Meaning a western stooge on a payroll))).. C’mon denis))).
Delusional, fake, Tsar Putin dodges all responsibility for his vainglorious war on Ukraine.
Sending young Russian men to their deaths? Not his problem, and he doesn’t care anyways. So much for “The Great Russian People”..... Warmonger Putin cannot croak too soon.
Gin up a more clever comment.
It’s because there are a million Russian Spetnatz troops slowly crawling up to the front lines. They will remain quiet until the whistle blows and they will all stand up at once, and then March through Ukraine to the Polish border. Then Ukraine will become the newest province of Russia.
Then there will be no NATO troops on Russia’s borders.
Oh. Wait. Never mind.
(Sarcasm)
and now he wants another conscription after New Years
that means this could be the last Christmas for a lot of young Russian men, before the Tsar sends them to their deaths
and for what?
Yes, because his replacement will ride a Skittle pooping unicorn.
The next might very well be worse.
I'm sure that the monthly checks from the CIA and MI-6 make a comfortable living for Dmitry...
the next could be better, too
....Baskets of deplorables, MAGA followers, Trumpists, insurrectionists, white supremacists, rednecks, GOP voters.
My opinion is the fake Tsar spends most of his time in his lavish Sochi compound, brooding and getting Dr Feelgood ejections and treatments to (hopefully) ward off the inevitable. Which Grim Reaper will be sweeping Vlad up within 6 months.
“Western stooge”?
You sound like a Soviet apparatchik or Chicom.
Oh… so like we have in the US now with Joe Biden.
The Interweb is full of independent political analysts pontificating.
That's the argument that never made sense from the moment it was first made. If the land they're taking truly is part of Russia, then they're actually bringing the borders of NATO even closer to Russia by annexing that land.
“Yes, because his replacement will ride a Skittle pooping unicorn.....The next might very well be worse.___________”
Vlad’s replacement can be a hardliner or moderate. They will all wash their hands of Vlad’s dumbass war. Remember — The business of Russia is business. This war does nothing positive for Russia, the oligarchs and the Kremlin honchos
The business of Russia is selling hydrocarbons to all of Europe. Diseased, cancerous, Vlad ruined this best deal ever. No one in Russia needs him or likes him. So Vlad is gone by March, one way or another.
The only people who like Vlad are some nuts here at Free Republic. He is their anti-gay, anti-globohomo spirit animal. Their comforting teddy bear
View all things through the prism of civilization’s lifeblood — oil.
The Caspian oil source in total is fully 1/2 of Russia’s daily production. It transports north along the Volga river, and on it in barges, but mostly high tech pipelines alongside. There is a river choke point. It is the city of Volgograd.
It is less than 100 miles from the eastern border of the Donbas.
There was never any way NATO could be allowed that close to the flow that will eventually define Russia as dominant. They have more surface area. Their flow will run out last.
View all things through the prism of oil.
If Soros were winning, the propaganda would not be necessary.
“If the land they’re taking truly is part of Russia, then they’re actually bringing the borders of NATO even closer to Russia by annexing that land.”
Stop making sense.
