Sochi Olympics: looming disaster or what?

Post by seeahill »

I have a chance to go for a few days since I'll be in the neighborhood at the time.

Think I'll pass.

Good idea. Putin doesn't want your kind there.
Obama's narcissism and arrogance is only superseded by his naivete and stupidity.

If the Rags pull anything, the World will get a hard lesson on how these savages should be delt with by all civilized nations, as brutally and as uncivilized as fucking possible.

Dead fucking paedophile worshippers full of 5.45 holes, with their hands chopped off and bacon shoved up their ass, filmed for broadcast on Al-Jazeera.

Putin is not a bitch like Obama and he is all about Russia after himself.

I'd bet the farm there is a lot of new guest at the former Leftrova prison right now, getting things done to them that would make all the faggot assed waterboarding arguments of the Bush years look like arguing over being ticked.

Yeaaaaahhh, if they decide to spoil Putin's Olympics they're in for a harsh surprise, me thinks.

Russians haven't been too kind to enemies, typically.

It's also a semi-tropical area with palm trees and maybe an inch or two of snow in the mountains.

Plus, I'm not sure I want to go through the security.

No but a Spetznas trooper is more likely to blast full auto into him in a group of people in the attempt to "deter" him than most.

And reprisals will be off the fucking hook. Except for the embarassment of an attack, Putin might half want then to do something so he can go fucking nuts on Muslims and his own country men will cheer him and he'll tell the world they can fuck their objections to how he goes about it.

So far, no Russian leader has been able to do much with them. The invasion of Afghanistan didn't turn out so well, and the Russians have been trying to keep a lid on the Chechens since 1785, with only limited success.

No, they have not broken Chechenya's back but they sure do kill a fuck load of them and something at the Olympics might give Vlad the excuses he heeds to do the kind of things that would brake them.

He gives little care about hostages, so that's out for the Jawas.

Afghanistan, do you know the last 2 years of the war, militarily the Soviets were actually winning again? Kind of like us in Vietnam, too late to make a difference by then it was time to GTFO.

The US copied many of their later methods and tactics when they came in in 01. Using Special forces to find the enemy and then using their air assault units and gunships to fucking thrash them, as well as dealing with some tribes themselves, remember that was actually a civil war at first.

Sochi is a *dream* terror target. The world came to them and built a resort within target range. They can just phone in daily bomb threats to the international media and maybe some suicide bombings in nearby towns. IED anybody? Doesn't matter how many the Russians kill. It's about the visitors.

But, I expect the Russians to lay down some insane security.

Yes anything that points out strength is a Daddy issue to your type. Must be your asses stay sore after yours rapes you?

Politics aside, if you don't think Obama is a bitch especially next to evil ass Vlad your judgement is impaired.

Not saying they can stop it, saying they will do more than about anyone to try to and they don't have the same issue with collaterals that we do. He'll care about the tourist as for how he'd look and that's probably about it.

And their retaliations are a motherfucker.

I was told last week by a Georgian, "Putin won't hesitate to turn Chechnya into a parking lot" if they try anything.
I'm not sure the Chechens consider that a deterrent. It wouldn't take much to make a dramatic statement.

Tim, you should go. I cant see passing up on the Olympics based on a very low probability. Olympics are a spectacular event and well worth the pain in the ass to attend.

And if something goes boom...first hand journalism at its best.

Kadyrov without doubts will do everything for Putin. And he even less bothered about "civilised methods" then russians.
Putin his only chanse to remain in President's chair. I am sure there already big purges or something.
But... as was said it is very difficult to stop suicide bomber.
Though i am sure there will be thousands of FSB agents in Sochi.

Deal is I only have a couple of days to spare. I'm thinking there may be lesser disasters looming. Bad fake snow. Lack of organization. Bullying security. Stuff like that.
