Putin's troops moan that they have been issued with plastic paintball masks, children's gloves and rubber boots to fight on the front line of Russia's war with Ukraine

Rubber boots and bad gloves will become a huge issue in just a few weeks. Lots of black toes and fingers are in their future.

Kind of hard to believe that Russia does not have enough guns for its troops.

[canuck_conservative]

maybe they can do like the USSR did in WWII, line them up 10 deep, only the first guy has a gun

when he gets shot, second guy picks up the gun and moves forward

when he gets shot, third guy picks up the gun ... etc.

“Russian efficiency”!

You do realize FR has, thanks to tireless work of a few, come to resemble a fantasy war mongering club for the infirmed.

Stay strong. The next time, and it shouldn’t be long, the US does it’s best to provoke another war, I’m sure it will be against a smaller, defenseless country that can’t fight back.

That’s much more titillating.

Everything from the Daily Mail is laughable BS and of zero intelligence value. All true defense professionals laugh at and ridicule the garbage they publish.

Warmongers should stop supporting the warmongering Russian invaders. Russians only need to get out of Ukraine to stop the war, and any real pacifist would urge Russians to do so.

[FreshPrince]

Yeah i know. To see the cheerleading for russian aggression here is sickening

[Allegra]

Getting started early with the Daily Mail propaganda, are we?

Warmongers should stop supporting the warmongering Russian invaders. Russians only need to get out of Ukraine to stop the war, and any real pacifist would urge Russians to do so.

Simple minded.

[canuck_conservative]

the US does it’s best to provoke another war

and in NOT ONE of those conflicts did the US try to wipe that country off the map, or try to annex its territory

like Russia IS doing in Ukraine

so before you start your anti-American hatred and relativism again, make sure you realize that important difference, buddy

[bert]

Like Nancy Pelosi, the Russophiles on Free Republic are in so deep that they will not allow the fact they are wrong

LOL

Sure. Taking context out of *everything* makes life less complicated and simple...for those who insist on being simple.

Once this is over, for morale purposes of those who live their lives in old black and white John Wayne movies, I propose re-attacking the tiny island of Grenada. A glorious victory that resulted in more medals being awarded than actual fighters involved.

Maybe you all can earn a few by way of meritorious, repetitive, lip-service and delusions.

They are only doing thus to try to save their asses. They are in big enough trouble as it is.
