You think Putin blew up his own lines. To what end? What does it serve him?

I do. You are assuming that Putin is sane and what he does is rational.

He's way past what does it serve him - he's just trying to stay alive and brinksmanship is the only card he has left to play - he's a cornered rat

No. Just thought was a funny meme.

How do you explain Biden saying ‘we would bring an end to Nordstream II’ if Russia invaded?

Here’s a decent update. The decisions Putin is making are of course based in control and self preservation. Russians over 50ish years old are facing isolation, authoritarianism, and economic hardship for the rest of their lives.

Oh no. You've decided to go with Putin and were asked first. Let's hear your reasoning, or is it simply, "he's crazy"?

Threatening nuclear war because Ukraine might take back territory that you illegally annexed is crazy.

It's a matter of when not if for Putin to be offed by one of his subordinates.

What does that have to do with blowing up your own pipeline? It's a non sequitur.

What is crazy is Tony Blinken saying that blowing up the pipelines doesn't benefit anyone and then in the same breath saying it will benefit the US greatly.

It shows he's crazy.

Why are you so heavily invested in defending/deflecting for Putin and the Russians?
