Putin's threat to the West has been laid bare in new footage showing a build-up of troops and military convoys on Ukraine's border as Kiev warns it could be provoked by Russian 'aggression'.

The clip, with the caption 'ready for conflict', appeared to show Vladimir Putin's armoured vehicles ploughing through the mud to manoeuvre into position.

The latest images to leak of the vast military build-up are evidently shot by Russian troops involved in the controversial deployment which has sparked deep worry in the West.

Some show a train convoy of military vehicles moving through Baltaysk in Russia's Rostov region within striking distance of the international border.

Others are said to be in Rostov-on-Don and Voronezh regions - all areas where a massing of Russian military might including tanks and missiles such as the notorious BUK has been seen in recent days.

Ukraine estimates there are now a staggering 85,000 Russian troops between six and 25 miles from its frontier and in Crimea.

If diversity really is strength, then the Austro-Hungarian Empire would have won that war.

VLAD’S not sleeping on his feet...even IF Joe is!

If our enemies don’t challenge us NOW, they never will.

We’re being manipulated by China in its covert war against Russia.

... Kiev warns it could be provoked by Russian 'aggression'.

Then Man Up Ukes, call up Biden and demand your money's worth.

The sad part is.. they’d probably kick our asses, as would the Chinese.

How many Ukrainians are willing to die for their country? Guess we’ll find out. After what Stalin did there’s gotta be a element payback ut the best they can do is make it expensive.

How many mobile Russian atomic mortars does it take to checkmate the US, etc. and make the Ukrainians think twice?

Joe has already encouraged Putin. By dropping our domestic oil production, the price of oil has sky rocketed dumping billions of dollars into Putins pockets. Now he has the revenue finally to go into the Ukraine. It’s almost by design. Seems Trump kept Russia at bay and broke. Guess we know who the repack Putin Cock holster is now.....

Meanwhile Marxists are rioting in our streets creating hate and racism where none existed. Another part of Putin’s plan? Has he been working with the Democrats all along? What the hell is going on here?????

Anyone???

Weakness begets aggression

The Kievan Rus want their land back

And they plan to kick out the Germans

Again

No. The sad part is it is possible that Germany et al would allow Putin to occupy Ukraine and all the EU would do would be to “impose sanctions”,

and they would do nothing else

UNLESS United States lives were put at risk.

And, we know who Biden will blame after he too does nothing. Trump.

The Ukies aren’t NATO. If Putin goes for them, that’s their problem. If Putin goes for the Baltics...that’s our problem. They’re NATO. If NATO dissolves then the Euroweenies have problems. Will be interesting to see how Barky and Soros respond.

Putin isn’t a threat to the West, Demented Joe and his generals are.

In the meantime, the chicoms will salt enough through our southern boarder and move against the US from within...they already are, BLM and ANTIFA, etc.

Pig Face Bidet will cave and surrender the USA to them. We all note that Pig Face Bidet and his cabal do nothing to stop the rioting by the BLM and ANTIFA.

Putin wants revenge for the shellacking we gave to his troops (actually mercenaries) in that one battle.

The Euros are an ongoing disaster for the rest of the world - the Founders warned us to steer clear of them.

A dozen cultures with different languages who hate each others guts and can’t seem to balance their books without invading and plundering other countries.

They outnumber the Russians and could defeat them but they’re a fukup sandwich and always will be.

Euros and their stinking Europhile partners in America are going to set the world on fire again, and keep setting the world afire every century.

Count on it

“We sure do live in interesting times.”

Oddly enough that phrase is in reality a curse.

“Ukraine estimates there are now a staggering 85,000 Russian troops between six and 25 miles from its frontier and in Crimea.”

In the real world that means there are 30,000....easy.

Or maybe lol
