Re: Putin purges Baltic commanders

it is difficult to grasp in this country of plenty, but rulers make mistakes that create sea-changes in the will of the people, and while they have no doubt learned from those mistakes, "let them eat cake," etc, the ptb are scared to death of you, united, and are never quite sure what outcome an even seemingly innocuous action might have. Starvation would be a likely more effective goad to war imo but again, i am just not seeing the value for satan in a world war, if virtually everyone is dying now in a sense, the living dead, fat, sick and nearly dead, etc. Possibly as a more efficacious pop reduction maneuver?

Re: Putin purges Baltic commanders

I have no doubt about a future world war. I believe its coming.

I also doubt the American people have the stomach for the fight which means we lose.

I do not however believe that means Obama would or could suspend elections or election results and set himself up as dictator.

That day is also likely coming but it will be like we have seen in places like Venezuela. It will be voted on by the masses.

That is the end goal of Progressivism. to create mob democracy then control the mob.

Where Russia is concerned? Putin doesn't need to preserve his power by purging his military. He has the power already. period. it might be prelude to some kind of attacks. I don't know. but its not to preserve what he already has.

as a matter of fact... yes....


one Russians perspective that I know quite well:

Putin is a psychopath and he wants to bring back the Russian Empire. That includes all of Eastern Europe.
