Granted, T is no H, but he follows the same playbook to power. Trump has enough hubris to want this to happen, even if others are orchestrating the moves. Quashing those that demonstrate, we are watching and living an authoritarian regime in the making. People will rise up; martial law is next?
Simon says: "No post-revolution Russian rulers have sought to invade western Europe." That because Western Europe is defined as the bit Russia didn't invade.
1/ Whether Putin is a new Hitler or not is just a discussion that can be used for the entertainment of a Western audience, who else care about that! But it is a fact that Putin has changed the course of the world during his time as the President of Russia starting in 2000. Immediately before that
2/ time from the late 90s, the course of the world had been predicted in Brzezinski's "The Grand Chessboard", where the USA was portrayed as the unique world power of the future. President Putin has completely ruined that image and the Western-oriented
3/ countries hate him for destroying their efforts to dictate the world order after the collapse of the Soviet Union, which was proclaimed as a victory for the Western world order and the irresistible driving force.
"Keir Starmer has said we face the greatest threat to our national security since the cold war. Such hyperbole helps nobody, says Guardian columnist Simon Jenkins"
Hey Guardian, who does Simon Jenkins pointless nitpicking help? Putin. In other words STFU.
You could also say the Ukrainians stopped him becoming Hitler, because if he had succeeded in taking all Ukraine, those mobile crematoriums wouldn’t have been enough.
Knowing Russia, it’s far worse than it’s being reported. No reported is brave enough to do real reporting and investigation. Why? Because no one will believe her.
Pukin is ideological liar, committed a lot of crimes and hostilities in russia even before starting aggression into UA.
So he is not better than Hitler, imho.
Also, pukin did a lot copy-paste from hitler actions and philosophy, his "think tanks" like dugin/etc are pure rashist nazi scam
It is precisely because of NATO and the Warsaw Pact countries joining NATO that Putin hasn't tried to invade neighbouring countries. Finland and Sweden have recently joined NATO, and who can blame them?
Jenkins so much wishes that we should leave poor Mr Putin alone because he's a nice guy really. Jenkins was saying 3 years ago that Ukraine couldn't defend itself and Kyiv would fall.
Sorry to disappoint you, Mr Jenkins, but the Kremlin has many times over threatened to invade the Baltic countries as well as Poland, believing them to be the 'property' of Russia. Putin, rather idiotically, wants the return of the old Soviet union. Hitler? Putin has the same genocidal impulses.
If Putin's Russia is the greatest threat to the UK since the cold war then why has Starmer just reinforced the UK's partnership with Putin's new best friend? Starmer was found out on day 1 of being without intellect, nous or a backbone. This is just a classic play of a woeful, failed leadership.
Simon Jenkins had a choice when he sat down to write this column. He could write about Trump's disgusting assault on established norms and alliances. Or he could pick a nit with Trump's critics.
Putin's Putin. Evil trespassing humanity. Not only that, though. He's actually the biggest threat to ever face Russia in its entire fucking history. Whatever the costs, including [MAD], it never wins. Consistent with standard Russian protocol, he needs to be tossed out of a window or poisoned. Fact.
How the hell is it "hyperbole" to say Russia now is the biggest security threat to the UK since 1990? What threats since then have been bigger? A few random Al-Qaeda types blowing themselves up? Please.
You folks should seriously reconsider hiring this guy to write things for you. I mean, he's batting a thousand here... no wait, word is that in this case that's batting zero, not a thousand.

They would rather eliminate their opposition than negotiate. Dems still learning that lol
While we’re at it, Trump isn’t Chamberlain. He’s much more like Quisling.

We all know they have the intel that can crush trump for good. Start making it public!
- No, because the butterfly effect
At your nearby VR/AR movie theater some years from now
That's something I guess.

And this DF seems to believe that this is somehow
(i) insightful
(ii) less threatening
He chose to nitpick.
Is it now the media's mandate to warm people up to the KGB?
What the fuck?
