I don’t disagree with you that Putin is a KGB thug and dictator.

I think we are using the word “strong” differently.

“Macho” might be a better word, but you’ve hit the end of my English abilities as a non-native speaker.

“hat are the 5 biggest differences between Nazis and Commies?”

1. Snappy uniforms vs. lots of medals and ribbons

2. Nazis pretend to leave private industry intact, while Commies don’t pretend

3. Nazis were unapologetic about their antisemitism, while the Communists pretended to not be antisemitic but did it in secret for a while until they couldn’t hide the gulags

4. The Commies were also much better at accessing colleges and media, while the Nazis tended toward oligarchs in industry.

5. Different press agents in the USA, with the Commies having much better agents.

Thanks. For some reason, Putinistas are afraid of that question.

Way too much Facebook, video, and twitter now available in Russia. Eventually....someone will get a video out there and challenge the perceived story, and in a period of a month...the whole Kremlin story is washed aside.

Is it true that you’re a priest?

Yes, and I'm a king too! See here:

"And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood, And hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen. (Rev 1:5-6)

You wouldn't know anything about this, since, being a shameless liar and propagandist for Putin, you serve the devil and not the God who makes priests and kings out of sinners.

“Macho” might be a better word, but you’ve hit the end of my English abilities as a non-native speaker.

As a Spaniard familiar with the word "Macho," there is Macho and then there is just plain freakin crazy. For example:

"Vladimir Putin's international image was tainted today after it emerged he had let slip another of his infamous remarks - this time praising the president of Israel for alleged sex offences.

"He turned out to be a strong man, raped 10 women," the Russian president was quoted by Russian media as saying at a meeting in Moscow with Israeli prime minister Ehud Olmert. "I never would have expected it of him. He has surprised us all, we all envy him!"

http://www.theguardian.com/world/2006/oct/20/russia.tomparfitt

Putin didn't know the mic was still on.

I can still be talked out of things, provided it is done rationally. Go crawl back into your vodka bottle, you filthy Putinista.

Russia, as the aggressor, still dictates its own terms: captures territory, killing, destroying and dictating its own conditions.
For Rissia, this is just a way in an organized manner to take out the loot from Ukraine. “DNI” and the “LNR” robbing the Donbass and simultaneously seek to “get” him from the Ukraine, without thinking, someone who will restore the region.

What a weirdo.

Putin can’t even get the facts of the horrid events straight. The Iranian-born Katsav was convicted of raping one woman (although he was serial philanderer).

He was sentenced to 7 years in prison by Israel.

Compared to how the USA treated rapist Clinton, I’d say Israel shines in comparison.
