jurov: so
putin should give kurils to japan too
decimation: I guess
putin isn't happy with having a 'near abroad' anymore
mircea_popescu: oh, no, it's just that
putin i mean roberts "does not understand how the world works"
BingoBoingo: There is 3 dimensional chess occuring in Europe right now between Western Europe,
Putin and the relative absence of the US. Pretty much everyone is pissed at / keeping an eye on Americans who are career US gvt. (Never fear - we were military and are now Contractors - no 3 letter agencies here...).
decimation: obviously
Putin et.al. are convinced that any western opposition is going to be weak and divided. I suspect he even has tacit approval from Germany
decimation: BingoBoingo: agreed. The same "anti-"communists now hate
Putin because he represents everything they hated about Soviet fascism. This is why usg has such an irrational policy vis-a-vie Russia
youtubetard: yea...
Putin seems to be very fond of the ole days
ryguy_`: its fun watching
putin deflect like bruce lee with a hand behind his back
pete_dushenski: iirc le
putin is banning gmo crud in his fair land, if the sanctions aren't doing it first

Putin Punks West (Again): Russian Troops Enter Ukraine, Guardian Reports | Zero Hedge
mircea_popescu: you have politics/current affairs, which are mostly a bunch of who we're calling the bad things this week,
putin "doesn't understand how the world works" for having dared to humiliate our beloved leadership bimonthly for the past year, and israelis are whatever and on and on
mircea_popescu: "Vladimir
Putin has made a complete mockery of delusional US foreign policy yet again, this time anulling in one fell swoop decades of attempts to isolate Iran by signing a 700bn ruble deal".
pete_dushenski: "Vladimir
Putin has attempted to sidestep Western sanctions on Russia’s energy sector by signing a $20bn trade deal that could see his country become the largest importer of oil from Iran."
bitcoinpete: "North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un is reportedly furious about a Chinese viral video that photoshops him into all manner of ridiculous scenarios: dancing, brawling, riding a pig, frolicking with Osama Bin Laden, and generally being made a laughingstock by Obama and
Putin."
bitcoinpete: "if we discount the pavlovian conditioning, the only conclusion is that the entire news cycle pertaining to the downing of the Malaysian airliner is orchestrated in order to lay the blame on
Putin."
mircea_popescu: lmao. so let me get this straight, if
putin v2.0 decides to visit the us, they'll know ?
thickasthieves: “The US is certainly one of the world’s leaders. At some point it seemed that it was the only leader and a uni-polar system was in place. Today it appears that is not the case. Everything in the world is interdependent and once you try to punish someone, in the end you will cut off your nose to spite your face" ~

mircea_popescu:
putin has the disadvantage of being actually stuck ruling the thing
decimation: so it would seem that
putin is also sending a message about women by caging them

Putin Advisor Proposes "Anti-Dollar Alliance" To Halt US Aggression Abroad | Zero Hedge
decimation: perhaps the fate of the US is to have a "russian 90's" and then see a
putin-like figure arise. I kinda doubt it though, because of the intense allergy us folk have to anyone telling them what to do
jurov: BingoBoingo: today the potus was in normandy on 70th anniversary, with
putin, merkel, queen elizabeth and everyone, live tv.. i thought it would be the best setup for alien strike, but sadly nothing such happened
moiety: Mats_cd03:
Putin's acceptance.
mircea_popescu: it's kinda funny tho, you know ? russia invades the ukraine, let's downvote
putin's facebook profile
decimation: at least
Putin is able to put motorcycle thugs to useful work in Ukraine
assbot:
Putin's rockin' & rollin' on a Harley Trike - YouTube
decimation: well, that seems to be working for
Putin mircea_popescu: "It is almost as if someone (a quite wealthy and powerful someone) has material interests that diverge with those of the Obama administration, and hence converge with those of
Putin. Alongside the emerging China-Russia axis, keeping tabs on just how close to Russia Germany is willing to get, is easily the most notable story in the entire Ukraine conflict."

mircea_popescu:
putin the redbeard, the norwegian rapist cum invader ?
jurov: BingoBoingo they don't necessarily favor Russia, they know well who
Putin is
BingoBoingo: The same thing that gives
Putin his good fortune enables America's golden toilets thus.
BingoBoingo:
Putin could have crimea and Eastern Ukraine because the people already favor Russia.
BingoBoingo: See this is the genius of
Putin in Crimea and the enablement of US golden toilets all rolled into one.
fluffypony: "President Vladimir
Putin on Thursday called the Internet a CIA project"
bounce: haven't really paid attention to exactly what
putin said in response to snowden, but them russkies don't appear to engage in dragnet-and-store type surveillance. they know very well who they're after and they're good at it, if not very subtle.
BingoBoingo: benkay: I'm just thinking of what
Putin is doing in Ukraine vs. Bush-Obama in the US. It's going to force a lot of soul searching at the top of the US about the essence of being a super power when mapped onto results.
mircea_popescu: "Of course we had our servicemen behind the self-defense units of Crimea,"
Putin said during an annual televised call-in with the nation on Thursday.
mircea_popescu: wonder how long before people start going "o
putin is behind this!"
mircea_popescu: fluffypony well yeah, it's sort-of like
putin's surprising resilience in spite of being declared crazy.
BingoBoingo: My hypothesis on why
Putin can't understant how the world works though is that the world just doesn't work because it has no benefit from doing so.
mircea_popescu: i guess may account for why
putin "doens't understand how the world works".
mircea_popescu: when forumanon says of mp what obama&co say of
putin, we know we're living in the best of possible worlds.
Apocalyptic: chetty, they should have picked the photo of
Putin on his bear imo
VanCleef: speaking of media propaganda the funnest ones i seen was yesterday or the day before, but all american media groups were saying
putin called obama about ukraine because
putin is weak and looking for an exit
mircea_popescu: so
putin threatens to fuck them up with the energy, quickly the propaganda brigade is out there with preparatory statements
mircea_popescu: inching along towards the "
putin doesn't give a shit about the way i think the world should work"
mircea_popescu: and in completely different yet very related news, "The problem, as the president explained it, is that
Putin doesn’t understand how the world is supposed to work"
ozbot:

putin's pr chick makes me physically hurt"
mircea_popescu: a steady stream of "
