Putin is like a cornered Rat - very dangerous...

[dogtag]

His war is not going well, his economy is tanking and his
own people are calling him Hitler. He may be a candidate
for the loony bin but he controls the Nukes. Would his Generals
go along with a nuke strike, or would they kick him out ?
My guess is that his days are numbered.

Putin remembers what happened to Saddam Hussain. If he fails here, he goes down for a looooon nap.

Now translate that into action. Putin has already got a war on his hands, and can't afford to lose it.
