Bloodbath in Bucha
Providing arms to people… "most of them farmers". Our government seems to understand that the war in Ukraine is being fought mostly by untrained civilians… https://t.co/wo1OIpBUTu

I wish I could un-see the images from Bucha. The streets are littered with bodies, and it is said that Russian troops killed every man, aged 16-60.
The Russian army slaughtered every male they could find between 16 and 60 in Bucha. Putin’s orders. Evil doesn’t begin to describe it. https://t.co/bsUbQZcSiA

It reminds me of what happened in Fallujah. Our troops dropped fliers on the city to warn of an attack, telling civilians to flee. After giving them time to do so, our troops took the city and shot every man of fighting age.
This is exactly what I thought would happen to cities in Western Ukraine, where residents were militarized as volunteers for Ukraine’s Territorial Defense, and were told to defend against Russian advancement. Zelenskyy did not send trained soldiers to protect his people, but left them to defend themselves.

While Zelenskyy uses these images to gin up animosity toward Russia, the blood of those people are also on his hands. He should have never provoked this war (with his Crimea Platform), knowing full well that he didn’t have a strong enough army to protect his people with.

All this shows is that 11 of these un-uniformed bodies were there during Russian occupation. 11. And who is to say that they weren't combatants? 11. https://t.co/jPCdFaisnr
