"More than 11,500 troops were lined up in ranks on Red Square, including 1,500 who have fought in Ukraine. Drones - the biggest technological innovation of the war - were paraded for the first time, as well as tanks and intercontinental Yars missiles capable of carrying nuclear warheads.
Ukraine attacked Moscow with drones for several days this week, though there were no reports of major attacks on Moscow on Friday amid a 72-hour ceasefire declared by Putin.
The Soviet Union lost 27 million people in World War Two, including many millions in Ukraine, but pushed Nazi forces back to Berlin, where Hitler committed suicide and the red Soviet Victory Banner was raised over the Reichstag in 1945."

They lost 27 million people to defeat evil in WW2 that is such a big number it is hard to imagine but they did it.

I caught highlights of it on Youtube and they put on some big military parade with other countries sending troops to celebrate the event.

Hopefully we will not have a WW3 any time soon.

Hopefully we will not have a WW3 any time soon.

Amen brotha we live in dangerous times.


I watched clips of the historic victory commemoration in Moscow today, it was really outstanding how well it was put together with participation of so many countries and world leaders. Who said president Putin or Russia is isolated, today showed that not to be fact.
