radical. Or real threat.
It did however shatter our other than nuclear deterrences . Which brings us back to the problem.
The benefit of it being Russia is Russia is a frenemy. In saying that I mean they are a enemy, but we've been through the cold war and survived. As a frenemy we can trust them to heighten tensions, with a very small likelihood of going radical.
That a person like Putin exists is enough for me to feel despair.
Don't despair, act, donate, help local Ukrainian refugees. They want us to despair. DO NOT GIVE THEM THE DESPAIR THEY CRAVE. They have despair, not us.
It's not just Putin. It's 140 million putins.
Putin doesn't deport the children, Putin doesn't fire or design the misiles, Putin doesn't grow crops on occupied lands, Putin doesn't settle in abandoned homes in Crimea, Putin is not the one gladly paying taxes to support the invading army.
Putin is merely a spokesperson of the people. The real responsibles' faces aren't shown in the news, it could be your neighbor, Ekaterina, who donates for drones for the russian army.
Not despair, just utter contempt. These are human turds, they stink all the way through.
@@slugma1054 plus you cuz you also didn't do anything in order to stop him or fight and probably d1e for Ukraine. So you are the one who is throwing your responsibility on Russian ppl.
Learning from Netanyahu - if he can get away with it, why can't I?
Ukraine seems to be on a push to sign security guarantees with separate countries (Poland just recently, Lithuania etc before that). Is this Ukraine slow rolling this guarantee package that it needs?
No. To end the war, Ukraine needs security guarantees from major Western powers which make it impossible for Putin to attack Ukraine.
The pictures of children being treated for cancer, outside the hospital rubble; that really, really got me. ❤
We will remember
0:27 "we don't know whether that's what they were doing today" - pretty harmful statement right there. The eyewitness video shows, clear as day, an undamaged cruise missile diving toward its target.
I'm legitimately terrified by the thoughts that this summons within me.
3 Ukraine things choked me up today, one after another. (I'm in the west of England, for context.) First my mum told about a talk given by someone related to her church (yeah, she's religious. Funny old world) - about their experience hosting a Ukrainian refugee family - the mother and her 3 kids, after her husband volunteered for the army in Feb 22. All went swimmingly until they got a call on Boxing Day to say he'd been in an IFV that hit a landmine; he survived but lost a leg. Just hearing it as a personal anecdote from my mum!) made it hit home more than any other recent Ua news (and I absorb a LOT of it, by most people's standards.) Secondly, the images from the Kyiv children's hospital on the news,and footage of people in the street singing g, and then singing the national anthem in a shelter during a subsequent air raid warning. And finally "and now sport." - the Ukrainian tennis player at Wimbledon, in the post match interview, very emotional, talking about how hard it had been to wake up, see the news, then go out and pay tennis.
/inconsequential personal anecdote ends
I’m reeeeeeeally tired of children’s hospitals getting hit,seems to be happening all over lately,we’re doomed as a species.
Thanks Vlad, for your quiet words of sage-like noisy wisdom. God Bless. Stay strong. Stay safe. Stay as well as possible. These are fretful times…..💜☮✝☮💜☮✝☮💜
INDIA NEEDS SANCTIONS TOO NOW IMO
I agree. Except I find the red dots on the females foreheads fascinating. Maybe we could sanction them (modi is a joke anyway like most of u.s. congress) and get some red dotted females. What is the u.s. immigration policy with India?🤔
Thank you
Thank you Vlad. 👌
I hear what you're saying about how far Russia will go to "conquer" Ukraine, to not underestimate Putin. And, I would not underestimate Ukraine and their determination to disrupt Russia's attempt to dominate them. This attack on the hospital may be a red line for Ukraine that might trigger attacks on Russia beyond military and industrial targets.
This will not happen, but I do see even more outrage in the war on r-ussian and no Modi, Organ or Xi will be able to help Russia internationally.

And that is not all......
Anders Puck Nielsen posted a video on the topic of ICC and “War Crimes”. He takes the position that Russian war crimes are carried out on purpose and, in my opinion, argues this quite plausibly.
YES, I thought that was scarily accurate: go crazy committing endless war crimes, to demonstrate that all the international regulations against them are completely ineffective & meaningless. I was already 100% sure the war crimes were deliberate, but I thought it was "just" to make Ukrainians suffer & give up- this is even more sinister somehow.
There's no lower than this. From now on whenever somebody brings up a Russian talking point, I'll just ask: and was this before or after the Russian army killed Ukrainian kids with cancer?
@@sogerc1 You can begin with the fact that tens of thousands of Ukrainian children have been kidnapped and are currently being brainwashed and reprogrammed.
I feel optimistic after the miracle of french elections. No matter how much western european states dislike the idea of escalation, it is ultimately Russia who can not afford it. I do believe similarly to France the citizens of europe will not lend support to politicians who don’t stand with Ukraine.
And the more Russia pushes, the less there are reasons to humour Russias ideas for peace. The less reasons there are to limit support to Ukraine. And Russia is absolutely unprepared for such turn of events - the only realistic path to victory Russia has counts on western apathy and indiffernce.
Russia has given no reasonable terms to even negotiate a seize fire. There is no path to ensure that this doesn’t happen again through negotiations. Russia is targeting civilian targets to spread Ukrainian air defence assets thin, blatantly breaking international law.
It is very straightforward that the only way to save Ukrainian civilians is through material military support - not negotiations. So Russia is again forcing the hand of western and european nations towards a path Russia can’t even hope to win.
We will not turn our backs to the violence against Ukrainian children. We may drag our feet, but when push comes to shove, (and Russia is pushing) we will choose clear conscience and hard times, over appeacement of tyrants.
I whished you'd said "Syria" instead of "Gaza".
Yoohoo vlad Vexler you said lots of love at the end,,, what is love ?
It would've been so easy for Ukraine's allies to prevent most of Russia's atrocities and war crimes. And it is still easy to prevent most of them now. With only a tiny bit more courage (or a tiny bit less cowardice), the allies need only establish and abide by a rule that the amount and type of weapons they give Ukraine -- and the restrictions they place on how and where Ukraine can use them -- depends directly on whether Russia fights the war with some honor and basic decency. The allies would need to communicate this rule to the Russians and tell them that, regardless of how honorably or dishonorably Russia fights the war, the allies will give Ukraine at least enough support not to lose more territory, sparing Russia from flat-out defeat. But if Russia continues to commit war crimes, then the allies will give more lethal weapons to Ukraine and loosen restrictions on how and where Ukraine can use them. If Russia not only continues to commit war crimes but continues to do so on a large scale, then the allies will give Ukraine enough to drive the Russians out of the occupied territory in Eastern and Southern Ukraine and, if Russia's war crimes remain widespread and monstrous, then the allies will give Ukraine enough weapons to further drive Russia out of Crimea leaving it obvious to the world that Russia flat-out lost the war.
I am not so sure about this.
By today, Ukraine has more defence-systems and is better protected than any other european countrys, I guess.
Does President Putin want to be able to call Ukraine a rump state at the end of the war?
He wants Ukraine not to be part of the West, and not to be neutral.
@@VladVexlerChat He wants to occupy Ukraine and subjugate its people. Nothing less. All his words are lies.
@@VladVexlerChatUkraine will hate Russia for decades so mission accomplished regarding the non neutrality
timely content...punctual response
What saddens me the most is that in just a couple of weeks those outside Ukraine will forget this terrible event ever happened. When was the last time Vlad mentioned the bombing of the Donetsk Academic Regional Drama Theatre? Or the airstrikes on Maternity Hospital No. 3? Go on, can *you* remember where and when these war crimes occurred (without searching)?
Well, there's your answer why American policy does not change.
I am not Ukrainian. I am American. I won't forget Russian evil.
It's tragicly funny that Czech writer Karel Havlik Borovsky said that Russia is a country that only brings fort misery, poverty and booze, and great poetry about miser, poverty and booze.
He died in 1856 at 34 and isn't proven incorrect sadly enough.
It was enough to make me cry. 🇨🇦
Why is Russia not yet booted out of UN, WTO and so on?
Because America and Israel haven't, duh
Because America and Israel haven't, duh

And the US and Germany are still shutting Ukraine down. The lack of headlines were awful.
I can't get my head around this. Another totally deliberate despicable act by a terrorist state. I encourage everyone to share this video clip on their social media platforms. This dastardly act must be punished in all the severest forms.
Exactly was I was thinking. Its not clever its just destructive.
Thanks for that thought Vlad. I get bogged at times in the horror and grief over the suffering and cannot understand any mindset that seems the mutilation and killing of others as a legitimate means to self aggrandisement. Indeed I don’t understand the drive to self aggrandisement but that is another matter. A wise person once said that they began to find their way out of a terrible situation when they stopped asking “Why? and asked instead “For what purpose?” The change of perspective allows one to address the root of the problem. I pray that the Ukrainians be given wisdom and insight to thwart Russia’s intentions.
I thought there were already security guarantees - signed when Ukraine gave up nuclear weapons. Did I imagine that?
@@PaulHewsonPhD hello Paul, roughly, these were not serious security guarantees and Ukraine understood that. You have to approach the BM with the scepticism all the parties approached it with. The Ukrainian side knew that the BM gave Ukraine not security guarantees but weak assurances, which it could lean on to get help if to were invaded.
Literally across the street from the hospital are the Embassies for Finland and South Korea. Did they just miss ?
You dare not, at all.
Accepting that outrage on all else may fall!
Yoohoo vlad Vexler
The comments section in The Independent is anything to go by, the Putin fanboys could save themselves a lot of time by just writing “but Gaza….” a whole bunch of times.
As if that justifies anything happening in Ukraine or vice versa.
No, it doesn't justify what is happening in Ukraine. But it does make it clear that western outrage is extremely... selective.
This recent attack shows the attitude of : 'You and whose army is going to stop me?' In a past experience where a boss who was ducking and diving, cheating on his partner in business, defrauding the Receiver of Revenue and operating above the law, said the above-mentioned to me, expecting me to fold under the implied threat. Long story short. An internal audit was done by the auditors and full reporting made to the authorities. Action was taken to challenge this practice and I was protected by the authories who brought the charges against the partners. Somewhere along the way one has to put all on the line to challenge what is unacceptable, antisocial, and in the current tragedy a clear genocide.
...we need to step the military game up...jfc
The news of the strike on the children oncology hospital filled my vaines with boiling vinegar
What’s bizarre, is that you know this would have been treated very differently if had been done by a Russian agent planting explosives in the hospital.
Outrage? I am seething with pure whitehot rage.
Thank you Vlad.
I have a question. How should we interact with the so young - liberal - open minded Russians in the west who are just silent?
I see some of them visiting familiy and having vacation in Russia. Acting like the war is bad but it doesn't concern them.
Yoohoo vlad are you there ???
This attack has crossed the line so far that it is bound to erode any sympathy the international community has for Russia.
This makes aggressive moves against Russia more feasible for Western Democracies.
No. It really won't matter
@MissUnderstood-f9l and...so?
Not really. After spending months watching the same kind of shit be done in Gaza for months without the west showing anything like the same level of outrage, the rest of the world knows that to westerners, only white lives matter.
Their supporters in the west will find some mental contortion to deflect the blame from RF.

Like #600, you're welcome. Thanks Vlad.

War on children . All over lately ......
I wonder what ordinary Russians think of this atrocity. I know the regime is blaming Ukraine for it, and that's probably enough for the people in the 'blob' to hide behind the veil of 'who knows what's really true?'.
But I wonder if they are upset or outraged when events like this happen.
It's so horrible. My heart aches for the people of Ukraine.
Who would want want to admit their govt and mjlitary is capable of something so terrible. They will be given plausible deniability by their propagandists.
Still, Ukraine's skies are open...
Isn't it like Putin is so jammed into a corner now that he got so desparate that almost nothing, except nukes, can make him feel satisfied?
Responsibility for these destructions lies with the Western allies, who fail to give Ukraine enough air defense capabilities to protect their cities and their critical infrastructure.
This allows Putin to play out his terror - with not much fear, that a Russian main hospital somewhere may go up in flames as answer to this.
The lack of Russian compassion is staggering.
The west has not required to give one penny to Ukraine so it is up to the people of Ukraine.
United23 has a donor campaign for this atrocity. Please, I urge everyone to contribute to this cause.
Big difference: Hamas had stored arms, tunnels and command centers in and under hospitals. Israel also moved patients to safety, with appropriate equipment, while cleaning out the terrorists and weapons.
And Ukraine never attacked Russia before it has been invaded 😏
JDAMS are not hostage rescue tools. Merkava are not hostage rescue tools. Drones are not hostage rescue tools. Using them and pretending that hostage rescue is the goal is disingenuous.

Anybody else jumping over to Vlad's channels to see if he's commented on the attack on Trump yet?
The war is stalemated due to the messianic intransigence of Putin, who regards human life as mere fripperies to his historic mission. Roosevelt once said of Mussolini that anybody can start a war, but it takes somebody to finish one. Russia has been proved to be an anybody. Who is going to be the somebody? Poland?
Putin is dancing around cause Den Haag is just a blonde scarecrow for him.
And all the world's leaders do nothing but tut tut, that was bad.
This is good , really good . And yr a British Subject now but its very fitting for you to care about Russia and Isreal too.
But we need voices from Sudan which is being ravaged by the worst sort of neo Colonialism ,the UAE , Saudi Arabia , Russia trying to get control of agricultural land , water , gold in Darfur. We ve got to try not to be hardened or jaded , we ve got to see each other as humans not avatars on the internet. So yes this pod cast is a good work.
Hey, could you kindly comment on Oleksii Arestovych? What’s the deal with him?

Vlad, at what point is Ukraine justified with attacking Russian children's hospitals? Are they there yet?
The, don't care about childtens. Important his interest and war. But God Judgement come upon them. God bless Ukrainians childrens.
Not much outrage here in germany, sadly.
Only the usual stupid, "why are only 13% Ukrainians working here" and "Selensky is sooo corrupt".
I mostly just feel sick, rather than outraged, too blunted up to feel anything beyond that.
One can really only love this country with a broken heart.
I am in France. We are more numerous than you think. Don't give up! Activism for Ukraine means so much to Ukrainians living in the West.
Despair and apathy is what they want from us, our revenge is to deny them our despair.
I have my doubts and think there is quiet outrage. Some of the most determined people never appear in street demonstrations.
@@jakef.7126 Thank you so much. For everything! All the love to France you are truely our brothers and sisters. Modern germany would be unthinkable without our friendship with France.
As a German with Ukrainian wife and friends I feel you. I am ashamed that such attacks are hardly mentioned but in case Ukraine hits a military target and somehow by any accidemt civilians are killed it is headline.
Would you really expect outrage in Germany, a country that sadly has form on slaughtering innocent children. This is a dreadfully sad reflection on Germany which seems not to have learned the lessons from its own dark, murderous past.
The US isn't even talking about this in the news. It should be front page news, but our news is focused on our Presidential election instead. Of note, the children's hospital is very close to the Finnish and Korean embassies. Besides that, it is surrounded mainly by other medical offices and hospitals. We currently don't know if it was a fragment of the missile or the full missile that struck the building, but based on current pictures of the damage, many experienced military reporters with combat experience suspect it was not a fragment. We will know more later if the information is released. With how inaccurate this missile is, it would have been aimed at the general area, so they intended to hit the hospitals, the embassies, or this was a large fragment of an intercepted missile and a tragedy of war. I hope it wasn't intentional as it is not that Russia aiming weapons at the weak and civilian targets that worries me, but the lack of outrage and response from the Western nations that is utterly unacceptable.
It's widely reported that the particular middle has a typical accuracy of +/- 10-30 meters. If true, they definitely targeted the hospital.
@@mikebarushok5361 It's a war crime either way since there is nothing that is a valid military target within 200 meters of where that missile landed.
