Some of this may be about fear.

Most Soviet officials who made the revolution look bad were offered the Fort Marcy Park retirement option if they declined to accept orders from the deep red state.

He probably wanted to crush the holdouts to make them examples but his presidential physicians showed him the syringe he would receive if he acted out in this performance.

Forget good guys and bad guys.

I’d argue we have no freaking idea what in Hades is really going on. Or why.

If that’s the case, we can’t determine jack ****.

That’s why, when I bother to go to the Russia/Ukraine threads, it’s to ask how we’re supposed to believe anything we’re being told by the same people who ended our republic?

Everything we’re being told/shown is being told/shown to us by proven liars and enemies.

Who in his/her right mind can make any kind of decision, form an opinion based on info that is highly suspect?

Until we get our republic back, they can all go to Hell with my blessing.

Yeah, eastern Europe has a lot of bad actors. As long as we (USA) stay out of it I’m a happy camper. I hate that the US get involved in all these useless neocon wars. We have millions invading US at our southern border and we are suppose to worry about the Ukraine’s border with Russia? I think not.

What worries me is who replaces Putin

It's a valid concern, however in the present, if poots goes into the dirt from some medical issue/karma, then it "fixes the glitch" for now.

All we reslly know for sure is Putin and Zalensky are like kleptocrats, Putin might be unbalanced, and Russia isn’t the awesome force most people thought, but does have thousands of ICBMs.

What can we conclude from these known details?

it would be nice if long-time members could stop screaming at each other long enough to look at this video.

the rumors about parkinsons and/or other issues have been around longer than this war. it is interesting he felt it important enough to do this without waiting and be filmed while it wasn’t completely under control.

Putin is the evil we are dealing with right now.
His successor might be worse, or might be better. We don’t know.

At some point Gog will invade Israel to take a spoil. So you might be right, the successor might be worse. Doesn’t matter. We’re supporting Ukraine it it’s fight against evil. And what Putin has done to Ukraine is evil.

5 million refugees. Tens of thousands of Ukrainian citizens and military murdered. 20,000 Russia troops dead. Towns, infrastructure, residential areas leveled.

The problem is that he may be helped along by someone even more ruthless.

I don’t believe in Bible prophecy.

“We’re supporting Ukraine it it’s fight against evil.”

Who is we? I support neither. Both are trash.

Oh, they are not “neo” according to the Russians. They are full blooded, swastika wearing, goose stepping, SS branded Ukranian Nazis. And everyone in Ukraine supports their Anti-Jew rants.

Oh wait....No they don’t.

other than all the ocher oddities about his physical appearance mentioned, to me he looks to be in great pain and his legs look very skinny.

He is slowly morphing into Rudy Guliani. (appearance, not personality.)

It's not half, it's a couple of 'bad actors' who constantly pick fights with anyone who posts or mentions something negative regarding their 'glorious leader'.

-------------------------------

On the topic of Parkinsons, it's pretty obvious there's some degenerative disease at work here. Based on how much effort is going on to control what looks to be tremors, I would have to question his ability to stand for any significant period of time, let alone walk.

Putin will likely be dead by the end of the year as the single significant determiner of life expectancy is the ability to walk 1/4 of a mile. If he can't do that, it puts life expectancy at under six months

Remember the old Roger Ramjet cartoons? Now all you Young Putineers have your own theme song!

(Sung to the tune of Yankee Doodle)

Vladi Putin and his men
Fighting for Mother Russia.
Sweeping through Crimea
Then on to Belorussia.

Vladi Putin, he’s our man
Hero of our imagination.
For his adventures, just be sure
To look for his next invasion.

So come and join us, all you kids,
For lots of fun and laughter.
As Vladi Putin and his men
Grab the empire that they’re after.

Vladi Putin, he’s our man,
Hero of our imagination.
For his adventures, just be sure
To enjoy the occupation.

[Closing Theme]

When Vladi says “Polonium Pill,”
The expats start to worry.
They can’t escape their awful fate
From Putin’s mighty fury.

Vladi Putin, he’s our man,
Hero of our imagination.
For his adventures, just be sure
To prep for radiation!
