I considered posting this under the comedy section of the forum, but I guess I didn’t
The wax figures are very funny, the rest is absolute decadence. the wax men are as well but still funny. lol
If I were going to revolt against my govt, I’d have moved the millions in cash and gold bars sitting in suitcases in my home first. nevermind his disguises for changing his appearance.
A master of disguise. These people are beyond satire.
they move in circles we simply do not understand. considering the look of that Chechnyan Kadyrov, those disguises don’t surprise me
He looks like Borat

Maybe those are only the tip of his “iceberg of gold and cash”?
Sorry for the meme pic they use. I wouldn’t have used it:

As you have seen, I work a bit less on this thread now. Will post a lot when big things happens, but I want to post less in general since I can have a tendency to spend too much time updating this forum and therefore burn a bit out.

And I doubt anything big will happen before the Vilnius meeting tbh.
Interesting thread though on Klischiivka south of Bakhmut, where heavy fighting is taking place.
As i said 2-3 days ago, Ukraine should soon be in control of that village unless the tide suddenly change. Whoever thought attacking Russian trenches would be easy for Ukraine because of limited Western equippment like tanks (and there were many who laughed at the Russian dragon’s teeth and trenches, none are laughing now; as these are incredibly formidable obstacles to attack when you don’t have air power) was always bound to be in for a shock.
This is also why the focus from Ukraine has been to create conditions for Russian reatreats, making their logistics as difficult as possible. You cannot fight through all of these trenches without catastrophical losses. But you must fight through many.

Steve Rosenberg is absolutely top drawer. The fact that he is fluent in Russian gives him a lot of kudos and he’s not shy to capitalise on it , often asking the kind of questions that might see other journalists banned , or worse.
I think he’s lived in Moscow for about 25yrs now and there was a piece he did just after Putin had passed one of his draconian laws threatening any critic of the war with imprisonment. He said that for the very first time in Russia he felt that just by doing his job he was jepoardising his own safety. A fact highlighted recently by the arrest of the Washington Post journalist.

Strelkov writes on his Telegram channel:
“OUR troops continue ‘meat assaults’ near Avdiivka. It seems that the headquarters of 1st army corps is in a hurry to cause maximum waste of the maximum number of our fighters to lose the war sooner.”
