Uh Huh. Some Russian guy defected.
That surely means Putin is finished!
Remind me how much this patriot was paid again?
It’s a stupid war.

Okey dokey then. LOL
This patriot saved his life from Putin’s meat-grinder.
That’s the highest pay.
more signs of growing dissatisfaction within Russia
first you had that rebellion back in the summer, now this ...
looks like “Putin’s War” isn’t too popular among the troops ... and wait till he has to do another mobilization, this time from the European portion of Russia, which has largely escaped being called-up so far ... oh the fun ...

Hell Yeah. One down, 145 million more to go!
Putin won't do thar, specifically St. Petersburg and Moscow regions.
Last month, a US soldier in Korea walked across the DMZ and defected to North KoreaIn full context, it shows he is deranged. Something else rudimentary I can help you with?
So what does that show?
Sort of like what American soldiers should do it the U.S. invaded Canada, with the aim of annexing agricultural and mineral resources.

Ukraine was whole and at peace before then.
That an E-2 with mental problems and who spent months in an S. Korean prison and who was at the airport being sent home is just a weirdo and insignificant to this thread?
Double agent?
I think the guy picked the wrong profession if he didn’t want to see killing and breaking things.
