Putin's Army in shambles: Bungling officials try to recruit the DEAD to fight in Ukraine war - as Russians who have been forced into conscription drink themselves senseless
UK Daily Mail ^ | September 24, 2022 | Walter Finch

Vladimir Putin's chaotic conscription of the Russian male population continues as more videos emerge of drunken insubordination and brawling by those being drafted into the Ukrainian meatgrinder.

Just days after the Russian dictator announced a partial mobilisation, the true reality of Putin's vicious war in the Donbas is evidently coming home to the desperate citizens of Russia, as thousands have received their call up orders.

Videos show reluctant conscripts at recruitment offices and staging points hitting the bottle and drinking themselves senseless as military commanders try to coral them into order before boarding buses and planes.

Bungling officials try to recruit the DEAD to fight in Ukraine war

The Russians love to keep their dead active like in Gogol's book Dead Souls

(for those who don't want to read the book, it is a satire of Russian society of involving a scammer buying up the ownership of dead serfs to be able to pretend they are still alive and take a big loan using them as collateral)

We are much superior to the Russians in that we don't try to draft our dead. In fact, we let them rule over us by allowing them to vote.

How is that different from Russians not forced into conscription?

Those Russians haven't been forced into conscription yet.

Looks like a pretty good group of men capable of running logistics, driving trucks, operating machinery, manning check points, etc...whats your point?

Oh wait...are you one of those simple minds who think the Russians don’t have any professional soldiers left to drive the holol nazis and their NATO embeds out of Donbas?

keep incrementally increasing.

You mean decreasing, and not "incrementally." In fact, before Russia lost all that territory, they hadn't had any gains since July.

Artur Rehi covered this on his YouTube page. Rehi is an Estonian and his grandparents lived through the Soviet era, so he knows what RuSSia is all about. Russia’s “recruitment centers” are as ill-prepared as the rest of Russia’s military. No mattresses on the bed frames. Lack of training programs. Not enough food or water. Mistreatment of the men. Getting drunk BEFORE arrival at the barracks. Falsified medical records allowing diabetics, etc. to be sent into combat. Etc.

These new recruits are even worse than the ones already there, lol.

Russia does not play poker. Russia plays chess and plays it well. Russia’s burgeoning trade and military relations with China, Iran, India and Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and Brazil is making Putin’s position stronger, not weaker.

That must be why Russia now hides most of its financial data.

“Russia invaded Ukraine seven months ago with a 40 mile convoy of their best troops and equipment. Everyone was predicting Kyiv would fall within DAYS. Remember that, all of you anti-Ukraine “experts”. Now Putin is forced to call up replacements for his retreating and demoralized military!”

Yes, we all, the entire world, expected to see the new, modernized, American-style Russian Army with its modern equipment and huge numbers of backflipping hatchet-throwing Special Forces, and its infamous intelligence agencies move into Ukraine like a well-oiled machine and replace the government with its own, disarm the Ukrainian military, quickly eliminate any rebellious elements and take the nation in 3 days and have it tamed within weeks.

None of us expected what the last 7 months have actually delivered, and the situation that Russia is in these 7 months later.

You must be one of those simple minds who confused the Russian military recruitment ad for the real thing.

The Daily Mail has a tendency to exaggerate and overstate its case.

Not as bad as it looks - put ‘em in boiling water for a few minutes, then scrub with some oil and a brush - you’d be surprised how good they’ll look.

They’ll still shoot like when they were new - crappy, but goes bang.

"The Daily Mail has a tendency to exaggerate and overstate its case."

Then why have you posted Daily Mail articles twice in September, three times in August, three times in June...
