What’s fascinating to me is that the Russkies don’t seem to bother to even hide what’s going on when they’re discussing amongst themselves, but if the West asks them, all of a sudden they don’t know anything. It’s all just a spontaneous uprising and Putin is uninvolved, not giving weapons or anything.
It is being reported that after Strelkov’s TV appeal yesterday, 500 people signed up with the DNR in Donetsk in one day, while 300 volunteered at the Rebel recruiting office in Moscow. He said that with only 8-10,000 more soldiers, he could stop Kiev’s invasion cold.
The Rebels have set up recruiting stations in St. Petersburg, Moscow, and Rostov.
In another video, Gubarev and a Russian nationalist Sergei Kurginian sit down for a conference. It turns nasty, because separatists say Russia’s help is garbage, they want the good stuff. Kalashnikovs they send are rusted, 1 in 4 RPGs don’t shoot. Strelkov (the separatist commander) called them out for it, why is Putin not helping more. The Russian nationalist Kurginian calls them liars and cowards for retreating from Sloviansk.
