These are the rain drops in the basin that will be come WWIII.

 

This is the Quote of the year leader

no popinjay here. quite stunning

 

My husband refers to Putin as "the next Hitler".

 

I hope he's wrong because Hitler got himself destroyed. Hitler had no reason to attack Russia. They had a treaty. Putin is too smart for that. He won't make major military mistakes if there is a war.

 

And the IRS is currently (and figuratively speaking) "executing" opponents of His Holiness King Obama.

Sounds like the US and Russia have some scary similarities. We may not be quite as bad politically as russia yet but we seem to be headed that direction with frightening speed.

 

Putin had nothing to do with that attack. In fact we were having dinner together when that happened. I know this because he paid me to say it.

 

Local news headline was something like "Putin says it looked like hitman's job".
My immediate thought was that he knew that because he paid for the job.

 

So all you you Putin Lovers

Your boy just had the leading political opposition leader assassinated.

he still aint got nothin on the Clintons...

 

I didn't see the part where Putin did it. Am I missing something? Evidently they need an IRS branch over there so people don't die, they just get audited.

 

Vince Foster would agree :thumb:

 

I had something different in mind when I first saw the title to this thread. Just ate at Taco Bell and putin like a choo choo train.

My only other relative comment is that nugget of truth offered up by leftist Franklin D. Roosevelt who stated: "In politics, nothing happens by accident. If it happens, you can bet it was planned that way."

 

The only difference I see between Putin and Obama is that Obama has less than 2 years left. And thank God for that.

But pray to God something worse isn't coming for us.

 

". . .& then there was Hillary"

 

The weird thing is, if somebody would ask me about Nemtsov (given I am not closely following Russian politics), I would say he is a "has been", and not a threat or anything for anyone.
I actually met him here in the US, lets say 10 years ago at the Dulles airport (he helped my in-law with translation at the customs, they came on the same flight, I think) and he seemed like a nice guy.

 

Isn't this the man that recently refused to be on house arrest? The article said he had a protest planned soon. Maybe Putin wanted to send a message to his opposition.

 

BTW, today is a new holiday in Russia (unrelated to Nemtsov, but...). For the first time Special Operations Force Day is celebrated today.

Mark my words:

There will come a time in most of our lifetimes when we will welcome an ally like a Putin-led Russia.

It doesn't matter if you agree or not. The US will not be able to stand alone in the near future and there will be a short list of countries that can and will help us.

 

with a friend like putin, all of the west's other enemies would be forgotten. and yes, it does matter to disagree with your statement.

 

Well of all the countries in the world, A Putin led Russia would be the very last to be our ally. Not because Americans hate Russians or visa versa. The leaders have always hated each other. Even during World War 2 they didn't really like each other. And Putin was raised and indoctrinated to specifically hate the US. And believe me, he does. We were friends last with Russia in 1870.

 

I don't know about nations being "friends", but the US and Russia have been working very closely together for more than 20 years now on issues of mutual interest. Just one project has spent more than $135 million on upgrading one type of security in Russia, and there are many, many projects. US guys have been trained in Russia and visited Russian sites, and Russians have been trained in and visited many sites in the US.

Putin is a problem, but Putin won't be around forever. A stable, prosperous Russia is in the US's best interest. Much work has been done to align our two countries in a cooperative partnership, and it has been successful. Putin is surely rocking the boat, and he should be contained and constrained, but Russia and the Russian people are not our enemy. I agree with hawkbern...in the world that will emerge in the next 10 years the US will need allies, or at least non-hostile states with whom to negotiate. Changes are coming, and its a good bet that we won't like a lot of them...

 

Leaders liking each other won't have anything to do with it. At times throughout history, an enemy of an enemy becomes a friend of convenience. We will need it.

Like I said, no need to believe it, just my prediction.

 

Putin is a very good shooter , from the Kreml only 200 metres ...

The Night of the Long Knives

How many other protesters have just "disappeared?"

In Germany 1934 The Night of the Long Knives took place and nobody realized what had happened until it was all over.

 

The opposition will hold in Moscow, ,,the Maidan,, about the murder of Nemtsov . Before 1 March was planned anticrisis dissenters marches , but few wanted to go there . I hope there don't will be provocations with killing people (snipers in Libya , Syria , Ukraine ).

Putin knows he must stay in power. He knows what happens to tyrants that have pillaged the wealth of there nation after they leave office. They get strung up or beheaded or worse.
He must stay in power to survive.

 

"He was about to lead an opposition rally in Moscow opposing Putin's rule."

....................timing is everything.

 

I'm aware of the military relationship we started to have with Russia. Also familiar with American and European investments into Russia. I'm not speaking about things like that. Russia has historically opposed everything we do via the UN, I don't see us ever being close friends like we are with the UK. If they changed to a real democracy maybe that will change. Russia doesn't like the US and hasn't for since World War 1. I would like to see that change. But I don't see it.

 

Oh the Putin love around this place is sickening. Remember this is the kind of leader you LAUD over him but crucify Obama for killing a traitor who was at war against America (see al-Awaki drone strike).

Not sure how Putin is praise worthy in anyway, not sure how American's can have any love for this man, yet it continues to happen around here. This is just one of his many atrocious acts he has committed as leader and his make the a drone strike look like kids play.

Look what he did here, to Khodorkovsky, to the band ***** riot, to the journalist Politkovskaya, to Markelov (a civil rights lawyer who was beaten, killed then tried and sentenced to 8 years) and the list goes on and on and on.....

 

I would trade Russia leaders anytime.

As an Obama worshiper yourself, you are hardly an impartial judge.

Putin and his supporters are saying the assassination is a provocation, possibly from the west to attempt destabilize the country. Of course he would say that. I personally believe Putin wants a war with the west at this point. And is preparing for one. I don't feel the West had anything to do with it. It's a terrible time for the US to be leaderless.

Of course he does. The sanctions the west placed on him are killing his economy and factually, he brought this all on himself.

Putin is not a hero, a good guy or a leader, he is a KGB thug looking to damage us and the rest of the west. It's his lives mission.

 

Putin knows very well who killed him.

Nothing of this nature would occur in Russia without Putin's approval. It's a very top-down government, with all important decisions vetted by the very top.
