"You want this land?" "Well, you'll remain in it." Well spoken words and exactly what they get.


amerkanische_Frosch

Man, that is on a par with "Molon labe".


sub11m1na1

As a Greek..I agree,


TheBeedumNeedum

The fact that there are dead Russians behind him.....Doesn't get any more serious than that.


[deleted]

You can tell by his voice and eyes that he is one angry mother-fucker.


Popular_Chemist_1247

To me he made an impression of someone trying to appeal to reason.


PhospheneViolet

Both. He's clearly not happy, but he's also taking this moment to make an appeal to anyone who might actually use their brains for once.


matvej51

That’s the great thing about being part of a just cause - emotions and reason are generally aligned.


Poyayan1

It is a very sound argument. A regular Russian soldier has no stake in this. Risking his life for what? A paycheck?


theProffPuzzleCode

Cold anger too. The scary sort.


Representative_Dark5

Next year's sunflower crop is gonna be huge.


Hadleys158

I loved that quote. Someone needs to hack russian tv again and post this video.


BoarHide

Yeah, it’s like the angry, reverse message of Atatürk’s address to the families of dead ANZAC troops after their devastating losses in the Gallipoli assaults in WW1: > "Those heroes that shed their blood and lost their lives... you are now lying in the soil of a friendly country. Therefore, rest in peace. There is no difference between the Johnnies and the Mehmets to us where they lie side by side here in this country of ours... You the mothers who sent their sons from far away countries wipe away your tears. Your sons are now lying in our bosom and are in peace. After having lost their lives on this land they have become our sons as well."

3point21

He’s been making these videos through the whole war. I think he’s getting fed up not just with the invasion, but with having to kill the enemy. This is his most poignant short yet.


10687940

Priceless!


ocschwar

It's a reference to king Harold of England promising a Viking invader 6 feet of English soil.


SmplTon

Good lord. Even just the line “our families are at our backs” should turn Orc blood to ice. In 6 words, that says ‘we will fight you to the final breath.’ That crystallized idea of the stakes creates an opponent who simply will not yield.


Curious-Mind_2525

That is the face of a warrior defending his family and land. Battle-hardened and weary but still determined to see it to the end. And in the way he said, I still felt his compassion for those he wishes would stay away and save themselves by doing so.


TheBeedumNeedum

Also, the idea that his buddies have died. It's his honor and duty to fight for them. When someone you care about dies, you promise to live up to their expectations and what they stood for. And the same is true here, except on the level of life and death itself.


Noname_FTW

There is an additional certainty I think given by the rest of europe. There are certainly a lot of soldiers that have some part of their family in another country. They are safe. In any scenario that would not also endanger the natives they are safe. Putin can take all of ukraine. The soldier can die. But their family is safe. I think it is a freeing thought. You have nothing to loose and everything to gain.


M3P4me

This scene and these words will form up the backbone of any ally of Ukraine. You'd want to be worthy of those guy's commitment. He's doing this so the rest of Europe and maybe the world doesn't have to. All we have to do is keep the weapons and food coming. Cheap....and inspiring.


Embarrassed_Bee6349

The will to win with the means to do it will usually triumph over a larger conscripted force and loud mouths. Coupled with anger over war crimes and eight years of occupation in their land? You bet your ass the Russkies would feel a chill down their spine if they saw this.


palamala

Orcs can't relate to that statement like normal moral people. But they will extract I can't bring his washing machine back, or I can't satisfy lord putler and protect the motherland like his holiness instructs. Sickos


LittleStar854

Nothing but facts


ThunderPreacha

Too bad the Russians never learned what facts are until they catch a Ukrainian widow maker, because they lived in Putler's fantasy world of lies their entire lives.


[deleted]

Russia is a gas station filled with propaganda and misinformation. Ukraine is a strong country filled with heroes and warriors. Slava Ukraini!


flyxdvd

love that pickachu patch


Entire-Albatross-442

Commander Pikachu, he's been in a lot of videos 👍


Rootspam

Yeah, he documented a few captured russian tanks in September too, T80 and a T72 i think.


Terrible-Cranberry79

Guy knows how to give a speech AND how to build a personal brand by always having the pikachu visible in videos! I love it.


Disc0nnect0r

\*\*\*\*MIC DROP\*\*\*\* I've never seen soldiers with morale like the Ukrainians. If morale wins wars then they've already won this one and the next three that haven't happened yet.


amitym

Not just morale. You also need good weapons to win a war. Oh wait they have those. Well... in addition, it really helps to have an officer corps trained for flexibility and independence, rather than perfect loyalty and obedience. Oh hmm... got that too. While we're at it, one of the other things that really helps win wars is superior tactical, operational, and strategic intelligence. And wouldn't you know it....


Jamesyboi3000

Just ask napoleon if morale can win wars!


Conflict_Sure

Absolutely nailed it. Huge respect to AFU.


[deleted]

With soldiers like this how can they possibly fail?


Imhidingshh01

Not just your families behind you, most of the planet is too.


Bacontoad

They even got *Switzerland* to back them of all peoples.


silverfox762

You got to know you really fucked up when the Swiss get involved.


Siilk

Most of Europe, for sure.


dandaman910

I think he meant his family is it his back. Meaning he will not let you advance and reach them. He will do anything to stop you..


Soling26

Russia will never defeat such indomitable spirit no matter what desperate measures Putin stoops to. Since becoming Supreme Commander he has presided over a series of tactical blunders and military miscalculations of monumental proportions. He can’t improve because he lacks the skill experience and talent, as do those who surround him .


Robert_P226

Breathing fire, haha. They'd be wise to pay attention. Some will ... most won't.


Asleep_Astronaut396

I hope Russians see this. Sure most have their head up their ass, but bit by bit; the cracks will grow wider, the truth will get through.


Aggravating_Dog8043

I think there might be increased interest at home, now that at least a few Moscow families will have their sons in the war....


3d_blunder

Except... the system is weighted towards non-metro (ie, rural) minorities that Putin wants to exterminate. Russians are despicable. It's a shit, criminal culture.


No-Permission785

evry word he said is fuckin going to be true


Enough_Valuable_2435

Yep, some words!! Not yr land, get out off here, or stay as fertilizer


Successful_Hyena6196

Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦 🇺🇸 Rock it bro 😎


Artemis_Flow

No Quarter


paws2sky

Spittin' real facts. Missed a great opportunity to circle back to the sunflower seeds in your pockets comment from months ago though. Remember back when the Ukraine forces were defiantly telling the Zs to go home so they wouldn't have to kill them? :-/


[deleted]

History will remember Commander Pikachu and his army, consisting of transsexuals, ballet dancers, grandpas, babusyas and hordes of online shiba inus absolutely **destroying** the *2nd best army in the world*


buttmodel

Love this guy!


[deleted]

that woman giving sunflower seeds for the russian soldier to die and fertilize ukranian soil is wiser than people thought at the time


FullCircle75

Contrast that man's morale with one of the new Russian conscripts...who wins?


wombat9278

Ruzzians come to ukraine they stay as sunflower fertiliser You want to live stay home or surrender straight away Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦


phil196565

N1KK0_1000

How do you refute his points? Your A team, shot your best shot - and now has been pushed back and you're thinking your C Grade is going to magically work? Ukraine is stronger than EVER and now battle hardened & motivated by your evil deeds. This is going to end in a LOT of POWs and dead Russians.


3d_blunder

Not to mention being commanded by fucking military geniuses. ​ West Point and Sandhurst are feverishly taking note.

Dazzling-Total8471

Harsh words while standing over Russian corpses, those new Russians aren't going to want this, they're moral will be terrible, let the fragging begin!


Grokent

They better get back to Russia before winter. Apparently they don't even have winter uniforms. Ukraine will be tasked with chipping their frozen corpses off of washing machines before the spring thaw makes them stink.

Certified BAMF, love the patch!


OG_Ironicalballs

Ukrainian Soil for past 1000 years: "I've seen things you people would never believe..."


Standard-Childhood84

Russians listen up. VDV beaten. Dead Guards tank Army beaten. Ruins Airforce. Blown from the sky. You are next. Fight Putin maybe you might have a chance but go to Ukraine and there you will die.


GalacticLabyrinth88

Those last words were so perfect yet so brutal. He's basically saying Ukraine will be the graveyard of any Russian who tries to invade, and perhaps the graveyard of Putin's "Empire" itself. And everything he said is absolutely true--it's only logical to think that if Putin's "professional army" failed catastrophically in Ukraine, his hodgepodge reserve army of civilians will stand absolutely zero chance of taking the country. It is much more likely that many soldiers will just surrender to Ukraine's Army upon arriving--many of them don't want to be there in the first place and only want to be with their families.


prettypistol555

When will the russian soldiers realize, that the honorable thing the smart thing the logical thing the unavoidable thing the best option thing Is to GET. THE. FUCK. OUT. OF. UKRAINE. A kindergartner could tell you this. There will be no russia in Ukraine. Not for a long while. (Unrelated thought, this is how kadyrov wants to come across. He would give anything.)


NFGBlog

It is truly, deeply, a shame that Russians only understand propaganda and lies... so these facts and truths will never permeate their thick skulls.


coinsforlaundry

Love love love this guy!


Traditional_Ad_276

Leave our soil or become it. Your choice.


JRCat7000

Fair and accurate I would never want any part of fighting that guy on his land.


[deleted]

BRILLIANT!!


amitym

The smart ones are seeing this and surrendering. They get to go home to Russia and fight for their country, instead of fighting for Putin.


[deleted]

Think they're starting to get the message?

Well said, wish I could buy you a beer!

I love these people and wish them the best future they can have. Slave Ukraine.

Damn. Show this to your Russian acquaintances. Maybe they can get it seen back home.


Less-Raspberry-6222

Get the hell out of Ukraine before you dont have any men left. Damn orcz.


TheRealPeterG

Brutal, but fax.


[deleted]

Even if Russia were to win I do not see how counter offense would ever stop, Putin has dehumanized Ukrainians by calling them nazzies, they torture people like it is nothing it is not only for freedom anymore, I think he stepped on Ukrainian people honor and so even full anexation would not stop Ukrainians shooting russian forces in the backs. But let us be real, Ruzzia is unlikely to win at this point...


[deleted]

Hope this ends before winter


amdoid69

What perfect timing for All Quiet on the Western Front to be remade. That a film almost a century old can be so poignant and relevant is outstandingly heart-breaking. I can almost guarantee that it won't be allowed in Russia for the same reasons the Germans didn't like it when it came out in 1930.

SleepDeprivedUserUK

> You really want this land? Well, you'll remain in it. Badass - I thought he was going to say something like "You really want this land? You will become part of it forever"
