Monkeys Fist 42457 Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 I’m reading that any new mobilisation of reservists will take months, unless he’s just going to chuck them in there with a stick and a potato.* I think he’s fucked, he knows he’s fucked, and this is a last throw of the dice whilst he works out how to “retire” without eating polonium. * which is quite likely, given that the lads sent in at the start of this were told they we going on exercise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm no fan of Truss but that's a bit much. Does look like we are heading for a potentially dangerous situation. There is NO WAY he can use nukes, even tactical ones, seriously, he'd lose any and all tacit approval he may have from China/India etc if he did. This is a succinct thread, below, there was a really good/detailed yank one I read earlier, but this is much shorter/to the point. Basically - Russia hasn't any longer got the infrastructure in place to undertake a general Mobilisation, even training a up limited Mobilisation is probably beyond them. Many observers believe his canned broadcast last night was because he WAS going to announce a general Mobilisation but the feedback was there'd be another revolution, a general Mobilisation means EVERY single male between 16 and 65 would report for military duty - it'd cause uproar, even in Russia.

Tom 14011 Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 I'm shocked they don't want to fight for their president! Honestly man I can't imagine mobilisation in any modern country going well. You gave them pornhub and McDonald's but now you want them to die horribly in a field full of shit or burn to death In the steel walls of a tank? Good luck. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
