Do I still live in the same world I grew up in?

I don’t know about you, but I grew up in a world where terrorism was considered an unquestionable evil. Terrorist attacks were not just condemned—they were met with decisive action. Terrorists were hunted down in every corner of the globe and usually eliminated.

Terrorism has a broad definition, but for me, it’s simple: violence targeting civilians. If the target is a military facility or formation, that’s a conflict or a war—not terrorism.

Back then, terrorism was associated with groups like al-Qaeda or ISIS. I don’t remember a single U.S. official—Democrat or Republican—justifying or defending terrorist acts. But today, the world has changed.

We now live in a world where the line between terrorism and self-defense is increasingly blurred.

I don’t know what things are like on your street, but on mine, attacks on civilians are still evil. And right now, Russians under their dictator’s command are committing terrorist acts against civilians every single day. At the same time, they cynically call Ukrainian special operations—targeting missile carriers that launch daily strikes on Ukrainian cities—"terrorist acts." That’s like calling the killing of Osama bin Laden a terrorist attack.

What’s worse is that the current U.S. president from the Republican Party—a party I once believed had zero tolerance for terrorists—calls Putin a "friend" and questions Ukrainians’ right to self-defense. That’s gaslighting—manipulating public perception. And sadly, it works. Especially when people forget even the most horrific events so quickly.

That’s why I want to remind you what’s actually happening.

And if you live in the United States, please share this message with your fellow citizens. Every fact below can be verified through reliable sources.

In the past 30 years, russia has instigated wars or conflicts in: Transnistria, Abkhazia, South Ossetia, Nagorno-Karabakh, Chechnya and of course, Ukraine.

2014 – The annexation of Crimea
After Ukraine’s Revolution of Dignity and the ousting of Yanukovych, russia invaded Crimea using unmarked soldiers—violating international humanitarian law. At first, Putin lied, claiming they weren’t russian troops, then later admitted it and even awarded them medals. That moment marked, for me, the hypocrisy, cowardice, and lies of a man who calls himself a "leader."
Russia’s hybrid war in Donbas
Since 2014, russia has supported terrorist groups in Eastern Ukraine, supplying weapons, money, and fighters. They orchestrated military operations and eventually "recognized" the so-called independence of the DPR and LPR—a pretext for full-scale invasion.

February 2022 – Full-scale invasion
On February 24, russia launched a war against Ukraine without a declaration. From the first hours, there were missile strikes on residential neighborhoods, critical infrastructure, and attempts to encircle Kyiv.
Since then, russia has conducted a systematic campaign of terror against civilians. International organizations have documented: Mass executions, Torture, rape, kidnappings, attacks on hospitals, schools, and train stations, deportations and mass graves.

Bucha (March 2022)
After liberation, at least 637 bodies were found. Most were civilians executed with their hands tied.

Mariupol (March–May 2022)
Over 20,000 civilians killed. The city was leveled. A drama theater sheltering civilians was intentionally bombed—up to 600 people died.

Kramatorsk, April 8, 2022
A missile with a cluster warhead hit a train station packed with civilians. 63 people were killed, including 9 children.

Kharkiv, March 1, 2022
The regional administration was bombed in broad daylight. 29 civilians were killed.
Yahidne, Chernihiv region, March 2022
360 people, including children, were held in a school basement by Russian troops. 10 died.

Poltava, September 3, 2024
A strike on a military training facility killed 59 and injured over 300. A hospital was damaged.

Okhmatdyt Children’s Hospital, July 8, 2024
A russian Kh-101 cruise missile hit the toxicology unit where children were receiving dialysis. At least two adults were killed, including a doctor. Over 30 were injured, including at least 8 children. There were 627 patients in the hospital, including children from abroad.
Evidence: Missile fragment serial numbers, confirmed by Ukraine’s Security Service and Bellingcat.
Components: American and Swiss-made microchips.
Amnesty International: Classified the strike as a war crime.

June 6, 2025
Another massive missile attack on Kyiv. Three killed, dozens wounded. russia called it a "response" to Ukraine striking russian military targets. By their logic, destroying missile launchers is "terrorism," but bombing hospitals is "justified."
I grew up in Simferopol, Crimea. In my city, I was taught that defending your home and family is what real men do. And that terrorism is evil. You don’t make friends with terrorists. You eliminate them.

I don’t know what you were taught where you grew up. I hope russia never comes to your doorstep like it came to mine. But here’s the difference: we Ukrainians were forced to give up our nuclear weapons. And in return, we were promised security guarantees.
One of the signatories of that promise was U.S. President Bill Clinton—on behalf of the American people.

The United States has always seen itself as a defender of freedom, justice, and human life. You were the ones who stepped in when the world faced evil. You fought the Nazis in World War II. After 9/11, you demanded justice—and the world stood with you.
We upheld our end of the deal. We gave up our nukes because you promised that if danger came, you’d be there. That wasn’t just a politician’s promise. It was a symbol of faith in America’s word.

And now, we can’t just blame others for the world not being what it once was. Because we are the ones shaping this world today. Somehow, we’re building the wrong one. But maybe it’s not too late to realize our responsibility to the future—and to build a world where evil is called by its name.

Kyiv. ❤️

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

Russia doesn`t change its stripes – another massive strike on cities and ordinary life. They targeted almost all of Ukraine – Volyn, Lviv, Ternopil, Kyiv, Sumy, Poltava, Khmelnytskyi, Cherkasy, and Chernihiv regions. Some of the missiles and drones were shot down. I thank our warriors for their defense. But unfortunately, not all were intercepted.

In total, over 400 drones and more than 40 missiles – including ballistic missiles – were used in today’s attack. 49 people were wounded. Unfortunately, the number may increase – people are reaching out for help. As of now, three deaths have been confirmed – all of them were employees of the State Emergency Service of Ukraine. My sincere condolences to their families. All the necessary services are now on the ground, clearing the rubble and conducting rescue operations. All damage will definitely be restored.

Russia must be held accountable for this. Since the first minute of this war, they have been striking cities and villages to destroy life. We’ve done a lot together with the world to enable Ukraine to defend itself. But now is exactly the moment when America, Europe, and everyone around the world can stop this war together by pressuring Russia. If someone is not applying pressure and is giving the war more time to take lives – that is complicity and accountability. We must act decisively.

Lutsk, Ukraine.
And they dare to say that Ukrainians are terrorists.

[Anastasia Rodi (exMagazova) 🌻 @a_magazova]

It was one of the largest attacks on Lutsk. 6 missiles and 15 drones.
Among the damaged buildings was the hotel, where members of the Ukrainian national athletics team were staying at the time of the attack. They had arrived to take part in the championships. All survived 🙏

Friends, your support is urgently needed for the soldiers of the 116th Separate Mechanized Brigade, who are carrying out combat missions in the Kupiansk sector. Recently, the enemy has intensified its activity in this part of the front, though without achieving any significant breakthroughs.

Still, we must respond in a timely manner to prevent more serious consequences. Most of the enemy’s assault operations are being repelled thanks to the coordinated and professional work of our drone operators.

To continue their vital missions, the unit urgently needs a DJI Mavic 3 Enterprise drone
