Full out invasion of Russia... Why waste time, or the obvious opportunity. The end of Russia’s current regime is nigh and an all out invasion would likely hasten Vlad’s departure, one way or the other.

Zelensky got $18 billion? I thought he received hundreds of billions. He’s being robbed and awfully underpaid, for someone who’s fighting the Russian bear alone.

Movie next year. Putin vs the Zelensky Goliath. Promises to be better than Godzilla vs Kong. Zelensky will star as himself with no pay, since he’s already gotten hundreds of billions.

No, it will get us killed. Russia will use nukes if they try this.

Think please.

That blowhard Putin has been threatening nukes since day one... And frankly, he doesn’t even likely have the power to launce them, and those who do have that power wouldn’t dare.

There is an entire infrastructure of authority involved with either side launching nukes... And Putin may ask, and may have even already requested the use of nukes... Only to have been turned down. It’s not as simple as just pushing a button, or at least, lets hope not.

Zelenski’s willing to see his entire population die for his obsession.....and ay other countries men as well. Despicable creep demands and then demands again and again for more of more!

Now, he’s pleading for additional funds and resorting to threats if they’re not provided. This situation is utterly absurd.

We have nukes. Would we “dare” to use them if invaded by a large enough (and determined) foe?

I have a big problem with advisors who think that the Russians wouldn’t use them under the threat of utter defeat and occupation by foreign powers.

Putin has only been threatening to use nukes if NATO invades Russia. He was quite clear that that is what he considers an existential threat to Russia. People that know and deal with Putin all say that when he makes a statement like that he means it.

Russia hasn’t been spending the past years, as they have watched the spread of NATO, sitting around catering to homos and the nonsense the west has been doing. They have been developing weapons, have the means in place to make them, and making sure their weaponry is in working order.

I cannot say the same for NATO countries.

Putin is a moderate in Russia. He keeps the hardliners at bay.

Do not think he is bluffing.

The message is pretty clear... As long as they dump Putin, they won’t need to worry about being invaded or occupied...

So the answer is simple... A coup will suffice. We don’t care if it’s a bloody one or not, just as long as the name at the top isn’t Putin.

If I were Putin, I’d be looking for some kind of deal where I’d get exile and a chance to live what’s left of my life, but given his behavior an alternative scenario is a more likely. A sudden but quick end from falling out of a window, or stumbling down some stairs will be the likely cover story.

Go back to that little two person website you spend your time bitching about people here on FR. The lonely corridors await you.

You need that place because you are considered a troll here.

“Full out invasion of Russia... Why waste time, or the obvious opportunity.”

I volunteer YOU to go fight. You’ll cheerfully send other people’s kids, but you won’t put your own fundament on the line.

“Putin’s bluffing.”

We all know who you are. You’re the warmongering kook who told us that Russia’s nukes were so cruddy and rundown from lack of maintenance that they wouldn’t work and were consequently no threat to us.

He is poorer than Putin. So is every Russian.

“The end of Russia’s current regime is nigh and an all out invasion would likely hasten Vlad’s departure, one way or the other.”

Utterly foolish in two ways. All out invade Russia with WHAT? The original nazis utterly eclipsed the Uke clown show. And early September? Great time to invade Russia, LOL!

And lets say your moronic plan worked and Putin was gone. You actually think he would be followed by some WEF, Ivy League, western banker, DC/London approved clone? Most people in Russia wish Putin would stop holding back.
You’d get a hard liner that would make you wish for the good old days of Vlad the reasonable.
