Yes I am angry. My family is from Ukraine. So yeah its a little bit more personal than most wars are.

OK. I understand this, but you shouldn't accuse people who are concerned about a war or hope for peace of being pro-Putin... Nothing I said, or the video said, is remotely pro-Putin... You instantly made me your enemy, equating me to people who support the opposite side. When things are most emotional one should be careful not to let their feelings cloud their judgment...

Criticize Ukraine if the country survives. Right now, its just tone deaf.

This is not criticizing Ukraine, it is criticizing the US and the UK... Anyway...
