Should Vladimir Putin have both of his knees shot out with a Kalashnikov rifle?
No, let's use the Italian model, piano wire, and lamp posts.
You never know you may get your wish. Soon, unless the war ends very quickly in a sweeping victory for Putin, ( note I don't say Russia, ) there will be a lot of angry people in Russia. The Russian oligarchs, who have seen fortunes wiped of their stocks, and who control the corrupt generals, a lot of angry grandmothers and grandfathers, who have lost grandchildren in a speculative and and mainly pointless foreign war, and a lot of hungry generals and politicians, whose questioning of whether Putin was really still up to the job, triggered him into trying to prove himself with a foreign adventure in the first place. Don't know who I would be most frightened of if I was in his shoes, especially if they band together. But maybe he, for all his shallow smart ass cleverness, is not quite clever enough to see real threats coming.
I hope you’re right!
