I'm alright it's the rest of the world that's all screwed up!
THAT is what is going to end this. Get enough pissed-off Mama's and Papa's not getting any answers about their sons and Putin's goons won't be able to stop them.
I still think Putin is going to end up getting wacked sometime soon over all this.

Yeah right
The same Russians that can’t keep tires on their trucks? No, they are full of shit as usual, they are trying to save face here by showing a video that is clearly from an earlier time. Perhaps from the ship’s sendoff?
Especially as the Moskva's captain is taking the salute.
He, uh, went down with it.

Sadly, with the restrictions on Russian tv and some social media, the moms and pops in Russia won't have much say in the big scheme of things, but some of those in the military might IF they're willing to risk it.

That would be the only way a for a place like Russia. This is the country who's history is littered with overthrown leaders only to see a worst person come along. This is also the country who made political prisoners and labor camps a national industry.

That's the Russian naval jack.
Not the United Kingdom's "Union Jack" national flag:

I’m surprised some fool expert on Twitter hasn’t accused Russians of flying the confederate flag.
