NATO “helping” Ukraine has filled the graveyards with 500,000 Ukrainian men.
War requires consent of the public and Sky, BBC, msm disinformation has propped up this farce.
Russian shovel and dishwasher.

Very, very good, well balanced politics.

Russia shot down the F-16 fighter plane given by America to Ukraine, Zelski removed the chief air commander of his own country to save America's cut nose, F-16 fighter plane fails in battle ground
He is lying through his rotten teeth
Hitler behaved just like this in his final days before the fall of Berlin.
The writing is on the wall for Zelensky.
India destroyed one F16 using an old Mig21 during the fight with Pakistan
Boris Johnson never accept his responsibility for causing the mass murder of hundreds of thousands of people.
Does sky even read the comments here? How long are they going to spin the truth? Telling the truth of the matter would help everyone, incl Ukraine.
I sense the narrative is slowly starting to reflect the reality facing 🇺🇦 and the Elensky regime
Sky news psychologically preparing it's brainwashed viewers for the inevitable Russian victory that many independent experts have been predicting from the beginning! 😂
look at this clowns costume today…lol
Why, because the war is going so well , according to Sky .
the MSM and the MIC will still say the war must go on.
😂😀😃
This has to be an accidental "blue on blue" take down by Ukrainian air defence. If the other hypothesis was true, that the aircraft was lost to debris strike from an intercepted missile or drone, then the likelihood is that the pilot could of ejected.
The fact that the aircraft was lost without the pilot being able to eject suggests it was destroyed with little warning by a Ukrainian SAM.
The biggest tragedy is the loss of an experienced trained pilot not the aircraft. Deepest condolences to the pilots family and the AFU. RIP 🇺🇦
Is this thing don't have a parachute. How the pilot die?
When Prof. Clarke speaks, I listen and think 👍
A Russian shovel hit the F-16, that’s why it’s classified as
Something ain't quite right with the Kiev regime.
F-16 needs servicing and foreign engineers , may be american . Very dangerous job for huge money .
Analysis is b.s
I don't understand the journalism in the west has become the puppet for western world politics. They only show & tell what the politics want. He is blatantly telling a lie about Ukraine has made a gain by going in to kursk & the army moral etc
'They did not tell anyone' – more lies Michael, do brits pay for lying, because I will be fired for lying .
Don't worry, he will be getting another job, he knows too much, and they are short of staff.
Why cannot Clarke simply say that he does not know how the F-16 came to be destroyed?
His Patriot ism was not in the right direction
Lots of lies being told here😂
How does Clarke know all this? He's an academic and I'm willing to bet he's never been on the front line. Reading all those books must give him some kind of psychic ability?
i dont know how clarke can repeatedly lie with a straight face,i wonder how much bae and rayheon is paying him
Im sure the rest of the six pilots traumatised them don’t want do friendly fire with Russia
Simple , it is almost impossible to embarrass President Putin, but the poor little green man from the shtetl embarrasses so easily.
WWG1WGA 🎉💪
Only Great God know 😢
Omg the bullshit coming out of this guy mouth 😂
He wouldn't be sacked for losing an aircraft.
first time hearing Clarke saying something objective
Sounds like blue on blue
More lies and propaganda.
