Russian President Vladimir Putin has revealed he planned the annexation of Crimea four days before unidentified gunmen appeared in the region.
Crimea was formally absorbed on 18 March, to international condemnation.
Russia denied instigating the revolt against Ukraine, but in a forthcoming film, Mr Putin says he ordered work on "returning Crimea to Russia" at an all-night meeting in February.
The talks were called to plan the rescue of Ukraine's deposed president.
A trailer for the documentary was shown on state-run television Sunday night though a release date has not been confirmed.
Mr Putin is seen describing the meeting, held during the night of 22 and 23 February, with the heads of Russia's special services as well as its defence ministry.
"I invited the leaders of our special services and the defence ministry to the Kremlin and set them the task of saving the life of the president of Ukraine [Viktor Yanukovych], who would simply have been liquidated," Mr Putin says.
"We finished about seven in the morning. When we were parting, I told all my colleagues, 'We are forced to begin the work to bring Crimea back into Russia'."

Putin:
"I had nothing to do with the takeover of Crimea."
"I had nothing to do with the takeover of Crimea."
"I had nothing to do with the takeover of Crimea."
"I had nothing to do with the takeover of Crimea."
"I told my government to take over Crimea, and here's the documentary to prove it."
Wonder when the documentary on Russia's shootdown of MH17 will be coming out.

Get ready for our two Russian spin doctors. First they will have to look to Russia for their talking points and then they will relay them to us.

Maybe they are taking advantage of the cease fire to reload? Or the transpacific cable is down.
Serious mental gymnastics requires serious prep time. And the Putin-love twins need to make some twisty brain pretzels to fit this little thing into their fantasies LOL!

What ever they chose to do it will include a flat out denial they lied or mislead anyone. They will ask for cites and then twist the replies all to hell. In no time at all they will be citing the same bullshit sources they always cite and it will be more of the same for all that converse with them. It should be apparent by now to even the dimmest of the dim who read their posts here, their reality is twisted, manipulative and serves to further Putin's and their agenda while attacking in any form they can those who oppose them.
I seem to recall someone who used to post here pointing this out about theses two ladies till he decided not to bother anymore. This was before I actually joined the site. I can't remember who that was but he called it right. It appears he no longer posts here.

Many people have left this site, and most of them not because of Siggy. She used to be quite sane, if a bit pompous.
In fact, her new insanity was something she started purposely. She changed suddenly some time ago, about the time you joined maybe. I called her on it and she admitted that she was doing things "differently." Didn't give details, but I figure that, for some reason, she had to give up her old shtick of tweaking Rap's tail. She did that for years and years and years on end. Same shit every thread.
Her new thing is more fun, imho, though only in small doses. ;)
ETA - I check in here so rarely that I forget who's who. Went back to your start THGGR - I forgot that you're totally a troll! That's so entertaining!
Carry on.

Now I remember thanks , it was Miker. I reposted one of his old posts about how you operate because, out of nowhere you started with me. I had followed your signature back to a thread you started and saw where this guy had ripped you a new asshole, and my reposting it shut you down in an instant. As I remember it, when I did you began to rant about everybody and everything and left this site in a huff swearing never to return. I remember this guy battling with other trolls on these threads as well. Funny you should use the term troll to describe me in this thread. But hey, that's what fuck ups like you do. When you decided to return I left it alone so you could start fresh but here you go again, for no apparent reason starting with me. This guy Miker really had you pegged.
Any of this ring a bell 
What follows is Miker ripping you a new ass.
Hey MAL4PREZ:
Mistakes do happen but not this time. When I did mistake your post for being hostel towards me, (the other post) you could have just pointed it out. After all you did recognize it as being a mistake and not directed at you? It does get a little confusing all these posts and all. So why did you respond the way you did????
I see with you, it is self praise your into. I love reading how you have my personality figured out. How you are so hip to me. So, your the groups psychoanalyst. I have enjoyed watching you slink in and out of conversations. Reappearing long enough to school the rest of us on our delusions or ignorance as perceived by you, only to disappear again. A bit of a narcissist huh.

"Again I can do nothing but point and laugh. I have not argued with "Miker" before tonight. On purpose. To flush you out".
This is a quote from you and appears to me to be narcissistic and even sadistic behavior. What do you think, your the expert?
Quote:

"Sig undergoes an extreme change in personality after I poke her/it about her years-old symbiosis with Rap".
Another quote from you. You're so hip to us all. Yep, the psychoanalyst. I love the way you explain to the other participants in the thread what you are up to and how you have proceeded so brilliantly, because with you, that's what its really about is it not?
Which is why you have this link in your signature:
http://fireflyfans.net/mthread.aspx?bid=18&tid=57532
"Peer-reviewed scientific paper: Internet Trolls are Narcissistic, Machiavellian, psychopathic, and sadistic".
Yeah, you have to show all how you are so brilliant and can stalk your victim coming in for the kill with your super wit to expose our psychosis. You pick something here someone said and pick something there someone said, because really, offering some new insight into the discussion is not what you are about. Coming to the rescue is. Trying to be everyone's champion is. After the setup of pretending to offer some new truth( which is usually little more than something you have cut and pasted ), you character assonate the one you have picked for that particular performance.
"Trolls are Narcissistic", and judging from what you have written in the posts I am responding to, I would say that title fits you just fine.
Your problem is, you have no arrows in you quiver.
Nope, not impressed at all.

That quote is pretty sadistic don't ya think? Both narcissistic and sadistic. Quite a combo.
My turn to flush you out. How do you like it? I waited for you to respond to this post in the other thread, but like I say above in this post, your style is to post and run, in and out. Your little quote here is just a small part of the smart ass posts about me in the other thread. Now this post will show up every time you send someone hear with your signature. You want to play, OK.
Like Miker says, you want to pla

“It was the night of the 22nd,” Putin told Rossiya One’s Andrey Kondrashov. “We were done by 7 am. And I won't conceal it, when we were saying goodbye, I told my colleagues – there were four of them – that the situation in Ukraine has evolved in such a way that we have to start work on returning Crimea to being a part of Russia. We couldn't abandon the territory and people who live there, couldn't just throw them under this nationalist bulldozer.”
Very different 'quotes'. You'd think that if someone is being electronically recorded and there's no ambiguity about what might have been heard or remembered, a simple quote would be the easiest things to get right.

Putin gives his interviews in English now?
Difference probably derives from differing translations from Russian - the BBC's vs. your's which appears to be from RT.
Guess it depends on who you believe is more likely to spin it, BBC or RT.

Ha! Yep. You want to dance so bad Thug! Desperate for it. You could tell I'd forgotten your roots and was treating you like a normal poster, so you had to refer to "that guy who left." You just had to poke at it. Either you wanted me to remember what you are so you could get me to dance, or you wanted to gloat over how I didn't remember.
And yeah, bring Miker back. The one who deleted all his posts like a whiny scared little sock. That was priceless! Even more so that he remains your hero.
As for anything else you have to say - whatever! You've been playing these games for years. I know your pattern. I will mock you all I want, whenever I want. But nothing you can say will be taken personally by me. I know what you are, and you have no idea who I am. You try so hard to push my buttons but, as usual, you thoroughly fail.
Again - carry on. Sorry for the hijack. :)

Oh God, she's quoting RT as an authoritative source again...
I see no contradiction between the quotes; why can they not simply be two separate statements Putin made?
It's not personal. It's just war.
