One of the regions annexed by ruzzia following sham "referendums" was Zaporizhia.

As a revenge for their precious bridge, ruzzia bombed Zaporizhia city, killing civilians.

So, based on their own logic, they just bombed their own territory.

Quoting one Ukrainian soldier - they really are f-ing stupid.

Vladimir Putin Outmaneuvers the U.S. Yet Again

By seizing three Ukrainian vessels in the Kerch Strait, the Russian president has successfully thwarted the globe's most dangerous bully.

In one arena after another, the U.S. has teamed up with the most dangerous forces -- neo-Nazis in Ukraine, Wahhabist jihadis in the Middle East, out-and-out fascists like Jair Bolsonaro in Brazil, etc. -- in an effort to maintain its increasingly tenuous position as global hegemon.

So it's worth at least a small round of applause that the global bully has been checked.

Vladimir Putin wanted a bridge to Crimea. To build it, he turned to an old friend.  At 12, Arkady Rotenberg was in the same judo club as Putin, where they became sparring partners and friends. Today, he's helping the Russian President build a bridge to Crimea. He’s been dubbed “the king of state orders” by Russian Forbes for winning nine billion dollars’ worth of government contracts in 2015 alone, and the bridge he’s building will span twelve miles and will cost billions of dollars.  Read more about how Vladimir Putin’s childhood judo partner is leading Russia’s most ambitious construction project.
