That was more in response to the sending weapons. Probably should've been clearer.

Also, if the attack is coming from within, you mean him nuking Russia? I don’t see that.

As President Zelenski has pointed out it is this kind of thinking that makes them a menace to the whole of Europe. Appeasement would just kick the problem down the road for a few years.

If NATO gets involved, pushes Russia back out of Ukraine and starts making gains into Russia...

But remember what he said if anyone gets involved?

My comment was based on if Putin uses harder and harder weaponry, the Russian people (and higher ups) will ultimately turn on him. That is absolutely the best way this can end.

Yes, something about nuclear weapons blah blah blah.
Front him up. Ask him if he feels lucky.
The Chinese will soon tell the Kremlin to wind it in.

Just seen that on Sky News, not sure what that means at the moment.
Does it mean he is for or against the invasion or is it to do with the sanctions, is he buggering back off to Russia for the foreseeable future.
Chelsea will still have dirty money though, won't they.
Also just heard that Trump has opened his stupid potty mouth again, going to see what he has said this time.

Of course but that depends upon various Russian military people turning on Putin.
Problem is if they do and get rid of Putin, it's still likely they themselves will be hung out to dry by whoever finds them first

On this front, nothing has changed since the ****'s invasion. Items to help the Ukrainians were going in before.

That’s how I read it few comments online saying he has put into the charitable trust as that means it is exempt from sanctions.
The worst thing would be a failed attempt on Putin, a rerun of the July plot against Hitler

Who knows what really goes on in Putin's mind?
Until now, the official Kremlin line has been that the reason Russia is surrounded by enemies, is that the west have made it up, so my best guess is that he will continue to blame the west for him being the pariah of most of the world. None of it will be his fault. It will always be someone else's.
As far as what actions he will take, I would assume some form of escalation will follow. I'm not qualified to speculate on what detail that might contain. Having said that, I fervently hope the final answer lies with the Russian people.
Why would they be hung out to dry if they deal with him? If they realise it’s the end of Russia, they very likely will turn on him.
Not sure it matters whether he is for or against the invasion as he is in bed with Putin. If he is against it, he isn't going to say. I suspect most Russians will be against it but most Russians won't speak out!
