Actually feel sick 15:49 - Feb 27 with 3792 views | blueasfook | The situation with Russia is escalating rapidly. I'm convinced Putin has lost the plot and is out of control. He needs to be reigned in from within. But who has the balls among the yes men that surround him? I also feel he is painting himself into a corner and is going down a road from which there is no coming back. Let's hope the talks go well this afternoon! |  |

The US has over 3500, France over 200, U.K. 150? The numbers vary depending on source, but regardless, it’s a case of mutually assured destruction given what Russia has. You have to ask what Putin is doing even talking about it. The hope in me is that he is just upping the verbal anti in particular for domestic consumption. |  | |  |

I think (well, hope anyway) it's just a form of blackmail to get what he wants. Toddler & teenage style "gimme what I want or <insert most extreme threat they can think of here> As for the inner circle/any form of restraint - you'd like to think most of these people have families, and would stay his hand and/or give him the bullet if, err Putin really came to shove-the-button-in. |  |
