Lab-Created Bullshit
Some western observers don’t quite understand why General Igor Kirillov was a legitimate military target (see: what is a “general”?) or understand that lying war criminals are actually bad. Kirillov was behind the dumb propaganda that there were US/Ukrainian biolabs about to threaten the RU/UKR border. I always thought this was a little bit of a backhand at the US for claiming mobile biolabs in Iraq before 2003. But it is totally not the case and never was. And the fuckers who play games with the Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant have no business talking up Ukrainian “dirty” nuclear bomb threats anyway.
Which brings me to Elon Musk, incoming US president in fact if not in name, who is goofing with a government shutdown even before his old-age addled proxy is sworn in, threatening the GOP Speaker (presumptive) of the next Congress and also lying his dumb goofy pale face off. He says this on his dumb loss-leader propaganda site:
Remember me just recently pointing out Liz Churchill to you? Well, this is her, boosting hypnotically cult-like speaking pro RU and pro-Assad Trump DNI hopeful Tulsi Gabbard: (snip-embedded tweet on the page, also see some ‘shtuff’ from this blog’s nemesis, Libs Of TikTok)

These things happen in War. That’s why it’s called war, I can only recall one incident of another general specifically not trying to kill his opposite number and that was at Waterloo 1815.
An artillery officer had seen Napoleon, and had asked permission to fire on the ‘Corsican Ogre’, and Wellington had replied:
“No! I’ll not allow it. It is not the business of commanders to be firing upon one another”
Other than that. It’s War and all normal rules of behaviour get subsumed in The Fearful Logic of War, which is basically, destroy the foe either materially or by breaking its will (equally terrible). And that’s why War is not a good thing to start. Those who do, in the long run do not always get to have a word in the final say.
Folk trying to be pro- Russia either because they are on the Left and still imbued with the ideas that East is Good and West is Bad, or on The Right had like Putin because he angers liberals and does the opposite, are deluding themselves that he will place nice with them. He dances to a very old and complex tune which is a preservation of Russia (he probably doesn’t realise either) at all costs, and all outside of Russia who back him are just ‘Useful’.
