@Free_Press why are you so sure, that Prigozhin wasn't acting on Poo's behavior? In Mother Russia checkists (GRU and FSB) now just do whatever, it's like 1937 all over again. I think Putin's Cook got extra thick payment and sold all his "brothers" in arms. Also Wagner got super boost to reputation now, just what they need in Africa, where they gonna flee with Pootler

But time will show, you are right. Let bet a virtual dollar on this one, my bet is that we were played, and Putin might soon disappear (leaving double for Hague)
