— I really wish I'd listened to what my mother told me when I was young.

— Why, what did she tell you?

— I don't know, I didn't listen.

PMCs are illegal in Russia. There are a few anyway (at least one that I know of), but they are all closely affiliated to Putin's entourage and do mostly shady stuff (e.g. in Ukraine, Central Africa, etc.). I'm not sure it's lucrative from the grunt's POV, and if some shit happens, you can count on being left there on your own.

As far as I understand (correct me if I'm wrong), Hamas's stated goal is the destruction of Israel and killing of all jews. Do you really think they are ever going to agree to a compromise?
