Former Russian president says Vladimir Putin's endgame from the war on Ukraine is a Moscow-led empire 'from Vladivostok to Lisbon'

Medvedev, not Gorbachev. I think Yeltsin is dead.

#9  Bareback, or... dunno. Hypersonic?

Our Tsar, scared to death of kielbasa,
And cornered by NATO, er, TOSSER,
Will sweep to the East!
Once the Asians are policed,
He'll head west till he's dancing the bossa,
Then north to the Tijuana plaza
Or southward to brain-drain Kinshasa
And bombard the bars of Barossa!

#7  Medvedev, not Gorbachev.

The man famous as The Vegetable in a Russian joke and as Obama's go-between when the Lightbringer whispered on a hot mike, "Tell Vladimir I will have more flexibility after the election". Darth Putin should have strangled him when he had the chance.

Back when the USSR was a thing, the Red Army could not have made to Lisbon (the army army, not the hockey team). The Russians certainly could not do it now. The hysteria becomes tiresome.

#5  *raises hand*
So what would be the official position on African Migrants, specifically associated no-go zone areas and practices such as street prayers to disrupt traffic?

#4  This seems like a small step but it's actually a really big deal:

Russia Coal and Oil Paid for in Yuan Starts Heading to China
Coal cargoes to arrive this month, followed by crude in May
China has long bristled at dollar’s dominance in global trade

#1  Well, as long as it has Brussels.


Why exclude the Canary Islands? Unromantic dweeb. Probably doesn't have anyone special to conquer it for.
