Ukrainian priest abducted and tortured to death
The russian invaders have, reportedly, killed 59-year-old Stepan Podolchak, a #priest of the Orthodox Church of #Ukraine and head of a church in occupied Kalanchak (Kherson oblast). While the occupiers claim that Father Stepan died “of a heart attack”, this was two days after the russians abducted him from his home and took him away, barefooted, and with a bag over his head, having turned his home upside down
@EugeneMcParland Yes, Russians doing what Russians do and have done for hundreds of years.
I'm old. A big chunk of my DNA is Estonian. Some of the people who raised me were Born in Estonia, in the "Russian Empire", in the 1800s, and were well educated. They told me many things about the Russians, none of them complimentary.
The Russians are not our friends. They are nobody's friends. They have a unique, almost psychopathic culture.
What's long amazed and impressed me is how a country with such a small economy can have such a large influence on the world. One thing is obvious. The Rus are very smart and able to leverage what little they have into being a world power.
