  • A lot of Americans are saying "This is a good war because no Americans are dying". I've heard this many times here in the USA. It turns my stomach because NO, it is not "good" at all.
  • These are the consequences of the absurdity of war. The suffering of these widows in Ukraine is the same as their Slavic widow sisters in Russia. I send my deep condolence to those brave widows and pray that this war ends as soon as possible.
  • @MC-vf4mk
    People don't know what war is until they experience it themselves. I can tell you from my own experience that mental problems arise only when the war is over. It took me five years to get at least a little bit back to normal.
  • Please let God give these women strength. Such horror that Boris Johnson wrecked the peace agreement, so many lives would have been saved.
  • @RickBlaine
    BlackRock will buy their farms from them. For cents on the dollar!
  • @coppermouse30
    My heart goes out to all these corageous widows. This is heartbreaking.
  • Les chiffres officiels des pertes ukrainiennes sont absolument faux - au moins dix fois plus!
  • @boki5667
    There is a saying, it is bad to be an enemy of America, but it is even worse to be a friend of America.
  • Such a sad reality of war. I wish our war loving US politicians could see more stories like this and push for peace.
  • This is so tragic and makes me feel sad for them.End this madness now , I’ve noticed a decline in people here who support this war (UK) , let’s hope it will be over soon .
  • @Gopferteckel
    History repeating, these women are going through what their grandmothers and great grand mothers went through 80 years ago more or less.
  • I'm Australian, and I wish to send condolences to the people of Ukraine as well as vibes of peace, saftey, and health. I'm not religious, so my thoughts go to these strong women. ❤❤❤❤ every day.

    May the lord of all Jesus Christ have mercy on us all❤

    My heart and thoughts go out to these brave women and there children. This should not and didn't need to happen. I want to hug you all.
  • True , the sorrowful fact is that those who are keep in the dark will never know the light.
  • @kiwihame
    These women should be treated like the heroes their husbands were. I'm disappointed in people who would treat them that way. It's not the Ukrainian I support and respect.
  • Hard to watch this without making you feel so dam angry. They did it to Iraq, Yemen, the middle east as a whole. SO MUCH PAIN. I truly believe we are in the awakening period.
  • Its so good to see these sad hopeless faces fill up with joy. Emotional healing is so very important.
