Mouse. Flaming, arsonist, house-burning mouse.

At a joint press conference with Mr Blair, he could not resist the temptation to humiliate the British Prime Minister about the absence of weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. "Maybe they're here, under this desk" he sneered. Mr Blair has never trusted him again.

It was not a joke Saddam’s WMD were really smuggled to Russia just before invasion. I think that Blair lost the chance for a brilliant remark :)

Everyone who has dared challenge or resist Mr Putin's rule has been sidelined, neutralised or humiliated.

Stalin was a good teacher.

A western newspaper editor who met him was amazed when the Russian leader murmured at the start of the interview, in English, "I hope your wife's mother recovers soon." Not even the editor's closest colleagues knew that his mother-in-law was gravely ill.

Translation: Easy questions please. :)

Young Putin joined to Communist party of the Soviet Union. This party was gang and mob of the complete scoundrels. History of humanity did not know such worst people.
Who can be Putin after that? What you can find out in his character after that?
If it is not enough for you, Putin joined to KGB. Who is he after that? Scumbag.
Putin is morally depraved person.
Putin has got nicknames such as "pale moth" and "Kremlin gopher".
Enough for now..

That settles it for me. I am mystified how even conservatives bend over backward to justify Putin. What a crazy world we live in!

I understand your name, but apparently your belief in how God changes men's hearts is totally lacking.

Putin: Lean, Tough, Scrupulous, and Christian!

Why should I believe anything you write or believe, seeing it is based on pure hate?

God hardened his heart, Pharaoh did not have a choice to profess anything.

Now Christ said there would be many 'professing' to be Christian and He told us NOT to be deceived.

Communist party membership was practically compulsory especially in big cities.

I suppose you want to arrest every Pole who was ever a member as well yes?

It is amazing how you want to escape from the fact that Putin was a member of the murderous KGB. The worst kind of beasts served in this organization not incidental people from the street.

No, it would be costly and unnecessary solution. I would arrest only those who committed various kind of crimes and actively betrayed Poland. All member of the UB (Polish KGB) should be arrested. For other members of the communist party access to the public functions should be forbidden, maybe even right to vote. There is a lot of opportunist in this group they should be also punished to give good example for the future.

He was a KGB handler in a remote offie until his apparently bang up job led to the tearing down of the Berlin wall, subsequently he worked as a paper pusher in St Petersburg.

I don’t know wherever I understood your post correctly. Do you give Putin some credit in tearing down a Berlin wall? HAHAHA!
