Quoted: I believe it took a Billion to build, though not sure if that includes the required remodel, but probably includes the graft. For anyone who hasn’t seen it, Navalny had a great investigative documentary, Putins Palace. ![]() View Quote IIRC I saw a documentary on that palace. It had airflow/humidity/mold problems out the ass. Supposedly it was not a liveable environment for anybody. |

Quoted: Two Romes have fallen, the third stands, and there will be no fourth. View Quote When the whore of Babylon falls...well that's a sign of all the real New World Order... What they call their NWO is just the same old world order endlessly repeated throughout history that ends when Jesus Christ returns...then we're free of all the old madness. |

Quoted: But in this case he’s pissed off a lot of oligarchs who have lost considerable amounts of their fortunes due to his war.

I'm sure he has information on everyone who is the slightest threat to him that makes it difficult for anyone to easily bump him off and not pay a steep price, probably first their family, while they watch, followed by them. Not counting his own private army of carefully selected security people. |

Quoted: Quoted: A communist scumbag has nothing to do with Christianity. Like Biden, Pelosi, Obama and Kamala? There are basically only two types of people in the whole world. Those accepted by God the Father through His Son Jesus Christ and have their sins expunged. and those who have rejected God and His Son's salvation instead preferring to be judged holding onto their sins. |

Quoted: With the amount of bullshit that's come out since the beginning, I'll believe it when it happens. It would be nice, but I'm not getting my hopes up. View Quote I’d tend to agree… BUT- being that it’s a fact that Brandon’s been bought and almost certainly blackmailed, aaand that his old boss actually did collude with RussiaRussiaRussia and Putin (after the second election gave him more “flexibility”…) it’s not beyond the realm of possibilities that it’s no coincidence that this comes out at the same time FJB seems to be getting Cuomo’d |

Quoted: 16 levels underground? I'd be very surprised if there is 'stuff' on every single floor, because we're talking the square footage of a decent sized office building (except buried underground). What the guy might've meant is there is a nuclear/SHTF bunker that is 16 flights of stairs down. View Quote We had the Greenbriar hotel/ bunker for decades, and now who knows what and where replaced it, so it actually wouldn’t surprise me one bit if his personal lair (only) had 16 underground levels, which most certainly include command and control spaces along with medical facilities… |

He can roam around in his “safe” house…sort of like having and living in your own prison.

Successor? He's killed, jailed, or exiled (and later killed?) anyone even surmising a fraction of power or influence he has. He even demoted Medvedev, his original successor who wasn't strong enough for him.
That's why he sits in empty rooms and does teleconferencing, or sits at the end of a 50 foot long table uses the same 30 actors for all his propaganda. |

Quoted: Putin doesn't hold a candle to them. Iraq alone - 500,000 civilian deaths and all for a fake premise. ... View Quote Yea, anytime a 2 bit dictator decides to "annex" a sovereign nation like Kuwait or other major oil suppliers at will and control the worlds supply, we should just hold a civil suit. The same kind of legal action that was suggested by many of our politicians and the media after 9-11. There is not a single thing, including the lives of 3,000 Americans on US soil worth waging war, when we can just talk to tyrants to reason and win their hearts over. ![]() ETA; Bush 1 had it right; You bomb the crap out of your adversary and leave his middle east shithole flat to make it look better the next day then how they've kept it for a century. Bush 2, and BHO policies of retaliating and then wasting years of US lives and resources being there are what causes the resentment expressed here daily. I get that. Don't confuse the 2 different strategies. |

Quoted: Dude, I want DavidA back, trolls these days don't even try. View Quote I have to at least admit I think Dave was onto something with his view of history, that most revolutions end in terror and bloodshed (reference the Bolshevik revolution and French revolution), and that the American revolution was an anomaly, in that it didn't end in a lot of blood letting, except for on the battlefield of course. Is it safe to call him by that certain name that at least someone got banned for now that he's been gone so long? ![]() |

Quoted: You do understand that this (assuming it is accurate) is a negotiating position--right? This is what is called a carrot. If you don't think that there is anyone worse, indeed FAR worse, than Putin who could take control of the Russian State then maybe you had best wargame your list of potential outcomes in greater depth. View Quote He died recently, but there are probably more like him in Russian politics. ![]() Russian presidential candidate throws water at opponent, sending debate off the rails |

Quoted: America: Entrepreneur Russia: Oligarch America: Cruise missile Russia: Suicide drone View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: America: Entrepreneur Russia: Oligarch America: Cruise missile Russia: Suicide drone There is a bit of a difference between an Oligarch and an Entrepreneur. Suicide drones are much different from cruise missiles and both the USA and Russia have a lot of both. American missiles and drones seem to not target apartment buildings as much as Russian ones, do you know why they're doing that? @milspectoilet Quoted: Putin doesn't hold a candle to them. Iraq alone - 500,000 civilian deaths and all for a fake premise. Everyone involved got filthy rich. Nobody knows how many civilians in Syria, Libya, Yemen, Egypt... Who knows how many civs killed in South Ossetia war sponsored by GWB and company (another failed coup) ...or how many civilians we killed in Kosovo when we bombed every bridge on the Danube river and attacked their electrical infrastructure. Wait, now anti-American groups are right? Russia murdered 7 million Ukrainians in one year. We haven't even addressed their own secret police, gulags, and other genocides Russia carried out. |

Putin isn't going anywhere, he is paranoid and has spent decades removing anyone that could possibly challenge him. Even if someone were to replace him that person would be just as paranoid as Putin is and their first piece of business would be to remove anyone that could challenge them. He is smart enough to know that at this point he either helms the SS RF as it sinks or runs aground, or he gets merc'd a bit after someone is installed to replace him.

Quoted: Bush, Obama and Biden are just as much war criminals as Putin. What now? View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes I have to admit I see the Iraq war in a bit of a different light since the war in Ukraine began. Knowing people you care about that are actually from the country and are being affected helps to give you a new perspective. There was a lot of protesting and opposition to it back in 2003 and onwards, but it was also not long at all after 9/11, and the memory was still very fresh and the thirst for payback still warm enough. Quoted: Russia murdered 7 million Ukrainians in one year. We haven't even addressed their own secret police, gulags, and other genocides Russia carried out. As others have said already in this thread, life is rarely just, it's not like a disney movie where the good guys always win. The USSR was on the winning side in WWII, yet probably killed more innocent people than Nazi Germany, but because they were on the winning side, there were never trials of NKVD that carried out mass executions of innocent civilians or POWs, and Stalin didn't commit suicide like Hitler. |

Well, that will make his overrunning Western Europe with his murdering hordes kind of hard.

Quoted: Quoted: A communist scumbag has nothing to do with Christianity. Like Biden, Pelosi, Obama and Kamala? Don't forget the current pope. Curious to see how Putin's replacement will be. They usually tend to be worse than the ones they are replacing, despite we always think it cannot be worse than it is. (e.g. we currently have a corrupt and senile pedophile playing potus when we thought it couldn't be worse than the inept drug-addict turd before Trump). |

Putin is commie filth. However, why does everyone in GD assume his successor wont be worse? Last time I checked Stalin was worse than Lenin. FYI it wont end the war in Ukraine. Its just another forever war.
