Putin Story Over, Again

You’ve said that Putin:

• Assassinates his political opponents
• Equips and bankrolls rogue states and terrorist armies
• Cuts off Eastern Europe’s gas in a harsh winter if they don’t pay unfavourable prices
• Killed Poland’s leaders
• Blackmailed Belarus
• Annexed north Georgia
• Knows Crimea is his

You follow that with insults, calling America & Europe “a bunch of weak idiots”, singling out Obama, Merkel, and Cameron by name, then finally fuming about “breathtaking” apathy. Yet you offer no solutions of your own.

Why don’t you give specific examples of all the things you listed? Then for each one of them, talk about who the European & American leaders were at the time and what, precisely, you think it is they should have done. Should they have taken action unilaterally or in concert? If the latter, then how to get everyone on board? Who’d be in charge and take the blame if things got out of control?

If you’re not willing to do that, then this Page comes across as nothing more than a self-indulgent, petulant rant that’s entirely useless to readers.
