Sabotage and assault reconnaissance group "Rusich" posted on their Telegram channel an instruction for "recycling the Ukrainian POWs". I translated it in full as it is quite informative Image
That is Milchakov, commander of "Rusich" group
That's how he first got publicity in 2011 btw. Future commander of Rusich and then afootball fan Milchakov recorded killing and eating a puppy and uploaded it all in the internet Image
When Putin's deputy for Ukraine Surkov was visiting the DPR and LPR he convened the leaders of Novorossiya troops. Milchakov came of course Image
Here you can see him with a Russian-imposed governor of Crimea Aksenov. Logo on the wall:

"The Union of Donbass Volunteers" Image
Two photos of Milchakov with his fighters. The swastika like symbol on a T-shirt of a guy below on the left is Rusich emblem Image
And that's another Rusich fighter - Topaz. It seems Milchakov is purposefully recruiting guys of a similar psychotype. The end

Regarding mobilisation, Putin can declare it, indeed. But it will be a risky decision. The USSR maintained a massive infrastructure for the total mobilisation which has been mostly dismantled in post-Soviet Russia. Mobilisation is more likely to trigger political chaos

short🧵
Imagine, the government declared a total mobilisation and millions of young males are drafted into the army. What next? Now you need to:

1) test & allocate them (who goes where)
2) train & arm them
3) quarter & feed them
4) place them under the capable officers and NCOs
In order to execute 1-4 in case of the war, you need to maintain massive *excessive* capacities in the peace time. And the Soviet Union, did. One reason why Soviet army was so horribly excessive is that it maintained enormous excessive capacities just in case of mobilisation

Under Putin Russian social structure has been turning more and more rigid. It is recruiting too few ambitious upstarts, mostly in its economic agencies. Putin increasing and increasing retirement age for high officials means that option of "joining the table" doesn't really exist
That is why a significant number of the ambitious endorsed the war with Ukraine wholeheartedly. They hoped that artificial crisis will create the window of opportunities. Imagine if much of the current elite is purged for corruption/lack of patriotism? So many new vacancies
There is a nice study (unpublished) on the diverging regional strategies regarding mobilisation. Some governors are mobilising for the war unironically. Others are bullshiting and faking it. And there's clear correlation between the age and the BS/non-BS approach to mobilisation

I'm looking for an editor. I need to polish a 25 000 words long study on a certain military industrial complex. So, I am looking for a:

- Native English speaker
- Preferably with media/academia/other relevant experience
- Preferably familiar with defence/tech/manufacturing
In the beginning I will give you a general introduction in what it is all about. Most probably, in the course of work we'll have to organise further one-two calls with my team. Compensation is negotiable. Please DM me, if interested
PS I think I could offer around 1500-2000 usd for a well-qualified candidate with relevant experience and competences. If you've heard about AutoCAD or SolidWorks for example that certainly gonna be a plus point

Ukraine has won the battle but not the war (yet). The sooner it wins, the less people will die and the less the poor of the world will suffer from the supply chain disruptions. Donating to the Ukrainian military, you can accelerate its victory. I collected some verified links🧵

2. Pletenetskaya Alina collects funds for the ammunition for the Kharkiv military.

As a result of the 1908-1913 revolution and subsequent purges, by the start of the WWI Turkish ruling class was aggressively and outspokenly secular. Jacobin-style secular, I would say. Halil Kut literally ordered to pour the strong alcohol (raki) on his grave Image
When I say "Jacobin style" I mean it literally rather than figuratively. In the early 20th c Turkey was run by the francophone elite speaking on a language of and with the tropes of the French Revolution. For example, when an army NCO was killed by the dervish-instigated crowd...
Ataturk ordered to proclaim that town where it happened the "ville maudite", evacuate population and destroy it completely, leaving only a monument to its destruction

Anyone with the basic knowledge of French history would get the reference Image

Paradox of ecumenism. The very idea that Turks and Azeri share the "similar religion" could rise in prominence only after Turkey (moderately) and Azerbaijan (radically) secularised

Secularisation -> Few care about Shia-Sunni differences -> We are one people, actually
Same with Christianity. I'll argue that secularisation made it easier to build pan-Christian movements. Few know or care about filioque, etc., so it is now much easier to work out a pan-Christian agenda than in the age when people actually knew or cared about the Christian creed
Secularization -> Dogma forgotten -> Substantial differences forgotten.

What remains then? Only the vague idea of cultural similarity. Which is more than enough to build a political alliance. Turkish-Azeri alliance is possible largely because these two countries secularised
