A lot of people support the government. A lot of Russian people support that war.

It was the same in Germany. The government may be evil, but it usually has the support of a lot of its people.

We shall see how long that lasts as their money evaporates. I have a student in Moscow who says none of the ATMs were working as of a couple of days ago while prices are skyrocketing.

Also, tens of thousands of Germans didn't protest the invasion of Poland. I think support for this war may be wide but not very deep.

This is brainwashing a notch even worse than Fools News and ilk.

Rinse repeat for the folks in N. Korea.

Sarcastically use DEAR LEADER thanks to that clown.

What is it with psycho leaders and awful hair or none any way?

In any case they all deserve to be shot dead where they stand and a couple extra for good measure, I've seen it, it's 100% effective!
They use fear.... they are the cowards.
