#1 Did they use the wrong pronouns?

#2 Isn't it illegal for generals to conduct their own diplomacy with other generals? If it's not, it should be.

#3 /\ Russia demands loyalty from it's military establishment.

#4 But Russia is not fighting Washington, or a NATO ally. Instead Washington is just butting in as usual. Trying to hold economies to ransom over some egocentric powerplay by a comedian backed by rich NWO cultists. Why would they pick up the phone? And how do we know for certain that Milley and Austin are even trying? They serve liars and are liars.

I repeat. Russia is not at war with America. Or even challenging their allies. Or in any conflict of interest over economic or strategic balance. It is trying to prevent an unfair tipping of the balance of power. Something the US has done more times than necessary in all continents. It's not about rebuilding a Soviet union or subjecting innocent people to misery. More misery than the collateral in Ukraine is being threatened by sanctions on countries not involved in this mess. It is the same cancel culture applied in macro. "Denounce Russia with us or else!" Like "Accept that Democrats law or else!"

The Biden establishment is dragging America into craziness. And for those who think it's not Biden against Russia, ask yourselves if Trump would have bothered to go this far. If he was in office NATO would have never considered expanding. Trump would never fall into this "lets you and him fight" game Soros has put everyone in.

...This is actually something we've been doing for years, all quite officially and above board. It didn't get a bad name until that fu@kwit Milley decided to go making phone calls on his own indicating that he didn't support his own CoC. Should have been relieved and court-martialed on the spot, pour encourager les autres.

#6 Are we sure the Russian generals refused? They might have been killed in the field.

#7 They know Vlad's losing, paranoid, and monitoring their comms. Why would they commit "suicide"?

#8 Funny that Russia's replacing its failed generals and improving its officer ranks while America's military is stuck with corrupt and stupid incompetents like Milley who obsess over political correctness

#10 Lol... Russia's culling its herd. America's filling its herd with genetic mistakes

#12 And Biden gets snubbed by Saudi Arabia! What is the common denominator here? It couldn't be that DC is viewed as being full of weak fools. No, I'm sure that's not it.

Yeah, but it's OK when we do it because...because...well, shut up you traitor!

#14 To be fair, there is a cadre within the US military literally cutting their balls off to show loyalty.
