Putin can't back out, so the only option is to totally destroy him – William Browder

164,198 views Oct 22, 2022 William Browder, CEO of Hermitage Capital Management and Head of the Global Magnitsky Justice Campaign, in an exclusive interview with our TV channel told about his book ‘Putin's number one enemy’. However, author said that now Volodymyr Zelenskyy is Putin's number one enemy. According to William Browder, Putin made calculations on reward for himself. The reward was elevated approval ratings and safety. So he started the war against Ukraine. And he ended up being wrong. And the trouble is that now he can't back out, author said. The only option is total to totally destroy him, William Bowder underlined.

I guess we will just have make things so bad in Russia that the Russians will have to kill Vlad or remove him from power. If not, they are gonna be living in the fucking stone age soon and be slaughtered by the million in Ukraine or on its borders. Airpower will be employed to kill them by the trainload eventually, until someone is convinced it is easier and less risk to kill Vlad or the Russian security services than Ukrainians.

in Irkutsk, a fighter fell on a residential building
A military plane crashed on a two-story house in Irkutsk. This was reported by the telegram channel 112. Previously, the Su-30 fighter took off from the aircraft factory and crashed in the Novo-Lenino microdistrict. Information about the dead has not yet been received.


Comment on the same story but different article.

"Flight tests were carried out over Irkutsk-2 - two SU-30SM aircraft flew. One sat down, the second continued to fly, did not get in touch for 20 minutes. The second aircraft took to the air and approached the aircraft that did not make contact. The pilots saw that the crew was sitting with their heads hanging down - presumably, suffocated. When the fuel ran out, the plane crashed near Novo-Lenino. The crew died. There were no casualties in the fall of the Su-30 on a residential building. Three children managed to be evacuated from a private house, where the board collapsed."

Ukraine is preparing to use a "dirty bomb" against civilians
Ukraine is preparing to use a nuclear "dirty bomb" against the civilian population in order to accuse Russia of using weapons of mass destruction. It is reported by RIA Novosti with reference to various sources, including in Ukraine.

“The Kyiv regime is preparing a provocation on the territory of its country related to the detonation of the so-called “dirty bomb” or a low-yield nuclear weapon. The purpose of the provocation is to accuse Russia of using weapons of mass destruction in the Ukrainian theater of operations, and thereby launch a powerful anti-Russian campaign in the world,” writes RIA Novosti.

According to the agency, the task of making the bomb was assigned to the Kyiv Institute for Nuclear Research. Ukraine intends to obtain the components necessary for manufacturing from the UK. On behalf of President Volodymyr Zelensky, these negotiations are carried out by people from his inner circle.

Vlad will need to stamp this shit out fast, because it can spread fast with the internet and cellphones. Tuva is a small Russian republic in the far east that borders with China and the people are mostly ethnic Asian. China might be a better deal for them than Russia and could support them as an independent republic economically and militarily.

Taking out a few rail and road bridges along 2000km of rail line and highway would isolate European Russia from the entire east of the country and several republics. They don't have much of an air transport network left and cars can be parked on runways to block landing troop transports. It would make opting for independence and joining China in trade and cooperation agreements very attractive, as is happening further west in oil rich southwestern Asia. The bear is weak and getting weaker as he is trapped and blead to death in Ukraine and the wolves are gathering for the fat feast.


Russian mobilised soldiers stage mutiny and hit back at Putin

2,113,454 views Oct 22, 2022 Dozens of mobilised soldiers have staged an extraordinary mutiny telling how they have no respect for the authorities in Vladimir Putin’s Russia.

A uniformed spokesman for the men is applauded by conscripts after he threatened the people should topple their rulers over the war in Ukraine. He berates an unseen commander or top official over the threats faced by conscripts called to war by the Kremlin dictator.

The unnamed reservist mocks a policy in his region - the Tuva republic in Siberia - to gift a ram to each family of those mobilised. He says there are not enough walkie-talkies and no adequate socks for the men who have been in training ahead of being sent 3,200 miles to fight for Putin.

They would be independent countries, with support and economic ties to China, which in today's world is really close by rail, and have little connection to Moscow. China wouldn't grab territory, it would use its soft power in an internationally acceptable way, the economic benefits would be the same in the end.

I think that is going far out onto a thin limb.

China might start off using it's "soft power" but russia isn't going to sit still and allow that, so they would be forced to smack russia down, which brings us back to the whole "existential threat" pile of horseshit...and that would surely be a lot closer to a real existential threat than Ukraine bloodying their nose on a daily basis

China did offer security assurances to Kazakhstan which borders them and the Caspian Sea and is rich in oil and gas. They were recently speaking out against Putin's war and asserting their independence from Moscow, so were other central Asian countries. The infection could spread from neighbors to internal republics, Russia is still an18th and 19th century empire, not really a federation and it is about to undergo a lot of military political and economic stress.
