    I’m just watching it now, wow just wow, just when I thought I couldn’t hate Putin anymore, I don’t think I’ve ever watched anything as distressing as this.

    Just watched this, incredibly sad and very very graphic, really hits home hard, brave piece of journalism showing all the horrors of war.

    Makes you wonder how the human race can inflict such suffering on fellow humans over land and borders.

    You can still go on holiday to Ukraine if you across the border by car from Poland. Apparently Kiev is doing a roaring trade. The Carpathian mountains are still getting a lot of visitors to the castles too.

    There was a Latin proverb. “Homo homini lupus est. “ Man is a wolf to Man. It was true then and remains true today. This Earth could have been a paradise…. Instead, well, Ukraine, Gaza, Afghanistan, parts of Africa.
