in substance, that isnt much different from recruiting underpriviliged high school kids offering them "free college and a career" and then shipping them to iraq.

Not even close, Those russians were pulled for "exercise's" but were fed to the wolves of combat with no prep, resources or even training for those reservists as such in the video.
Our military is still a volunteer service and has deployment notices and a ton of training to prepare for the roll out. Even as a national guardsman I had 9 months of train up before I went to combat.

Reports that Putin has fired his Chief of the General Staff. Probably a great time to have an inexperienced yes-man reporting to your cornered animal leader that just found out the EU intends to supply fighter jets to Ukraine.
Just saw a report (unverified) that Rus citizens have begun what amounts to a run on the banks
That's been slowly starting Friday, huge lines at banks and ATMs and lots of banks limiting withdrawals. Should turn into proper bank runs now and the Rubel is going to absolutely tank tomorrow. I already posted another video of this finance prof explaining the economic effects of the latest sanctions.
I wanna see what kind of depreciation there will be tomorrow. Financial shitstorm looks to be apocaliptycal.
That's classic Russia for you.
Not even close. You simply don't have a choice of not going in conscription countries. Been there ...
This is brutally going to hit all Western banks that hold assets or collateral in Russia. They should just confiscate the oligarch's and Putin's assets to cover for the losses.
Ukraine now has a newly established Foreign legion and is accepting applications for the Combat junkies.
I dunno, it might be a little different than airsoft.

"its not here or like on our TV shows"
The more I see stuff like this the more I realize why so many russian military are changing into civilian clothes and running into the fray to defect or escape.

Ukrainian sailor 'partially sinks' Russian arms exporter's nearly $8 million yacht
The Balearic Island newspaper Ultima Hora reported Sunday that a $7.8 million yacht "partially sank" at the docks on the Spanish island of Mallorca after a Ukrainian sailor opened the valves. The sailor was arrested after the incident with the massive boat named the Lady Anastasia. The ship...

How is it that the lead singer from a bad copycat KISS band (not that KISS was any good) be smarter than a former president and several sitting members of congress?
The best display of leadership seen in the last few years came from a guy who played chopsticks with his dick on a tv show.
Politicians normally come from the worst human stock possible.
So, I was thinking a little bit more about the implications of this incident. Given who the owner of the yacht is, you can damn well bet that the Ukrainian crew was recruited for the Russian speaking, ‘pro-Russia’ part of the Ukraine. This guerrilla action is, most certainly, NOT what Putin expected from the areas that he claims are being ‘liberated’.Ukrainian sailor 'partially sinks' Russian arms exporter's nearly $8 million yacht

I believe it is telling of the current global sentiment.

Looks like the recently retired professionals are coming out to play. @gonefirefightin what do you think the 1:# ratio of recently retired special ops/boots down combat troops are vs. the Russian troops is? 1:5? 1:10?
