The Russian has never done it, making sure he is always wronged.

(brutal, complex ridden, waving ICBMs, naturally)

So huge��military parades an absolute must.

Putin, owner of primitive impulses, is addicted to pride, in fact he has it for sale,

a dealer, getting everyone at home hooked on it. Too bad he���s un-addicted to truth,

for on one end national pride is a convenient��weapon, but on the other a tool of

manipulated tyranny over its own people, with disavowal often considered treason

and��punishable by liquidation.

By the way, Mr Putin, Russia is not under any threat, NATO not there��to attack

anyone,��but invited in to protect small nations that for 60 years were forced to live

in your hell,��and saying ���Never Again���.

Is that so hard to understand? What would you do, had you been born in Warsaw or Prague?

Anyway, we all know that��exaggerated patriotism is the expression of a fundamental lack of individual self-esteem.

And of course the last refuge of the scoundrel.
