Hey Legends, I hope you enjoy this. My style of long form is too let the guests tell their story.
The captions are AI Generated so some are incorrect, But I know it helps people who have English as a second language.
Thanks Guys
Yooo brooo......keep on interviewing 🐀,s like this if you wanna see your viewer/followers drop off....
Just have a look at the number of views on your previous videos compare to this garbage you uploaded today.
Bro I love everything about your channel and how u run it (maximum respect 🫡 to u) but I noticed you give everyone a chance to speak freely (respect) but u only “push back” against the Russian guests
@@JamoneTv Bro stfu you just say that because you have sympathy for Russia Willy is more neutral than most like Denys or Alex Historylegends who are partisan asf, just like people like you
1:12:20 not to sh*t on the georgian dude but im eastern european and he's completely right about the family part...1000% right ..BUUUUT the EU doesnt and CANT change the eastern Europe cuz our politicians n leaders continue that mentality...and IT MATTERS more when a political party does it than just some shop owner...because politicians REALLY CHANGE the country and show to the new generation how the system really works. So NO it doesnt need 30years...we've been in the EU for more than 30 years nothing changed...The funny part is the west at first was all about meritocracy...but lets be real...THEY ARE DOING THE SAME THING...especially USA...the lobbying in DC is EXACTLY THAT...
subscribe n like on the video just for the milk joke...hahahahah this dude is really eastern european
he certainly is an american fanboy lmao
Willy OAM your community is toxic toward Ukraine. Your videos do not help Ukraine either.
Why is he comparing the Russians to Animals and already dehumanizing people with blatantly racist remarks?
Because he is a Nazi, don’t you see?
Because he’s an actual Nazi. It’s what they do.
Maybe because he saw what Russians did with Ukrainian kids and women in Bucha? This Nazi propaganda sh*t is not working but keep working my sweet delulu kings 🫶
Lmao wth. He says PMC Wagner was the toughest he faced in Bakhmut, says they were good soldiers and had great equipments, even their tankers were great. Then goes on to say "we made it look like we were putting in resources and meat into Bakhmut just so we could bait them" lmao. Just felt like a typical steroid guy.
And being a Mongolian, I now have beef with him when he says he's from the toughest place on earth.
Insecure much?
He "fought" Wagner on Instagram and lost.
If you want to put a bet on the outcome where he joins the battle always bet for the opposite side.
He said that Russians are evil because they are half Mongolians 🤣 How would you respond to him?
Wagner had great equipment, but no NV. This guy single handedly held Atemovsk at nights. True NAFO warrior.
🤣🤣🤣@@potok440
They traded land for time to do what exactly? To do the failed 2023 summer counter offensive? We all know how that turned out.
I dont think Ukraine expected it to be so heavily mined. Yeah, they saved a lot of weapons in reserve from bakhmut, but didnt get to use any of them. Doesnt mean what he is saying isnt true though. Lots of human resources used in bahkmut though
@@ArchesBroThe tanks and the IFV are being used right now in pointless defense of Donbass. Trading time for land would only make sense if you have the capacity to replenish your forces over time in a much more accelerated phase than your opponent. That's why Russia always used that strategy against technologically superior enemies. Because they can always come back stronger where as your opponent cannot replenish the losses in the same rate as you can. Ukraine doesn't have that luxury. Out of pre war population of 40 million only 28 million still remain in the country. I don't think Ukraine can replenish it's forces that to the level that is require to turn the tide in this war. This would result in slow attrition of Ukriane side both in terms of outside support and the amount of troops it can mobilize.
It was explained in a video, how you listened..?
Like.. it's not even a fair question, for what
You think about one thing, but it can turn another and so on
They traded land so they could go to India and build toilets for them
Ummmmmm not sure I am buying everything he is selling. Ukraine absolutely dumped tones of resources into that city to defend it.
I'm thinking the same.
A lot of manpower, but not many of the more modern weapons. There is a difference. Unfortunate the path to cut the landbridge was mined to hell so it didnt make much of a difference they had the weapons reserved
@David45sadesperation ?
@@ArchesBrolol ,not many of modern weapons 😂 then why did they run out of weapons 😂 if mines are a reason for those modern weapons to be destroyed, how can they be "modern "
Every time he leaves this podcast, it might be tge last tine we hear from him

Why is he always telling "everybody" they have to do this or do that? Is he high ranking or was he talking about a couple other guys but sounded like he was referring to 30 due to language barrier? Haven't caught his rank or role yet (about half way through).
Willy how do you keep a straight face in these interviews
The same way he does when he interviews pro-ru people
How comes that every time when some mercenary talks about his contact with Russians they are alaways VDV, Specnac, the best of the best... i mean... where are the regular conscripts, military with showels????
conscripts are mixed in with already existing groups to be sent in first. Do you fool think there will be a conscript-only battalion?
Who upvoted this comment? He very clearly described them as not trained well in anything.
Why do you straight up lie and make stuff up to seem as if everyone is lying about the Russian army?
Conscripts only join the military when there is a war....dummy
@spicesmuggler2452 im just making observation, but if you really want to know then i can tell you that around Kiev '22 90% of RAF were DPR/LPR, there was small number of VDV (airport) which was drown back after initial push. So basically this guy was fighting against teachers, butchers and miners. If he meet VDV once in his "career " in Ukraine then probably he wasn't going to be live, to tell baby stories on RUclips
@@georgytioro You are clueless. In hostomel most VDV came from Pskov.
Haha , thanks for that first 15 minutes of anti Russian sentiment and history lesson! Lol wasn’t it Stalin who was Gorian? Also love that BS about no water and food but studying abroad!
Yup typical bs talker 😂
Hes right, Russia did commit atrocities against his people including vandalizing ancient churches.
@@hia5235 "vandalizing ancient churches." - Thanks to Stalin
@@hia5235 It was called Sovjet Union.
Don't forget Beria was Georgian too...
Is he some kind of high officer, considering that he can direct the HIMARS fire, call the artillery support, arange everything, knows everything.
So a Blow hard ? 😂
He is Insta boy and promoter
This guy is directing HIMARS strikes. Soldier X is consulting about strategy.
Are we seeing a pattern here?
@@jonathanjacob5453 interesting friends Willy got there
@@jonathanjacob5453 Soldier X said he gave advice, not that his advice was ever requested or listened to.
Hmm interesting, he said VDV was shit but the British guy in GarandThumb’s latest video said if VDV, SSO, Alpha group were there you were in for a good fight. Your other guest said they are lethal and were lucky to be alive. Luck of the draw I guess?
@Ahmaurnamu Elementary. This guest is a fabulous chatterbox)
It makes sence if you think a little bit, what he did describe was the start of the war and battle of Kiev. At that time attacking party was in total disorganisation and that was obvious. After that he did speak about battle of bakhmut where majority of heavy lifting was done by convicts and wagner, he did prise the original wagnerites, not the convicts. Imo only from the autumn of the last year the russkies managed to reorganise their army and now regular army is doing the heavy lifting. Just how i see this conflict.
Yeah agree. Alpha group along with the others are no joke. Before the world cup they had a crazy demonstration video of them training to retake the stadium if anything happened. It was crazy. They appear to be just as high speed as any other tier one. There are some awful videos on bitchute of The units you listed fighting, crazy to say they are shit unless he was being somewhat sarcastic.
VDV were of higher quality but some amount of dilution happened after some time
As seen previously, they are armed like VDV ,look like VDV , but seems they picked some random guys off some village to fill the ranks , same with the spetznas
I understand why he fights and why he tries to get more support from the US. But he contradicts himself. On the one hand he says that the US would wipe the floor with Russia (so imagine what NATO would do). And one the other hand he says give support or you will fight the russians in berlin. How would the russians be in Berlin if NATO would easily wipe the floor with the Russians? 😅
You are misunderstanding him, he is saying it is more expensive to fight farther west. You would need to evacuate, the economy would stop, maybe use more precise weapons to prevent NATO civilian deaths, NATO cities would be destroyed by the conflict. He is correct though that Russia cant compete at all with the US military or NATO countries
Are you sure?
Isn't NATO being demitilirased? @@ArchesBro
@@piupiu234 Lol, where did you hear that from? Or did you just dream it up yourself? The weapons the US gave Ukraine were all excess, even the ATACMs missiles were stuff the US wouldn't use made 30 or 40 years ago. However, Russia is definitely depleting vehicles, aircraft, missiles. Not to mention a large portion of the black sea fleet sunk. Russia is getting their version of Vietnam. Very pointless stuff
@@ArchesBrothat is not realistic. And Russia has certainly not lost "the majority" of the fleet.
Georgians juste hate Russians for obvious reasons and like Ukrainians they try to convince the world to join their fight with BS arguments.
if Western propaganda were human…….
lol
The guy not once mentions Avdijevka. So much for that.
wasn't Stalin ....Georgian XD
They would use that information only if they were proud of him, just like Austria doesn't like to hear that AH was Austrian but can't hide the facts.
Yes and he wiped out basically all prominent georgians of the time
@@lashatatu and now Russia and Putin are blamed for it
@@web30web He was Georgian but he was Ruller of Russia, If he were True Georgia he would have granted us independence but he basically forced Lening to invade us in 1921. Gave Georgian territories to Turkey, Azerbaijan and Armenia.
Because we are rebellious people, he wanted to subdue us.
We Georgians have problem with Rullers of Russia, doesn't matter ethnicity of those people. There are no ruller of Russia who was good to Georgia or Georgians.
@@lashatatu I pretty sure the country was named as Soviet Union. Hello from Finland.

The Battle of Bakhmut ended in May.
Pay attention to the actual timeline of events.
@@valiantone395 Russia wouldn't take Estonia even if you would pay them for it.
@@patrickmayes6071Bakhmut killed the best Ukraine brigades before the offensive.

When WAGNER was driving towards Moscow I said Moscow is not important.
😂😂😂
Kiyv is not important 😂😂😂😂
Odessa is not important 😢
Russia itself isn't important 😂
Trading land for time is an old Russian/Soviet doctrine that makes sense for Russia due to its large population and vast size. However, it makes little sense when applied to Ukraine. Unlike Russia, Ukraine has neither land to trade nor men to spare for such a strategy to work. So, if anyone believes Ukraine is trading land for time, they are deluding themselves. Ukraine is losing land it desperately wants to hold and men it cannot replace, which is the exact opposite of what the trading land for time doctrine implies.
More importantly they loosing big part of the 2014 defence works they will need way more menpower and resources to hold unprepared areas which will stretch the Ukrainians even further
That's not what happened in Bakhmut, though. In contrary.
Saaaaar full sapport Russia i need russian wife 🇮🇳 🇮🇳
Interesting how he dislikes Russia for having all that military presence in the country and ruining it for generations. But at the same time he goes as a mercenary to do the same to the people in Afghanistan.
So you think that liberating the entire female Afghani population so they can go to school and have a job is “Ruining it “ 😂😂😂😂
@@zaynevanday142 remind us how did that liberation turned out.

Oh wow, how interesting, even Georgian Stalin is Russian fault, this guy is lost cause.
And Jewish Hitler was Jew fault, right? Fool
And you think stalin is stalin because of Georgia? His ideology is full of russian ideology not georgian
The smugness is killing me
Pride and arrogance are the hallmarks of Satan's foot soldiers. You can see the same arrogance in Israeli soldiers.
I'm confused, is this guy currently in the combat zone ? Wherever he is it seems quieter there than where I live. And for a seasoned combat veteran he looks remarkably well fed, well groomed and relaxed.
Could be injured for all we know
I am Georgian, following this guy since he started his channel, which he is not actively managing right now on RUclips, he was always well fed, if you know Georgian kitchen you know haha. He is very skilled, he is legit.
@@levan613mate I thought Georgia & Russia were friends ?
Lol that means nothing. I know a dude who’s been in wars since he went to the french foreign legion at 18. And since has fought in 10 different countries, latest war was in Ukraine in Bravo Team(a special forces team assembled from foreign fighters) he is like a healthy 220lbs and seems very calm on the outside, listening to podcasts it’s very clear he is not calm on the inside at all.
What you see in Ukraine, Destroyed cities, abducted and killed Ukrainian patriots. Looking for fascists to eliminate them. Was about Georgia before and before it was Moldova and before it was Chechnia and if West will think that life is drinking coffee in the morning and enjoying croissant, Russia will take whole Ukraine, Georgia, Armenia and will go for Baltic states. He than will have not only regular idiots from Russia, but new ones, who we all will find in our neighborhood. Imagine what can happen to Georgian citizens, if they kill they're opposition leader in prison and don't even blink.
He says Ukrainians traded land for time in Bakhmut. Next time you ask him what they achieved with that time? I mean, they got tanks and what not but what did they do with them. Ad the same time he admits that Russians dug their lines deep. Now I wonder who used time of Bakhmut better.
I don't think 30 Abrams, 13 Challengers and roughly 100 Leopards are considered a lot of tanks, especially when Russia is claimed to have ten thousand. So sending them a couple of tanks or a couple of older F16s will not help them get the upper hands. Had they sent them 300 Leopards, 300 Abrams and about 300 F16s, then you would have a good argument
Some tanks are nit able to repair becuase they didn't get spsres, some tanks missing parts, all haven't been received in good condition. So go to another videos, channels, press because this channel is not 100% real as other. Use critical thinking that helps a lot.
@@lenkazimmerova8491 You're right, actually the best source of tanks for Ukraine it's still "soviet era tanks" that Czechia repair/refurbish for Ukraine. Only problem, just few factories produce ammo for thoses tanks in Bulgaria and maybe Romania... maybe Poland?
Ukraines biggest problem is that it's logistics are a shit show, it's getting equipment from many different countries.
@@thomaslacornette1282 biggest store of ammunition to tanks exploded in 2014 in Czech republic town Vrbetice. It was done by 2 russians in army clothes. 2 civilians died. So there are not any. Factories, stores were closed. Now they are opening them again. I think they'll change it for west ammunition.
Does it make sense to anyone that a front-line soldier in a live interview talking about a war that's still going on explaining their tactics, how they grind the enemy soldiers. Yet they leave lot of prisoners for the enmey.Hello.. On one hand, Russian don’t know how to fight on the other they have good defense, we can't push them.
Foreign Legionaries don't fight in the most heavy fighting zones, Polish mercenaries refuse to fight in Bakhmut, most Western Volunteers fight on the lower intensity combats fronts where they get a little tactical wins now and then.
New the our western Nazi PR? It's ALWAYS like that.
Listen to all our western 'leaders' and NATO guys: they tell the same shit. Russia = incompetent drunks and idiots who get crushed by Ukraine - but if we don't send more weapons and money to Ukraine, those incompetent drunks will overrun Europe.
And everything they tell is like that. Because they are liars. 100%.

Just like Ukraine is now…😂
after about the 50 min mark he talks about the strategy in holding Bahkmut for 10 months; how does he know this to be true, is this just gossip or would this strategy have been communicated by high command to troops on the ground?
Surely the men on the ground know what the strategy is or atleast can have a good idea of what it is since they are the ones there actually doing it
🤷♂
I'm thinking this guy was the official fluffer for Azov! 😂
I'm guess any halfwit can get interviewed by Willy?
😂
As long as they talk about how TERRIBLE things are in Ukraine
But u don't care when Wagner fighter in one of the Willy's interview said that he went to "kill russian enemies" because of 20% antri-russian comments in internet.....
Just a russian chauvinist here. I have been in Georgia 2 times, best time, best hospitality, and best wine too. 70 years of common history and good relationships are still alive. Some people there are very emotional like your guest today to my Imperial bear taste, but I guess I need to do the same as this guy and say that all of them are potentially bloody butchers like Joseph Vissarionovich Dzhugashvili(Stalin)
to be honest if not for the rus empire Georgians and Armenians probably now under Turkish influence and Islamic.
And then this guy would want to genocide Turks.

@@web30web what is Gulag?
@@web30web paper tiger russian military is...., until now, even mothballed ww2 hand me down Nato arms to Ukraine smashed russia & stopped them in its tracks.. these are the Facts whether u like them or not
The guy even looks like a NAFO bot 😂
My interpretation of why RU pored so much into Bakhmut is completely reverese of the Georgian fighters take on it: While UA was 'fixed' in Bakhmut and RU was sacrificing convicts, RU got a window of opprotunity to make necessary adjustments to their already shattered army while also being able to fortify Zaporizhzhia. Isn't that one of the main reason UAs counter-offensive failed? Isn't that why RU has the upper hand today? When Bakhmut was over, RU had prepared this huge army while UA was exhausted from fighting Wagner for 9 months.
Another interesting interview Willy OAM. Documenting these combat experiences is important work. I hope you will continue to put together these insightful interviews so that we can better understand this war.

Boomer still afraid of them?
Great insights, certainly explains some of the logic in post-soviet thinking, as well as the reasoning behind some of the war tactics. I heard the argument about dropping bakhmut defence a while back before it was taken over by vagner, but it always came down to one conclusion - if they drop the defence effort there, they will still need to put in the resources and set their defences further inland into Ukraine...
very knowledgeable guy, he seemed very educated and reasoned
Tough talk from a 5'4 "guy, lol Like every lil dude in the gym. Nothing but barking. Another PMC is looking for thrills. If diabetes doesn't get you, the Russian will. Just go closer to the front line.
Ask him when was the last time he got paid and the British foreign fighters who were murdered by the Ukrainians
Here is an example of casuistry mixed with beliefs based on hatred)). And these soldiers of fortune will most likely face criminal cases in their homeland.
By the way, if you interview a Russian soldier, he will most likely talk about the need to live in peace and harmony and unite against external threats. That's why Russia is so big.
Like his former president Saakashvili who was first a president in Georgia then decided to move to Ukraine serving as the head of Z's National Reform Council until UKR got tired of him. He will be another one to bite the dust and Rus will be blamed for
@@web30web All these guys are on the wrong side of history.. Soon the world will start to change and they will feel that everything is not as they expected.

great interview . Usually I don't think much is gleaned from these interviews as individual soldiers experiences don't tell us the big picture but I enjoyed this interview more than any Willy has done . Partly I think this guy is likeable so that had something to do with it but also he is knowledgeable about the war and history behind it . He's biased of course but we can see his bias .I feel like this interview actually taught me about the war and not just some war bro boasting about his combat experience .
Narcissistic turkey.!!! Under the USSR, Georgia consumed 4 times more than it produced and lived better than others.
For Georgia, independence resulted in mass unemployment and severe destruction of its industry, which is currently, to put it mildly, vegetating.
What else could happen whit palladins like this.He says he is some kind of force for good but seems like some thug.
Rusophobes never learn...
At 2:31 he says that "is normal for Georgians to be very explosive"... At what degree? Afghan or Iraqi?
Thank you for another great interview, Willie. I love them, keep 'em coming! In this case, I appreciate that someone else shares a similar view on the West always putting everything on Putin, like any state is not made up of its parts.
Nice, another poor lost soul.
The AI captions are a nice addition and better than what YT has at the very least
right on
Did he really went to Ukraine for fighting?😅. He must be a NAFO guy who fighting in Twitter. For sure he is watching alot of Ukraine propaganda videos from RUclips😅. Hats off Willy for didn't laugh at him during this interview😅. His story is good for Hollywood propaganda movies 😅. I found strange that Denys Davydov RUclips commentary updates and his story are almost similar. Probably he must be Deny's frontline battlefield informant guy😅
ruclips.net/video/H_tFePW9AEM/видео.html
I would start laughing when he said how they only fight special forces like Spetsnaz, the other story about directing Himar and artillery would end the interview 😁
You know that Willy carefully vets the guys before interviewing them, right?
Youj can be quite certain, this guy is who he claims to be.
@@rantanplan178lol you can't be certain on anyone other than he's in Ukraine, Ukraine have a lot of people that are there behind the lines making videos and shit. Me personally I know someone that was fighting in bakmhut and what this man says is complete bullshit Ukraine thought they could hold it and they pumped in 10s of thousands of troops and the death toll was very high on both sides also the fact that he spends most of the interview blowing smoke up his own arse no soldier I've ever met talks that way about themselves it's always we done this or we done that not I single handily destroyed hundreds of enemies or I'm the greatest soldier on the planet with my few years training I had in the Georgian army honestly go talk to a soldier that's been through the shit he claims he has and it hits you differently everything they talk about is engrained in there memory and they relive that moment in time when talking about it but there's a few possibilities maybe he's there behind the lines or maybe he's been told to do an interview and big up the ultimate fighting force that is him and ukraine
@@rosshughes7977 yadayadayada
I said "you can be quite certain, the guy is who he claims he is" and not "the guy is right with everything he said". Learn to interpret dude.
Who you certainly know is anecdotal at best. You are no one and you could be a Russian troll in the worst case. So why should anyone believe you more?? Fugget about it.
When it comes to Bakhmut, casualties were high on both sides and we won't get to know the true casualty numbers until years after the war. It's fair to assume however, that Russian casualties were higher. I doubt though the K/D was like 10:1 in favor of Ukraine as he claims. That's Ukrainian prop surely.
Last not least, you probably don't like to hear, what he has to say, and hereby neglect everything he mentions. Willy interviewed people from all parts of the spectrum. Heck, he even had a Wagner guy on his channel, allowing him to freely spit out his Russian bullshit. Wasn't easy for me to watch that one. Still, I respect him, like I do respect every man who puts his life on the line and in the end, he is just a human being. A funny one but also a very nationalistic one. So, don't say the interviewee "is an artificial character" just because you don't like what he says. Don't forget, he is just one soldier in one specific unit and experiences can vary vastly. With that being said, we could certainly agree that his statements show the most "optimistic" view on the Ukrainian situation, which we have heard by a Ukrainian fighter in quite a while.
Awesome interview need more of the georgian spartan

@@DJ-jq8if Maybe Russia was inspired by something too.
@@mickpeterson3722 like what, dude? lol you’re just reaching now. They were invading nations to expand the Soviet Union. Just accept Russia is just like the US. Opposite sides of the same coin.
This is my favorite person ever.
Emotional detachment is underated skill, great interview
Gotta wonder exactly where he ACTUALLY was when the fighting was happening . Sounds like ge stuck around till he was "needed" at the rear.
Busy with your daughter
42:57 After years of the houthis using drones against Saudi nato never envisaged them used against nato…
And this guy thinks being nato compliment is a good thing, the Africans are smarter than this guy 😂
He's not fighting for Ukriane he's a Pawn of British Bankers.
Auzi Brother, YOU did not Study the Ukraine Nazi History Your Problem..
Clown thinks he won the battle of kiev.
Fairly sure the Russians lost the battle of Kiev...
AND they were beaten by an ETHNIC RUSSIAN - Oleksandr Stanislavovych Syrskyi
Cyka blyat this they say is NOT FAIR !!
I would not be surprised if he comes with his own biography book. Lies must be written so he doesn't forget. He is also afraid nobody will remember him because he spend most of his life outside of Georgia.
@@patrickmayes6071 Nope, what they did their worked out perfectly. You only can come to the idea tha Russia lost there, if you are so stupid to think that they tried to take the 3 million people city Kiev with a few tousand soldiers.
@@miriamweller812 Who is currently occupying Kiev?
This guy must have know Dakota , fucking loved dakotas story so interesting to hear another perspective . As soon as he said Mishune I’m like hold up 😂
Love these longer interviews Willy. You let people tell their stories and then leave us to make our own judgements. Also known as a primary source!
Just like what Tucker Carlson did 😂😂😂
@@zaynevanday142 lol, really. Public perception matters
On the one hand, it's is a fantastic open to interpretation interview
On another hand it's usefut idiot, a place for propaganda to go through, you didn't pressed him with questions enough, to seek the truth
I used to criticize Willy's journalism a lot, but now I kinda empathetic
@@user-te2ef2jc6d i dont see Willy as a journalist.He is more a video bloger.
amazing interview! Thanks
Fighting for Ukraine, when you're not Ukrainian, is dumb as fuck. UNLESS you're a merc and making bags of coin.
You give Georgian a chance to run a country, he starts Gulag and shake hand with Austrian.
Based Georgian. You saw these times? They was crazy, you never know which mustaches are your friend or not
To be fair, only 30.000 Georgians sided with Hitler, 700.000 fought against the Nazis.
@@miriamweller812 I didn't mean those Georgians, I meant the handshake between Georgian from Russia and the Austrian from Germany. Do you need further hints?
Im more than happy to write the dialog next time for the person subtitling the video
These long interviews are the best, Bill.
Wrong bakmut served time for russians to build defenses, ukraine fell for that trap. Not the opposite.
You're acting like Russia couldn't do both simultaneously. You NAFO bots are ridiculous, stop acting like Russia doesn't have any sort of capabilities or basic competence to do what is essentially minor things that could have easily been done over a century ago. I'm fkn tired of seeing it from you guys. Is Russia doing the greatest in this war? No. However, is Russia just a bumbling toddler that can't even walk by itself? No. Give them at least some sort of credit, if for no other reason than to protect your stupid nafo-ukrainian soldier's lives by taking the threat posed by Russians seriously.
Agree or disagree with his views but listening to people who actually lived through war is fascinating even when you have to filter out the boasting like with this guys. Thanks for the work you do Willy.
Ya idk. Something seems a little off. Every weapon system from his friend sniper who was running a barrett to calling in arti sup to himars ets.. idk. Maybe im wrong
Looks like a nutter to me 😂😂
What did he say about NATO doctrine? That in all countries are the same 🤦🏻♂️
There were multiple articles from NYT to WaPo with interviews from soldiers who stated the exactly opposite.
That's why those who were trained by British couldn't get in sync with thise teained by Spanish or Portuguese forces.
Probably about the quality. It's shit in all of these countries.
Willy, OAM, Glad to see such a great interview. You have very good subjects.
Willy you are #1
-Stalin was a georgian...
-Russia voluntarily gave you independence without a single shot fired.
-Russia could have annexed Georgia at anytime.
-You occupied Afghanistan ruining the lives of millions for decades.
These nato bots are real thinkers.
Amen
Ive never heard one of these mercenaries say anything sensible about why they're fighting.
Yeah because the sensible ones don’t do interviews 😂😂😂
But how could you call classic western narrative senseless? Just insert buzzwords Freedom, Sovereignty, Democracy and you have massive war support, with no questions as a bonus
Because it is difficult for them to admit that they fight for money and killing.
The Russians destroyed the whole village but could not destroy 1 house for 5 days ?
Hi will the news is the Russians are using a drone called super can they can be 50kms from the front with resolution like there right above the site which make easy pickings to strike
Lol where does Willy find these clowns?
couldn't win in his own war now he has to be in someone else's lol
He was 8 years old when Georgia was invaded
@@BattlesAndBeersWarStories Chubby. can start new one, but first he needs to lose 20kg.
ez orc
@@SirWilliamDeHooton
A Goblin.....
Putin is undefeated.
We listened to the "Domino Theory" for eight years during the Vietnam war.
This is your first interview I did not finish to the end. His exaggerating and main character syndrome is just too much. All enemies are of the best russia got, but the best equipped he faced was Wagner...
I love the interview's Willy, be well mate.
More Zalensky than Zalensky. Too much fire. That's Zalensky in Georgian body.
I'm not buying about Bakhmut he said, about America Navy. A swarm of thousands drones or missiles can take American fleet.
He said like Russia don't even have nuclear missile submarine.
He is more America than American.
He is coping hard.
The president of Georgia is a French citizen. Never having lived in Georgia or speaking the language until becoming president. She’s a nato tool but at least has a brain for not wanting to invite another war with Russia.
I don't understand the negative comments about this guy. He has interesting things to say, personable, seems genuine
@7:06 So at 7 years old (or a little later) he decided that (because of his Georgian culture) he must "stand up to Evil"....when I was 7 I was playing football and cowboys and Indians... nah bye, bye.
I actually am a philosopher who served 20 years in the military and wrote a book on AI in war! Who knows maybe you might like it
Wild Tea still growing in Batumi without any notice from human. So it was not bad idea to grow there if after 30 years of collapsing Soviet Union it growing by itself. And its still collecting by locals and selling it. If you want to buy georgian tea it can be done easilly. There are some local teafarms exists in Ajaria nowadays. So it was not bad idea by Soviets and was good for georgians in Soviets to earn money and develop industry providing the whole soviet union tea market.
yeah but this guy in way too anti russian and anti URSS to see that.
Bro, just because you can pick some wild strawberries where you live doesnt mean it is a good place for a strawberry farm. What are you smoking
@@ArchesBro why? If nature environment is good for wild species it means that you can cultivate it. Before tea was cultivating by Chinese, it grows as wild. India tea - the same story, it wasnt native India culture, it was brought from China and cultivated to special sorts. Now it sold aroud the world. Ordinary story
@@ArchesBro Actually, bro, that's pretty much EXACTLY what that means.
