“The best sniper in the world at the service of Ukraine,” headlined one French magazine. “He can kill 40 soldiers in one day,” claimed an Indian digital news site. “He holds the record for long-range killing at 3,540 meters,” asserted a Spanish daily.
Wali says that he did not have in-depth knowledge about the conflict, but felt that action was necessary. “Not everything is black and white, but what we saw was a large-scale aggression,” he said.
The Canadian military veteran who calls himself Hrulf says he realized after his first combat experience in Ukraine several weeks ago that he could have died, multiple times.
foreigners eager to come to Ukraine’s defence face not just a brutal adversary, but the chaos and limited resources of a hastily formed network of international combatants.
Eventually numbering close to 30, the Norman Brigade recruits moved to a converted school house that was to be their training camp but was so drafty and damp, many of the soldiers fell ill, says Paul.
Hrulf told them to train on Ukrainian weapons, but among almost 30 soldiers there were just seven or eight AK-47 assault rifles and a paltry 30-60 bullets per person, says John, the B.C. man.
“That is just insanity, actual suicide when you’re talking about (fighting) the Russian military.”
At one point they discovered that Hrulf had a tattoo on his hand of a “black sun,” a symbol used by the SS in Nazi Germany and sometimes by the Neo-fascist movement, Paul and John recalled.
“My friend James who was there literally spat on the ground in front of him … and said ‘this is everything our grandfathers fought against in the Second World War.’”
Hrulf announced there were weapons for only 30 per cent of them. Those who weren’t armed were told to move closer to the front lines and dig trenches, he said.
“If you look at other units like the Georgian Legion, they had one AK (rifle) for every three guys and they were rotating, while we had at least 80 per cent of our personnel armed.”

So USA is sending billions of dollars over , weapons and all sorts of aid. Not to mention what other countries are sending to Ukraine and they have no food , weapons or ammunition?
Sounds fishy.

Sorry am confused.
Do you mean the whole article is bunk (as in he’s not back in Canada) or the fact that we are sending billions in war grade merchandise but no actual provisions.
Weren’t you the one saying US troops aren’t at war?
Meanwhile I just read an article today stipulating the head of the CIA wishes operatives would shut up about wins as it may result in counter attacks by Russians…
Please elaborate.

In this one I'm saying someone is exaggerating the actual claims by someone who was involved in a Ukrainian area where everyone already knows there were serious supply issues in the early weeks, especially in the units that accepted foreign volunteers, in an effort to make it sound a lot more serious than it was, that it happened everywhere in the country, and that it is still a serious concern.

Seems confusing. I was told from the very outset that Ukraine was embarrassing Russian troops at every turn.
Somebody is exaggerating by saying there were supply and equipment issues, but you're saying that everybody knows there were supply and equipment issues.
Next you'll be telling me the Ghost of Kyiv is fake and the sniper in OP isn't really the best in the world, both of which are rock solid facts reported by western media.
Will a trillion $US be enough that everybody that plays "current thing" fighting for Ukraine to get a gun and some ammo? Just wondering how many generations of my family will be paying this war off. Maybe only two generations if one trillion is enough, but I suspect a trillion might be too conservative when this stretches out to a decade.

The only thing you ever say is that everything is Russian propaganda or that Russia invaded Ukraine
You never bring anything to the table because you refuse to open your eyes.

Of course he is, all information on this war is "Russian propaganda" to "PatriotGames4u" if it doesn't fit the MSM narrative.
Now even a well known Canadian sniper who is telling the truth is "fake" and is "Russian propaganda". Calling this well known Canadian Sniper Walli as "Russian propaganda" is just beyond ridiculous and it just goes to show that is only objective for being here is to disrupt and call everything "fake" that doesn't fit the CNN narrative
