    Link please. Oh and I'd remind that all the documents regarding promotions have stamp 'for duty use only' and regarding money and casualties have stamp 'secret'. So it's the good case to make a call to police.

    Flamethrowers are now being sold to the public

    Some smaller kinds of flamethrowers are used in forest firefighting for creating counter-fire.

    Meanwhile Ukrainian Justice Ministry registers nationalistic party UNA-UNSO. Finally UPA disciples get official status. "There's no nazism in Ukraine"© Also today "Right sector" radical movement activists put memorial plaque at the place of murder of Oles Buzina, famous writer that was in opposition to current Kiev regime and maidan in general. Plaque is dedicated to... killers of Buzina, "unfairly repressed by regime".

    What? Christian rules? Let me remind you that LGBT crew is to be ashamed and burn in hell according to Bible. So 'Christian rules' are gone (Charlie Hebdo support shows it even better). Unlike Muslim ones. Agree. But if there are plenty of stupid people among natives, why should Europe get even more from outside?
  5. The problem is that they still have some... ehm... physiological particularities that don't help in combat service at all unless they are on hormones or steroids. Also I suppose there is a large number of documents and instructions that is to be changed, and this costs some money. All this in sum makes the value of few females in combat assets very questionable.
  6. Like it or not, but males and females are different. And there are roles that suit well only either for males or for females, of course if the best result is needed. Even here it was discussed, also I remember the same discussion at passed away mp.net forums where those who do serve in armed forces for a long time honestly say that it is impossible to put females for all the same male roles in army without lowering standards, adding extra facilities for women etc. Otherwise there would be only a few females who are able to meet requirements (I mean physical). And tons of money spent on changing many documents, manuals, laws etc. If females in masses could really fit male roles, there would be mixed sports teams in football, basketball, hockey, joint athletics competitions etc. But still there are no such things. So why do some people think females can serve well in the roles that is performed by males in army, especially when army service and combat tours are much harder that sports? BTW dual service is practiced either during the total war (like in USSR during WW2) or in the countries that are surrounded by hostiles like Israel. What hostile countries surround USA? Or does it prepare to another world war?
  7. If a significant amount of them can do this without lowering of standards and requirements - yes, why not. If a couple of them can (like those butches in the first post) - than it's stupid waste of taxes on re-organizing for sake of damned political correctness.

    European Politics Thread.

    I got it after 3 months of monitoring adverts at tens of sites and journals. Sometimes there are urgent sale adverts with very nice prices (both on cars and flats), I've bought my flat thanks to one of them. BTW during recent trip to Crimea I compared local prices for flats - they are almost like in Moscow. For example the cheapest 46 sq.m 2-room flat in Feodosia (town I lived in during vacations) starts at USD 45000. Those in Yalta cost almost as in Warsaw or even bigger.

    I suppose I'm very lucky because I got 51 sq.m flat on 1st floor (but in old house built in 1949) for USD 11800. How about moving from capital to smaller city? No work there at all?

    Eh... How much will such flat cost to you? Is it in newly built house or used one? Okay.

    In this case ordinary people may be confused only by ignorance of report authors who aren't even able to look at wikipedia.

    You may take any other source and see the same. 16th airborne brigade had existed until 1944. Then it was reorganized as 303-th Guards rifle regiment. And since the end of WW2 there was no such brigade (neither airborne nor air assault) in both Soviet and Russian army. So the joke of DPR soldier resulted in shitstorm in all the Ukrainian media which took it as a prove of Poroshenko's mantra about Russian army in Donbass. <_< Oh maybe evil Putin invented time machine and brought 16th brigade from WW2 to current time.

    What's the point of walking at the border with AEGs when real 'banderowcy' may have ordinary firearms that are available in masses since robbing of army and MIA weapon stocks during early days of maidan? Right sector thugs have even .50 cal machineguns mounted on jeeps. Isn't it a bit silly for their counterpart in Poland to boast airsoft guns?

    Mentioning of non-existent airborne brigade (the fact that is easily proved just by google) makes OSCE role and qualification of report writers really questionable.

    I ask Polish forum members for some clarifications about newly elected president of Poland, A.Duda: is that person really his relative (claimed to be granduncle)?

    Anti-corruption right wing? Oh aren't you kidding? So why that right wing (BTW being foreign product since Austro-Hungarian empire times) tried to mess with cigarettes smuggling that is going outside Ukraine (hint - recent Mukachevo clashes) rather than interrupting smuggling of the same cigarettes of Russian origin inside Ukraine to Harkov region (which goes from the country proclaimed as agressor)? If Ukraine is in debt it still can buy many goods after getting another loan from IMF or others. And when the time to pay back the debt comes, here comes something like the recent law that permits to sell the lands of agriculatural funds to anyone without any restrictions. The famous Ukrainian humus. Or another stage of privatization or re-privatization, now pleasing interests of foreign investers. Oh and if the country is corrupt but has some fancy natural resources and educated population it's even better for large companies to make business just because corruption means no regulations, no problems with ecological norms and taxes, cheap labor force that has no abilities to keep their rights secure.
