News of the Bucha massacre is leading the news cycle now and Zelensky is attempting to use it as a tool to bring western militaries into the conflict and widen the war.

Joe Biden is calling Putin a war criminal and the Bucha massacre even though his own Pentagon won't confirm or deny events. All the information about it is coming from Zelensky.

It begs the question why would the Russian army commit this atrocity on civilians wearing neutral white armbands after delivering large quantities of humanitarian aid? 

Ukraine shelled Bucha before reestablishing a presence in Bucha after the Russian army left. On March 31st, this was the Ukrainian headline.

The New York Times just headlined a satellite image claiming bodies have littered the streets of Bucha for weeks. The condition of the bodies in the photos released by Ukraine says otherwise. The decomposition over a couple of weeks would have been pronounced. Bucha leaders had access to the internet all this time as evidenced by a town councilwoman's post below.

With over 300 murdered civilians scattered all over the streets, why didn't that make the news until now? On March 31st, shouldn't that have been the lead story the Mayor of Bucha was telling?

Reality check. The victims weren't reported until 4 days later.

The murder victims didn't show up until after the Ukrainians did. This image featuring Bucha's mayor shows the destruction Ukrainian shelling did after the Russian army left.

In the following images taken by the Ukrainian army, notice the prevalence of white armbands still on the victims' arms or used to bind their hands before they were killed.
