Sean Penn proposed melting down Oscars for bullets 'to shoot at Russians'
2023-09-15
Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.
Mr. Penn is just full of bright ideas.
[Regnum] American actor Sean Penn announced his desire to transfer Oscar figurines to Ukraine so that the Armed Forces of Ukraine would melt them into bullets. He spoke about this on September 14 in an interview with Variety magazine.
Slugs for the 5.45mm, standard issue for the Russian and Ukrainian militaries, are made with steel, both the slug and the cartridge casing.
"I thought, 'Well, to hell with them, you know?' I will give them to Ukraine. You can melt them down into bullets to shoot at the Russians,” he said.
Russians must be laughing their asses off at Penn.
Everybody laughs at Mr. Penn. Fortunately, actors are paid to pretend to be imaginary people, not to think, so he’ll be fine.
Penn also called Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky his friend and said that his brain is “completely filled with oxygen” and his “eyes are clear.”
Translation: the man is a flammable airhead. Or possibly an inflammable airhead, which means the exact same thing because English is a complicated language. Way ta go, Seannie!
As reported by IA Regnum , the actor previously presented a documentary film “Superpower” about tensions in relations between Ukraine and Russia. The film uses videos with Zelensky’s statements.

During a visit to Ukraine, Penn said he wanted to pick up a rifle and go into battle, probably without body armor. He explained the long duration of his trip with this desire.

He also called for the deployment of US troops to Ukraine now. If this is not done, then Russia may win the conflict, and then the West will be “covered,” the actor believes. He expressed himself emotionally, including using obscene words. Penn expressed confidence that if Russia wins, “all of us are finished.”

Penn stormin' the Crimea from his frog boat like a 20 cent Commando. -Commando, Too- starring Jessie Ventura as the antagonist. Maybe as a lead draw more tickets than the million bought critics.

If he didn't survive, well...
If he did survive, they'd have to deal with him.
I'm not seeing a down side here...

#2  The Ukrainian Foreign Ministry on Thursday denounced the decision of the Berlin State Opera to bring back Anna Netrebko, the world-famous Russian soprano previously “canceled” for refusing to denounce her country.

The voice of Ukraine in Germany should be heard louder than the soprano Anna Netrebko,”


I don't thing Ukrainians got this business of being civilized West Europeans down pat.
