Which brings me to a final possible course of action — perhaps the most outlandish. Many would say Putin’s assassination of Navalny, killings of other opponents and his warmongering have all made him a legitimate target himself.

To put it plainly: Is it time to help Ukraine assassinate the Russian dictator?

Kyiv’s drone attacks on Moscow buildings last year showed President Zelensky is prepared to pinpoint targets within the Russian government complex. It’s reasonable to assume that, if it’s possible for a crack team of his assassins to take out their country’s tormentor, they will attempt it.

Russia has not yet responded. But how long can this happen? During war, unilateral restraint usually weakens and is sooner or later abandoned.

Biden called Putin a “crazy son of a bitch.” What does it mean?

1. The demonization of Putin will increase in connection with the elections. Western politicians decided not to recognize Putin as the legitimate president of Russia at all. And on this basis, refuse to negotiate with him and demand that other countries also refuse to negotiate.

2. And of course, these rudenesses are a sign of Biden’s progressive senile dementia. And this may strengthen the desire of many to remove Biden from the election. Too risky. The man clearly does not fully control himself.
