  1. Putin knows how the game works, sadly.

  2. National lampoon's vacation come to mind… "ard we there yet?"………"no. not yet "…uuuuuuuugggghhπŸ˜’πŸ˜’πŸ˜’

  3. *GO GET POOTBOY AMAL = THANK YOU & GOD BLESS!!!*

  4. WISE WORDS, from a wise woman; a woman of conviction. Brava!

  5. The President of Ukraine is very stupid, he deliberately sacrifices his own people because of his selfishness and stupidity, he is willing to be America's puppet and willing his country to be a testing ground for Nato weapons, America is a cowardly country he will not dare to fight Russia one on one because he will definitely lose, let alone against Russia against Vietnam alone America loses and it will become a record of world history, the real superpowers are Russia and China, America is a provocateur but America is actually a coward…URAAAAAA……πŸ’ͺπŸ’ͺπŸ’ͺπŸ’ͺ

  6. Prayers and support to Russia
    πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ πŸ‡·πŸ‡Ί brother's always!!

  7. Did she push for Palestine like this ? Or the Middle East ?

  8. It is a' Slaughterhouse': So sad. we can only cry, cry for many years; if this never-ending war gets worse every day.

  9. Please stop the lie when it African and black people white and blue eyes is people but when it's black people ,stop the lies

  10. Collect evidence of war crimes essential. But Putin able ever being apprehended is an illusion of proportions.

  11. So sad that an entire 'rest of the world' cannot rescue one nation from annihilation by another. We are staying put because of 'Put-in' rules that we cannot break without risking nuclear war and losing even more people than an entire Ukraine.

    What helpless situation and what a dark spot this generation has earned in the History books of tomorrow. Dear God have mercy on Ukranians and also on Russians of goodwill who have to deal with shame, not of their own making. Looks like no-one inside or outside Russia can do anything conclusive. If ever an 'act of God' was needed to end a nightmare, it is now. Prayer warriors, lets go boldly to the throne of grace. There has to be a David even for this Goliath!

  12. I need to lose weight should I go to Ukraine to be starved

  13. Why are people fighting in Ukraine when Putin is in Russia? STOP THE WAR.

    Why do Americans shoot 44 other Americans each day? PUT THE GUNS DOWN.

    Why are Trump's trials taking so long? JAIL TRAITOR TRUMP.

    Why does America ignore 1,019,943 Covid deaths? USE MASKS & VACCINATE.

  14. Ukraine government is second of the most corrupted in Europe and you’re telling me Putin is also corrupt. Ukraine is actually rated more corrupt than Russia according to International's Corruption Perceptions Index for 2021 summing up all the evil acts that MAKE headlines. Who knows what also happen!? So the corrupt vs the corrupt. Why is US NATO supporting this? Clue🩸 πŸ“œπŸ›πŸ’΅ πŸ“ˆπŸ˜›πŸ˜‡..

  15. Yes, from the media, I saw Ukraine is winning. They slaughter a lot of Russians each and every day. Ukraine is indeed a slaughterhouse.

  16. All talk and no action… I am not surprised. It is UN after all.

  17. wow amal cant you see israeli atrocities going right now in gaza? unbelievable Hypocrisy!

  18. Wish she hadn't use that word, "slaughterhouse." Makes one think of what the hapless, imprisoned animal animals feel and go through.

  19. We need to see proof right on the screen, not just hear say, now they even got George Clooneys talking out her her back give me me a break I want to see the proof on screen.

  20. How convenient that her and her husband's speeches and concerns about alleged war crimes around the world always fall right in line with Anglo American geopolitical interests. Where were passionate speeches and concerns when the people of Yugoslavia, Iraq, Lybia, Afghanistan, Somalia, Yemen, Haiti etc… were getting obliterated by Anglo American weapons?

  21. my god i cnt believe jah jah god my god wat hel is going in ukraine putin must pay for this jah god naa sleep n no body care the world worst than russia because stand aside an watch all this murders and brutalitys my god how can u stand aside a watch this in jesus name this is paining me daily i cnt believeπŸ€”πŸ€”πŸ€”πŸ€”πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™

  22. yes vi in sweden to, are all nassists,so vi send all the many vi have to George sorros,and his son Zilinsky.

  23. If The Hague was an honest entity and abstained from bias then I would welcome a criminal tribunal for war crimes. As we have seen with Serbia it is not an honest mandate, but even with the problems associated with The Hague being partial to one particular side over another I believe that the majority of war crimes would be proven with Ukrainian forces being the main perpetrator.

  24. I think this is already starting to happen. It only gets a couple of seconds on the regular tv channels 2,5,7 unlike the higher cable channel news.

  25. powerful words…the shock of this never goes away..may justice soon be done

  26. Putin thinks babies & children are nazis

  27. Ms. Clooney is right and deservedly so. It's pretty simple. Think about Putin's raping of Ukraine and ask yourself "Is this right?" If Putin is wrong, then you have a moral obligation to help defend Ukraine AND prevent Russia from committing future aggressions.

  28. Nice sentiment. But she should not have dressed so glamorous and so much make up . It detracts from the message. Just my opinion

  29. Go talk to US if you want to close down this slaughterhouse . It's useless if you talk to the wrong party . ..
    Uncles and aunties like me, who watched your video clip were unable to close down the slaughterhouse even though they want.

  30. that's what war is
    destruction
    death
    atrocities
    every war throuout all history.

    what other type of war is she expecting? πŸ™„πŸ™„πŸ™„πŸ™„πŸ™„πŸ™„πŸ™„πŸ™„πŸ™„πŸ™„πŸ™„πŸ™„πŸ™„πŸ™„πŸ™„

  31. Yeah how about the US killing 2 million civilians in Iraq

  32. Seize money from russian propagandists influencers

  33. If US compete fairly and truly cares for this world, the whole world will support her, including me. US has her own unique of attraction, but the dirty things she did became more and more outrageous. This attraction is getting less and less. The hints are already there. The Saudi Kings, Macron, SE Asia all give u cold shoulders in recent wks. It is time to change your bad habits and tone down your insatiable greed for power and money. That is the only advice I can give u.

  34. U have the dollars, the national debt and military as the pillar for your hegemony. But this couldn't succeed if US economy crumbles. It would be like domino cards, one falling after another. During then, where is the money to support these vested interest. Moreover, countries are realising how US manipulate them through threats, sanction and exploitation. Their patience is limited if US keeps on conducting such scheme such as colour revolution or playing with financial mkts. One day, even your allies can't stand u and will gel up against u. Military should be used to defend one nation, not to create wars to earn profits. This already goes against the nature of things. If this is so, your downfall is inevitable.

  35. What about the 16 million Ukrainian men who are effectively used as human shields by their own government?

  36. U don't have to create world disorder to maintain your hegemony. U allowed the vested interest grps to manipulate world affairs, how could there be peace? They want as much money as possible, so only through wars and political instability could they reap any profits from it. So how could there be no wars and suffering? Even if the war ended, another war would be deliberately created elsewhere to satisfy their excessive greed for money.

  37. What on earth are these ppl turning a blind eye and pretend not to know about who causes this war? So obvious, but the intellectual guts and conscience are all gone. US, US, please wake up. You are causing ultimate suffering to ppl all over the world. Can you pls reflect? It seems u have no sense of guilt at all.

  38. She's right about sanctions and politicians who will get used to what happens in Ukraine. Sad 😞

  39. A country that slaughter so many ppl, the Natives, the Africans, the Afghans, the ME people, the Vietnamese, has the audacity to talk about other ctries slaughtering. The hypocrisy is so deep that no words could describe it. Just a lie and a swaying of a hand holding a bottle of washing powder in UN assembly could cause hundred of thousands of death in Iraq. Now that is called a slaughter. And this is just one of the many slaughter conducted by the same country.

  40. Yea and they're dumping babies out of incubators onto the cold floor. Yea we hear it all before. All she is doing is descripting what the Azov Nazis have been doing for 8 YEARS!!! it didn't start LAST MONTH!!

  41. And yet the Republicans, right wing news stations, and trump continue to support Russia and offer excuses for the barbarity. Just yesterday Rand Paul was voicing his support for Putin in a senate hearing.

  42. What about American citizens still in Afganistan? Oh , I forgot, we are not suppose to talk about that. Sorry, I will never forget, and never forgive. You never leave anyone behind.

  43. If ZELENESKY is an ACTOR,
    Then USA is the DIRECTOR….

  44. Thank you Mrs. Clooney for speaking up. You are so correct in your statement. I hope they listen and others become an advocate.
