    Russians are brave, until it comes the time to fight for real ...

    In any case, my good friend Vladimir Vladimirovich hasn't declared a general mobilization, but a "partial" mobilization.
    Well, my good friend Vladimir ... what is the sense of a partial mobilization?
    Lack of resources to equip and supply a general mobilization or "military moderation"?

    Get real. Every country has its neo Nazis and their little parades and all that, ruZZia included.

    Now the ruZZian Nazis have become naZis and are behaving accordingly in Ukraine.

    What's clear is that Russia is not able to follow the American "shock and awe" strategy.
    Ukrainians haven't been shocked and sure no one has noted awe around ...

    Your tweeter feeds produce fakes. Go to Turkish airlines site and find yourself about the tickets, rather than making bla-bla

    At least 1,045 people have been detained across Russia in a crackdown on anti-war protests across two dozen cities in Russia, according to the independent monitoring group OVD-Info on Wednesday.

    More background: Photos released on OVD-Info's Telegram channel showed police in Saint Petersburg using batons against protestors. Videos show police attempting to contain behind barriers a crowd gathering at Isakiivskiy Cathedral, amid chants of “no mobilization."

    Videos from Moscow show several protestors being carried away by the police at a demonstration in the center of the city.

    CNN's Tim Lister Gianluca Mezzofiore and Anastasia Graham-Yooll contributed to this report.

    ...

    “This is an outrage,” one 27-year old Moscow resident told Soldier of Fortune via a secure messaging system. “Putin wants to throw us all to be killed on the front lines.” The young man, “Mikhail,” said that he and other conscription-aged men among his family and friends have arranged to flee Russia.

    ...

    The military will call up 300,000 reservists, Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu said.

    Men such as Mikhail have scrambled to buy one-way tickets to countries that allow Russians to enter without a visa. Popular destinations are Turkey, Armenia, and Azerbaijan. Many flights immediately sold out, while others skyrocketed in price.

    ...​

    The smart ones will get out. The rest will get to see western artillery in action up close :)

    From the chat:

    Bob S: ATTENTION: NO POSTING OF NEWS OR RUMORS FROM OUTSIDE OF RUSSIAN MEDIA! NO POSTING OF COUNTRY LEADERS NAMES! POST ONLY IN ENGLISH! DO NOT USE THE WORDS W*R OR INVASI*N OR UKRA*NE-AND NO CASUALTIES​

    The censorship in Mother Russia is really remarkable to an American boy like me. I've never had to live under such oppression.

    Flight prices out of Russia surge as Putin calls up reservists for Ukraine war
    Published Wed, Sep 21 20228:34 AM EDT

    The cost of flights departing from Moscow skyrocketed as Russian President Vladimir Putin announced a “partial military mobilization” in a televised address Wednesday.

    Prices were rising steadily even before Putin’s comments, and were nine times more expensive than they typically would be in some cases after his speech, according to Google’s tracked prices.

    ...

    A large number of countries have placed bans on planes landing directly from Russia, including the U.S., the U.K., and most of mainland Europe. But there are countries considered sympathetic to Russia that would allow people to travel across — and flights to those nations are extortionate and rapidly selling out.

    Take a good look at that picture folks. There sits two of the dumbest bitches ever to lord over anything....and that's what they think they are.

    On the left...a descendant of Nazis currently sinking the EU....on the right, a pork lover who's ready to launch nukes. It's like dumb and dumber, only the female version.

    Just when you thought the UK couldn't **** up any worse after BoJo, they yet again prove us wrong.

    Putin’s 'partial mobilization' has unleashed more turmoil at home than in Ukraine
    Michael Weiss and James Rushton
    Wed, September 21, 2022 at 2:51 PM

    After delaying it overnight, much to the frustration of a sleepless Russian press corps, President Vladimir Putin on Wednesday morning announced a “partial mobilization” in Russia to replenish the ranks of a “special military operation” meant to be long over by now. Yet few observers or political stakeholders in the West think this half-cocked call-up will fundamentally alter the calculus on the battlefield, where Ukraine’s counteroffensives have been surprisingly effective. Moreover, Putin’s vague threats against the “collective West” have been met with more shrugs and yawns in the United States and Europe. If anything, there is more panic in Russia.

    Partial mobilization, Russia’s first since World War II, falls well short of mass conscription and is likely to be confined (for now) to the country’s 300,000 reservists. Contract soldiers already deployed in Ukraine will see their service indefinitely extended just as the weather cools and winter approaches. “This is a very risky step from Putin,” a senior Western intelligence officer told Yahoo News. “There are big doubts whether this call-up will succeed in the first place, and if not, what message will it send. It also increases public antiwar and anti-regime sentiment throughout Russia.”

    That has already begun.

    ... https://news.yahoo.com/putin-russia-partial-mobilization-ukraine-protests-195109346.html

    I wonder what Putler will do after he chews through as many reservists as he can manage to catch and press into the Ukrainian meat grinder?

    The people, (those close to Vladimir), need to mobilize and take Putin out. If his next maneuver fails, and it's highly likely that it will, what's next on his agenda? Nukes?
    Get rid of him now.
