The man and his wife have been identified.
The guy who called his wife and received the "clearance" to rape Ukrainian women is Roman Bykovsky. Born in Orel, served in National Guard troops, famous Dzerzhinsky Division. Then signed a contract with 108th Air Assault Regiment, based in Novorossiysk.
I called both of them, they confirmed their names, voices match with those on the tapped conversation. Hope Roman didn’t have much time to realize "permission" granted by his wife. She told me he’s recovering from the wounds in Sevastopol hospital.

Does not supporting Ukraine equal supporting russia?
Its hard to rationalize that you can be against Ukraine, but not also think Russia is doing a good thing since your people (and I mean people with your mindset) probably believes in this "Nazi Ukraine" trope.

Are you denying nazis in Ukraine too?
Or are you simply marginalizing them so you can try and justify your position?

You certainly have the wests talking points down.
And we all know the wests media is the pinnacle of truth, honesty and integrity.
You cant be a real person who thinks like that? These videos were not doctored. Not fake. These reports with video evidence and audio evidence are not fake. I cant understand how people think like you do. Its not "because we are free thinkers" because you are refusing whats right in front of you. It's got to be something else.
Not only am I real, ive been here much longer and contrubuted much more than you.
You listed the MSM talking points verbatim and you want to argue over integrity?
Being here a long time has sweet f all to do with being right..you must agree with that
I dont disagree. However if someone wants to argue credibility and integrity, its gonna come up.
Same is true surrounding the topic. If one wished to bring morality into the argument, im going to bring up nazis within Ukraines govt.
I dont support either side in this war. The cost has been civilian lives and regular peoples livelyhoods.
Welcome to the world. Its full of mental illness.

Im sure i could do much better actually. However, im not choosing sides.
See the problem with the morality argument yet?

Then you can show me nazis in power and a military unit comprised of them, yes?
Welcome to the world. Its full of mental illness.
Oh, you are making that painfully obvious.
It's cute you think im some dimwit with some mental illness
Cute. You dont posess the mind I consider somebody I care to discourse with.
This place is a maze for psychology students like myself.

Your words, not mine.
Cute. You dont posess the mind I consider somebody I care to discourse with.
And yet, here you are.

Good. So when I say youre displaying textbook projection and gaslighting, I shouldnt have to spell it out
Now, back to your support of nazis. Can you show me anywhere outside of Ukraine where they have positions in govt and a military arm?
Oh god you did it to me again. The first quote. It isnt obvious when you said and i quote "Oh, you are making that painfully obvious." ....Hello?
Gaslighting would be making you believe something isnt true and that you are crazy. I have states nothing but the truth, as hard as it may be to accept. Is what it is.
Gaslighting is you telling me I support nazis. Ironic, aint it. The same thing you tell me I did.
Its us vs you. Enjoy being on the losing side. 8)
people being massacred is not warranted. We have as much of a nazi problem as Ukraine does.
I can agree to that. Im also happy to discuss how it got this far and how far it may go.
Happy to discuss what can be done to mitigate and cease civilian casualties.
Want to invoke an argument? Tell me one side has the moral highground. Tell me one side is more just.
Or, as the case now, tell me im a putin supporter because im not behind Ukraine.
Those Ill argue on.
The reality is, it's been going on for centuries, not a simple answer, or single event, this is long brewing stuff..typically, with Russia being aggressor, then occupier, and so on. There are lots of Russian decent there because of this. I don't know how far it will go, but more than once now, Putin has threatened nuclear options..no f@cking way, does have high moral ground.
A Russian withdraw is about all I can see, no way in hell do I want escalation, via outside sources.
Putin threatened the world with nukes..this does not put him high on my.."people with moral high ground" list..just saying.
I dunno, I never said you were a Putin supporter, but you are kind of excusing him..no?
You could say the same of NATO and the US. Putin likely sees something similar. The difference being, we dont keep the land but instead opt for puppet govts....like Ukraine.
Agreed. How do we convince him of that? Its going to come at some price.
Ive already ceded that i could likely provide proof of putin being more maliciouse that nazis. My whole point was that there is no moral high ground even before the invasion.

Excusing? No
Trying my best to be honest with the facts as I understand them? Absolutely.
Fact is, putin invaded ukraine but he didnt do it because to was a boring february. Getting him out is the best possible scenario.
Another fact. Ukraine cant achieve that alone and they arent.
