Vladimir Putin has been 'neutralised' by a stealthy coup as rumours about his health and well-being
The Daily Mail ^ | 3/15/2015 | Will Stewart

Vladimir Putin is 'alive' but 'neutralised' as shadowy security chiefs stage a stealthy coup in Moscow, it was claimed last night.

Former FSB chief Nikolai Patrushev was behind the plot, claimed chairman of the pro-Kremlin national Islamic Committee, Geydar Dzhemal.

Snip...

'I think that Putin is neutralised at the moment, but of course, he is alive,' said Dzhemal, seen as a Kremlin loyalist. 'He is under the control of the power-wielding agencies, who have, in my opinion, organised a coup d'etat.'

snip..

'My information is that Patrushev met Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov in Pyatigorsk on 11 March and tempted him over to his side.'

With feverish speculation in Moscow over Putin's health and whereabouts, and claims of a bitter power struggle in his entourage which could even trigger an attempted coup, the head of Chechnya spoke emotionally of people 'trying to harm the president of Russia - and Russia itself'. And he claimed that forces were scheming 'to break us apart', referring to him and his guarantor Putin.

snip...

The voices of prime minister Dmitry Medvedev, Defence Minister Sergei Shoigu, Chief of the Kremlin staff Sergei Ivanov - and Putin's intelligence tsars - have remained silent. Kadyrov has enjoyed extraordinary power and largesse under Putin as a reward for keeping an iron grip on the rebellious oil-rich Chechen region, scene of two bloody wars since the collapse of the USSR. As a result he is hated by many senior Putin loyalists. But Kadyrov's enemies claimed yesterday that the 38 year old bearded regional potentate is in 'panic' because he can no longer contact his mentor. 'He is phoning anyone he can in an attempt to arrange a talk with Putin - but he fails,' alleged a website linked to Islamic hardliners seeking to overthrow Kadyrov.

They’re saying he’s in perfect health.

Well if he misses his meeting tomorrow, we’ll know its a lie.

Putin has always had to walk a tightrope in appeasing the various political factions in Russia, he is probably right in the center of those factions. There are very extreme hardliners in Russia and they tolerated Putin as long as he threw them enough bones. Perhaps those bones have run out.

Not sure what to make of it as it is the Daily Mail, but thought it was still worth posting; but if the Pro-Moscow Muzzies are even declaring that stuff is falling apart around them, then it seems likely that Putin being missing isn’t just an idle concern.

I had it up here, too. Got it at Christmas time and though I took no time off, until mid-February, it was all I could do to get up, go to work, eat and go to bed when I got home, sleeping 12 hours a day. I still notice the odd stuffed up nose and phlegmy cough, even yet. It is a vile cold/flu. I just thank God that we had a very mild February and March, whiched helped immensely.

And those who are praying for Putin's demise think some kinder gentler ruler is going to take his place.

No doubt you and the other Putinistas will mourn his passing, but praise the new dictator, either way.

Should Putin be out of the picture there’s no telling who will “end up” leading Russia.....Kordokovsky is just one of many standing on the sidelines for when they want “in”. But he’ll wait til the fighting is over before he would seat himself...he’s one of our favorites.

....”Yep, be careful what you ask for”...

Hasn’t worked out too well anytime Obama’s tried to create a regime change....never for the people that’s for sure! But then the global elites are after resources and trade land grabs far more than concern for the people..they are simply the “grunts” to run that machine.

If that is the case, I wish we could do the same when BamBam leaves the country.

If he died, Russian state TV and radio would be playing funereal music.

No, they'd be playing videos of ballerinas until the media guys receive orders from the FSB on what to say.
