The sudden Hamas attack on Israel is timed to benefit Putin, a Hamas ally.
The subsequent Iranian (Houthi) attacks on civilian ships also benefit Putin by distracting the U.S.
The sudden North Korean threats and soft-launches benefit Putin in the same way.
The sudden increased Venezuelan aggression on Guyana is also very obviously at the direction of Putin to distract the U.S.
U.S. Republicans (proven Putin allies) forced a halt to funding for Ukraine yet insist on increased funding for the other foreign distractions. This is very obviously at the direction of Putin.
And now, here we are. Putin allies all around the world, synced up in their efforts to overwork the U.S. and distract from Ukraine.
The west's efforts should be focused on calling Putin's nuclear bluff and threatening Moscow directly. His 70-year-old nuclear stockpile has been "maintained" by the same black-market scavengers as the rest of his ancient, dysfunctional military equipment.
Call Putin's nuclear bluff and his house of cards will collapse. He has no functional nukes. Call his bluff and end all of this bullshit.
