dobri brat Aleksey.
I believe I already told you a little bit about Zhuravlev.
Most people in my circle, know him from when he claimed that in Denmark there are zoophilic brothels where one can pay for the services of a turtle. Rather, no... he said you can pay to "rape" a turtle. This novel idea of sexually brutalizing turtles captured the imagination of many compatriots immediately.
He also created a movement, in the 1990s, intended to stimulate the rebirth of the ancient Russian tradition of bare knuckle fights between large groups of people (wall on wall). In the event, most of the people enrolled in his clubs, ended up being used as free labor at constructions sites and various other non-fighting related places. Some of them, disappointed, filed lawsuits against him and the other organizers.
I don't know where he belongs now, but for years he was a member of LDPR - the party of Zhirinovsky. For those who don't know who Zhirinovksy is, he is a man that once claimed to Putin during a meeting at the Kremlin, that unless a man is gay or is made to spent some extended period of time in prison - he will NOT create good art or literature.
Finally, for a turbopatriot like Zhuravlev, he has a very strange daughter. Nadezhda Lachtenberger is a citizen of Austria, though she lives now full time in London after having graduated from the University of Westminster. I suppose he will page her shortly before a nuke drops on her head.
It is why one has to be extremely careful around turbopatriots... whether Russian, Ukrainian, or Polish.
P.S. - since this aromatic gnome sits on the Duma Committee for Defense, I would have preferred he focus on things like providing good winter clothing to the men at the front, instead of talking about dropping nukes on London every night on TV, in programs like "60 Minutes".
