    He's been beating on the Chechens since he was prime minister.

    @Mik

    Hate to say it but a lot of Chechens earned a beating. Collectively they have a bad reputation through all the former Soviet republics, not just Russia. They are particularly despised in Ukraine and Georgia.

      It makes me suspicious of Kadyrov getting behind this obvious failure.

        @Mik

        Kadyrov is a hatchet man, an assassin, one of Putin’s ethnic Capos.

        As I say when the time comes for him to die, he’ll die and it will not be well.

            You know he’ll be a target. Of NATO intelligence too.

                Graffiti seen on bridge in Ulan Bator, Mongolia:

                Россия, не связывайся с монголами. Чингиз уже надрал тебе задницу. Мы сделаем это снова.

                Translation: Russia, do not get involved with Mongols. Genghiz already kicked your ass. We will do it again.

                  Who is the biggest supplier of weapons to Ukraine?

                  Russia has supplied more weapons to Ukraine than any other Western country.

                  Ukraine has captured 460 Russian main battle tanks, 92 self-propelled howitzers, 448 infantry fighting vehicles, 195 armored fighting vehicles and 44 multiple-launch rocket systems, according to Oryx.

                            Maybe that was deliberate? Selling the liberation B.S.?
