The above is a link to a Powerline post. The political section of the post is neither here nor there.

However, the embedded music video is one of the mostest, bestest, awesomest, scariest, interestingest things I have ever seen.

FYI, the Leningrad Cowboys are from Finland.

There are two separate groups that are semi-officially called the Red Army Choir. One of them lost 64 members on Christmas Day when their plane crashed into the Black Sea when it took off from Sochi, en route to Syria. I'm not sure if those were the same guys in this video.

There's a 9-year echo in here.

I knew they had been discussed here and that sc commented in the thread.
