@Vonzales Putin is obviously ill, probably not long for this world. It has been reported he obsesses over how Moammar Gadhafi's body was defiled after he was killed.
Frankly, I am thinking Putin plans to take the whole world with him when he dies, just to avoid that which he knows he deserves.
@Vonzales Yeah, if he doesn't start WWIII first. Seems to be his goal.

I think something is going to crack inside their Czardom much sooner. Putin's memory will be vilified like Stalin's and Chausescu's by his yesterday's most ardent worshippers. He'll be ridiculed, shamed, spat on and reduced to shit, and his memory will be that of a monstrous clown who's fault is EVERYTHING.
That's just the way Russia works as a society.
