There's intercepted calls showing how the soldiers on the front line are bricking it. There's also Putin making more nuclear threats, generally a sign that Russia is scared of something, then there's Russia digging trenches on the beaches in Crimea, Russians leaving Crimea like never before and Wagner digging fortifications pretty much from Sieverodonetsk down to Donetsk. It reeks of desperation from an army that's supposed to be the better of the two. There should be enough Leo 2's/Challenger 2's and Bradley/Marders for a pretty wide offensive action somewhere, though I guess where is anyone's guess - and this is likely what scares Russia. From what I gather, most countries have delivered their pledged Leo2's, which should leave UA with around 50 or so now. These alone should scare Russia.

Genie Posted April 18, 2023 Share Posted April 18, 2023 Would it be fair game for the Americans/Nato to send a rocket to Putin if they were certain of his location on Ukrainian soil? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm definitely going with body double on this one Looks like 2 different individuals to me. Outside looks like Putin, the walk, the face mannerisms etc. But the video inside(as dark as it is) Look at the mouth and face when he starts taking when sitting down in the room. The eyebrows look like Ming the Merciless in Flash Gordon. It's looks too thin to be him. And why is the video in the room shot in semi darkness if he's been wandering outside in broad daylight, obviously security wouldn't be an issue.

Perhaps body double and then video edited to make the face look more like Putin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but they just tell Ukraine where to fire and its Ukraine army who actually fires the missile from Ukranian territory. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assumed that as soon as he stepped out of the Kremlin satellites would have been tracking his moves, and then it would be just a matter of time before there was a loud bang nearby.
