Three doctors and a paramedic spoke with The Associated Press to offer new details from a March 9 airstrike that happened when communications were all but severed, and to counter fresh Russian misinformation. They left the city separately in private cars, as have thousands from Mariupol in recent weeks, and are now scattered in other towns around Ukraine and in Poland.
Their testimony, along with AP reporting, AP footage from the scene and interviews with munitions experts who analyzed the size of the shell crater, directly contradicts Russian claims that there was no airstrike. Russian officials have repeatedly tried to sow doubt about atrocities in Mariupol, the shattered city in eastern Ukraine that is a key Russian military objective. In particular, Russia has made great efforts to falsely blame the death and destruction in the city on Ukrainian shelling.

You can't trust governments during a war, they all try to win. And our government doesn't even know right from wrong, or male and female, citizen or illegal, who is liable for high gas prices, the racism of SCOTUS nomination, the cause of inflation, etc. You get what you vote for sometimes.

Does it really matter? Where is the UN? Sympathy does not get it, this will be viewed as another German Type genocide, while the global community watched and did nothing of substance.

I don't much care about the global community. I care about the United States and their adherence to the constitution. We should lead, not fall in step. I'm tired of kissing the butts of all this riff raff that want us to foot the bill. We are America. Act like it.

Terrible. And still we dither at providing tangible aid to Ukraine while justifying incremental steps to put OUR boots on the ground. Why?
