    I’m convinced this guy is still alive in a Russian basement somewhere, with electrodes hooked up to his balls

      pfft, Putin couldn’t get anywhere near this guy… the only way was a couple of cowardly missiles up the ass of his civilian jet… the cowardly way… Putin’s way…

        He was surrounded by Wagner officers at all times. That’s who was on the plane with him. They took out a bunch of the Wagner upper echelon. I don’t think that will be as wise a choice as they believe, but we’ll see.

    Russia’s Investigative Committee

    Yeah, that’s about as a reliable a source as WTF this news site is.

        With the sanctions, everyone IN Russia should be scared to fly. Those plane parts are becoming more and more scarce, I imagine

          even if you’re just a normal business who sources parts from Russian companies at this point… i don’t understand how anyone conducts honest business with those people… they’re all liars from birth…

            I’m not advocating for doing business with Russia but I don’t think it’s fair to call all them liars. Remember that the Russian people are victims of Putin’s antics as well.

              that’s a nice sentiment here on the internet… but i’m going to change my mind when i see evidence to the contrary, that isn’t simple barbarism… brutality seems to be the only thing they’re honest about… perhaps you haven’t caught on to just how natural dishonesty is for them… pride seems to prevent a lot of people, especially Americans from recognizing it…

          Didn’t they straight up steal a bunch of aircraft right at the start of the war?
