The military leader of pro-Russian rebels in the eastern Ukrainian city of Donetsk, Igor Girkin - known as Strelkov - has resigned.
Alexander Borodai, the former PM of the self-declared Donetsk People's Republic, confirmed the news but denied reports Mr Strelkov had been wounded.

Now they're tamed and are sent to kill Georgians, Ukrainians, or assassination work, for Herr Putin.
Putin do not accept that Girkin/Strelkov got higher rating:

08/15/14. Posted by Alexander Zhuchkovskogo volunteer. "I filled up the question of what to small. All I know is that it was the last few days in Russia. too, this week I was in Russia, so do not have complete information. situation is changing rapidly, decisions are taken behind the scenes and most of the warlords do not know the nuances. All people in Donetsk, who own the information either unavailable or avoid talking on the phone. I think that a coherent picture of what is happening to me is only available on the spot. "
He’s an old KGB guy. He will simply disappear and you will never hear from him or anything about him again.
Yep, praying that russian nazis kick the bucket soon.
Perhaps sending 20,000 of them to Poland to be murdered en masse by the praying Poles. Just like in 1920, in the extermination camps whose existence you chose to forget.
The Russian economy will go south and dive with an accelerating speed:
Interest rates on loans to the agricultural sector are up between three and four percentage points compared with a range of 12-14 percent at the start of the year, due to rising key central bank rates, Oleynik said.

Igor Sechin, the head of Russian oil giant Rosneft, has asked the government to provide the company with 1.5 trillion roubles ($41. 6 billion) to help the company weather western sanctions, the Vedomosti newspaper reported yesterday.
Under the plan, the state would spend money from its National Wealth Fund to buy Rosneft bonds, the paper reported, citing government sources. The paper added that Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev had asked officials to analyse the idea.
Rosneft net debt stood exactly at 1.5 trillion roubles at the end of the second quarter. The company needs to repay 440 billion roubles by year-end and another 626 billion roubles next year, according to its latest presentation.
Apart from Rosneft, other sanctions-hit Russian firms, including Gazprombank, VEB and Russian Agricultural bank, have asked the government to support them via state funds. There are insufficient funds in the National Wealth Fund to finance the injection, Vedomosti said, as much of the 3.1 trillion rouble fund has already been assigned to other projects.
An anonymous official cited by the paper called Sechin’s plan “horrible”, and another government source told the paper that Medvedev was unlikely to back it. Rosneft declined to comment to Reuters.

The party is over, the last oligarch leaving should turn off the lights.
Nonsense. This forum is about discussing opinions. Second, the US is broke, our country is being lost, and we if we don’t take care of our debt and our borders, there won’t be any US power to use.
Military people are committing suicide in increasing numbers. How far do you think we can push them and their families? We have sent people into conflicts that have lasted over a decade and keep sending them 3,4,5 times or more.
Well, ignorant or not, it’s happening. The nation states are breaking apart. Suggested reading: The Rise and Decline of the State by Martin Van Creveld (his book, The Transformation of War is also excellent) and The Sovereign Individual by Davidson and Rees-Mogg.
Freegards,

Speaking of the border, a border agent recently said in an interview that the Russian Mafia (which, by the way, is filled mostly by "former" KGB agents), is heavily involved in border smuggling and in causing much of the problems we are experiencing.
Russia is our enemy, and if we do not wake up to Russian subversion and aggression, we will lose the country. This country needs cold-warriors to survive, not Liberaltarians who are ignorant about everything.
What do you propose we do with nuclear Russia?
Maintain a strong military. Insure NATO members are contributing to NATO. Stop cutting our nuclear forces and insure all nuclear weapons are properly maintained. Focus our intelligence services not just on counteracting espionage, but in identifying Russian agents of influence and exposing them. Aiding the victims of Russian aggression and disinformation the way the Russians aid Iran and other anti-American regimes with weapons and technology, as well as providing these groups with a voice on the world stage b highlighting their struggles. On a movement wide level, Conservatives need to be educated and to educate on Communist disinformation, review anti-Communist literature, and question Pro-Russian "conservatives" or "libertarians" as likely Russian agents of influence.
20,000 dead is not a laughing matter. At least not for normal people. I don't know from which stone you crawled out from, but this is one more proof of what you are.
I seriously doubt you are a Polish man. Or if you are, you belong to the rare kind of Polish people, like Felix Dzerzhinsky or Zbig Brzezinski.
Spare me that BS, go cry over dead soviets somewhere else.
