Killing Fields

In Zaporizhzhia, Ukraine, the Russians occupy the largest nuclear power facility in Europe. The Ukrainians claim they are using the plant as a military base, and storing weapons there. Now, the plant is being shelled, risking a nuclear catastrophe. Both sides are blaming the other for the shelling, and the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) claims to not know which side to believe. 

First, who would be so irresponsible as to use a functioning nuclear power facility as a military base? (The Russians.) Who would be so reckless as to fire on that military base? (The Ukrainians. Why would the Russians fire on a plant it controls?)

What is happening in Ukraine is similar to what happened when the Germans invaded the USSR in 1941: Total War. The destruction Germany visited upon Russia, and what the Russians gave back in return, is unlike anything that transpired between Germany and its enemies on the Western Front - France, England, the U.S., etc. The eastern front was the ultimate "killing field." Twenty-five million Russians died in less than four years, as did over five million Germans. 

Today, America and its NATO allies are pouring advanced weaponry into Ukraine on a biblical scale. That, along with Russia's grim determination to subjugate Ukraine, threatens to turn that land into the "killing fields" of the 21st century.
