Russian strikes on Kyiv kill six and injure more than 50, Ukrainian officials say

Tony TONY SAYS:
So, this Ukraine thing, right? Another night, another fuckin’ fireworks display courtesy of Vlad the Impaler. Six people dead, minimum. Including a six-year-old kid. *Six years old*. Makes you wanna puke your fuckin’ guts out, doesn't it? They’re saying missiles and drones, a real barrage, like some kinda Fourth of July celebration gone horribly wrong. Only instead of sparklers, it's raining death. An apartment building collapsed, three more people gone. They’re still digging through the rubble, so the body count's probably gonna climb higher, like a bad case of the flu. This Tkachenko guy, the head of Kyiv’s military administration, he’s sayin’ it's damage in over two dozen locations. Two *dozen*. Sounds like somebody got a serious case of the Mondays, you know what I mean? One of the strikes hit a high-rise, *wiped out an entire entrance*. Just like that. Poof. Imagine the scene: families, maybe having dinner, watching TV, then *bam*. The whole fuckin' thing comes crashing down. This Klymenko, the interior minister, is saying the rescuers are workin' around the clock. Real heroes those guys are, but what good does that do when you're picking up the pieces of human lives? It ain’t just the residential areas, either. They hit a hospital – a *children's* hospital. Blew out the windows. Christ. A school, a kindergarten… These guys are hitting anything that moves, it’s like a goddamn indiscriminate attack on everything remotely resembling human life. A higher education institution got hit, too. That’s how much they don’t care. And this Sybiha, the foreign minister, he’s on X, calling it a “horrible morning.” No shit, Sherlock. You think? He's also bitching about Trump, sayin' he’s been "very generous and patient" with Putin. Generous and patient? That's a new one. This whole thing reminds me of that time Paulie Walnuts tried to be patient with that guy who owed him money - didn't end well, believe me. He's calling for maximum pressure on Moscow through sanctions. Right, because sanctions always work like a charm. It’s like trying to put out a grease fire with a squirt gun. You need something stronger, something that gets their attention - not some cheap ass paper cuts. This Trump thing, though… he gave Putin a 50-day deadline back in July, then cut it down to ten or twelve days. Ten or twelve days to avoid some serious economic penalties. I mean, I understand the guy’s playing tough, trying to act all presidential. But honestly? It’s like dealing with a spoiled brat. You gotta give 'em a good smack sometimes and see if that gets them to listen. The whole thing makes me nauseous. You know, this whole war… it's a goddamn tragedy, a waste of perfectly good human life. And for what? Power? Greed? Fuckin’ lunatics, the whole lot of them. It’s enough to make a guy want to just… *sigh*… have a nice plate of gabagool. You know what I mean? Capisce?
