    A quote Russia might want to consider: "The victor is not victorious if the vanquished does not consider himself so.".
    Russia can decide to start the war without the consent of Ukraine, but they can't decide to end it without the consent of Ukraine.

      SLEEPING PROPHET
      Why Sleeping Prophet prediction expected to happen?
      Cos the source of info direct come from mother nature like how Dajjal know everything.
      Sure Sleeping Prophet prediction could be wrong since human have feeling and prediction would sway or how Japan ended up in his prediction cos he hate Japanese for what happen in WW2.
      But Sleeping Prophet cannot be wrong since he don't have any negative feeling toward American.
      Inshort, what will crush America were just around the corner since everyone aware, what exist beneath Yellowstone that one day would flow to the nearby ocean wiping out the whole west coast.
      #What? Jews refuse to run back to the promised land even Yellowstone expected would erupt sooner or later and backed by the science book named book of life?
      No one said cannot since that is how human behave from thousands years ago, until its too late.
      (Cos you cannot debunk the meaning of love in my video that exist due to 8th Feeling is a science theory in book of life and don't forget Alan Walker cos Dajjal did not come alone)

    you're forgetting about a fun detail: when russian soldiers die in service, their families are legally entitled to monetary compensation. wagner contracts do not contain such a clause. therefor wagner mercenaries are comparatively extremely expensive alive (they're paid about 10 times more), but their deaths are cheap. nobody in their right mind and not in prison should sign up for that.
    also the "no thuggery, no sexual crimes" thing is clearly not a strict rule. wagner's prison recruitment has included rapists, murderers, and a cannibal.

      My number 1 gripe with war isn't the atrocities or the number killed...
      It's the assholes that started the thing in the first place. They never have to go onto the field themselves, not like the battles during the good old days. They dont have to face that final, mortal moment as a consequence of their actions... They make another poor dumb bastard die for their opinion, or "glory", or bullshit idea.
      Can you imagine fighting alongside Leonidas or King Harold, even Patton himself, knowing they're putting some serious skin in the game for a cause they believe in?
      Now days, they just sit behind a table, look fancy, and order the men to their deaths and take the credit. They do not deserve an ounce of respect or honor.
      Bring back generals and leaders of countries on the battlefield, then we'll see exactly how much modern warfare there really needs to be.

    I remember the time during the Vietnam war when the US recruited freshly convicted delinquents straight from the courts of law who had been given the choice of imprisonment or sign up for service in the US army. I knew enough NCOs who rolled their eyes when they got another one of these types. They had a deteriorating effect on discipline, were always getting into trouble, often had fights with others, were dishonest and untrustworthy, stole from their comrades and did only the absolute minimum to fulfil orders. In other words they were more work than they were worth it.

My father was an army veteran, fought in Korea. He said that sort of thing was a terrible idea, those people had no discipline and were only interested in protecting themselves. They never considered themselves part of a team which will doom a unit, for obvious reasons. The Dirty Dozen thing is generally a very bad idea.

    @gerrylewis5281 ปีที่แล้ว +38

    As a 20 year veteran in the Army, I have seen many mercenaries , or as they prefer, private security companies on the ground. Their usual recruitment requirements only accept well trained operatives. But when being used, they usually are employed as security for big business companies in the area. Because of their high standard of recruitment, they have sometimes been used in hostage recovery. However, they are not used as a full on fighting force in the same way as your average grunt. Their qualifications and rate of pay excludes them that. But with the Wagner Group we don't see this. Their mortality rate on the battlefield has forced them to take volunteers from prisons, increase the age of volunteers and accept people with no military training. They just need to keep the numbers up in order to keep the profit rolling in. Compare the Wagner Group to the Chechen fighters in Ukraine for example. They are battle hardened soldiers who are not fighting for money, they are fighting in order to keep Ukraine free from Putin's rule.

      Вы ошибаетесь, группа Вагнера является не просто живой силой. У них есть танки, самолёты, артиллерия, БПЛА. Они являются полноценной боевой силой и держат определенный участок фронта. Так же, они действуют более эффективно, чем регулярная армия, так как у них отсутствуют различные генералы, поэтому, скорость поступления приказов намного выше, тем самым группа Вагнера более гибки в принятии решений. Так же касаемо их подготовки, у них есть свои центры для обучения новобранцев, там происходит обучение различным специальностям и происходит совместная работа подразделений

Они не являются ЧВК, они точно такие же солдаты своей страны, просто не официальные, если можно так сказать. И в целом, в нашей стране запрещено любой наёмничество. Так что группы Вагнера нет, это просто миф)

Action movies rarely cover that part because logistics boring. Those Wagner puds are just going to wind up in a meat grinder at best, or run away in droves when they see it coming. The only reason why Russia got that far into Ukraine in the beginning was because they had enough artillery to bombard the advance into submission, now the lions share belongs to Ukraine and Russians should be asking if the whole blowing up hospitals and schools is water under the bridge. The answer is probably no.

These guys are thugs and criminals, and most of them have no idea what they are doing.
      But maybe your Russian handler is paying you well to vomit out this bullshit propaganda. Kherson is all but lost to Russia as are the thousands of Russian troops currently trapped west of the Dnipro river. The latest batch of US and other NATO equipment is in country and en route to the forward areas now. That stuff is almost certainly going to arrive before the 300,000 untrained, poorly equipped, unsupported and unmotivated cannon fodder troops Putin has condemned to this fight. The US is considering sending M1 Abrams tanks, which are far superior to the T-72-based models Russia is using (as made clear during the Gulf War 1991). This means if Russia doesn't fold before, this coming spring is going to see a massive push through the occupied territories, including Crimea, and utter defeat for Russia.

      Do you think God would side with Sødom and Gomorrah? Seriously? The side that mocks God with the Rainbow, God's symbol that He gave us after destroying the world for embracing sexual immorality, you think a nation that embraces Pride, the deadliest sin and marches with that flag to mock God by claiming it as a symbol for the sexually immoral who are "Prideful" and openly rebelling against God, you think God would be with those who mock Him?
      "Just as it was in the days of Noah, so also will it be in the days of the Son of Man. People were eating, drinking, marrying and being given in marriage up to the day Noah entered the ark. Then the flood came and destroyed them all. It was the same in the days of Lot. People were eating and drinking, buying and selling, planting and building. But the day Lot left Sodom, fire and sulfur rained down from heaven and destroyed them all.
      It will be just like this on the day the Son of Man is revealed. On that day no one who is on the housetop, with possessions inside, should go down to get them. Likewise, no one in the field should go back for anything. Remember Lot’s wife! "
      - Jesus Christ, Luke chapter 17
      America is likely Babylon the Great of Revelations, a luxurious nation that embraces sexual immorality and corrupts "all the nations of the earth" (thanks to the USA's internet p-rnography exports), which is destroyed in "a single hour" by fire. It's a nation that thinks it will never be defeated, "Give her as much torment and grief as the glory and luxury she gave herself. In her heart she boasts, 'I sit enthroned as queen. I am not a widow; I will never mourn."
      Read Luke chapter 17, Matthew chapter 24, and Revelations 18, and then come back and tell me if it doesn't sound like America getting nuked
      ====================================
      For all the nations have drunk the maddening wine of her adulteries. [all the world is saturated with p-rnography and LGBT propaganda because of America]
      The kings of the earth committed adultery with her, and the merchants of the earth grew rich from her excessive luxuries. [obviously America enriching the world's merchants]
      Then I heard another voice from heaven say: "Come out of her, my people, so that you will not share in her sins, so that you will not receive any of her plagues; for her sins are piled up to heaven, and God has remembered her crimes." [this shows it's a nation with a lot of christians inside it, like America, whose christians need to come out of it]
      Give back to her as she has given; pay her back double for what she has done. Mix her a double portion from her own cup.
      Give her as much torture and grief as the glory and luxury she gave herself. In her heart she boasts, `I sit as queen; I am not a widow, and I will never mourn.'
      Therefore in one day her plagues will overtake her: death, mourning and famine. She will be consumed by fire, for mighty is the Lord God who judges her.
      "When the kings of the earth who committed adultery with her and shared her luxury see the smoke of her burning, they will weep and mourn over her.
      Terrified at her torment, they will stand far off and cry: "`Woe! Woe, O great city, O Babylon, city of power! In one hour your doom has come!'
      "The merchants of the earth will weep and mourn over her because no one buys their cargoes any more--
      cargoes of gold, silver, precious stones and pearls; fine linen, purple, silk and scarlet cloth; every sort of citron wood, and articles of every kind made of ivory, costly wood, bronze, iron and marble; cargoes of cinnamon and spice, of incense, myrrh and frankincense, of wine and olive oil, of fine flour and wheat; cattle and sheep; horses and carriages; and bodies and souls of men. "They will say, `The fruit you longed for is gone from you. All your riches and splendor have vanished, never to be recovered.'
      The merchants who sold these things and gained their wealth from her will stand far off, terrified at her torment. They will weep and mourn and cry out: "`Woe! Woe, O great city, dressed in fine linen, purple and scarlet, and glittering with gold, precious stones and pearls! In one hour such great wealth has been brought to ruin!"
      ====================================================
      "Consumed by fire" "in one hour" of a luxurious nation that mad the WHOLE world "mad" from her adultery (betrayal of christian values), who else except America can this refer to?
      Since you're praying just wanted you to know whose side you are on. As Putin said, quoting Jesus, "By their fruits, ye shall know them" and America's fruit is "pure satanism".

      But Sleeping Prophet cannot be wrong since he don't have any negative feeling toward American.

      #What? Jews refuse to run back to the promised land even Yellowstone expected would erupt sooner or later and backed by the science book named book of life?
      No one said cannot since that is how human behave from thousands years ago, until its too late.

    On 'Wagner": There might have been some fanatic Russian Nationalists but these days one can just read old Machiavelli 'The Prince' - the chapter about mercenaries i.o. to understand how they will behave. In a nutshell - mercenaries are a nice (apparent) force multiplier in times of of strength and on an offensive. In a retreat or desperate situation they always become a liability - no matter what they call themselves.

Not a few hours later, that building got leveled by a HIMAR strike, killing every Wagner member inside.

    5:00 and even then, they were not complete victories. You can even call them pyrrhic victories for the amount of resources and time it cost them. Each week they spent besieging Mariupol, the Ukranians entrench, train, and gather resources. In war, initiative matters, and speed is essential.
    Also, 6 months? you can't do jack shit in 6 months. You can get a man fit, and teach him basic wartime skills, but soldiering is a full time job. To get a man on par with the skillsets of NATO and NATO aligned countries requires years of training and doing it. Wagner essentially wants meat shields.
