Paul Craig Roberts – paulcraigroberts.org Dec 29, 2025
Reality it seems is beyond Putin’s grasp. Following today’s 91 drone attack on Putin’s residence, the Russian president quickly reaffirmed his commitment to peace negotiations.
The attempt to kill Putin occurred doing the peace negotiations and a White House report that Trump and Putin have just had a “positive” telephone conversation. Putin told Trump that there would be retaliation against Ukraine, but Putin still shows no intention of using sufficient force to bring the four year old conflict to an end. Apparently, as long as Putin can hold on to the prospect of a peaceful settlement, the conflict will continue.
Contemplate the increase in seriousness of the Western provocations each time the war widens. Not only were all of the weapons sent that the West declared would never be sent, not only were sanctions added to sanctions, not only are Russian civilians, power infrastructure, and airports subject to Ukrainian attack, but also the Russian strategic bombing fleet and now today an attack on President Putin’s life.
By failing to quickly end the conflict by force, Putin invites increasingly serious provocations. At some point, the provocations will reach a level that Putin can no longer ignore and will result in the outbreak of generalized war. This is a reckless risk to continue to take, not an act of diplomacy.
Putin’s irresolution at war has been explained as Russia’s reluctance to kill very many of their Ukrainian brothers. However, the long drawn out village by village slugfest has resulted in many times the Russian and Ukrainian casualties that would have occurred from a quick victory.
From whatever angle we view it, Putin’s conduct of the conflict is so defective that it is inexplicable. Nothing good can come of it.
i see it this way Putin did not want to use too heavy a hand and he wanted ukraine back in his fold
it was a softly soflty approach
the question is will russia still support iran ?
> By failing to quickly end the conflict by force, Putin invites increasingly serious provocations.
I see this BS everywhere. It’s even on RT. What is it you think the Russians are doing? What is it you think the Russians should be doing? They’re taking the 4 oblasts by driving out the jew pizza delivery recruits. They can’t bomb the place like the jews do everywhere else, because that would destroy the homes of the very people they’re rescuing. They can’t bomb the rest of the jewkraine like the jews do everywhere else, because that would result in the jews shouting “They’re killing everyone, let’s kill them.”
It’s easy to see the front. Just type “ukraine war map” into a jew search engine. You can see what they’re doing in “real time”.
Added to that, you can see the jew warmongering BS on jew orifices like the boy buggering corporation. They say “Putin bombed this or that”, always “forgetting” to mention things like the three car bombs in Moscow that prompted those bombs. Or “the pwoor people in kiev are freezing in the dark” whilst “forgetting” to mention the jewkrainian bombing of Russian power plants the day before.
Believe it or not, you jews actually have “rules of war” and car bombs and bombing civilians is, as you yourself state, “terrorism.”
No one with any grasp on reality would be on any side but the Russian’s. Anyone pushing the rest is jew filth.
A Sarmat Missile up Starmer’s a**hole SOLVES the “piglet” problem
I am sure Mr. Robert after being member of USA government you know what reality is. We all know how limited Putin is in grasping anything at all, war especially never mind the politics where he is hopeless.
That’s why they are winning across a whole spectrum of geopolitics, economy and war in spite of being under most extreme sanction from your government and their lackeys.
I hope he continues his lack of reality and inability to grasp a whole spectrum of issues in the foreseeable future.
Paul Roberts said: “Reality it seems is beyond Putin’s grasp.”
ROTFL! Well look who’s talking. I hate to be the bearer of bad news, Roberts, but in contrast to your embarrassing ignorance, Vladimir Putin knows exactly what’s going on.
“By failing to quickly end the conflict by force, Putin invites increasingly serious provocations.”
For the Nth time: Since the proxy war in “ukraine” is not actually about “ukraine” but is just one aspect of the ongoing hybrid war to destroy Russia, the “increasingly serious provocations” against Russia will continue regardless of what Putin does in “ukraine.” For example, if the illegitimate junta in Kiev were to surrender today, the Satanic “west” will ramp up anti-Russia provocations somewhere else, e.g. in the Baltic sea. Vladimir Putin understands this even if you don’t (or if you pretend not to understand so as to avoid having to admit that you’ve been wrong about the nature of the situation all along).
“At some point, the provocations will reach a level that Putin can no longer ignore and will result in the outbreak of generalized war.”
Exactly; and this is most likely why Russia is building up stockpiles of weapons; prioritizing the production and deployment of S500 air defense systems; refurbishing and restocking bomb shelters; etc.
“This is a reckless risk to continue to take, not an act of diplomacy.”
Nonsense; see above. It is perhaps the most logical course of action Russia could take under the circumstances.
What a load of crap! It was mentioned days ago, even on here, that there was going to be a drone attack on putins gaff. Like he’s going to sit around his house and wait for it to happen, yeah course he is. It’s all just show. The reason putins taking his time with the ukraine is merely to kill off more Slavonic males both Russian and Ukrainians plain and simple. Putins just part of the same old yid problem.
Zelensky had his chance to the Istanbul agreement .
so now he should rob back on his knees ! he
listened to much to his tribals Johnson + Satanjahu .

The longer the war goes on the more Ukrainian Goyim are slaughtered.
Is Putin participating in the clearing of the Goyim from Ukraine/Khazaria in order to prepare for the return of the Ashkenazis to their ancient homeland.
What’s inexplicable? Kill more are the orders of Putin’s jew owners.
