He might not be rational, but surely nobody can argue that he is insane to that level – at least, I haven’t seen anything that suggests that.


He's just a little bitch screaming to everyone's face "I'm gonna use nukes!" hoping we give him what he wants.

What does he have to lose by alluding to using nukes right now?

Nukes are the only thing stopping the West from rolling into Moscow, the magic wears off if the clock strikes 12. Nukes only work for the 15 minutes before they are used, Putin and Lavrov keep crying "Nuklear wolf!".


> Nukes are the only thing stopping the West from rolling into Moscow

Yeah, tell Napoleon and Hitler how easy that is.


Napoleon and Hitler were not defeated by Russia. Napoleon/Hitler could have raised 3 more armies if they were fighting just Russia.

On the contrary, Putin is the new insane and isolated Hitler.


The Soviets destroyed 3 times as many German divisions as the western front allies combined.


Because the german forces were split and the allies supplied USSR, otherwise the USSR would have collapsed. Without the allied material support and the german forces being split, the USSR would have been deffeated.

It's not something that I would have liked, just the truth.

People claiming Russia to be invulnerable miss the real lesson of those conflicts -- the ballance of power.

The ballance of power is set against Russia right now, if the West remains strong in its unity and resolve, Russia will collapse.
