Things are better than the public knows. Putin faces the tough decision of abandoning his moron supporters in Ukraine or charging ahead with the unfortunate draftee slobs required to enforce Putinism. Putinistas on FReeRepublic, no doubt, will find a sophistry to help them explain, as his unpaid apologist, why their genius, self-described conservative champion, who is willing to lie, cheat and steal to enforce a unique type off conservative values on to dissidents, is a mere opportunistic former KGB Colonel turned punk.
“Putin faces the tough decision of abandoning his moron supporters in Ukraine”
You have been claiming stuff like that, for months, and it still hasn’t come to pass.
Porkyshenko said he would end this uprising in a matter of days not weeks. And that was a couple of months ago.
Time will only tell.
Some unsettling developments:
- few reports of Russian suicide bombers.
- while above remains unconfirmed, this one is more certain - there are underage soldiers among the Russians. Like these 15-17 year old kids
