As much as I am enjoying the notion of food poisoning being the cause of Putin's hopeful demise, upon reading the latest news from the Russian foreign service--claims that the Russian army is attacking a nation that is armed to the teeth, full of Nazis, and developing nuclear weapons--I must conclude that the Russian government has supplanted Russia's fertilizer industry with a massive supply of, ahem, natural fertilizer. So slipping Putin a Oie a la Depp would probably be less excrement than Putin is already used to injesting. One has to wonder whether he, in the mode of the Dread Pirate Roberts, has built up his immunity....
But seriously, the fact of the matter is that nations that are actually winning wars rarely resort to "spreading the fertilizer" in this way because they can talk about cities conquered, enemies vanquished, and the like. Especially funny is the claim that Ukraine is somehow full of Nazis, but none of them have apparently ever bothered to trash a synagogue, set up a death camp, or even steal a yarmulke from a rabbi or harass a little Jewish girl with a ham sandwich. Wimpiest Nazis ever, and Herr Schicklgruber would be appalled.
My best guess here is that they're hoping that their rhetoric will throw gullible people off the track of what they're really doing long enough to salvage half a decent agreement with Kyiv and, probably more importantly, prevent a day of reckoning with a Russian populace that may someday learn that a needless war against an innocent country has deprived their country of its economy and 22000 + of their sons.
(I am using Ukrainian numbers, yes, as they seem to be closely followed by NATO and U.S. estimates. They seem to be basically honest)
May that day of reckoning come soon for the Soviet Politburo Russian ruling class. Putin delenda est!
