And while you are at it, could you please end all Wars, end all hunger, and end global climate change?

That's easy. Seconds' psychosis exists only in your mind. If you were to end yourself it too would end comrade.

Second is not well.
These are your "friends" Ted.
And for the record, Second has never once come to your defense, nor will he ever.
He gives even less a shit about you than he does about me. He's so obsessed with my life that I think he's secretly in love with me.

Bottom line is, the Russians’ expansionism is what started all this. It happened in Georgia then Ukraine. Then, because Putin was left unchecked, he tried to outright conquer Ukraine. Putin and comrade Signym will say it was NATOs expansionism that started this. What I would say to that is, NATO only goes where it is invited. Big difference, big difference. And why is NATO invited, because of the threat Russia poses to it neighbors.
This ain't rocket science folks.

What will Putin do next?
If you were Putin, what would you do? Predicting your adversary’s future moves requires putting yourself in his shoes. As Russia’s misadventure in Ukraine nears its first grim anniversary, we should ask ourselves how Putin sees the world, indeed – how we would see the world and what policy we would pursue if faced with a range of unpalatable options.
Option one. He could declare the war lost and withdraw. If I were Putin, I would not choose this option. Why? There is grave danger in admitting defeat. Russia was built on the myth of infallibility. While the hope of victory stays alive, the people will follow the Tsar. But no sooner will he back down then they will turn away from him because the Kremlin is no place for losers.
If I were Putin I’d tell myself that I am still popular. They thought they’d topple me – they don’t know our people. The Russians are afraid of uncertainty more than they are afraid of tyranny. They would readily embrace terror if I only wanted them to. You think Navalny has it bad? I’ve kept him alive, I would say, just because I can. He is allowed to share stories of his misery with the world: that’s how I show my power.
No, they won’t pour into the streets to demand my head, not unless I show weakness. That’s why I cannot back down. That’s why I annexed Kherson and Zaporizhzhia – to show them that I am all in.
I cannot accept defeat because Russia’s influence in its near abroad would collapse. My so-called allies in Central Asia and the Caucasus (who have proven so unreliable – I’ll yet pay them back for their disloyalty) are eagerly awaiting Russia’s demise. I cannot allow them such satisfaction. By contrast, I must show them that the costs of resistance are high, so they learn to respect me.
. . . Option three. Fight until we have a de facto partition of Ukraine. Time will tell how far west the line will run. At the very least, we must recapture the territories that I have already annexed. Then I can say I have accomplished my goals and proclaim victory. Do I have any incentive not to? Will the West relent on sanctions if I moderate my goals in Ukraine? They won’t. They only understand force, and only my decisive victory on the battlefield will impress them. Until then, they will jeer and cheer on the Ukrainians. Why, I would do exactly the same if I were in their shoes.
Surely the war is not lost – I would tell himself – not yet. True, we haven’t done as well we hoped but nor have we exhausted our potential. The population is docile. My partial mobilisation plugged the holes in our defence with hardly a stir among the public. I could easily mobilise ten times more. I just don’t have anything to equip them with. In time, I will. Yes, we are running low on ammunition, but we can build it up over time, while drawing on supplies from Iran and North Korea.
They tried to cripple us with sanctions, but they couldn’t. The situation is not great, I know, but I have an excellent economic team. The numbers show only a minor decline this year and economic stabilisation a year from now. Unlike Ukraine which has been devastated.
Russia is a nuclear power, and so I can’t lose. Would Hitler have used all the means at his disposal if he could avert Germany’s defeat? Yes, he would. That’s my premise, too. I will push forward, until I have no options left. With God’s help, I will win, but if don’t, I am not averse to dying in glory. We all must die someday. Why not today? Why not in the service of the Great Russian Idea? That is what they don’t understand. They think I will flinch when faced with the choice: defeat (and my humiliation, and even ouster) or the end of civilisation. Had the end of civilisation ever looked more attractive?
But civilisation does not have to end – not at all. There is a long way to go from irradiated Ukraine to a global nuclear cataclysm. They – the Americans – will have to make the choice to escalate. Will they? I doubt it. They know that I know that in the big scheme of things, Ukraine is a side show. For them, that is. Not for m

THUGR'S clock stops in 2026. That's when Putin's term as President ends. Putin will be in office long after Joe Biden*.

What would that even accomplish for you, dude?
Do you think that America and NATO are going to be able to install a puss-bag puppet like Zelensky in his place if he were to die of health issues?
No fuckin' chance. Not in Russia.
For all you know the new guy comes in and stomps Ukraine from the face of the earth the day he takes charge.
Be careful what you wish for.
