There's something wrong with their swastikas.

They've probably got only rehearsal armbands. The swastikas are probably still being made at the factory, but no worries, they'll be ready before the parade.

Apart from anything else, marching in high-heels... That's elite!

Ukraine clams to have killed Major General Andrey Simonov in an artillery strike on his command post.

Confirmation is lacking, but a claim this specific is too easy to debunk for a fake to be likely.

Serious question: At what point do Russian Colonels start refusing promotion to Major General?

Or are Russian Colonels also getting regularly killed off, and they're just not important enough to hear about?

Probably exactly that.

Z is half of a swastika, because Putin is trying to be Hitler and half-assing it.

That's some true evil shit, holy hell. Now I want to know what these guys did to deserve that.
One of them was an accountant for a gas company linked to Putin
Probably knew too much

* "But, sir, I'm Private Ivan Ivanovich Ivanov..."

Haha.

I was about to say, isn't the rank of colonel awarded to every Russian making it through Kindergarten?

Russia's Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said in an interview on Italian television on Sunday that the fact Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is Jewish does not negate the Nazi elements in his country.

Lavrov added that Nazi Germany's leader Adolf Hitler also "had Jewish blood."


Looks like Russian diplomats are as skilled as Russian generals

From what I gathered Putin thinks that anyone that even sets foot in the Ukraine even for a second suddenly becomes a Nazi.

Israel is outraged and angrily summoned the Russian ambassador.
Israel's minister of foreign affairs says Lavrov's words are 'unforgivable and scandalous', adding that 'the jews didn't murder themselves in the holocaust.
