Regarding the rebel regions in Ukraine and conflict where Russian rebels are carrying out armed independence for want of a better phrase. Nothing happens without Putin ordering it to happen. It is Putin's hand in Ukraine and the rebels have been supplied with arms and rockets and troops etc direct from Russia under Putin's orders.

The Dutch civilian air liner was shot down by a Russian supplied rocket.

There is zero justification for the invasion this past week by Russian military of Ukraine.

Putin believes he is a Tsar. A Tsar with a KGB mind set. Other's see him as a gangster who has surrounded himself with other criminals to steal Russia's wealth.

His show of force against the west and Ukraine is based on lies made to the Russian people.

The old Soviet USSR was the same. Based on lies and based on theft of assets as well as mass murder by Stalin and his kleptocrat's. None of the countries under the rule of the USSR did it voluntarily.

Putin has made a huge miscalculation by invading Ukraine. The expression on the two Russian generals faces as Putin made his televised statement today says it all.

The Chechen platoon or death squad that was sent in to Ukraine with cards depicting the faces of the Ukranian President and other prominent politicians to be murdered was because of a very old agreement that Putin made with the leader of Chechnya. It goes back to when Putin ordered the invasion of Chechnya and Russian soldiers flattened Grozny. The deal was that Putin would leave the Chechen leader in power but he was now Putin's puppet to do as Putin ordered.

Putin has become a huge liability to Russia and the Russian generals know that and many do not support him despite following orders to a degree. Russian troop's have been sent into Ukraine based on lies and some when encountering Ukranians have all ready decided to turn back.

Belarus President, another of Putin's puppet's is threatening to send paratrooper's into Ukraine.

Polish volunteers are entering Ukraine to fight the Russians.

All it takes is one Russian general to turn his troops back and there will be a domino effect which would lead to the military taking charge away from Putin. That is a reality that can happen very fast.

Putin's made up reason for invading Ukraine and the Russian soldiers being lied to as to why they invaded Ukraine has happened before. This is not the first time that Putin has stage a false flag attack.

Putin got away with it before. Will he get away with it again?

""""
One month after then-President Boris Yeltsin plucked a security agency official named Vladimir Putin from obscurity and made him prime minister, an explosion leveled a nine-story apartment building on Moscow’s outskirts.

The predawn blast on September 9, 1999, reduced the building to a smoking pile of rubble, killing more than 100. A second building, less than 6 kilometers away, was rocked by an explosion on September 13, killing 119.

Days earlier, a car bomb exploded in a small town bordering the war-ravaged region of Chechnya, where reignited fighting was already spilling into neighboring regions. That blast, outside the apartment building in the town of Buynaksk, killed dozens.

It was followed seven days later by a truck bomb that destroyed a nine-story building in another southern city, Volgodonsk, killing 17.

On September 23, Putin asserted terrorists in Chechnya were to blame and ordered a massive air campaign within the North Caucasus region. """"

  Either Putin will decide to send in the planes to bomb civilian areas in order to get the Ukranian government to surrender and try to blame the Ukranian government.

  Or he will be given a choice by the Russian generals. Leave Ukraine.

  

  

 The down side for Putin is that the Ukranian's will go after him wherever he hides.

 Legally, the Ukranian government has the authority to allow any country and organisation to fly in it's air space. That includes NATO and independent countries jet fighters.

I agree with the previous statement regarding an existing 'Tsar' complex.

I think a facet that is being missed is Putin's age. He has, in his mind, a picture of what he thinks Russia's future is or should be. He's probably started to feel his age setting in (slowing down, aches, etc.) and realized that, for him, it's pretty much now or never. At 80, he probably wouldn't be up to the task regarding physical energy levels, so if it was going to happen, he needed to make it happen.

Also, I don't see an 'heir apparent' in the background that he could feasibly expect to carry his torch when he is gone or out of the picture. What he hands to the next leader is going to be the extent of what Russia is for awhile.

For me the most worrying thing is, given a choice between wiping out the only ‘intelligent’ species in the universe or facing the possibility of being personally humiliated he would rather kill everyone on the planet.

Reports of some Russian soldiers in Ukraine putting down their weapons and refusing to fight after realising the truth.

As well as report's of Russian soldier's shooting and killing a Ukranian family that was in a car as well as killing Ukranian children.

Shows the mess that Putin has created.


The Belarus President threatening Ukraine with military force, to try to scare Ukraine into surrendering. Show's that Putin has to rely on a leader (dictator) of a country who is hated by the population. Another criminal who has tens of millions of dollars stolen from the people of Belarus in his offshore bank account's.

Putin and his threats to use nukes and put them on alert, against the west. Is the point that Russian people have to decide if they want to be ruled by a gangster who is responsible for the death's of women and children when he invaded a peaceful country. Who surrounded himself with criminals who have no sympathy for true Russians. Oligarch's who helped Putin steal Russia"s wealth and divided it up amongst themselves.

Russian people have to choose to be ruled by Putin, who if he succeed's in Ukraine,will tighten his grip around the necks of Russian people, where they will have far less freedom than they have today. Suffer economic hardship for year's. Including small and medium sized businesses that will end up going bankrupt.

Russian people have to decide today, not next month or next year. If they will be better off and have a better future by allowing Putin to continue or by getting rid of Putin.

Russians have to make the decision and act on it.

just saw on sky news some brits at the ukrainian embassy asking how to sign up to defend. Good on them but made me chuckle when on the intercom guy says i want to join your thing, the foreign legion. lol.

   No chance. They are disarmed.

 Have you noticed how far away from ministers and officials Putin makes them sit when meeting or reporting to him. 

  I'm sure Putin has bodyguards watching every official that he has a meeting with in his office. 

 Putin more than likely keep's a loaded gun in his drawer.

 Putin is probably at the stage where he does not know who to trust and which cup to drink tea from.

Are the sanctions by the west against Russia sufficient?

Putin's minsiter's are losing confidence in him.

Instead of being viewed as a strong leader, he is being seen as a liability who is detrimental to Russia.

His days are numbered.

His war crimes will not be forgotten by Ukranians who will hunt him down wherever he hides.

The west should be arresting and holding all of the Russian oligarch's wherever they are in the world. These are the people that really run Russia with Putin and enabled him to stay in power. Are the oligarch's Putins puppet's or is Putin the oligarch's puppet?

 I did not mean to confuse you. Anyway we all know the answer.

""" 3. Previously I had thought most 'dark money' moved through 'black hole' banks such as Lebanon, Israel, Navorro, etc. . . It turns out those are for the ametuers.

   The same reason that Boris Johnson has two agendas.

 One to support Ukranian people and two to keep the flow of Russian money into London coming in by whatever back door looks legitimate.

  After all, with the economic sanctions against Russia ignoring the fact that the US and Europe is still paying Putin's Russia 1 Billion $ a day for oil and gas.

 Now that the Ruble has plummeted against the dollar as well as other Russian asset's. Who are the people that will profit by buying up the Ruble and sitting on it. The parasitic Soros type billionaires? 

www.wsj.com/market-data/quotes/fx/RUBUSD

   Ukranians are being killed and the same type of fattened parasites will make money from this war.

Ukraine has 4 nuclear power stations.

A strike on one of those by a Russian missile, stray or guided will change the game completely.

That could also be the threat that Putin implied that he would strike nuclear power stations as opposed to actually launching nuclear missiles. The radio active fallout would contaminate Europe as well as Russia. Putin does not seem to care about this though.

The 4O km long Russian convoy is still standing still a few miles outside Kyiv. Waiting for order's to move in and take control of the city and parliament ? Or run out of fuel ?

The information about this convoy has been restricted as to the real reason. Let's hope that Russian generals have seen and are seeing sense and the Russian soldiers have access to information coming from Ukraine via Elon Musk's Star Link internet satellite system.

There again it would not be beyond reason for the Russian generals and politicians to be told, no matter the outcome of this war, we know who you are and we know who your families are and no matter where you are we will come for you all and make you pay for what you did to us.


Even fat boy Segal wouldn't be able to protect them.

This is indeed very interesting as NATO’s intervention in Kosovo is cited as a “historical error” Putin wants to somehow correct and which is why he claims to perform some kind of baseless “denacification” (The idea being that NATO intervened on invented charges in Serbia and then redrew the map). I am certainly not informed about the history of the region but my understanding is that ethnic cleansing and fear of an imminent genocide triggered the intervention in Serbia. This must of course also be seen in the context of the Srebrenica massacre and I don’t believe there is much controversy about war crimes being committed. Also, I doubt that anybody thinks that this was done intentionally to strip Serbia of one of its regions. In my idealistic world there should be an intervention everywhere where crimes against humanity are committed.
