Desperate putin

We are now entering day 66 of the 'special military operation' to take Kyiv in two days. That pretence has been a humiliating failure, so I expect that the neurotic liar putin will formally declare war on Ukraine in the next week or two.

This will allow him to declare martial law, force all current conscripts to remain in the army for as long as he wants, and introduce nationwide conscription. This will make it easier for the war criminal putin to hide the 23,000 dead russian soldiers that he and his criminal clique still won’t acknowledge.

He will also be able to nationalise foreign holdings in russia. Frankly, those Western corporations still operating in russia [i]deserve[/i] to lose their assets there.

The resultant surge of patriotism among the barbarian population will help him to divert attention from the shortages and difficulties caused by the sanctions. The russian thieves have just stolen hundreds of thousands of tonnes of grain from Ukraine. The russians say щи да каша пища наша (cabbage soup and gruel are our food), but apparently they’re hanging out for bread and alcohol instead... or perhaps the russian looters are running out of washing machines and laptops to steal.

The pretext will probably be attacks on russian apartment blocks or some such ‘outrage’... in reality, carried out by the russian FSB (again!)

War to be declared May 9.
Nuclear Threats
Mobilisation

The west has nine days......
Send guns and munitions NOW


The last gasp of putin’s final days....
@KiwiBird You really wish (as I may to, just in different means)... This is going to go on for a long time now. His last days are not his unlawful war in Ukraine, or holding citizens in Russia hostage... Thats wishful and the best power, outside political might in warfare, is telling him his war is meaningless.

@thewindupbirdchronicles I would wish an immediate ceasefire and russian withdrawal from all Ukraine Sovereign Lands.....including Crimea and Donbas. putin’s immediate death would be a bonus. I do not think this is going to be a 20 year US/Afghanistan type conflict or even a 10 year russian/Afghanistan one.
@KiwiBird That's your perspective, I appreciate. I think Putin knew if he set war in Europe, he was opening a longer war similar to the cold war and let's hope it only ends there?

@KiwiBird 'or even a 10 year russian/Afghanistan one.'

I wouldn't bet on it. The war in the east has already being going on for eight years.

@RodionRomanovitch True. However and this current offensive is simply a continuation of that and Crimea. I thought it might be a long drawn out war....however Ukraine has surprised us all and russia has been somewhat underwhelming. Hopefully it will finish sooner rather than later and putin will be buried.
