We think the usual Russian method of war is to destroy cities and kill nationalists.saw it, still dont understand real reasons behind it.

Isn't it more effective to damage military objects or infrastructure? What's the point to make Ukrainians angrier and giving them more reasons for revenge?It’s probably deliberate terror bombing to try to damage the morale.
I could see why they destroying frontline cities with artillery barrage. But striking theater in Vinnica with ballistic missiles that cost millions and are limited in stock? Insanity.We think the usual Russian method of war is to destroy cities and kill nationalists

It’s hard to attack military targets, they tend to shoot back at you. It’s much easier to bomb children.Isn't it more effective to damage military objects or infrastructure? What's the point to make Ukrainians angrier and giving them more reasons for revenge?
I don't give a flying ** about MoD bull**. I asking for real reasons behind shooting in theatre. Its clearly wasnt military object, its concert hall. 5 minutes in Google and you know about it. Its rhetorical question, I totally understand that no-one here can answer it.The Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation
3 out 5 rockets were shoot down by AA, anyway. Dont think there is big difference between military targets or civilian targets in same city.It’s hard to attack military targets, they tend to shoot back at you. It’s much easier to bomb children.
There's a fighter plane right there (looks like a Fishbed, if I recall my F19 Stealth Fighter). Clearly a military target.
And they missed it.

Don't worry. Pretty sure the Finnish aren't interested in invading Russia.Meanwhile, 2 bombers flying over my house and jokes about Finnish invasion.
Said same right before RF invasion in Ukraine about Russians 🤔Don't worry. Pretty sure the Finnish aren't interested in invading Russia.
Viipuri is in such ****** state, I am not sure if anyone here would be against Finnish invasion. Basically, only thing that Soviets did in Karelia was exploitative use of local woods. Such a wasted potential.Well you never know, the russians never gave back part of the territory they kept after Stalin's special military operation
Who the hell said Russia wasn't interested in invading Ukraine? It's been on their agenda for three decades at least.Said same right before RF invasion in Ukraine about Russians 🤔
Almost any sane person in RF. Even invasion of Crimea was stupid move that cut our savings in half and was painful for economy. Why would anyone need half of Ukraine demolished by 8 year war? Its dead weight and Iran-tier sanctions, even if blitzkrieg was successful and casualties were Crimea-like.Who the hell said Russia wasn't interested in invading Ukraine?

The drawback is there are a lack of sane people in power in RF, unfortunately.Almost any sane person in RF.

Unless Google manages to appeal the decision, it will have to fork over approximately $374 million for not restricting content that goes against Russian interests.
Russia will conduct a special military operation against Google by.... focusing all of its state-sponsored hackers to attack it?Russia fines Google $370M for refusing to bend to Putin’s war propaganda
YouTube’s policy prevents the removal of videos documenting the Ukraine war.arstechnica.com
Now, Google in Russia is effectively shut down anyway, and the subsidiary even declared bankruptcy last month. So... what legal requirement does Google actually have to pay any of these fines going forward anyway? The article notes:
But says who? If the company isn't really operating anymore in Russia and don't seem to really care how Russia responds to its actions, what can Russia actually do to extract any payment? I suspect nothing and the company response will effectively be "Good luck with that," but I'm legitimately curious what route Russia could do to get any more money from Google when they already froze their Russian bank accounts and pilfered the money from them before the Russian arm shut down.
I wonder what happens if you search for this on the Google website. Does it come back with the reply:Russia fines Google $370M for refusing to bend to Putin’s war propaganda
