Captain Darling: So you see, Blackadder, Field Marshall Haig is most anxious to eliminate all these German spies.

General Melchett: Filthy hun weasels, fighting their dirty underhand war!

Captain Darling: And fortunately, one of our spies…

General Melchett: Splendid fellows, brave heroes risking life and limb for Blighty!

Blackadder goes forth General Hospital 1989

There are some things that are simply silly and this is one of them:

-Russia accused Ukraine of carrying out an air strike against a fuel depot in the Russian city of Belgorod on Friday, an incident the Kremlin said set an unfavourable tone for peace talks with Kyiv.

Ukraine’s foreign minister, Dmytro Kuleba, said he could not confirm or deny reports of Ukrainian involvement in the strike as he did not have military information. The Ukrainian Defence Ministry and the general staff did not respond to requests for comment.

Accused?

Russia has invaded Ukraine and the two nations are currently at war with Ukraine. One of the general realities of war is that the enemy tends to make a habit of shooting at you and at military targets like ammo depots and fuel dumps.

How DARE the Ukrainians attempt to take out an enemy fuel depot inside Russian territory. Don’t they understand that while the Russians reserve the right to strike at targets in Ukraine they do not accept Ukraine’s right to do the same in Russia!

That response was so stupid you would have thought it came from the Biden Administration.
