Russian President Vladimir Putin is congratulating veterans, servicemen and military personnel with Victory Day

"This year marks the 75th anniversary of the start of World War Two. In that moment, the lives of the Soviet people changed. Our first priority was to save our homeland," the president said.
"Our army sent the army of the aggressor back where they came from," he added. "Our fathers and grandfathers were able to defeat this enemy. Our people brought retribution to the Nazis."
"Nowadays, civilization faces a new threat. We stand ready to build a new block of international security to defeat terrorism," Putin said.
"Today is the day of the Great Victory, Hooray!"

So Netanyahu went to Moscow...

Putin's telling Nate the way it's gonna be?

It's an old one. Here's this year's speech:

President of Russia Vladimir Putin: "Citizens of Russia,
Veterans, soldiers and seamen, sergeants and master sergeants, warrant officers and chief warrant officers, officers, generals and admirals,
Congratulations on Victory Day!
This holiday has always been and will always be the dearest, most sacred day for each family, for all our huge country, a day of national pride and eternal unfailing memory.
Seventy-three years ago, the Great Patriotic War ended, Nazism was crushed and its atrocities, outrages and barbarity were terminated, and plans for world domination were defeated.
The defeat of the Nazis was a tremendous triumphant Victory. This long-awaited word immediately circled the planet. All countries, all people back then understood that the outcome of World War II was determined by the Soviet Union, that this great sacrificial feat was achieved by our soldiers and our people.
It gained Victory at the cost of the hardest, irreplaceable losses; it defended the honour and independence of our homeland thanks to unparalleled courage on the frontlines and on the home front. However, attempts are made today to cross out this deed of the people who saved Europe and the world from slavery, from the horrors of the Holocaust, to distort the events of the war, to bury the true heroes in oblivion, to forge, rewrite and corrupt history itself.
We will never let this happen. We must cherish the memory of the courage of the warriors who gave their lives, of all our soldiers and the brave fighters of the Second Front, of the contribution made by the anti-Hitler coalition countries, of the brotherhood-in-arms of those who stood up against Nazism.
We will always take pride in the fact that the Soviet people stood its ground and did not yield to the cruel enemy, while some countries preferred the disgrace of capitulation, hypocritical compromise or direct cooperation with the Nazis.
Our people fought to the death. No other country repelled such an invasion, evacuated under enemy fire millions of people and thousands of factories, which practically off the wheels started manufacturing equipment and munitions for the front.
The impossible was achieved. Nobody thought of themselves and everyone worked heroically, including women and children. For the Motherland, for Victory. For those who were defending our country, their families in the thick of the war.
The courage of our warriors is immeasurable. All of them, from a private to a general, fought in the cold and the heat, in small and large battlefields. Each military line was part of the Fatherland, and for that reason, every one of them was the most important.
Our troops won great victories in the decisive Battles of Moscow and Stalingrad, in the battles near Kursk and on the Dnieper, broke the siege of Leningrad and liberated European capitals. They took Berlin in the conclusive assault.
Their background did not matter throughout that time: where they came from, what their ethnicity or religion was, which region of the vast country they lived in before the war, and whether they were drafted to join the army or volunteered for the front.
Everyone had one Motherland. Everyone fought as much as they could, until the last round, until the last drop of blood.
May 9 unites generations through a history of courage. Each family has its own heroes, who live on in our hearts. They are with us in the ranks of the Immortal Regiment.
We bow to the cherished memory of all those who did not come back from the war, to the sons, daughters, fathers, mothers, grandfathers, husbands, wives, sisters, fellow-soldiers, relatives and friends. We mourn the veterans who passed away.
Let us observe a minute of silence."

Such a shame that he took the wrong path while he had the historic chance to come clean. My heart goes out to the people of Russia who deserve better than to be thrown into the meatgrinder by the millions again, all based on a bunch of lies. Oh, and Russia looked so much better when it still had a history that stretched back thousands of years, just saying.

Putin doing some manly chest thumping is he???

And here's the Immortal Regiment. People bear portraits of their relatives who fought in the war.

I wonder how many millions there would be this year...

Paper Mache Armata Tanks, thousands of empty steel Tubes on Trucks, going through Red Square at one end, coming back in to Red Square through the other end. The bankrupt Russian economy wants to give the impression of having substantial armaments.

Watch for the Tanks falling apart as the Cardboard Weakens.

Russophrenia - a condition where the sufferer believes Russia is both about to collapse, and take over the world. Since 2013, instances of this ailment have reached epidemic-like proportions in certain parts of Washington, London and Brussels.

This.

Would the real Russians please stand up?

Well, it's obviously is a show, a relict of old Prussian army of 18th century.
But just look at it as a big memorial service for 27 million of Soviet people (of which only 1/3 were soldiers) that perished in WW2.

But even so it has its utilitarian purposes. At the very least, every regiment in the Parade is lead by the commander of corresponding war academy or army subdivision. Which means that people bearing such position must be capable of marching. It prevents army command from becoming a bunch of old fat men.
Hell, last year the leading Tu-160 White Swan of the aerial section of Parade was piloted by the Air Forces High Commander...

What do you mean, huh?

Real Russians, you know, not some shit stirring juice, like yourself.

Whatever. You are not making any sense. You are claiming I'm not actually Russian? On what basis?

ffs we do not need another brother war!

We should join forces to conquer the whole world!

Get rid of the traitors in our midst and there won't be no need to conquer anything.

Kick out the j e w s and the Muslims. Let's do it again!
