  1. You went to kill other people and join the nazi's this is what you get, your grandparents fought the Nazi;'s in ww2 it seems you like the Kiev nazi regime, don't believe the propaganda and the Americans did the same things in Bagdad to the Iraki's no better.

  2. Thank you so much you guys are real heroes 🇺🇦❤️

  3. What a bunch of beta bitches. If they truly cared for what they believed in then they should have died fighting.

  4. Captured on the first mission. Good war story for the kids!

  5. Mercenariers. They ent there for then money and got kicked out by russians. Get used to it.

  8. I feel very sorry for you "fighting" for such a corrupt and criminal regime like Ukraine and its neo-nazi government, military, and militias…I guess you think it is OK for them to kill over 13K innocent people, ethnic Russians, and other ethnic minorities on the territory of Ukraine over the last 8 years or so. How come nobody cared to protest against that? You know, all these people were regular, non-military, hard-working folks, including women and children! Yes, we have known about these atrocities for years and they were reported even on MSM and the US Department of State had all kinds of travel warnings regarding that.
    Yeah, this whole thing stinks but brainwashed individuals like those two are just part of the problem! Now they have bus-loads of ISIS and Al-Qaeda fighters crossing from Turkey to "fight" for Ukraine, hello? We are sponsoring terrorists now to fight wars as long as they are willing to fight on the side of the West and the Globalists? Just look into the history and find out what happened with anyone who tried to get into conflict or invade Russia and its territories. They were all destroyed and starting a war with Russia these days would provoke an extinction-level event on a global scale that we are not likely to survive! Have some people lost their mind or their desire to live?

  9. Too bad these idiots are still around

  10. Can u imagine the iraqi soldiers in ahbu girab prison? The U.S. raped them and took photos of it. They even raped a young child in front of his mother and recorded it. The tape has been a secret for decades and most info about what happened is classified because the Muslim World would go insane if these recordings were ever released.

  11. Russia has released all video of what happens when a person is captured by Russia. These 2 men dont have even 1 scar. They look great. So this story…. It seems this story is propaganda

  12. He would go back to Ukraine in another capacity ! What???
    Does not sound like he wants to fight again because Russians ripped his soul out and left it in the soil of Ukraine to be trampled by the Russians for eternity !

  13. Cracked his ribs for no reason ! What???You can see that the American soldiers were delusional and people like these two idiots will lose the war every time! Russians are just laughing at these guys now! America is this the best you got !
    Perhaps they should go back to Ukraine again to try it one more time!

  14. They should be lucky the Russians did not kill them !

  15. Thank you both for your services hear In Ukraine. Slavia Ukraine 🇺🇦

  16. Don't meddle in Slavic family quarrels. It won't end well.

  17. russia is a truly reprehensible nation that we need to treat as the #1 enemy of humanity.

  18. What part of volunteer did they not understand?
    The hotel's were full

  19. These people are idiots. Leaving their family and fiancé behind to fight some foreign war they don't even have an apt justification to have been involved with. ''Stop world war III" by going there as an American…actual dumbasses. They love the publicity.

  20. Are we supposed to feel sorry for these two morons? Their country murders tens of thousands around the world, who fights for them? Iraq, Libya, Syria, Vietnam, Bosnia, etc

  21. These are just wanna be heroes thinking they're doing the right thing and then blaming their treatment on the Nation that caught them
    Wait till the real fun starts when American soldiers are captured and presented to the WORLD that keeps getting told American troops are not in Ukraine.

  22. VOLUNTEERS remember that.

  23. If it they were Russian in the captivity of the Nazi Nationalists of the Ukrainian military they would not be alive today. War is hell, ask an Iraqi.

  24. Didn't know the CEO of twitter was fighting lol

  25. They tortured us with hand cream we were clearly allergic too!!!

  26. Let's go Brandon got baby formula

  27. Poor guys were mislead by Western Propaganda

  28. It was their choice. Anyone that goes knows the risks. Thousands of international troops have died there. Fighting a war started by Obama, Biden, and the CIA in 2014. The people in the east wanted no part of a western puppet government or NATO. Yet the Azov Nazis shelled their homes, schools and hospitals for eight years with our blessings.

  29. Cross your legs like a man, jesus christ.

  30. They are mercenaries! They should give thanks to God and Russia for still alive!

  31. NO MERCY FOR PREMEDITATED TERRORISTS. Surprisingly THEY let THOSE TWO live …

  32. Hahahahahahahahaha Brittney Greiner hahahahahahahahahah

  33. why would Alex say something different with a reporter that was in the area and reporting on the war?
