Ok...Oh no. Seems like Vladimir Putin is deeply afraid of the West. In the wake of increasing distaste from the civilized world over the downing of the Malaysian airliner last week, Putin has announced that he will increase the strength of the Russian military to “counter” the threat posed by the Nato Alliance. I have been writing about Putin and his hysterics. Please visit us there.
Puhleeeze... Is Putin the most deluded leader on the world stage? Or is he speaking to his constituents? Or both? It is likely that this statement is designed to placate the Russian oligarchs, who have placed their dirty bets on Putin’s staying power (despite their recent queasiness over Vlad’s warmongering overtures). Putin needs the oligarchs to stay in power and if there’s one thing the world has learned, it’s that Putin will do anything within, or without of, the bounds of decency to keep his gold-leafed throne in the Kremlin.
Is Vlad really looking for World War Three, or is he more sensible than that? Look at history, folks. Sensibility might not be foremost in Putin’s mind.
