ANOTHER CLIFF HANGER

The Wagner mercenary army boss, Yevgeny Prigozhin, has backed down from attacking Moscow and by now should either be in or close to Belarus along with his army after making a deal with Putin that he and his mercs would not be prosecuted.

Good luck on that, I’m sure Putin has already made arrangements with assassins to get rid of him. This may prove difficult, however.

Thanks to Putin himself, Belarus now has nuclear weapons even though they probably don’t have the arming codes, but considering the sloppiness and inefficiency of the Russian government, it’s possible that the nukes may not even need arming codes, they may just be Load and Fire. But if they do, no doubt they can be hacked.

All these people are out for power, and Putin’s time is drawing to an end. So, why would Aleksandr Lukashenko, the president of Belarus welcome in a powerful, 25,000 strong army that is an enemy of Putin when he’s supposed to be such a good, trusted friend of Putin that Putin would give him nuclear weapons?

Putin’s war in Ukraine is stalemated, has been for over a year, while thousands of young Russians keep dying. Why would the people of Belarus want to take part in that? I’m sure they don’t or they would have offered to join in attacking Ukraine long before now.

Putin trusted Prigozhin. Putin trusts Lukashenko.

Does Prigozhin seek power? The Pres. of Belarus, too? Is the Pope Catholic? Does water flow downhill?

Now, suddenly, Belarus is gifted with a powerful, well armed army of 25,000 and a bunch of nuclear warheads.

As that sweet little old lady next door would say, “Oh my fucking dear”.
