Dam Putinistas!
Well, I guess you and the rest of your cult can hang in their in the firm hope that Putin rides to the rescue of Russian chauvinism, coercive conservatism, and Putin’s cronies.
You have a fear of Putin that’s not healthy. They have shrinks for that you know.
Dam Putinistas!
“in the firm hope that Putin rides to the rescue of Russian chauvinism,”
I’d tell you to pay attention, again, but it’s clear you don’t intend to. I’d tell you to try thinking, as well, but you have made it glaringly obvious, on many occasions, that you don’t do that, either.
If you had been paying attention, you would already realize that while Putin is supporting the pro-Russian rebels, he IS NOT giving them an overwhelming advantage, but parity.
If he wanted to, he could have already provided the rebels with the kind of stuff, and in the quantities, to have already ended this in a week, with the fall of Kiev.
This has become a Proxy War, with counter-move for counter-move, between the West/Obama and Russia. With Russia no longer providing many billions a year in subsidies to keep Ukraine afloat, they can easily afford what they are doing now.
Putin likely knows what many observers have noticed, as well, that this can’t go on forever.
Things are getting WORSE, not better for the average Ukrainian, as promised by the Maidan. When it gets cold, as it will very soon, the unrest we are already seeing is only going to grow.
(Kiev already announced today the cutoff of some hot-water supplies, to save NatGas.)
Kiev is broke, begging for more IMF Money, and is now confiscating saving and retirements to pay Kolomoisky for the fuel he is selling the UK Army, at above market prices.
IMO, things will come to a head, fast, sometime in the near future. Most likely right after the expected big attack on Donetsk fails.
