As War Drags On, Moscow Expert Says ‘Putin Needs To Watch His Back’

[Litwin]

It doesn't take an expert to say Putin needs to watch his back. ​

With 6,000 nukes and a war not going well for Putin I am watching my own back...

Giving the impression that he is capable of using extreme force can be a deterrent to prevent other countries from confronting Putin but it can also lead Russians to fear that their leader is out of control and needs to be taken out.

America is stationing soldiers in many NATO nations in Europe. Germany is going to add $100B to their defense budget (NOW they listen?). This should wisen Putin up as he realizes that short of a nuclear war, any expansionist ideas have limits.

More and more though it must be said, that Trumps policies have been proven better. Now that you have Obama II and are dependent on foreign energy, Putin sees the light turn green again.

Mafia bosses always have to be ever vigilant. They are constrained by their past choices to make only limited choices in the present and future. This increases their vulnerability. Essentially, they are at the center of many layers of 'protection', or imprisonment, looked at another way. Any chink in this encirclement, the smallest defect, can mean sudden disaster for this figure. Will Putin fall victim to his own? Unlikely. Will he be done in by someone from outside? Also unlikely.
History is full of unlikely events.

Operations began Feb 22...it's Mar 09.

Unlike the internet....wars take time.

You fucking simps....lol!

Even the bombing campaign in Iraq lasted 42 days...and they were scantly as well armed or funded as the bone brained Ukrainians.

You people are dim witted, drones.

WTF? asskissing Adolph Putin and lying that American democracy failed in 2020 and TRUMP JR plotting with his daddy’s chief of staff to sieze the White House for the Trump family dynasty, so much quite similar to what Putin did to become a self appointed lifetime Czar.

No thanks Canadian - ThIs American will keep the multicultural liberal democracy that I inherited from the greatest generation of which so many were Canadian, What happened to you, that TRUMPutin authoritarianism has earned your respect and support.

The premise in IRAQ was just as false and tinged with REPUBLUCAN PARTY / WHITE EVANGELICAL CHRISTIAN revenge for 9/11 that SH and Iraq had nothing to do with, but the unjustified bombing there in Iraq was to dislodge a Henchmen with no record of being in power due to the will of the Iraqi SHIITE majority. You make an absurd comparison . What is your propaganda motive?

 

[Gabe Lackmann]

Iraqi SHIITE majority.

Iraq is Sunni...Iran is Shiite.

You make an absurd comparison .

As is the totality of your comment.

 

[NotfooledbyW]

Iraq is Sunni...Iran is Shiite.

Iraq is majority SHIITE . SH was a minority Sunni Tyrant who oppressed Shia. GET TO KNOW some truth.
