IS THERE A COUP UNDERWAY IN RUSSIA?

Coup to remove cancer-stricken Putin underway in Russia, Ukrainian intelligence chief says

A coup is underway to oust Russian President Vladimir Putin, who is “very sick” due to cancer, according to Ukraine’s head of military intelligence.

“It will eventually lead to the change of leadership of the Russian Federation. This process has already been launched and they are moving into that way,” Ukrainian Major Gen. Kyrylo Budanov told the UK’s Sky News in an exclusive interview.

An interviewer asked if a coup is underway, to which Budanov replied, “Yes. They are moving in this way and it is impossible to stop it.”

Putin has cancer and other ailments, he said, dismissing the suggestion that he was spreading propaganda.

The Sunday Times recently reported that Putin has blood cancer, citing an unnamed Russian oligarch with close ties to the Kremlin. And a video recently resurfaced showing Putin shaking while welcoming Belarusian leader Alexander Lukashenko in mid-February, according to The Independent, fueling speculation that the despot has Parkinson’s disease.

    Gents–form your own opinions, but–this RUSS/UKR dust-up has been one hellava PsyOps battle from the get-go. I’m no fan of Putin or Zelensky or one country invading another. BUT–

    Rumors, expert opinions, and half-truths being spread like manure on a recently tilled field. “Putin near death!” or “Zelensky in Hiding,” or “All Russian Tanks Destroyed!” or some such.

    Near as I can tell: 80% of RUSS supports Putin; it he croaks or is debilitated, someone else will fill his shoes, no? With 80% support, why would a populace and military cave when their leader tanks?

    Help me out: when in history has a nation at war “changed horses in the middle of stream with strong currents?” To me, it would make no sense. RUSS is “all in” this one–blood and treasure.

    This obsession with “time,” is something the West/UK/USA keeps harping on. It’s not addressed so much from the RUSS goal of: neutralize UKR ability to make war on RUSS (even by chem/bio weapons labs), eliminate ‘neo-Nazi units’ shelling Donbass Russians, and making UKR a “neutral area”(non-NATO.)

    Two views from “the other side.”

    I have a collection of Signsl! , the Third Reich analog to Stars and Stripes. Up until 1943 it was ok, then it went full fantasy like what we are hearing now. BTW I got from a Ukrainian years ago when I was naïvely enamored with the Nazis better than Bolshies idea. Maybe they were but God help you if they don’t like the look of you.
