Whisper It Gently, Putin Has Begun To Unravel Spectacularly

And It’s happening right before our eyes….

If all you knew about the wider world was listening to Tucker Carlson, Nigel Farrage or reading my esteemed colleague here whose article was completely off the mark, you would absolutely believe that Vladimir Putin was on the brink of a remarkable victory; akin to the sort of wins that Adolf Hitler racked up in 1939–40, when he took France, Belgium, Norway, Holland, Poland, Czechoslovakia and Romania.

But no such thing has happened.

In my previous post, I captured the views of a Russian whistle blower, who was prepared to stick out his neck and point out that his country was losing the war in a way that no one thought possible.

And the unthinkable happened a few days ago.

Putin went on air to launch a tirade against all of his enemies — real or imagined — threatening reprisals against those who have betrayed the country, in its quest for glory.

In this same speech, our man spoke of the looming economic difficulties engendered by the biting sanctions; of an impending rise in inflation and unemployment and much tougher times ahead for the Russian people.
