Vladimir Putin has mysteriously disappeared from public view as his regime issued apocalyptic World War Three nuclear threats over the use of long-range Western missiles by Ukraine against Russian territory.
It is unclear if during the past 12 days of high international tension the Kremlin dictator has been holed up in a hi-tech bunker, unwell, underwent another round of plastic surgery, took a secret holiday or simply chose to remain out of sight. Yet Putin, 72, has not been definitively seen since an appearance at the Valdai Forum in Sochi on November 7 when he congratulated a "courageous" Donald Trump on his election victory and hinted he was ready for talks to end the war in Ukraine, according to the Faridaily Telegram channel, which monitors his movements and appearances.
"Where Putin is in these anxious days, when the war with Ukraine is entering a new round of escalation, and what he is doing, apparently only his security and a small circle of close associates know," said the channel. Putin was noticeably absent from view on Tuesday when the Kremlin announced he had signed off a new version of Russia's nuclear doctrine, a revelation which came soon after his spokesman indicated the amended text was not ready.

All of us with actual experience and in the know past the media know Russia has shown great restraint. What alarms us is that people don’t realize that and think they can just keep pushing. I guess most won’t be happy until the see the warheads coming, or if they’re lucky they’ll only have to send their kids to their deaths. The war cry can be “for the glory of the NWO!” you’re all being played by your own and either too daft to see or don’t want to because you can’t admit you were lied to and it would ruin your worldview and the entire history as you were programmed to believe. Another robot.
You’re beyond self parody. You’re the one obsessed with sexuality. Just ask your daughter whether I’m a homo. You, on the other hand, are in denial and projecting.
Do you not realize that as we both sit here with search engines at the ready that quizzing someone about geography is about the stupidest thing you can do.
Speaking of false claims still waiting to hear where you were on “front lines”.
Putin said he could take the capitol in 2 weeks.
Great restraint? Hahahahaha! Except for nukes, Russia has thrown everything they have into the war on Ukraine. If it doesn’t stop now it won’t be stopped ever.
No American service people will ever be deployed to Ukraine.
What “lies” exactly am I supposed to be believing.
Here is video of some of Russia’s commentators telling the people the invasion would be over in days.

Notice the moving goalposts.
First it was the fact that the war has been going on for a long time.
Second it was “no one” predicted a quick victory. When proven wrong on that he moves the goal posts.
Then it became Putin didn’t predict a quick victory.
Now you’ve disproven that.
Can’t wait to hear the next false claim.
I can already tell you’re not a stacked deck.
No point in engaging. Are there two brain cells bouncing around in your skull like a pong game, or just one?
Don’t worry about answering.
Personally I assumed it would be over quickly, that
Russia would succeed in taking the capitol which would be the fall of the country and then would require some Russian mopping up of renegade resistance.
Even after that didn’t work for what we thought was the second best army in the world, it was still a surprise this past year or so when even the Russia backers started thinking that Russia couldn’t take Odessa and that it would remain Ukrainian.
I think almost all of us assumed that Odessa would have been taken fairly quickly.
Maybe he just took a vacay to be with his family. 🙄
Great!
Now tell me - who are these people?
Are the simply Russian versions of Ansel12 or Canuck Conservative spouting nonsense on social media?
What Kursk decapitation strike doink? Lol!
You don’t even know who they are nor do you read my posts, your response didn’t make any sense at all about anything.
Here is Putin being OK with Ukraine joining NATO since they are their own sovereign country.

You send me some unknown people on social media and claim “you see, here’s some Russians claiming they will take Kiev in 3 days”
What are you trying to prove?
mysteriously
Mysteriously!
MYSTERIOUSLY!
LOL, those are not “some unknown people on social media”.
OK - who exactly is that woman and the fat bald guy, and how are they involved with the Russian invasion of Ukraine?
Since you are providing it as ‘evidence” of some nonsense point about Russia claiming it will take Kiev in three days, they must be very important people, no?
I’m fine with you not having any idea who those people are or what role they play in Russian news.
LOL — because you’ve been called out on your BS.
What time do they give you lunch hour there?
Weird reaction to post 85 but it is consistent for you, nonsensical, but always the same.
