  1. "I don't know if a no-fly zone will bring a nuclear war." --- that's a humanitarian message? No wonder video game images were passed off as coming from this war.

  2. He seems irrational. Supporting a no-fly zone even if it risks a nuclear war? Delirium! An immediate cease-fire needs to be negotiated.

  3.  @martinpike803  The power plant wasn't bombed.

  4.  @wyskass861  WHO takes Putin's word? THIS ISN'T A GAME.

  5.  @wyskass861  We need people of real stature to find a way to get to a cease-fire as soon as possible. Beating the war drum will get more innocent people killed. It is that simple. There is nothing to be gained from escalation, nothing.

  6.  @gc3117  Thanks for making my point. Beware of passive voice, no agent in times of peace, much less now. And what, exactly, is a "projectile?" How does that translate to "was bombed?" That doesn't even support "was shelled."

  9.  @wyskass861  Supporting a no-fly zone even if it risks a nuclear war? That was what he said. That is for the benefit of others? Ask the Japanese what they think.

  10.  @wyskass861  I was not quoting Putin, or crediting him, or discrediting him. I was quoting Sean Penn based on what he said in this video. Which was unhinged. No one seems to think they need to be responsible and sober, or to tone down their rhetoric. They are bloviating for their own perceived benefit and nothing more.

  13.  @tinamiller9599  Supporting a no-fly zone even if it risks a nuclear war? That was what he said. No, he is not more upstanding than the rest of us, or doing anything "for humanity" with his rhetoric. What is needed is a cease-fire, not an escalation. My GOD. When did everyone lose their minds?

  14. Get some sober people to drop the nonsense and negotiate an immediate cease-fire. "Fight . . . Whatever happens" means only one thing, more death. Chris Hedges was a war correspondent, listen to him. "Plummeting up a cliff?" "I don't know if no-fly zones will cause a nuclear war?" Insanity.

  15.  @gc3117  I don't know that it's even true. Reports of flares causing that fire may or may not be accurate. They call it the fog of war for a reason.

  16. The stupidity is par for the course.

  17.  @sandralewis2050  Well, my parents met in a refugee camp, and I have volunteered to take in Ukrainian refugees if needed, so this cheap rhetoric and call for escalation (to sound pretty on television?) is repulsive to me. How many veterans are you close to? I don't know one who would be so irresponsible. Have you all lost it?

  18.  @sandralewis2050  You are talking about escalating a war. You have no idea of what you are concretely talking about. Of COURSE I'm not going to support your delirium, because that is what it is. Get a grip. "Pitiful, pathetic, resiliency, courage, democracy" --- these are just words to you at this moment. They help no one, and have no bearing on anything that can bring actual peace, which needs to come now. Get a GRIP.

  19.  @sandralewis2050  Every week, people prove to be even crazier than I thought they were. I expected hitting new lows to end when Trump finally left. Well, I still have hope. I guess recovery will take time.
