    Abovealpha, you are wrong again. Russia is evolving and so do Russian politicians. Putin is still growing and he will stay in history as a great Russian leader of post Soviet era. Every goo d leader has EGO. Everything depends what his ego is doing. Putin does great job for Russia and for the world. You overlooked the changes from Andropov to Putin. However, Andropov made one move, which determined history of the world: he had hand picked M. Gorbachev and added him to the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union. Thus, M. Gorbachev was the only man among ruling elite of that time, who did not go through long routine filters, climbing power ladder. I hope you know the rest of the story.

    Yes...History will be the judge but as we all know History is written by the victors and survivors.

    Be honest with me.....do you HONESTLY see any good for the Russian Population by P!$$!NG OFF the United States and Europe?

    And do you HONESTLY think that young modern Russian's will ut up with a National Austerity Program like existed in the Soviet Union under Stalin and every Soviet Leader?

    I think not personally but tell me what YOU think.

    I honestly believe that Russia wanted to be a part of the west, However, EU and NATO rejected Russian advances. Moreover, EU and NATO advanced eastward, surrounding Russia with military bases. Even now, Putin is open to dialogue and cooperation.
    You may find it in interviews on the news. Now, this is a thing of the past. Russia showed flexibility and versatility , cooperation with China is a factor of global importance.

    I honestly believe that young Russians will easily live through temporary austerity, because that austerity is nothing by comparison with what their parents had to live through. I grew up under conditions of 'austerity': no running water (we had a well), and shorteges in groceries, but we had clean water, fresh air and quality foods from our own garden and animals. This was not the worst part of our life at all. We had more serious problems then. Now, Russia is very different, indeed. They have freedom we could not even dream of then.

    Granted Russian's certainly have more freedom than they did under Stalin....but we have this thing known as the INTERNET.

    It was developed by both the U.S. Military and Brits.

    When you compare the level of freedom existing in Europe and the United States compared to that in Russia it is a stark comparison.

    What I worry about is how bad is Putin willing to allow the Russian Economy to get?

    I am sure you are aware that at any moment of choice the United States could force the entire Russian Economy to collapse and that is certainly something we DO NOT WANT TO DO!!

    We didn't even want to apply sanctions but Putin's actions forced us as it is in the National Security Interests of the United States for Russia to have a strong economy.

    Do you see our dilema?

    And then Putin making all these absolutely absurd statements about Russia going to war with the U.S. being inevitable?

    WE know that's not going to happen.

    Putin certainly knows that's not going to happen.

    But the question remains just how many Russian Nationalists believe that could hapen?

    Hopefully not many.

    I can agree in principle that an unbalanced, delusional ego can, indeed, be a dangerous thing. Barack Obama comes to mind....

    Putin surely has an ego, but if you've studied him then you know his rather humble beginnings, right through the time of his postings in East Germany were anything but a series of cheering crowds and campaign pep-rallies, with everyone hanging on his every word, ready to kiss his ass on any pretext.
    His great love, his great concern, and his only focus is the Rodina -- the "Motherland", Mother Russia!

    He's an educated man, and if you know anything about educational standards in Europe you know that there is a vast difference between those and the joke of an "education" system that we have grown accustomed to in the United States. It would be mostly pointless if we were to try to compare Putin's Bachelor's Degree from Leningrad State University and Doctor of Jurisprudence degree from St. Petersburg State University with, say, Barack Obama's academic achievements. Besides, Obama has his own school records permanently shut to public view anyway.... :roflol:

    But is Putin dangerous? Of course he's dangerous! I would never engage in a game of brinksmanship with a man of his depth, intelligence, and experience unless I knew for an undisputed fact that I had the ability to destroy him and his precious Russia with near-impunity, and, that he also knew it. What no one seems to understand is that we haven't seen anyone quite like Vladimir Putin since World War II. He's everything we really do NOT want to have in an adversary, especially when we have an inept, distracted, disinterested, posturing, self-indulgent adolescent like Barack Obama leading our team.

    Russia is still a second-rate military power, but Putin is a first-rate leader. Our situation in the U. S., with our wonderous President Red Line running the show, is the exact opposite....

    As far as how strong a Leader Obama is...it no longer matters.

    Putin has made the ONE UNPARDONABLE SIN.....Thou shall not make policy or create events that cause those who support you to LOSE MONEY!!!

    This will be his undoing.

    In addition I don't know what kind of people sit in the US/NATO strategic policy and planning teams these days. One thing for sure, they're not the brightest bulbs in the box. Their repeated failures to see the bigger picture is simply astonishing. Betting on Russian people to overthrow Putin on their behalf is as ridiculous as it gets. On the contrary, their stupid policies made him by far the most popular president in the world.

    Moscow Region, Railway: Moscow - Kiev.


    How many Russian rulers (Putin) stupid, because the United States and Europe are not really led sanctions against Russia. If sanctions lead by plane, car, Russia to smoke white flag! And I can see that in Russia, pensioners do not skimp (smaller) pension, and therefore Russia feels weak crisis of sanctions.

    Putin has repeatedly pugaet (bullying) balisticheskie missile Bulava, Europe and USA. If you pay attention to the Russian teleyidenie show single Bulava missile launch, while not once, did not show (not) Running multiple (mass) missiles (Simultaneity, groups of missiles). Hence we conclude, Putin blifuet (lying) that Russia has missiles Bulova that can take off simultaneously from different teretorii Russia, so Putin has no weapons, missiles which pokakazyvayut speaking television and hence Putin's lying, and hence the system perimeter (dead hand) only fiction and fairy tales!

    This kind of war talk by Putin makes no sense except to the Home Crowd in Russia Putin Supporters...who will support him right up to the moment the Ruble is rendered worthless and they have no money to pay for heating their homes.

    Russia is not even CLOSE to being a match to the U.S. Military.

    That ship sailed a LOOOOOOGGGG time ago.
