AMERICAN THINKER
By John Smith
Yesterday, January 5, President Putin ordered a 36-hour ceasefire effective 6 – 7 January for his forces in Ukraine. This was based on the Orthodox Christian celebration of Christmas on 6 and 7 January in both Russia and Ukraine with Orthodox Patriarch Kirill of Moscow earlier calling for the ceasefire so both sides could observe a Christmas truce. Putin said,
“Proceeding from the fact that a large number of citizens professing Orthodoxy live in the areas of hostilities, we call on the Ukrainian side to declare a ceasefire and allow them to attend services on Christmas Eve, as well as on Christmas Day,”
Ukraine apparently was not impressed with Putin’s order and made a particularly harsh response to the Russian Orthodox Church and Patriarch Kirill.
A senior aide to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy, Mykhailo Podolyak, cast the Russian Orthodox Church as a “war propagandist” that had incited the “mass murder” of Ukrainians and the militarisation of Russia.
“The statement of the Russian Orthodox Church about the ‘Christmas Truce’ is a cynical trap and an element of propaganda,” he said.

Putin needs 36 hours to realign his existing troops and bring in more equipment and conscript reinforcements for his next phase of bombing cities, destroying villages and genocide.
All is fair in love and “War”, you know deceit, deception and destruction.
