Nobody may use the word but there is a lot of just take out Putin and this will suddenly stop talk by some posters again that is what my word easy is in relation to
The Mark Hamill signed posters raffle is up by the way for anyone interested. Buys more drones for Ukraine
The name of that Latvian delegate (fair play to him) was Rihards Kols.
Its his invasion. Its his tool for strongman projection, his means for holding on to power, and his egos legacy. Cant see why it (war) would continue in a post vlad world. Hes the keystone.
The kremlin all know each other to be gangsters and corrupt and self serving to the core. Theres not one of them that wont take a payoff. If Vlad goes theyll all scarper and flip within the hour its announced.
And again you are seeing words that nobody here has posted! We all know it's not just a case of toppling putin but it would seem a necessary first step.
Ya cause there is no one else that would take over that maybe he things he is going soft or others who think like him. You think its only Putin if so why don't the army just stop or the generals. Come on you are better then this!!! I hope!!!
Right lads, who has a kamikazi drone with thermobaric charge handy? On second thoughts, getting rid of him seems to be very high on the agenda in Moscow so maybe leaving him alive is forthe best.
He claims to have solved his ammunition problem. Meanwhile Kadyrov is planning on raising his own private army to counter Wagner, odd as I thought he already had one. I guess tik-tokers are a joke to him also.
Timmy, can you please send us the source where you first read this? It sounds like one of those deliberate misinformation pieces deigned to sow discord among the Western supporters and if they got called out on it, they'll usually backtrack and say "whoopsie, got our numbers a bit mixed up, sorreee". This kind of stuff is usually peddled by the pro-Russian apologists. Not saying you were doing that of course; you were obviously taking it at face value and re-reporting it in good faith. I'm simply curious about the original source.
In the past 24 hours I gave €100 towards thermal sights wanted in Bakhmut and another €100 towards humanitarian aid in Kherson. March, hmm, I'll start saving.
Different ears.
Nice
Remember the names of the posters who kept coming in still no invasion today told you so .
🤦♂️🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Like who?
And why does it always have to be the assumption that the next guy is worse, a theory just pulled from an arse, who knows when, and parroted since like its gospel.
An equally valid theory as one which suposses that the next guy will be an absolute teddy bear.
Im equally sure there are plenty of generals who think Vlad is a complete prick and would gladly see him dead and quickly reverse his decisions.
Being at the top of a crumbling command that you know to be full of untrustworthy gangsters and incompetents, facing massive, competent and resolute forces far more capable than yours tends to help with decision making as to whether or not to go on the offensive.
Putin is bumping off powerful people inside his regime left right and center for a reason. Even you can see that. Theres no loyalty to a regime full of corruption and gangsters, nobody in the kremlin trusts each other, and many elites want Putin dead - whether for personal financial gain or for peace.
Tldr; even if the theoretical next guy had murderous intentions somehow beyond putins, he'd still have relatively little control, as within seconds of putins corpse hitting the pavement there'd be an instant bank run of self serving corruption.
Not that hard to figure out if youd actually think about it.
Youre Putins replacement. First day on the job.
You know your hierarchy to be composed of 'thieves in law' bosses, gazprom execs and 1000 shady oligarchs.
The only thing holding the shtshow together was a fear of ol vlad. And his death is on the news.
Do you (A) double down against US and EU backed forces.
(B) Take whatever payola you can from the c.i.a guy and grab what you can before the sht really hits the fan, and go live in Florida.
You left out LOADS of others - attempts and killed eg Ml Collins, a recent pope, Abe (Japan), was it a Norwegian PM, A Bangladeshi PM back in the70s’ - was it two of them?,
There's a nice video of them inflating a nice M270 MLRS decoy but no HIMARS. These decoys are a gas.
Time to re-read that alright.
You tell me.
Too many posts to repost from 12 months ago.
But there will be no war in Ukraine, America is broke.
Oh dear......
Would you believe it that he has all those levels of security ejmaztec ? or not? My betting is that he has, and possibly even more levels...when you have murdered as many as Putin has, the paranoia has to kick in at some point!!! And he is sure displaying some kind of mental imbalance. As you said,no outsider will get near enough to do it, and as for someone as talented as Chris Kyle ( American Sniper) getting a shot at Putin ( aside from Vladimir permanently hiding behind bullet proof glass ) would be slim in the extreme. His closest companions are a lattice-work of his ex KGB associates, and I'm pretty sure that they will protect him, as their own and their family's lives depends on Putin remaining alive. I'm not even too sure that if Prigozhin led his merry band to the Kremlin, and assaulted Putin ( assuming that Prigozhin knew where he was..) would he succeed. I just do not know that any of the "usual" methods will work with Putin..possibly a rogue Air Force officer dropping a bomb on the Kremlin???
Where is Brutus when you need him????😊
20k for a glorified bouncy castle. Not bad business.
My guess is that with Putin, he would see it as a case of them or me, and call out the army to clear the streets of protesters, let it be 10 or 100'000 people. He would go on TV and claim the foreign backed terrorists have attacked Moscow, and call all true Russians out to defend the state. After that, it would be make your mind up time for the military, which way would the swing. If they supported Vladimir, then it would be a blood bath, followed by an even bigger bloodbath to cleanse the City of "terrorists".. If the military sided with the people, the it would be tne end of Putin. How he would leave the stage though,is another matter. Head or feet first.
I would be interested to know how many profiles listed on page one's merit list stopped posting on boards immediately when thread banned also.
He probably died two years ago and these are his doppelgangers trained for the last ten years mooching about. 🤣
He'll be like a vampire and never die. With a conveyer of doppelgangers coming out of the kremlin plastic surgery clinic.😎
I sure hope you be right as the other outcome is a power vacuum with forces taking control with a bloody civil war and other former soviet states been drawn into it
A civil war between which power blocs?
I think that if 10'000 take to the streets of Moscow, Putin will first try ordinary methods of crowd control, if it's more, and it gets out of control, he will call in the military and order then to open fire. And yes, he 's capable of doing it, I believe.
Who knows we could have faction loyal to Putin, Wagner group. It also could be it all end peaceful call me pessimistic
Can only hope theres a western intel group having quiet chats with a potential replacement.
Surely there are prefered replacements picked out by now, even if it is just files on a desk.
China probably have their man picked out by now, paid off and ready.
Could it be China that invite Vlad for tea and a look at Xis new basement?
Oh hey Vrad, cmon down stairs, check out my new mancave.
Well believe it ,but someone else mentions the number of Russian police officers,that's for the whole of Russia,but look at the population of Moscow alone is 12 million people,it's not as if the people don't have the numbers,if the people wanted they can make a difference,
But won't
