Is Vladimir Putin Another Adolf Hitler?
Forbes ^ | 04/16/2014 | Paul Johnson

Posted on 04/17/2014 3:50:14 AM PDT by Siegfried X

As Mein Kampf makes clear, Hitler sought to unite all the people of German speech and culture into one state, or Reich, preferably by peaceful negotiation, otherwise by war and conquest...

Today’s drift toward war with Russia seems like a replay of the past. Putin is a Russian nationalist, who believes in a strong Stalinist state. His goal is to reverse the events of 1989–the end of the Soviet state and dissolution of its enormous empire...

...to wield against the various weak states that were part of the U.S.S.R... All have ethnic Russian minorities, who speak the language, boast of their superior Russian culture and claim to have been relegated to second-class citizenship. Putin can rely on these minorities to agitate for Russian intervention whenever he wants–most importantly in the Baltic states of Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania. His successful annexation of Crimea is greatly encouraging to his long-term plans, and it’s clear he’ll use everything in his power, including military force, to reconstruct his empire.

Oh he has potential to be sure. But the hysteria over this makes a lot of people look like total idiots. There are 3 or 4 in particular that need thorazine. And boy do there seem to be a lot of them on the Putin threads.

I think it’s projection. They secretly desire Vlad to conquer them.

“...They secretly desire Vlad to conquer them....”

You never know with obsessed people. And they are certainly obsessed with Vlad.

Lotsa projection. They claim we are all ‘Putinistas’ and strangely they can’t seem to stop talking about the guy. 14 year old girls also behave that way.

“...14 year old girls also behave that way...”

Yeah, like all those old teeny-bopper magazines...

Maybe they’ll come out with an issue of “Putineey Beat!” or “Cosmoputin” or something... with articles like “Seven Sex Secrets To Get Vlad To Love You In Bed”... or “What Vlad REALLY Means When He Says “I Must Break You!”

I dunno...

Not good.

Cultural rot is complete when you sexualize children.

Dear Penthouse,

I never thought I’d write to a magazine before but last night I dreamed of a shirtles Adonis of a man riding a bear. And when I woke up, there was bear poop on my floor! I feel so....used...

In my dream Vlad broke into my room astride his grizzly and told me he was mad at me for mocking him on the inter..and I trembled at the smell of the swear forming on his manly and rugged brow...

I can picture it though. They do have a near fetishization of the guy.

One of the comments on the Forbes page:

Pavlos 1 day ago
Dear Mr. Johnson,
we have a saying in Cyprus: “He who is not ashamed, the world is his”. It is often used on occasions when someone shamelessly perverts the truth. Putin is Hitler and Russia is Nazi Germany? How many millions has the West killed since the end of the Cold War attacking Iraq, Yugoslavia, Afghanistan, Libya, and inciting chaos in Syria?

Why did the West aggressively choose NATO enlargement and, in fact, Russian encirclement, when Russia totally abandoned the repressive communist ideology and was moving towards democratization?

I will tell you why. Because Russia is Christian Orthodox, and the West hates Christian Orthodoxy because it is the true faith which brings shame to heretics. Aristotle said: “Give a man power and you will see the contents of his character.” We have seen the contents of Western civilization when it was given nearly absolute power after the collapse of the USSR: war, death, chaos, at a time when humanity was aspiring to a new beginning of global peace and prosperity.

Now you are hypocritically complaining about Russian aggression. No Mr. Johnson. This is not aggression but defence against NATO and Western fascism which is trying to destroy the power of Orthodox Russia.

The West crossed the line in Ukraine by toppling Yanukovich. Russia correctly intervened to protect her interests and also the interests of all civilised people who are against the murderous (on a massive scale) Western global hegemony.


Matt Drudge is referring to Putin as the leader of the free world

Pat Buchanan believes (as I do) that God is on Putin's side:

http://answersforthefaith.com/2013/08/08/putin-world-leaders-should-unite-to-end-christian-persecution/

The United States is still demographically a Christian nation but you'd never know it from observing our government. All you ever read about our government doing these days is supporting regimes which persecute Christians and Christianity, and then you ask whose side you think God might be on? You think God could ever be on the side of George Soros, Monsanto, and the Obunga state department?? For that matter do you think God would be on the side of "conservatives" who weren't bright enough to see through demoKKKrat/NWO/Soros/US_StateDept propaganda and BS??

All of that is aside from the fact that Putin almost singlehandedly stopped the idiot greentards and Malthusians from shutting down all of the world's economies in 04 with the Russian hacker attack on the East Anglia CU email database which gave rise to "Climategate" (www.climategate.com). Other than for that, all of the idiots comparing Putin with Hitler would likely be rubbing sticks together to make fire.

Today on Jerry Springer...

“Men unable to express man crushes on men who ride bears...And more...”

...i dunno Jerry. He is just everything I’m not. Bold, confident unafraid of liberal pansies from other countries...I hate that I hate that I HATE THAT!!!... I hate ME Jerry. I know I can never be him. And that’s when my 9 year old told me ‘Dad, just make fun of him with your girlfriends like we do...he’ll kiss you eventually’.

“Is she right Jerry? I’m so insecure...”
