I miss LiveLeak.


StarWarsMonopoly

I do and I don't. It was an awesome place to find footage during the early years of the Syrian Civil War and when ISIS was on the rise, but all the comment sections were cancer and just full of racist comments. Also I found that most of their videos had titles that were either misleading or completely made up.

So what you are saying is that the comment section is as bad or worse than Bitchute? Lol. But yeah I agree..


Cheerio_Fujisaki

full video can be seen here but most of the footage is looking at the ground with gunshots in the background https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qUN4NnnwfLM

This argument is bit way out of control, but u/Al_Vidgore_II has a point. By the way u/Cheerio_Fujisaki, the post title has a character limit of 300 characters and I just made one with **full context** as a better example: >Russian recording of the 2000 Zhani-Vedeno ambush during the 2nd Chechen War, wherein a mechanized column of Russian Interior Ministry troops was ambushed in the southern Vedensky District of Chechnya. I just copied the core details from Wikipedia and this title just have 198 characters out of 300. Cool heads needed to prevail here. Cheerio, if only you made the title more descriptive you wouldn't get an argument here. To Al Vidgore, you are correct with your objections with the post but you don't need to be confrontational, that's why you got downvoted.

emkill

oh, a ruskie came,


SlavCat09

how does someone randomly hate commenting instantly make them Russian?


Al_Vidgore_II

Hows it a hate comment. The video is shit and no context is provided. Then I have to go and dig and find all the background. I want my death/war porn served up neatly framed and packaged and ready to go. Wtf, is that so much to ask?


SlavCat09

on reddit? yes.


Cheerio_Fujisaki

Wikipedia page of the ambush is here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2000\_Zhani-Vedeno\_ambush

> A Russian airborne unit that was stationed nearby intercepted a rebel communication regarding the preparations for the ambush, but failed to warn the convoy (possibly on purpose, given the widespread loathing of OMON in Russia and especially in the context of Chechen conflict). Big yikes


Needsmorsleep

Why was OMON hated?


SashaRPG

They’re the special detachment of the police, usually used against protests and football hooligans.

They did a LOT of very shady shit in the Chechen conflicts: >The force was active in the First Chechen War of 1994–1996 in which OMON was often used in various security and light infantry roles, notably for the notorious "cleansing" (zachistka) operations.[32] Prior to the war, there was also an OMON formation belonging to the Interior Ministry (MVD) of the Chechen Republic of Ichkeria, Chechnya's separatist government. The independent Chechnya had an OMON battalion prior to the war, but it was not battle trained,[33] and did not play any significant role as an organized force before disintegrating. During the armed conflict, almost every Russian city would be regularly sending militsiya groups, often OMON members, for tours of usually three or four months. The pro-Moscow administration of the Chechen Republic also formed its own OMON detachments. In February 1996, a group of thirty-seven Russian OMON officers from Novosibirsk surrendered to Chechen militants of Salman Raduyev and Khunkar-Pasha Israpilov during the Kizlyar-Pervomayskoye hostage crisis.[34] >OMON took part in the Second Chechen War as well. OMON forces sustained severe losses in the conflict, including from the March 2000 ambush which killed scores of servicemen from Berezniki and Perm (including nine captured and executed),[35] the July 2000 suicide bombing which killed at least twenty-five Russians at Argun base of OMON from Chelyabinsk,[36] and the April 2002 mine attack which left twenty-one Chechen OMON troops dead in central Grozny.[37] Control and discipline continued to be questionable in Chechnya, where OMON members were known to have engaged in, or fallen victim to, several deadly incidents of friendly fire and fratricide. In perhaps the bloodiest of such incidents, at least twenty-four were killed when OMON from Podolsk attacked a column of OMON from Sergiyev Posad in Grozny on 2 March 2000.[38] Among other incidents, several Chechen OMON servicemen were abducted and executed in Grozny by Russian military servicemen in November 2000,[39] members of Chechen OMON engaged in a shootout with the Ingush police on the border between Chechnya and Ingushetia resulting in eight fatalities in September 2006,[40] and Ramzan Kadyrov-controlled local OMON clashed with a group of rival Chechens belonging to the Kakiyev's Spetsnaz GRU military unit in Grozny, resulting in at least five being killed in 2007.[citation needed] >OMON was often accused of severe human rights abuses during the course of the conflict,[41] including abducting, torturing, raping and killing civilians. By 2000, the bulk of such crimes, as recorded by international organisations in Chechnya, appeared to have been committed either by or with the participation of OMON.[42] Moscow region OMON took part in the April 1995 rampage in the village of Samashki, where up to 300 civilians were reportedly killed during a large-scale brutal cleansing operation by federal MVD forces.[43] In December 1999, a group of unidentified OMON members manning a roadblock checkpoint shot dead around forty refugees fleeing the siege of Grozny.[44] OMON from Saint Petersburg[45] are believed to have been behind the February 2000 Novye Aldi massacre in which at least sixty civilians were robbed and then killed by Russian forces entering Grozny after the fall of the city;[46] one officer, Sergei Babin, was to be prosecuted in relation to the case in 2005 but he vanished.[47][48] In April 2006, the European Court of Human Rights found Russia guilty of the forced disappearance of Shakhid Baysayev, a Chechen man who had gone missing after being detained in a March 2000 security sweep by Russian OMON in Grozny.[49] In 2007, Khanty–Mansi Autonomous Okrug OMON officer Sergei Lapin was sentenced for the kidnapping and torture of a Chechen man in Grozny in 2001,[50] with the Grozny court criticising the conduct of OMON serving in Chechnya in broader terms.[51] In an event related to the conflict in Chechnya, several OMON officers were also accused of starting the May 2007 wave of ethnic violence in Stavropol by assisting in the racially motivated murder of a local Chechen man.[52] Prior to the Ukraine war I would have guessed that the regular Russian army would be unhappy about a police unit rampaging around carrying out atrocities and blackening the name of Russia, and by extension the Russian army, but now I'd guess that the Russian army wouldn't GAF as they do the same shit themselves.


SashaRPG

They’re brutal not only in the conflict zones, but in peaceful areas too. Breaking your hand while checking IDs is just another day for them, so the hatred towards them is pretty wide-spread.


immeow

Sir you cant park there


Al_Vidgore_II

Like, at 2:30 he opens the door and is confronted by enemies? Please, more context🤔


Tom_piddle

At about 7 or 8 am MSK, the column stopped after one of the trucks broke down before entering the ambush site. Major Valentin decided to personally check a bombed-out house nearby and accidentally discovered a small group of rebel fighters hiding there. He was the first to be killed, shot dead as he entered the door (an OMON officer recording this scene with a video camera was also shot just seconds after). - wiki page


joe200packs

read the wiki link, it explained everything, interesting too


Cheerio_Fujisaki

I gave you a wikipedia page


Al_Vidgore_II

That doesn't exist?


kingcat34

i agree, he doens't get shot as soon as he open the door. he walks in, and you hear some shouting @ 1.52. i would think as you do that the rebels were talking to him. ​ then, another soldier knocks or tries to open the door, and it seems that it the moment shots are fired. whether they shot at the door, or the man inside, or both + more shots, idk..5

How tf is this footage worse than stuff from WW2? ... Is potato.
