A Mercenary From Iowa

This is  Ryan O’Leary. He currently is in the Bakhmut area of operations fighting under the command of Ukrainian officers. Mr. O’Leary is not happy. He is a 34 year old alumni of Carroll High School in Iowa and a National Guard veteran who served in Afghanistan and Iraq.

So ….. is he a hero?  A monster? Or, just a deluded idealist?  I will say this …. he’s got some brass balls.  I mean, calling out his Ukie commander by name (Captain Baroda) is fucken insane!! I think I see “death by friendly fire” in Ryan O’Leary’s future.

[Side Note:  The NY Post — which has turned into a Shit Rag — hasn’t had a paragraph mentioning the Ukie disaster (thousands dead) in Soledar.  But, they did have a story today (here)about some random Ukie woman, a fucken accountant,  whom the Russians tortured … putting her hands in boiling water and then ripping out her fingernails. Riiiiiight.   No word yet whether Russians are eating fetuses right from the mother’s womb. fNYP!]

He must be wrong. He says there is corruption in Ukraine. No way… 👎 not possible honest Joe and his boy did business deals there. No corruption at all. Trump and Putin are the crooks. They stole the election from Hillary. Luckily Joe beat Trump fair and square.

Have to agree with the many here. He’s about as stupid as they come. He’s not doing this for idealistic reasons tho, he’s doing it because he likes destruction and killing, and the pay is good. He cannot quit, he’d be shot immediately. I’m willing to bet his overlords are watching him very closely and when they think he’s a risk to them, they’ll send him and his boiz into a meat grinder and they’ll all merrily skip to their doom.

What kept him going wasn’t thinking of his family, but his anger.

“Sounds really bad but I mean, you know some of the stuff that I’ve seen that the Russians have done is nothing short of a war crime,” he added.

He mentioned he is enjoying his time home, but misses Ukraine, his unit and wants to get back there to finish the job he started.

“My goal now is to get Russia out of Ukraine and if that means sticking it out and fighting for the next ‘X’ amount of months, so be it.”

O’Leary said he will be heading back to Ukraine at the end of June to finish his contract to fight for the country. Once he returns, he has eight months left.What kept him going wasn’t thinking of his family, but his anger.

To answer my question above, yes, there is a contract and also, yes, he would be shot. He could have stayed here but he would have been sued for breach of contract. He probably believed the propaganda that the Russians would be easily defeated. Thought maybe he could get a little excitement and some easy money.

Again, sucks to be him.

I was reading thru these tweets yesterday as this mercenary, or someone “advising” this fellow was deleting those tweets in real time. Quite interesting to watch… He went from having numerous tweets to having none. Gotta hand it to the guy though he has balls of steel.

I half thought about capturing some screenshots, especially the one where he accused a very high ranking General of wanton corruption. Any ways he was a bit “spicy” in how he described that fellow.

He has signed his death warrant..

Check it out folks! All the “problematic” tweets are gone..

One of his tweets he mentioned that his troop is being moved to Bakhmut. He said that if things don’t change, the corruption not dealt with, that in that city will his grave. This guy is a dead man walking dumbfuck. He is moar than a bit suffering from a delusion that is about to become permanent and kidding himself bigly if he thinks what he did is going to help the troops that serve with him.

My guess is he will end up in shittiest place in that city. Forced upon by the Wagner Prisoner Battalion or destroyed, using co-ordinates kindly supplied by Kiev, by Russian artillery. Along with everyone he serves with that he thought he was protecting, he is about to learn that you don’t go to the most corrupt country in Europe and then complain about corruption.

This is one response he got from a pro-Ukie bot..

I found this out using this youtube channel. I decided to not bother with screenshots because the moist damning accusations are shown in video below..

It would not be the Captain that I’d be worried about. Rather the Major-General in Kiev that he accused of corruption should be for him enemy number one.. He did name the General in his tweets. I should have saved that screen shot.. dammit! Reason being that it is very difficult to find this info after the fact on the internet.

The name has been scrubbed even from the GP bit above.. which I find interesting.

A search for name now comes up with nothing..

At any rate, part of the reason for lack of posts here is that I spend most of my time monitoring pro-Russian accounts on Telegram. The difference is quite jarring. Of course it is propaganda as well but it does at least balance out the shit being spewed from the MSM and Gateway Pundit above..

No sympathy for this guy. He knew the risks involved with being a mercenary in a foreign country. He’s complaining because he’s on the losing side and he’s never going to get paid. He’ll be lucky if he escapes with his life.

Col. MacGregor has been saying for weeks the Ukrainian soldiers don’t have enough supplies. They’re not trained to handle the equipment that’s been promised by USA/NATO. This guy knows hell is about rain down on him in the next few weeks. The ground in southern Ukraine is nearly frozen and the Russians will be mobilizing soon. There’s a big Russian offense that’s about to go operational and this guy is panicking. Being a mercenary is only advantageous when you’re on the winning side. This is not another Iraq/Afghanistan where the private military sector is going to rake in trillions over the next 20 years. The end of this war is near and it will be decisive. They fucked around with the Russians and now they’re about to find out.

Unlike the days of Hanoi Jane Fonda, the past 20+ years shows U.S. subjects aren’t free to go abroad and choose sides, whatever the merits, and even if a formal state of war is not declared by Congress/regress.

If Ryan had chosen to merc with Wagner Group for coin and glory, back home on the farm, FBI special agents would round up his family or lawyer for abuse/interrogation like clueless John Walker Lindh’s were. Any Soldier of Fortune expects this extra-legal arrangement in our post rule-of-law kakistocracy.

It seems he fell for the mirage which is the Ukie “resistance.” Not much different from Americans rushing to Spain during their civil war in the 1930’s to join the communist forces going by the “Republican” title and having “Lincoln” included with their terminology. Fighting Franco in Spain was all about fighting fascism. In the ‘Kraine, it appears fascists are fighting a resurgent Christian Russia. But then every ethnic demograph has the right to self-determination except for the peoples living in the Donbas and Crimea who overwhelmingly voted for returning to Russian authority and representation.
