Not sure if it’s a “high dugeon” though.

Two Rwandan “journalists” got life imprisonment at The Hague for precisely this.
RT @BrennanRapport: @JuliaDavisNews This is a direct call for a war crime. It’s not an unusual thing to hear on Russia TV, but it adds to the evidence for the inevitable war crimes tribunals. https://t.co/eRBKqMpgCO

I know of no culture that only speaks about the need to annihilate everyone else: Berlin, London, Washington, Poland, the Baltic States.
Yet as soon as the fetters of state control are removed in their own country, all they want to do is loot their own.

Animal garage: “four wheels better”
RT @jodyrosen: Today is something called #WorldBicycleDay, so pls note my book Two Wheels Good will be out in paperback 6/13. (Also the book is about the bicycle as a global phenomenon, not a parochial U.S./Euro one. Therefore approx 87% better than the avg bike book.) Happy World Bicycle Day https://t.co/rsBqEK9ik3

200 anti-Putin Russian partisans capture a Russian city of 50 thousand.
Seems like good odds for more “we can’t do anything against Putin” opposition to get with the program.
RT @TrentTelenko: When you read the following
"The Russian authorities have lost control over Shebekino..."
Think:
"Collapse of Russian Civil Authorities, panicked civilian evacuation and mass looting."
200 guys haven't taken a Russian city of 50k. Russia's biggest enemy here are Ru…

Thread by @andrewmichta
RT @andrewmichta: 🧵A few thoughts as I head back to the Oslo airport after the @Equinor-@nupinytt political risk forum on long-term consequences of the war in #Ukraine. First, I am even more convinced that this is a system-transforming war. Countries close to Russia get it (Norway included).1/10

Bombing their own country wouldn't be a problem for them but they would do the work for Ukraine and drive Russia's already paranoid schizophrenic media and society utterly bonkers. While on the defensive lines they'd have to attack across their own mine fields.

With all the talk of Russia digging in and preparing their defensive lines, it would be a riot if the much anticipated counter-offensive actually did turn out to be a combined force of elite infantry along with Leopards and Challengers thrusting up into Belgorad Oblast. 1/n

Good thread on Russian MoD mobilization plans -- posted and then deleted.
RT @ABarbashin: Wow. Russian MOD published a report on mobilisation in Russia and deleted it shortly after. But web archives still has it.

As I quickly scroll in my mind through the armies and countries I know -- their treatment of citizens, minorities, the quality of life and respect for human rights, a trend if not a truth emerges:
A country's army is a reflection of the country itself.
