“ The territory of Ukraine is a mosaic of other people’s lands.”
Not anymore.

You got me there. I should have posted some of them to the comedy forum.
“I remember some folks with truly epic hangovers a couple of days after draft lotteries during the war in Vietnam”
You Talkin’ bout me!
In the good, ol' USA, Democratic officials try to recruit the DEAD merely to vote!
I shudda read ahead.
Many 'boating accidents' have been nullified since the new fishing 'magnets' started being used.
Are you working for one George Soros' organizations? Do you have a poster of Liz Cheney on your wall? Do you think George W. Bush was a great President?
#39. Those are not not rusted AKs. Those are bolt action Mosin-Nagants. Those recruits are likely going to be used as border guards. Because if they are going to the front line they need to practice using body bags more than their rifles.
Sure it does. Are you interested in purchasing a toll bridge by chance?
The number of dead is far under reported by the Russians who do it to keep drawing the pay of the dead.
If true, it's because the Russians didn't have the opportunity to finish the battle so the "spoils" didn't go to them.
...suddenly want improved morale in the West?

It’s not morale as we once thought of it. It is rah-rah, *yay team* , warm milk & cookies because there is an election coming up and they need to keep “the people” (tm) on side.

The Russians just call it the Mosin. Nagant was a Belgian designer, who claimed that Mosin incorporated his (Nagant's) intellectual property into Mosin's winning design in the 1891 rifle trials. The Russian's argued that Mosin developed the technology first, but failed to patent it because, as an army officer, he could not personally profit from the technology.
I don't know who was right. But Nagant got paid, and talked up his contribution to the rifle, which lead to it being called the Mosin-Nagant in the West.
As a long time owner, I can assure you that the Mosin-Nagant is a bolt action club. The stock is inferior to the 2x4s at Home Depot, and the action as smooth as a garage door handle that a burglar took a sledge hammer to.
Yeah, I know, the Commies won the Olympics with one. But those rifles bear the same resemblance to a gun show Mosin-Nagant that a NASCAR Ford Mustang bears to an Avis Ford Mustang.
I don't mean that as criticism. A bolt action club is what Russia needs for its conscripts, in 1891, 1905, 1914, 1941, and 2022. Cheap to produce. Easy to use. Maintenance is optional. You can free up a mud jammed action by holding it by the barrel and beating it against a stump. The long triangular bayonet makes a serviceable skewer for roasting chunks of flesh over an open fire if when STAVKA fails to provide the conscripts with rations.
Oh yes, Comrade. You nailed it.
Patton was right about Russia .
We should have cleaned out the Communists at the end of WWII.
The world would have been a much better place.
