Putin posted:

“I have known Prigozhin for a long time, from the beginning of the 1990s,” Putin said of his former caterer. “He was a man with a complex fate. [Sometimes] he made mistakes; and [sometimes] he got the results he wanted — for himself and in response to my requests, for a common cause.”

*As the plane spins like a leaf on the wind and on fire, Priggy has inner turmoil with hinself*

We had a good thing, you stupid son of a bitch! We had Wagner. We had the Sahel. We had everything we needed, and it all ran like clockwork. You could've shut your mouth, raged on Telegram and made as much money as you ever needed. It was perfect. But, no, you just had to blow it up. You and your pride and your ego! You just had to be the man. If you'd done your job, known your place, we'd all be fine right now.

It'd be really funny if Putin actually didn't do this and the Wagner coup was an op and they were actually close friends. And now Putin can't deny that he murdered his beloved friend, because otherwise he'll look weak and they could lose everything him and Prigozhin were fighting for.

Putin, crying, watching the "Putin harden your heart" song for the 10th time as he prepares to pretend that he killed his closest friend...

Pentagon says it wasn't a shootdown, so my head canon is Putin letting Priggy off and was looking forward to meeting him again only for the plane to just fall apart, despite the safety record of that model. Now everyone sees him as an ice cold psychopath... more so.

I think the official story is that the plane was leaving Moscow and going to St. Petersburg when it crashed.

unless the bomb was planted in/on the wing i fail to see how the plane could have remained so together

though it would be extremely funny if this was just another TWA 800 and a mid-air lightening strike caused a nearly empty wing tank to explode

quote:

We have to look at what those civilian casualties are- just because they're civilian doesn't make them innocent! Lets take a look at a few possibilities:

1) A civilian walking down the street to market gets killed by a cruise missile fired at the market.

2) A civilian asleep in their house is killed when their house is targetting by a smart bomb and blown up.

OK, these two are regrettable innocents being killed- but since the US doesn't make a habit of targetting markets or houses, they're very small in number!

3) A civilian working at a chemical weapon factory gets killed when the chemical weapon plant is bombed.

4) A civilian security guard at a weapons depot is killed when the weapons explode.

5) A civilian contractor repairing a tank is killed by a MOAB dropped on the unit.

6) A civilian engineer is killed when the military command center he works at is destroyed.

7) A civilian delivering snackiecakes to the baghdad bunker vending machines eats a 5,000lb bunker buster.

etc, etc. The list goes on. My point is that there are a lot of civilians directly supporting the military that aren't exactly "innocent" and would be mire rightly counted among the military casualties than civilian. I'm a civilian and work for the US military, but I acknowledge I'm also a valid military target because of what I do. And I think the vast majority of civilian casualties in this campaign will not be innocent.
