In Putin's Pocket

In this picture: Geert Wilders, leader of Dutch far right 'Party for Freedom' and proud friend of Russia in talks with Volodomyr Zelenskyy, leader of a country under attack from a dictator. One whose 'three day plan' to conquer a sovereign nation is underway for three years now. 

Best caption wins eternal fame for a day!

For those who adore 'strong man' Putin and his Russia, read this piece (https://buff.ly/4fytijj) on life in Russia and you may want to reconsider how great that country really is. 

What I find interesting: how come modern day Republicans would fight with those under Reagan on communism: a few decades ago, conservatives hated communism, now they adore Russia, the communist nation per excellence.  

Russia has an interesting relationship with the USA. And especially with the new president, Donald Trump: Vladimir Putin found out Donald Trump is an untrustworthy business partner (no one told him, apparently) and did not congratulate the new president of the US personally. Perhaps Putin is crying for his mommy because the USA (Democrats as well as Republicans) openly supports Israel? While - as this piece was written - a Russian warship is at the coast of Iran, threatening to attack Israel. 

Wappies who supported both Russia and Israel three years ago, now Putin and Netanyahu threaten to attack eachother, which side do you support?

Both Netanyahu and Putin support Donald Trump. Because he will make sure the billions of dollars in weapons trade will make both Netanyahu as well as Putin personally richer than they already are. 

Do you think it's okay if a country's leader profits from the wars that country is waging at the cost of the lives of millions of civilians?
