WNU Editor: My mouth dropped when I saw this video .... and a part of me wonders if it is genuine. But I did see the separatist flag shown on more than one occasion in this parade .... so I will assume that it is real. We all know that Ukraine's rebels are well armed .... but this video shows how well armed they really are. A Hat Tip to Mlacix for pointing out this video to me.

Please, why are you surprised? This is not a separatist army but the Russian army with a very slightly different logo... Common, you are way too intelligent not to see what really is happening.
Ukraine rebels LOL. Allways the same propaganda from this soviet canadian" blogger.
A lie repeated 1000x is still a lie.
Miguel L.M: Could you please specify the part which is the lie in such a news?
WNU Editor,
Why the surprise?
You have seen the vids of the abandoned Ukraine Army armour, and you have seen the vids of the DPR and LPR repair shops, and you have seen the numbers at Lost Armour.
Unlike the Ukrainians, the Republicans are "motivated", they had the trains running in Debaltseve, 10 days after they took the town.
Jay .... I know that they are well armed and very very very motivated while the Ukrainian conscripts are motivated to be elsewhere .... I was just surprised with the clean uniforms and boots. As to the armor .... Donetsk region was the industrial heartland of Ukraine (I am using the past tense on purpose), and one of the world's biggest arms manufacturers. They have the know-how and resources to churn out stuff very fast, and to also repair what is broken very quickly. I am just surprised on how fast they are fast.
WNU Editor,
The ideological impact for the DPR and LPR is huge, and the same effort they have put into their military since the late spring, they have since the fall, put into goverance, the economy, education, social supports.
Once it became clear in the retreats of early summer, that Russia would not be riding to their rescue, they have focused and worked hard on building functioning States.
Sadly, it's an example of what a "legitimate", non- Ogliarch ruled Ukraine could have achieved.
Dress uniforms and spit shined boots are a dime a dozen in the former Ukraine. What made ot clear to me that they were no longer rag tag Rebels, was in the advances after Ilosovask, they had home grown UXO and Repair teams following the advances, making the ground safe and getting the infrastructure repaired, as fast as possible.
In most conflict areas, this is left for the NGO's, after the war is over.
mlacix,
Miguel just comes here to dump off a steaming load of Bandara, then leaves,
He does not engage, discuss, all he can do is yell.
I suspect it's a form of Pravy Sector turettes.
Jay ... I always find it funny when I post a story .... and Miguel then uses my post to say that it proves that I am lying?!?!?!
But this is the first time that I have been called a Soviet Canadian propagandist. Wow .... and I thought I was a person who believed in Austrian economics and a lesser role of government/oligarchs/big business/unions/etc. in my life.
WNU Editor,
There is nothing that you could post on Russia/Ukraine, other than Pravy Sector Facebook Propaganda that would have Miguel post anything other than a turettes stream.
It's a disfunction common to the web.
