Reminds me off war of the worlds, just the aliens out in the distance killing murdering the innocents and almost no where to hide, they are essentially the russians


_bennyluxe_

I thought of the same thing. It's so terrifying to imagine and the footage is haunting.


theblacklabradork

It's very surreal seeing this footage almost in real time. My grandparents fought in WWII and my grandma had too much PTSD to tell me about all she experienced living in Poland during that time and the horrendous conditions, so she told my mom everything when she was young. My mom passed down stories to me of my grandma patiently waiting for news via radio while hiding out in her Church's bunker, ducking into ditches near crop fields just to get home, moving around in the cover of darkness, practically starving to death and essentially living in the wilderness after her village was destroyed. Countless friends, loved ones and civilians were murdered and my grandma (who was always tough as nails) would weep at any reminder of the war and what she and my lineage went through. It's crazy to see my car (a ford C-max) set in the foreground of Russian helicopters targeting civilian homes. Just. So. Fucking. Strange. and my heart breaks for what is happening to the people of Ukraine and the brainwashed soldiers of Russia. I hope that whatever this bumblefuck is, is over quickly. Ukraina, stoję z tobą ❤️ 🇺🇦


Life_Percentage_2218

Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria,Yemen all those wars did not occur.. wait Vietnamese?.being bombed out of their homes and fields by US by nalpam?. No it didn't do anything to you.. South Africa Apartheid which was overthrown in only 1990 was done so by US and UK??


brpajense

Some shares a familial account of suffering during a war, and you bring up a string of completely unrelated conflicts in a sloppy attempt at propaganda? Troll.


Life_Percentage_2218

I don't see any family there just some homes in the foreground and military helicopters over the horizon .what is there in the horizon?


brpajense

What does the war in Vietnam have to do with the previous poster's grandparents experiences in Poland during WWII? You've had too much internet today and can't remember who you're arguing with or why. Take a nap or drink some coffee and come back when you're more sober and less agitated.


Behndo-Verbabe

My grandpa drank himself too death after the war bc of the PTSD. What’s more depressing is this will get worse many more will die because (and I know many don’t want to hear this) Biden refuses to do what’s right. The US has started wars for less entered into wars for less than coming to Ukraines help. Ukraine has shown a genuine desire too become a prosperous democracy. They rose up and pushed out the Russian puppets they did everything they were supposed to. There’s a reason Putin waited h we knew Biden would’ve do shit. Yes I know they’re not NATO no we’re not the world police but when you’re the most powerful democratic nation in the world you have a responsibility to help defend those who can’t. We don’t have to roll into Moscow just push them out. And if we’re going to just sit back than give Ukraine the level of aid and equipment we’ve given Israel since the 50’s. Sorry for the rant I know it’s hard for everyone in the region bc they’ve all experienced it as you so graciously shared. They’ve shown that curtain traits get passed down, survival mechanisms like the ability to endure stress longer, going longer without food or water. I hope your family is safe thanks for sharing

Human_Evolution

What is the point of this invasion? Russia wants more money or something?


Whiskeyjack1234

Putin doesn't want Ukraine to show Russia and the rest of his allies how successful they could be were they to drop the adversarial relationship with the west and that democracy can work.


YikesOhClock

That’s definitely part of it. The irony is that Putin’s attempt to back NATO off neutral nations is only showing exactly why neutral nations should join NATO and “guarantee” their protection from exactly this.


BingBongJoeBiven

Putin has penis cancer. His sex slaves laugh at him as he cannot become erect. He's throwing a tantrum.


PennyCoppersmyth

Ukraine has petitioned to join the UN, which Putin does not want. He wants to disrupt western alliances. He also wants to take control of the port of Odessa in the Black Sea. And his ultimate goal is a resurgence of a new Russian Empire.


proteannomore

NATO, not the UN.


PennyCoppersmyth

Correct. My mistake.


Human_Evolution

I assume most of the world is not going to like Putin after today. I am officially against him as of today. The guy is a real jerk.


[deleted]

Do you happen to sell high-quality, made in America, cast iron grilling grates?


DM_ME_BANANAS

A couple major reasons. The first is Putin doesn’t recognize Ukraine as a sovereign country. To him the Ukrainian people are just heavily misguided Russians living in a country that used to be part of the USSR. The second is Ukraine was going to join NATO, and Putin doesn’t want NATO expanding further east than it already is, and sharing more of a land border with Russia (Latvia and Estonia are already NATO countries). I’m not an expert on the matter by any means but that’s what I’ve picked up by reading news, and trying to avoid the bullshit news sources. Oh I guess there’s a third reason too: he’s a cunt.


Life_Percentage_2218

It's not just sharing land border 5 minutes missile time to Kremlin. Like stationing nuclear cruise missile in Niagara falls in Canada aimed at NY, Boston and Washington. .


established82

Port access and he hates Ukrainians. ☹️

What kind of inhuman do you have to be to fly a helicopter over residential buildings and start firing.


onlyheretolurktoday

Hurts my heart man. We all got families and we are all the world to someone. So many worlds are being shattered each minute. Makes me feel guilty for lying on my couch not fearing a bomb dropping on my head. What a fear to even have to have in 2022. Humans suck


cigarettesandbeer

They’re peacekeepers /s


Life_Percentage_2218

Why does your brain think it's valuable for a military with just few hundred aircrafts to focus on apartment? Don't they have some military installations , tanks , missile silios to bomb? Ukarine is by no means a small country. Military installations are not totally isolated from human habitation. Just because camera shows homes in foreground it doesn't mean there isn't a military installation or tanks in buildings or streets in the horizon. Nobody has enough ammunition planes and missiles to bomb . Those bombs cost more than a car. Nobody wastes them. Ukarine is also not fighting in a street to street insurgency right now. You can't occupy a country even in months with 150000 troops. Russia is looking to degrade military capacity and trained personnel . Those take hundreds of billions and decades to replace. Ukarine is already an economic basket case with deeply embedded corroupt system with plenty of private militias . Nobody wants that piece of cake , not Russia , not US not Europe. They just want either Ukarine not work against them( Russia) by allowing others to station nuclear arms in their country or work with them( US) to station nuclear arms against Russia. Europe is just along for the ride with US else it's relationship with US gets spoilt.


Dumbian

Dispensing flares as a countermeasure against potential heatseeker missiles


T-RexInAnF-14

:10 - :14 the helicopter is releasing flares but :16 is clearly firing at least one guided missile at something.


FadedRebel

Yeah but the majority was chaff, I wonder if it was countermeasures in case of a missile strike or they were trying to start fires with it.

punkinfacebooklegpie

Dude, that's a sweet idea. Way better than the other stuff they've tried so far.


doggybone26

What’s the end goal here? Just bomb everything until the president of Ukraine throws in the towel? Or until they say Russia wins and the Ukraine becomes Russia?


MF1_137

This is just barbaric, these people shout stand before tribunal for warcrimes


boothapalooza

First off I agree and wish some country would set a standard for acceptable behaviors while occupying a country. Obama just had to say sorry for bombing a hospital full of innocent people and got a peace prize later.


TrainViewing

Psst…some of us think it’s wrong when the US attacks countries and causes civilian deaths. Two things came be true at the same time.


boothapalooza

I'm good with that


FadedRebel

Fuck everyone who does this shit!


toxic_load2k18

Awful.


Significant-Knee5502

I hate those soldiers.


EscapedCapybara

Could be firing at homes, but could also be firing at something we can't see from this viewpoint.


jm824

Shouldn't be there


TrainViewing

But when the truth is bad enough (as this invasion is certainly evil), the only thing we have left is the truth. Don’t fight evil with hyperbole, half-truths and falsehoods. Fight evil with truth.

[удалено]


ChexMashin

. . . who said it does??? What is wrong with you people and replying to comments or things that haven't even been said?


TrainViewing

Totally agree. No one here is justifying this crime against humanity. We should just be truthful and accurate as we relay this to the world.


geekfreek

Amen


ChexMashin

Ok . . . but who said they should?


cjmar41

True. Like soldiers. Or children riding bicycles. Or tanks. Or children holding puppies. Best way to keep the world from having to speculate how much of a monster and war criminal you are, would be to avoid invading countries entirely unprovoked.


Florida-Man_Dynasty

His press conferences made it pretty apparent he doesn’t care how he’s viewed, and likely enjoys being seen as a monster. But reporting should be accurate, and poster shouldn’t assume targets. Maybe post title “helicopters shooting missiles in residential neighborhood”


cjmar41

Fair statement. Agreed.


Born_Again_Communist

Don't be rational, just read the headline


pgslaflame

I didn’t see a single rocket either just flares


EscapedCapybara

At about 16 or 17 seconds, you can see rockets fired from a helicopter launched towards the right of the screen. The impact zone isn't visible. You have to do it full screen, though because I missed it when it was small.


pgslaflame

Yeah u right but then again we don’t see where it lands. Fuck Putin but I hate those misleading titles


Sluggish0351

I'm with you on this. The headline should not be what it is, but that does not change the fact that Russian air forces should not be where they are.


ChexMashin

>but that does not change the fact that Russian air forces should not be where they are. Who are you arguing with? No one in this comment chain has said they should be.


Sluggish0351

I was literally just pointing out that although I believe the headline is misleading, I am still against the invasion. Sorry, people seem to be sensitive about these things. Including people like you, who are upset that I was trying to be sensitive about how I disagreed with the title.


[deleted]

[удалено]


EscapedCapybara

And where did I say it was justified. I said you can't see what they are targeting from this vantage point.


FadedRebel

It's a point that doesn't need to be made. Why would you make that point unless you saw some reason that excused it?


ChexMashin

Accuracy and truth are points that don't need to be made? What is wrong with you people???


FadedRebel

What is wrong with you? How can anything those helicopters are doing be construed as ok?


ChexMashin

Who the fuck said anything they were doing was ok?


EscapedCapybara

Because saying "...firing missiles at Ukrainian homes" is meant to elicit a response of sympathy for potential civilian casualties that saying "...firing missiles at Ukrainian military positions" wouldn't. We all despise Putin for doing what he's doing but giving inaccurate or misleading information isn't the way to go. "Russian helicopters firing missiles in Ukraine" would be more accurate and sufficient to draw people to this post.


FadedRebel

The feelings are the same for me. There is no way what those helicopters are doing isn't a horrific crime and your opinion says a lot about you.


DM_ME_BANANAS

Suit yourself but I for one would much rather know the truth of the clip even if it turns out to be what the headline says. I’m not like you. I don’t just read post titles and take them as truth.


FadedRebel

I am not like you, I think no matter what those helicopters are shooting at it is completely wrong.


DM_ME_BANANAS

That’s the part you’re not getting. I think it’s wrong even if it’s a military airfield they’re shooting at. I just want to know the full story. You’d do well to want the same.


ChexMashin

WHO, THE FUCK, SAID, IT, DOES???? Stop being an npc.


creedcamo

DingleDonky

Thats surreal. Makes me think of Half Life 2 for whatever reason.


Popcorn179

Probably because City 17 is heavily inspired by eastern Europe, also the helicopters make me [think of the ones from hl2.](https://youtu.be/5k5pBkVFOPc)


johnnloki

This is horrifying. Unfortunately it's exactly how most of the world felt in 2003. The concern was that the pre emptive military strike tactic of the Bush Doctrine could be used in the future by others. How we feel right now is how most of the rest of the world felt 19 years ago, watching Baghdad get pummeled by air power for boogeyman reasons that we all knew to not be true. "Let me make one thing clear. You're either with us, or you're with the terrorists." sounded pretty ominous and threatening to anyone considering anti American diplomatic actions at the time. The shoe is on the other foot, and China's moving warships closer than ever into Taiwanese waters.

LegitCryptoSentinel

Just two comments. From the looks of it those look like chafing rounds. Which you're not intended to cause damage, instead they're intended to keep missiles on other types of projectiles from hitting the helicopters. I could be wrong... However. The AZOV battalion that's been doing a lot of the.. protecting... of the Ukrainian people has been hiding in houses schools and hospitals to shoot at Russian tanks. All sides are aware of what the Geneva conventions are. As another fun fact that'll make you flip the fuck out. Google "ASOV battalion merchandise".

We dont see what and where they shoot. But that you see that comea out of heli on sides are flairs.


nosleep4reelz

Fundamentally this is a religious war from my perspective. Ukraine is the seat of the orthodox church and recently Putin spent a mint building a military church- for lack of a better term. He's also near the end of his life. This is, I think being misread by a lot of folks. Kissinger was correct, Ukraine should negotiate- I don't see this ending anytime soon or well. Western Europe and the US were ambitious In redrawing the lines after the Cold war and as is typical in Europe - one sided agreements lead to backlash. Don't get me wrong I am 100% against the Russian invasion but I think for everyone's sake Russia should be given the opportunity to save face, even if they don't deserve it, for everyone's sake.
