Why is he making a satanic hand gesture? Is he a satanist or a banderist? Or both?

The Russians have used for the first time in Ukraine ODAB-9000, a high-powered aviation vacuum bomb, the video has been published by pro-Kremlin telegram channels It is claimed that the footage was shot in Vovchansk, Kharkiv Region. The media say that this type of bomb is one of the most powerful non-nuclear weapons in the world.

They've not had a peaceful regime change in 900 years of history.
Lie. Yeltsin to Putin change was completely peaceful.
Russia and China are dream allies for Europe
US cannot afford such competition. Competition is good only if US benefits in a result. ;) Other kinds of competition is anathema. ;) ;)
We are defending the most corrupt shithole on eart with nothing that concerns us.
How? What about billions that your shitrocks/blackrocks invested into nice ukrainian lands? Someone must die to protect their investments.

Yeltsin
He was a good guy. Maybe he should have gone a bit easier on the booze but otherwise a great statesman. With someone like Yeltsin at helm Russia would eventually have become a member of the EU. That is, of course, if she wanted too. I remember a Danish professor telling me once that Russia doesn't want to be a part of any larger alliance that they wouldn't run/dominate, because they consider themselves a separate civilization to everyone else. Don't know where he got it from.

Palace coup....

He got it from RuSSians.
In other news, Ukraine captured a Nepali mercenary "fighting" for russia....
A familiar story, he was supposedly recruited for work away from the front but was then sent straight to the front and in general treated 'like an animal' not given food...

Apparently he was happy to be captured by Ukraine as his chances of survival are infinitely better than with the side he signed up for....

Russians were first part of a little thing called the Russian Empire, and then a part of something called the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics.
In the first instance, we were ruled by Germans for the last 200 years or so. Tsar Nicholas II, for example, had practically zero Russian blood. His mother, Empress Maria Fedorovna, was born Princess Dagmar of Denmark. Through his father, Tsar Alexander III, Nicholas had Frederick William III of Prussia as grandfather, and Princess Marie of Hesse as grandmother.
In that same empire, Finns and Poles had liberties which Russians could not even dream of. Also strange.
Now, let's discuss the USSR.
1) Lenin had a Chuvash father, and a Jewish mother (Maria Alexandrovna Blank).
2) Joseph Stalin was a pure Georgian.
3) Khrushchev's father was Russian, and his mother Ukrainian. He rose to prominence as the first secretary of the communist party of Ukraine, during the 1930s.
4) Brezhnev was a Ukrainian from Dnipropetrovsk. When he came into power, he brought with himself the so called "Dnipropetrovsk Mafia", where pretty much every important position in the Soviet Union became occupied by a Ukrainian.
5) Andropov, had a Russian father and Jewish mother (Yevheniya Fyodorovna Fleckelstein).
6) Chernenko had a Ukrainian father, and a Russian mother.
7) Gorbachev had a Russian father, and. Ukrainian mother.
Oh those Russian xenophobes!!!
In the 1990s, Russian opposition politicians were:
1) Boris Nemtsov - Russian/Jewish
2) Irina Hakamada - Russian/Japanese
3) Sergei Yastrezhembsky - a pure Pole
4) Gregory Yavlinsky - Russian/Jewish
Right now, our main opposition politicians are:
1) Mikhail Khodorkovksky - Jewish
2) Gary Kasparov - Armenian/Jewish
3) Maxim Katz - Jewish
4) Ilya Yashin - Russian/Jewish
5) Vladimir Kara-Murza - Russian/Jewish
The only guy that seemed purely Russian was Navalny.
In Ireland, they say about the Anglo-Norman invaders that arrived in the 12th century, that they eventually became "more Irish than the Irish themselves".
They embraced Irish custom and dress, law (Brehon Law), and language (Irish Gaelic). When later English invaders arrived, these former English Normans were among the staunchest defenders of Irish independence.
Funny how that works, isn't it?
In the same way, we have all these non-Russian people in Russia that are more Russian than Russians themselves. That's where there may be some truth to what you say, Paulina and Kania.
It's not unusual for me to listen to lessons from my Jewish friends on what it means to love Russia. Haha!

Yes, I thought the guy was talking nonsense. Danes, what do they know? Maybe he read (misread?) some of early Dugin and got the wrong idea. People often get wrong ideas about Russia. Sometimes it's fear, sometimes it's ignorance, sometimes it's reading too much PF!
Ukraine captured a Nepali mercenary
The article says he enlisted and went to the front because he wanted to pay off his debt. What did he think the job would look like? Mercenaries are scum of the earth.
Nepalczyk apeluje do mieszkańców Indii i Nepalu, aby nie przyjeżdżali na front. Podkreśla, że to bardzo niebezpieczne dla ich zdrowia i życia.
No! Well I never...
Now, let's discuss the USSR
Don't you have any real russians left in this russia who are still available for use?
No! Well I never...
This has to be one of the more funny things I have read today. Who knew?!
Don't you have any real russians left in this russia who are still available for use?
I'm sorry, did you not receive the memo? We are orcs and slaves - we steal toilets.
Russians can be trusted as much with power, as a monkey can be trusted with a grenade.
If you gave a Russian power, he wouldn't know what to do with it. You know... because we cannot think for ourselves and always need to be told what to do.
We are the negr0s of Europe - not for nothing did Hitler call us untermenschen.
Yes, I thought the guy was talking nonsense.
Kania, I'm telling you - he got this idea from RuSSians. The Putinist RuSSians I've discussed with shared that sentiment.

Poles are Mexicans of Europe, so not that far away. ;) Aaah... sense of humour, it does make life easier.
The Putinist RuSSians I've discussed with shared that sentiment.
On the internet you can't hear the tone of voice, you don't see your interlocutor's face - hence many misunderstandings. Can you imagine me writing something similar about Poland? The Holiest Rzeczpospolita, 'jak powiedział stary góral, Polska będzie aż po Ural', and all that? Sure you can. Would I be 100% serious saying that? Exactly. Russians have sense of humour too (see above).
@GefreiterKania, I've discussed with them long enough to know when they're being serious and when they're being sarcastic. Whether they were right - that's another matter.
Poles are Mexicans of Europe
They were once the Cubans of Europe.
I've discussed with them long enough to know when they're being serious.
What is there to be serious about?
By any normal historian's standard, Russia is a European country. Specifically, Eastern European, belonging to the cultural grouping of Eastern Slavs - together with Belarus and Ukraine - with whom they share an Orthodox faith.
Ancient Greeks built trading posts along the Black Sea, and with them we traded. We served as bodyguards to the Byzantine Emperor. Cyrill and Methodius gave us an alphabet, and other Greek priests baptized our leaders. Our princesses and princes were married to the children of other European heads of state, as early as the 10th century AD. Russian literature and music forms a significant part of the canon of Western civilization.
Yes, we have a unique role as a bridge between Asia and Europe, but any serious person will understand Russia is more European than anything else it could be. I'm not even going to say it's racist, because I don't think it's racist to compare us with Asians. We simply are more European than Asian.
If Albanians and Bulgarians are European, then we certainly can claim it too.
By any normal historian's standard
Well, I wouldn't call Putinist RuSSians entirely normal people lol
Russia is a European country
From what I've noticed that was the sentiment of liberal Russians I've discussed with - pro-democratic, anti-Putinist. You know - normal people...
We simply are more European than Asian.
Well, that's also what I thought when I started discussing with RuSSians, so I was pretty shocked by that sentiment of theirs.
sentiment of liberal Russians
They worship Europe, as people worship the international prototype of a meter stored in some facility in France. That is, they worship a model stored in a spherical vacuum.
Real Russians love the idea of Europe, but seek to remake it in their own vision.
America or China would never dare to even breathe dangerously in the direction of Europe, if it was Russian.
A Russian Europe, would mean a return to Europe as the center of global affairs, as it had been for a thousand years.

They worship Europe,
Why? 🤔
Okay.....I can understand the meter and centimeter and °Grad thing and of course normal people drive right....but else?
@Bobko, those liberal Russians I've discussed with didn't "worship" Europe. They didn't hate it though and didn't see it as some kind of eternal enemy. They were simply normal people.
And they were as much "real Russians" as you, Velund and ConstantineK.
I'm afraid you summed up RuSSians pretty well. Putin and state TV are doing all the thinking for the RuSSian society :)
You see, Kania, the Dutch guy was right.
Scary.

@GefreiterKania, I'd like to remind you what the Dutch guy said:
And as if to confirm his words - here you have Bobko daydreaming about "Russian Europe". He's more messed up and megalomaniac than I thought o_O

Because they hate that they are Russian. They would prefer it that nobody knew where they come from. They want to eat from the hand of their European master, and receive gentle pats on the head for being a good doggie. Same as your German leaders are willing to debase themselves to any level, so long as they can be accepted as fluffy and harmless Germans.
Russia is not fluffy or harmless, and we don't agree that the homosexuals from France and Britain are allowed to define what it means to be European.
Russian liberals that worship Europe, do it because they hate Russia. Just like Maf, they hate it for being backwards, brutal, and strange. As if they came from Mars... as if this land is not theirs...
Russia needs to be loved, and understood. We don't need such fair weather passengers as them, ready to sell their country for a penny.

He was Danish - from Denmark (lego blocks, Bornholm, Brondby).
A figure of speech. He obviously meant Europe allied to Russia.
