There is no mistake, this is planned genocide of the Ukraine people.

This is a picture that appeared in the Washington Post regarding the bombing of civilians in a theater. 

There should be no forgiveness for these atrocities. The Russians knew exactly where their bombs were landing and who they were killing. Kindly, examine this portion of the picture.

The bombed theater is the upper right corner. The other buildings appear to be residential. They are hit with bombs, but, the building furthest to the left in the middle edge of the picture is a church. It is untouched by Russian bombs. The Russians know exactly what they are doing, they have intelligence regarding this city of Mariupol. They more than likely have detailed maps of every inch of Ukraine.

This is deliberate genocide by Putin and his commanders. Putin is afraid to be seen as godless. How can diplomacy ever work with such a person? He will do this again and again until he has what he wants. Putin has violated every treaty he ever signed.

New satellite imagery (click here) collected Saturday morning shows the damage done to Ukraine’s stately Mariupol Drama Theater during Russian shelling this week. The image, which was provided to The Washington Post by Maxar Technologies, shows more than half the roof collapsed. The remaining portion is mangled, buckling inward. Rubble is visible on both sides of the building, and portions of the interior appear to be burned.

Mariupol, a southern Ukrainian port on the Sea of Azov, had been cut off from the outside world for more than two weeks when a Russian airstrike hit the theater Wednesday.

Hundreds of women, families with young children and the elderly had sought shelter in the theater this week, according to local officials. The Post was not able to verify that account. Little independent reporting is available from the besieged city. Internet access is scarce, if available at all, and many reporters and photographers covering Mariupol have left the city because of safety concerns....
