Big bad Russia, “it’s everybody else's fault!” if you pull out a gun and pull the trigger you are responsible. Good job on your new war of choice. Putin is going mad and you’ll defend and follow him the entire descent to perdition. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There a few posters on this site who only post pro russian BS.....I think they are paid by Putin...they are just obeying orders and trying to earn a few Rubles. No one in their right mind would be defending Putin today unless they are on the take. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You don't expect a permanent color revolution against any puppet? It feels like Russia would need to go all Grozny or Aleppo against Kiev.

Why are you fighting and killing fellow slavs? Why does Putin say he had no choice or it was the end of Russia? He has gone totally crazy! Are the Russian people going to back a crazy man or get rid off him before its too late? 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Putin has abandoned any pretense of rationality or desiring to attract support, he is playing it all alone. Usually dictators who do that end up in the trash can themselves. Stalin was getting out of control when he was disposed of in 1953. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
