Yeah, it's been rather obvious for a while that Putin has been eliminating his opposition.

If you've followed the last election or two in Russia you've seen pretty much the same thing.

But, this new "vigilante" thing is what seems to stand out.

Hitler's SS was originally just a group of thugs that roamed the streets maintaining "order"...

After he was elected in 1933 the SS (after cleaning out the real idiots) became Hitler's personal army.

My whole point is that this is all being done for a PURPOSE....

I think he's following Hitler's playbook, which would be joke if he didn't have NUKES. But, he does have nukes...

He may be crazy enough to think he can reconstitute the USSR through conventional warfare while just holding the nukes as a hold card.

How many democratically elected world leaders would be willing to call his bluff if it could endanger the very existence of their own country?
