Bungling Russian spetsnaz tries to destroy an enormous Ukrainian S-300 missile from yards away with his gun - only to be engulfed by enormous blast when it explodes

Shocking footage has emerged of the moment a Russian soldier attempted to destroy a Ukrainian missile launcher from close range with dramatic and potentially lethal consequences.
The clip, shared on a pro-Russian channel on social media and messaging app Telegram, shows one of Putin's fighters taking aim at an abandoned Ukrainian S-300 missile launcher sitting mere yards away.
After taking a few moments to compose himself, the soldier squeezes the trigger of his PKM machine gun, presumably expecting to damage the hardware or perhaps set off a minor explosion to render it inoperable.
A split second later the missile launcher erupts into an enormous explosion, sending gouts of flame blasting toward the lone gunman and his comrade holding the camera.

Bigotry is bigotry, regardless of who it comes from. You’re far too old to need this explained to you.

Tell it to Putin and his ethnic cannon fodder.

Patton also compared the denazification of Germany to
an election fight between Democrats and Republicans.
Moral of the story: using Patton's quotes about the post-WW2 USSR (incorrect as he was to hold Russians as uniformly devious by virtue of being Asiatic, as though that's even a thing) as though they're still applicable to modern-day Russia is a categorical error.
Patton would probably be too disgusted about the state of modern America to even care about events in Europe or Asia to begin with.

He succeeded. Didn’t get to celebrate the success, though.

Are you all still claiming that Russia is destroying entire cities because Ukraine forces are in every apartment building, store, mall, factory, etc.?

is trading an s-300 for an enemy soldier (who may well have survived, the cameraman was standing and clearly did) a good thing?
help me understand the logic here.
To: MercyFlush
Russians are not “real humans”. Substitute any other nationality or ethnic group for 'Russians', and you should see the problem with what you wrote.

Wonder if Patton ever reflected on the fact that between 1941-1944 the Russians, at a tremendous cost to themselves, mauled and destroyed the best units of the German army and inflicted upon them devastating losses. Historians claim that the Germans had 4.5 million killed in WW II. The vast majority of those casualties were inflicted by the Russians who are said to have lost 20,000,000. If the American army had to liberate Europe from a German army that had not been decimated by the Russians, wonder how many Americans living today would have ever been born. Many of our fathers and grandfathers would have never survived the war or returned home.

Don’t try logic or reasoning with these globalist Sorosbot warmongering trolls. Every last one of them deserves permanent zotting.

I don't know if Patton would have come to a second opinion if he had lived long enough to learn about just how ferocious the fighting between the Wehrmacht and the Red Army was. I'd like to think that he would have.

I always took any criticisms of Russians by Gen. Patton to be directed at the Communists, not the people themselves suffering under their totalitarian genocidal misrule (which, unfortunately, a few senile idiots around here believe that Russia is still Communist to justify their hatred and warmongering - hint: it’s not).

Looks like the Uke’s lost their industrial/manufacturing heartland.
Will have to wait and see what happens to the wide open farmland.
Folks on those farms may surrender just like whatever is left of the UKE army

There is no oil worth recovering in Ukraine. Drilled, fracked, and abandoned in 2014 as uneconomical to recover.

OTOH it's hard to imagine the Germans & Russians not eventually going to war together given Hitler & Stalin had designs on eastern Europe.
