Pramila Jayapal on peace talks with Kremlin over Ukraine

[Duncanpup]

The Democrats who are calling on President Biden to hold peace talks with kremlin.
Why would you even suggest this , Example Bucha rape of a young child three years old by Russian soldier or they rape young girls.
I have read where they the Russian army used electrocution on Ukrainian Women's soldiers breast and vagina as they were prisoners of war to interrogate these soldiers.

At first in February I had sympathy for Russian soldiers as former infantry soldier. I’m old man now 56 the Russians didn’t want to be in Ukraine. Yet after I read of Russian army rapes and torture of Ukrainians the Russians are not army professional they’re scum so we do not try and broker a peace. We arm Ukraine to keep Ukrainian army on offensive to kill Russians.

1. My mind is just boggling at this letter!

[Celerity]

10. it was a 4 month old or so letter, now out of date, the big question is WHY Jayapal sandbagged the

other 29 signers and realised it NOW, with no consultations, no heads up, no chance to revise it as the situation is now much worse than in June/July when it was signed/written.

What a foolish move by her, a person who I thought was far more savvy than that.

2. I totally just lost all respect for her

Idiotic.

[PortTack]

13. Same..this isn't the first time she's has done something that is less than supportive of Dems

3. How may of them were calling for Iraq to enter into peace talks?

Or for a random third nation (Russia, perhaps?) to mediate peace talks between the U.S. and Iraq?

Yeah, probably damn near zero. They were calling the U.S. imperialistic aggressors and demanded we leave immediately. Why do some of these progressives seem to have such a hard time condemning Russia with the same forcefulness they condemned us for our actions in Iraq? And while there were certainly some inexcusable atrocities committed by Americans in Iraq, there are many more and even more horrendous acts being committed by Russia in Ukraine. Again, why is this so difficult for a certain segment of them to condemn?

4. Only 30 members of the Progressive Caucus signed but the letter is

Still on the front page of the PC website. WTF?

[nycbos]

7. 30 too many

[JustAnotherGen]

5. It's bullshit

And I'm thrilled my Congressman did not sign it.

6. What the hell are they thinking?

When I lived in King County Pramilla was my rep and I thought the world of her. Now not so much. I would like to see a list of all 30 Dems who signed this letter. I am sick to my stomach over this. If I still lived in Seattle I would never vote for her again.

17. survey of Ukrainians: 86% support armed resistance against Russia even in the face of bombardment

only 10% favor negotiations

I would defer to the judgement of the victims of Russian atrocity rather than those who seem content with giving away a chunk of someone else's country (Musk, Jayapal or anyone else)
