    Putin's paranoia is probably going to cost him his life by the end of this year at the rate he is losing touch with reality. I seriously doubt most of those pics/videos of Putin are not really him, but his dopplegangers. Saddam used body doubles as well, so this may be a common procedure. His only source of news is state sponsored, so I doubt he has a single clue what the common Russian thinks of him.

    The guy does debunk the idea that Putin is terminally ill as he didn't witness those issues.

    Agreed on the possible body doubles.

    Putin is now taking away passports from elites and insiders because so many want to defect and abandon him.

    How far does "loyalty" go when the "insiders" and "elites'" lifestyle starts to get squeezed by sanctions??....when one is used to steak and lobster every night at dinner....kinda hard to give that up?....LOL.

    Not only that, but he has frozen bank accounts for many elites. Probably need money for his war chest.

    Their reserves will be gone by the end of the year at the latest. Then with a economy deep in depression, tax revenue falling way short, Putin will have to start printing money as he cannot borrow on international markets. Money printing will inevitably result in higher inflation.

    That Russian dude is going to play like a fiddle and we as the audience are loving every minute of it, and the guy knows it.
    And the better he plays the better he gets paid, and the guy knows it.

    If it means that he gets paid more when he says that Putin never sees daylight, than he'll play that song.

    It's not any different then Scott Ritter...or any other rt shill who spew an anti west narrative.

    The only thing you can take from the story is somebody that used to work close to Putin has opted to risk their life by defecting.

    I'm just glad that you agree to what a joke Ritter or any other RT shill is.

    Is it? He was part of the UN inspections in the Iraqi WMD program, and subsequently was opposed against the war on Iraq. He got replaced and later the troubles arose that the US planted CIA spies at the UN inspections, the Iraqi's knew and subsequently did not allow the UN inspections to be held in the personal offices of Saddam. The US used that to make up that Iraq is not complying with the abuse, I mean.. the "WMD inspections". The Washingtonpost ratted that out some years later, the US admitted to it.

    Ritter has contributed to the story of the illegal CIA activities held by abusing the UN in Iraq. And so he's somebody. That you might dislike to even hate his role in it, is rather irrelevant.

    Compared to that, the Russian is just a nobody.
    And he's tuning the fiddle to whatever ends up paying the bills.

    Ritter is paid to make American hit pieces for Russian times. He's about as credible as CNN or any other bias media outlet.

    He knows who feeds him.

    He's been that way for 20 years and his predictions are more miss then hit.

    Oh and he's a pedophile. Which obviously has nothing to do with his military opinions but only highlights that he's a garbage human being

    The unfortunate thing about this is, is that Washington Post ratted out what the CIA was up to, and the US has admitted to this.
    So you can say all you want about the hand that feeds, but the other expression is that even a broken clock has it right twice a day.

    Yeah yeah. That makes him human garbage, but on the other hand his pedophile is not something that could affect how he preformed at his job.
    He was searching for WMD's, not for choirboys.

    You want a laugh, go watch his early opinions and outlook of the war in Ukraine.

    You'll get such hot takes as "there is talk that Russia would aquire the aid of militia groups like the Wagner to assist them in this conflict, I can personally attest that the Russian military are honorable and would never fight side by side with any militia group..."

    Meanwhile;

    Like I said. Scott's narratives leave much to be desired as he makes bias OPINION hit pieces for Russian Times for it's users like some posters on these forums to jerk off too.

    Oh and he's a garbage human being.

    Russia needs to find shills that are not garbage human beings to parrot their narratives. Might help some.

    He's been wrong numerous times....and has poor judgment. He's clearly miscalculated his opinions on this war.

    Not only is he a pervert....but a dumb one at it also.

    "Karakulov was an officer in President Vladimir Putin’s secretive elite personal security service — one of the few Russians to flee and go public who have rank, as well as knowledge of intimate details of Putin’s life and potentially classified information."

    Wasn't "JUST and engineer".

    Russia is on the verge of disarray. Let's not pretend that Elites didn't just have a phone call declaring they need to sell everything and move to Dubai.

    His opinion about the CIA spies planted in the UN to spy on Saddam under the guise of WMD searches, got confirmed by the Washington Post and the US government.

    He was right about the US planting CIA spies in the UN to under the guise of looking for WMD's, tried to reach Saddam's personal offices. Iraq called the UN/US out on it, and that got spinnend in Iraq not cooperating with "inspections" with a war as result in the end. That could be a rather well starting point for people hating him.

    Heck. People still think Saddam had WMD's these days because GOP politicians said so.

    He was. Read the freaking OP.
    And your source: LONDON (AP) — On Oct. 14, a Russian engineer named Gleb Karakulov



    You think Putin discussed his policies with an engineer? lol

    I think as someone who works and is hand picked into that select sphere that he would be privy to either over hearing, reading **** or noticing stuff that a regular old engineer wouldn't.

    Hence the part I highlighted.
