It Looks Like Those who speculated about Putin’s health may have been correct
American Thinker ^ | 05/02/2022 | Andrea Widburg

Even before the Ukraine war began, people were speculating that something was physically wrong with Putin. He looked puffy, not as if he’d gained weight, but as if he were reacting to medicines. Speculation escalated with recent videos showing him clutching a table and with a badly shaking hand. Now, The Sun, a British tabloid, is claiming that Putin is going under the knife for a cancer operation, as well as suffering from Parkinson’s.

As early as January 3, Britain’s Telegraph paper was suggesting that Putin is seriously ill. The five pieces of evidence it reported were his puffy face; the excessive distance Putin kept from people, as evidenced by the long table between him and France’s Macron, a possible sign of a weakened immune system; intelligence reports such as one that Marco Rubio alluded to, saying something was off about Putin; a Russian academic’s claims that Putin has both cancer and Parkinson’s; and Putin’s sudden desire to force a conclusion over his claims about Ukraine, a possible sign that he wants the matter resolved before imminent retirement or death.

In March, Mundo Hispanico reported that Putin’s puffy face indicated poor health. The article noted that Putin’s face was noticeably puffy and reported on rumors that the puffiness was from steroids he was taking to treat cancer. Part of his warlike behavior, some speculated, could be ‘roid rage.

All the rumors escalated about ten days ago when Putin was interviewed and spent the entire interview clutching the table with his right hand, while he seemed to prop himself up in his chair. (Postural instability is one of the signs of Parkinson’s.):

Be careful what you wish for.....
....the replacement could be worse

For that matter..........Putin, other world leaders ....and many in our own country ....need a Jesus filled transformation!!!!!!!!

There are plenty of Putin types who do not put the needs of America first......who are actively destroying her.

I pray Putin, and other leaders meets Jesus.....before it’s too late

When cancer strikes you can actually look very healthy, it is the treatments and surgery that make you look like deaths door!!

“rumors are just early facts”

In the near future you’ll have to check with Nina Jankowicz on that.

I feel very sorry for Putin. He has committed vile acts and has caused suffering of millions. The sorrow I feel comes from realizing tyhat he does not have much time to set things right now, and if he meets his jus=dgement without even repenting, let alone taking on the suffering he himslef has caused, then he will be an object of inhuman suffering for a millenia or more, perhaps forever.

Putin is really not in a very good place in terms of a human soon to face the Divine. He is one poor bugger.

Soviet leaders always caught a cold shortly before their demise.

Cancer surgery?

What’s the over/under pool on this one?

People in power approaching their end can be really dangerous as they try to burnish their “legacy”. This applies to the pope as well.

Depends, if it is removal surgery, are they going by way of the aorta? Hum, looks like we hit a gusher.

Look at his shoulders, when they ride up like that it’s
a sign of insecurity and often of pain.

Also look how skinny his legs are, he’s losing muscle mass.
