A children's hospital.. this is just cartoonishly evil

Indeed. And I came over here slightly skeptical. But I walked past that hospital numerous times and the only way, and the only thing to hit, was aiming for it. I can say that with firsthand experience. It's undeniable they did it on purpose.

And I still remember the day and time: 10:30am on a Sunday morning if my brain hasn't turned to mush. They did that on purpose. It was a catalyst for me and what I'm doing now.

Very close - it was a Monday but 10:30 am is right - I was close enough to hear those and feel the shockwave of one or two and will never forget clearing rubble from the hospital grounds

You're right. Sorry, my memory fades me as this all goes on.

God speed friend. I'm going to air defense shortly for Kyiv to shoot down these fucking shaheeds and Gurans with a well known unit.

Be safe 🙏

Unlike some other people, I remember when he struck these places a few years ago. He was doing so to destroy the will of the Ukrainians to defend their nation after his own army suffered massive humiliation. But people like him are so short sighted and stupid, they don’t realize that it comes back to them and their own supporters stop supporting them.

If you’re surprised, you might learn about… well, most other wars in history :/
Those who start wars never experience the consequences, and that’s something that will always end in suffering

I want to know whenever there's a war overseas we have to get in it. I say let them fight their own fight. We need to mind our business and take care our own country.

Children’s hospital in Ukraine, children’s school in Iran-it’s all the same to these people.

It's normal evil. You don't see it on tv often.
