Zelensky declares martial law

[InChrist]

So what are your thoughts about this?

“Ukraine president Volodymyr Zelensky declares martial law, makes all opposition to his government a crime, and takes control of the free press and turns it into state controlled media.


Put your feelings about Russia off to the side for just a moment, and focus on what Ukraine president Volodymyr Zelensky is doing, right now, in his country and to his people. In one fell swoop, Zelensky has 1) declared martial law, 2). seized control of the press and put it under the control of the state, and 3). banned all political parties other than his own. In other words, Zelensky is now an unopposed dictator who is now running Ukraine just like the way that Putin runs Russia. Awake yet?”

Can't see it on the BBC news. Any other news links rather than a religious one?

I have no reason to believe and serious reasons to assume that's a complete fabrication (lie).. And very likely Russia is behind this attempt to deceive people.

I'd like a less biased source.

It would make sense that he may declare martial law, though, since y'know, invasion and all. The idea is that it would be temporary and a tool to help him defend the country.

That's not exactly the equivalent of the OP link, as I expected.

 

[Orbit]

When else would you do that---in times of national emergency it's necessary.

What, you mean everything should carry on the same as in peacetime, or else it's a nazi dictatorship?

Those are still nowhere close to your OP claims. And do keep in mind, Ukraine is being invaded by a much larger country. It's definitely a situation where you break that glass and consider tools you normally wouldn't use in the means of self defense.

 

[beenherebeforeagain]

And, of course, Putin has done nothing like this...and his country is doing the invading and not facing a national emergency of invasion...

 

[fantome profane]

It is hard to be sure of exactly what is going on, but it does seem he has made some anti-democratic moves lately.

But it doesn’t really change anything. It does not justify Putin’s invasion, it does not justify bombing civilians, killing children etc.

Some of these actions (taking over the media) are in fact standard procedures during times of emergency (ever heard the emergency broadcast system), but others are not.

But it doesn’t matter, the world simply cannot allow Putin to take over Ukraine. If Zelensky had done this before the invasion, perhaps the west would be putting sanctions on him, but that is not what happened.

Don't say such foolish things !

G-d does not recognise 'a church' that insists on having "jurisdiction" over historic lands.

Man cannot fool G-d. G-d knows our intentions.
Too many people claim to be acting in G-d's name, when it is all a smoke screen for personal power.
The next life does not work like that. Fortunately, these kind of people will not bother us any more.

That nowtheendbegins is not a reputable source.

Thanks!

And these appear sensible and within the Ukrainian laws in order to survive the invasion.

I did not say it. I posted an article, inserted a quote, and asked what others thought.

Not at all.

I didn’t make any claims. I posted an article, inserted a quote, and asked what people thought. Thanks for sharing yours.
