The thing about his insanity FROM MY POINT OF VIEW AND FROM PERSPECTIVE OF SOMEONE WHO MET ALL THIS PEOPLE is that people(ROMANOV COUSINS) on whom "West" hopes for will be installed upon his fall are indifferent from Putin. They too will seek war on Ukraine(its what they claimed me)...insanity(security of entire Europe/world and existence of Ukraine) of "Putin" is hiding behind walls of Buckingham palace in London. Lindsey Graham's talk is a regular deception of the public and those who should take sober decisions in consideration ON TIME !!!
LINDSEY GRAHAM IS RATHER SICKENING PEOPLE WITH WHAT ONE CLEARLY KNOWS ARE TOTALLY INSANE GESTURES(road to nowhere also approved from Putin personally) TO PUBLIC BUYING PUTIN NOTHING OTHER THAN TIME....HOW COME GRAHAM IS AFRAID OF PUSHING FORWARD MILITARY SUPPORT FOR UKRAINE ON UKRAINIAN TERRITORY !!???? IT WOULD BE MUCH MORE REALISTIC NO !!???

The subject is
Putin’s brain.Is President Putin clinically insane? Is he
unanswerable. There is a data point, however:
Russian and German scientists at Moscow’s aptly named Research Institute of the Brain
in 1925 sliced and diced 30,953 sections of
Vladimir Lenin’s cytoarchitecture for indications of genius.
The results of that research remain a mystery, as does a solution to the enigma of whether
the heir to Lenin’s throne—one Vladimir
Putin—believes his own hype or is experiencing buyer’s remorse over
Russia on the U.S. National Security Council during the
Trump administration, did a splendid job of purifying Putin’s sense and sensibility in a
recent interview. “Putin is increasingly operating
the Russian Imperium. We’re treading back through
old historical patterns that we said that we would never permit to happen again.”
Rewind about 150 years and you will hear a familiar refrain from Russia’s imperial Romanov
family, who spent 300 years brutally persuading
their subjects to back endless wars. “If the West is cursing Russia, Russia is doing something
right,” blustered the multi-titled Emperor of
Russia, King of Congress Poland, and Grand Duke of Finland.
To be sure, you really had to be in the audience to feel the full force of tub-thumping late-19th-century Tsar
Alexander III’s patriotic call to
arms but Alexander Romanov is widely believed to be Putin’s favorite tsar. His father—Alexander
II—was assassinated in 1881. A group
of young people hurled three bombs at him (without the assistance of TikTok). The Bolsheviks
in 1918 murdered the last of the Romanov
thoroughbreds in a cellar. The Soviets followed with 69 years of great expectations. The happy
drunk and baptized Russian Orthodox
Christian Boris Yeltsin became the star of the show in
1991, until Putin took over in 2000.
Still, for the casual visitor, Russia’s memory lane never stretched much further than the gift
shop at the Hermitage Museum.
Once upon a time in Moscow, Red Square was an open air market built atop a pavement of
logs laid down to cover the mud and keep the tsar’s
boots clean and the patriarch’s robe sparkling when they strolled out of the Kremlin. That is
the level of reverence Putin has spent the past 22 years resurrecting on state-controlled television
for his isolated home audience of 146 million Russian souls.
“Russian politicians excel in making people everywhere believe in things which are not real,” Vladimir
Yerofeyev once explained over dinner during
my years as a correspondent in Moscow. Yerofeyev should know. He was Joseph Stalin’s
translator and no slouch when it came to triggering the
trickery Russian leaders use to rally public support to exorcise Western criticism.
The Imperial Kremlin has two masters, one temporal, the other spiritual. The tsar and the Russian
Patriarch of All Moscow and All Rus. The
tsar and his hierophant-in-chief worked and lived and ruled in tandem. “There’s no difference
between the secular realm and the spiritual
realm,” explains the Byzantine and Russian historian Henry Hopwood-Phillips. “The tsar and the
patriarch are meant to occupy the same
body and the same mystical mind. That’s the anvil of Russia’s domestic Byzantine statecraft.”
And Putin’s hammer is wielded by God.
“Let God save the Russian soil,” Putin’s Patriarch Kirill earlier this week on TV told his flock of
90 million devout parishioners. “When
I say Russian, I use an ancient expression from the chronicles of where Russian soil started,
which includes the Ukraine and Belarus. God
forbid,” Kirill
thundered, “that the evil forces that have always fought against the unity of Russia and the
Russian church get the upper hand in brotherly Ukraine.”
Kirill’s frequent pronouncements in support of Putin’s destruction of Ukraine are not gibberish
and, for more Russians than many in
the West might want to believe, it’s not lunacy. According to a Feb. 27 poll conducted by
Obshestvennoemnenie, 71 percent of
the 1,500 respondents said
Putin is “working his post rather well” and that they “generally trust him.” Indeed, Russia’s
incarcerated opposition leader Alexei
Navalny, in a message
recently smuggled out of his jail cell, raged against Putin’s primitive melding of the secular
and the spiritual to retain miraculous power.
“I will not remain silent watching pseudo-historical nonsense about the events of 100 years ago
become an excuse for Russians to
kill Ukrainians,” Navalny pleaded. “Let us not become a nation of frightened silent people. Of
cowards who pretend not to notice the
aggressive war against
Ukraine unleashed by our obviously insane czar.”
He is desperately trying to recapture a romanticized heyday.
“Putin looks to be suffering deep melancholy,” reckons Hopwood-Phillips. “His consciousness is
still floating in the 17th century, and 44
