Pooty Poot says -— “Let the scapegoating begin” -— The last thing Tsar craptastic will do, is to take any blame for his stupid invasion.
Screw Putin if he can’t take a joke.
Off to the Gulag you go for a tenner of had labor
Who doesn't?
Well, to steal an oft used FR expression, ‘so it begins’. LOL.
The new narrative will be that it wasn’t Putins fault. He wasn’t given good information. But no worries, Putin will set things right. He’s done so well up to now.
I wonder if or what charges this general is facing. Is there anything equivalent in America, but with due process? Could it have been used over “weapons of mass destruction in Iraq” lie?
Afghanis were meant to welcome Uncle Sam with open arms too
They only told Putin what he demanded to hear.
Leaked the plans? He had a hundred thousand soldiers with tanks and planes and helicopters parked around the edges of Ukraine for months. Did he think it was going to be a sneak attack?
It is hard to believe that his top adviser would claim that RUSSIAN troops would be welcomed by Ukrainians. Has that ever happened in world history?
Beseda ... had been on a trip to Ukraine shortly before he was detained. They ‘told him Ukrainians would welcome invasion’
—
Probably stopped in Donbas and talked to the local Russian Separatists who told him they would welcome invasion.
But, because the vodka and caviar, to say nothing of the drugs and women, were flowing so freely, in the morning he thought they had said ‘Ukrainians’ ....
You know up until the invasion, I thought Putin was smarter than that. He had to know he couldn’t get away with things in Ukraine, he could have gotten away with in Georgia or Chechnya.
Consider the source...
Daily Mail is as bad as Russia Today or CCTV English right now (pro Russia), and worse than CNN on this.
Just like Hitler. He didn’t listen to the general staff who told him he’d get 3.5 years out of the Eastern front before defeat.
Wonder what happened to the Russian general who told Putin not to invade Ukraine. Has he returned from the gulag yet?
You just can’t fix tyranny.
Nothing new under the sun.
Russians, Czars, dictators etc purge people all the time in their country (area). Take for example the last 200 years.
Holodomor and pogroms anyone?
Nothing new.

Do we have any confirmation of this or is the UK Daily Mail making up news again.
