    Are we sure this guy isn't just defecting because he realized he was in over his head and made up the spy shit after?

    Nobody would stay in the military if they weren't. Intoxicants, sex, and plunder are the glue that holds a poorly paid bunch of mercenaries together.

        US Navy ships have been officially dry since the Civil War. British Navy ships got rid of rum rations in the 1940’s. The lash was also outlawed in the US navy around the civil war (Idk about the Brits). All they have left is sodomy, and they punish you if you get caught.

    Russians taking the words of a mercenary spook at face value even though he’s done nothing to prove he’s not a double agent lol

    Also, not relevant to anything, but dude sounds like he came from a frat house

      He provided real videos and documents, also intel on troop movements. Not the most valuable stuff ever, it wont change the war or anything but I think he would not have made it to RT primetime if he was BSing.

      Most of the stuff he said is old news so that goes in his favor. Obviously he is not a leftist spy lol, RT is using that to push the correct buttons.

    Next time some lib freaks out about RT being propaganda, ask them if both sides should get to present their case in a trial.

    Yeah anyone who calls themselves a communist and then defects to Russia is a crank, it's not 1946.
