As Russia Advances in Donbass West ‘Seeks Victory’ in Ukraine, Inviting Disaster Instead

The elections in Vietnam, of which you spoke, were scheduled for 1956, not 1958.

The same glory awaits Americans again, except that this time the embassy is in Azovtal lower intestines and the choppers escape record is not so good.

But hey, the usual occult gargoyles sneering behind the curtain are in happy anticipation of lovely bloodbath, fresh adrenochrome in bountiful supply—the only thing that matters to the only entities that matter.
