If that ever happened (Putin being elected in a "democratic" setting), I'll run the length of Western Road
in soiled underpants shouting "yes, we have no bananas"!
Indeed. When I watch the news, almost all elderly people (well a high percentage) love Putin because they've
been fed his bullsh*t propaganda for 20 years and look back at the 70s and 80s with a perverted sort of fondness. While that mentality persists, things I don't think will change...
Actually Bobbers - I laugh at your usual post on this because it is quite funny, but
tonight it really could be "season defining". I want to beat that scum more than anything.
I think we're not far off a tipping point with the war where Putin's authority will to be undermined when the
new military hardware starts coming along for the West. A stark realisation that the war cannot be won. A desperate search for a way out.
I hope I'm right.
Also, Putin didn't suddenly wake up one day and think "wouldn't it be nice to have all those countries back under our control - let's invade one". It's his long-held belief. So your argument falls down a bit there too.
Which just goes to show how moronic in so many senses industry people are. Perhaps when we observe how utterly sh*te Sugar's BBC Apprentice candidates are, they actually fit the mould.
