Russia General "Murdered".

'Murder' was mentioned in a Radio 4 news bulletin this afternoon.  Was that judgemental?  Later reports say he was killed.

Assassinated might be a better description.

Murder isn't the right word.

It is an emotive word, it doesn't fit the circumstances.

Yeah murdered, like many many Ukrainians have been on Trump's mate Putin's orders.  Not to mention many of Russia's youth; and apparently non-existent members of other nations who are not are all aiding Putin.

Just another casualty of the war.

I don't have any problem with generals facing risk of death in the same way that the soldiers and civilians on the front line do.

Now, if only the politicians faced the same risk as front line soldiers, perhaps wars would end sooner or not even start.

Tomus at 8.41pm - I couldn't possibly agree more if tried.

[Deskdiary]

if *I* tried.

Hollywood tried their best to spice things up politician-wise with the self-healing ear drama.
