"The Clowns" live up to their moniker?

Motive to continue war indefinitely.

There is NO COUP! It's all FAKE NEWS from the ZIOPRESS!

Less than 24 hours later:

Prigozhin IS A WESTERN STOOGE! They paid him to launch a COUP!

My take: Nobody will know for quite a while. A Putin Self-Coup to sniff out traitors? Why did Putin let him run his mouth for so long? Wasn't he summoned to Moscow a few weeks back for meetings?

6 billion can buy a lot of Prigozhin (for about 24 hours, LOL!).

Now, Putin gets to play 'Treasonista Whack-a-Mole."

One of the shortest Civil Wars in history

Ceffer says

Wagner chooses civil war? Use mercenary convicts as an army, what could possibly go wrong? And now, for something completely different.

Does it EVER occur to you that you MIGHT be just repeating stupid bullshit? Does this EVER occur to you?

In something like 3-4 days, nobody is going to remember this ever happened, because it didn't ever fucking happen.

AmericanKulak says

Never rely on mercenaries, folks.

HAHAHA.

Who do you think keeps control of Iraq? We're still at war, we just don't technically have the military at war with Iraq. It's all mercenaries.

Oh, the US calls them "contractors"...

Claimed RT Timeline:

24 June 2023

22:34 GMT
Russia’s federal road agency, Rosavtodor, told TASS news agency that all restrictions on traveling on roads and highways have been lifted.

The traffic on some roads was suspended on Saturday as the Wagner fighters were moving towards the capital.

22:16 GMT
The regional governor, Vasily Golubev, said that the Wagner convoy has left Rostov-on-Don and is now heading back to the company’s field camps.

21:46 GMT
The Kremlin has revealed the details of the agreement with Wagner PMC. According to spokesman Dmitry Peskov, the criminal case against Prigozhin will be dropped and he will leave Russia for Belarus. Wagner troops will not be prosecuted, and those who did not take part in the insurrection will be permitted to sign on with the Russian Defense Ministry.

19:54 GMT
A Wagner Group tank, which had been “stuck” in the gates of the Rostov-on-Don circus near the headquarters of Russia’s Southern Military District has left the location, footage from the scene shows.

19:40 GMT
The Wagner Group PMC contractors have begun leaving the premises of the headquarters of Russia’s Southern Military District in Rostov-on-Don. Footage from the scene shows the fighters packing their belongings and weaponry, and boarding combat vehicles.

17:32 GMT
Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko has held negotiations with the leader of the mutinous Russian PMC Wagner Group, Evgeny Prigozhin, and found an “absolutely beneficial and acceptable” way to end the crisis. The development was announced by Lukashenko’s press service, with the breakthrough reached after tense “day-long” talks.

The negotiations were conducted after speaking with and in coordination with Russian President Vladimir Putin, the press service noted. Prigozhin has accepted the offer to “stop advancements” of the PMC’s companies across Russia, it added.

16:38 GMT
US President Joe Biden has discussed the ongoing insurrection in Russia with Washington’s closest allies. “President Biden spoke today with President Emmanuel Macron of France, Chancellor Olaf Scholz of Germany, and Prime Minister Rishi Sunak of the United Kingdom. The leaders discussed the situation in Russia. They also affirmed their unwavering support for Ukraine,” the White House press service said in a statement.

16:24 GMT
Multiple shots were fired outside of the headquarters of Russia’s Southern Military District in Rostov-on-Don, RT correspondent Ilya Vasyuninn reports. Footage from the scene shows a Wagner Group PMC contractor firing an assault rifle at the entrance of a local office of Rostelecom, Russia’s biggest digital service provider, in an apparent attempt to break into the building.

HAHAHA.

Who do you think keeps control of Iraq? We're still at war, we just don't technically have the military at war with Iraq. It's all mercenaries.

Oh, the US calls them "contractors"...

Contextually different: Iraq is not the US Border. And mercenaries are famous for turning on their masters, esp. when pay/conditions are an issue, regardless of location but especially when deployed at home.

History is chock full of Condottieri taking over, going rogue/bandit, etc. And often their captains becoming Lords due to threats, buyouts of threats, or direct takeover.

Crazy Theory #1445: Prigozhin and Putin stole the $6.2B in "Missing" Pentagon funds.

Another observation: There's more footage by civilians from Rostov-on-Don of PMCs in town in the past 24 hours than disinterested footage of weeks of Ukr-Rus War. The latter is almost entirely propaganda filmed by either side.

Strange. Patnet bleacher sitters seemed to do better, and the so called MSM, as usual, were just cucks to the Mockingbird agendas.

russians so tough they kill each other just to get a challenging opponent.

The_Deplorable says

"Prigozhin's attempt to overthrow Putin has failed and he is now backpedalling."

Reportedly Russian authorities said that they opened a criminal investigation into the Wagner chief for allegedly calling for an armed rebellion.

In a televised speech on Saturday, President Putin said: "We will defend our country from treason... Evgeny Prigozhin’s attempted coup is a "stab in the back" amid the Ukraine conflict... The attempted insurrection by the chief of the Wagner private military company, Evgeny Prigozhin, amounts to a betrayal of Russia and its people... the country’s law enforcement agencies will take decisive actions to restore order... [Russia] is engaged in a historic struggle to safeguard its future while "repelling aggression from neo-Nazis and their masters" in the West.

"We are fighting for the lives and safety of our people, for our sovereignty and independence. For the right to be and remain Russia... That’s why the actions that split our unity are, in fact, apostasy of our people, of our comrades-in-arms. This is a stab in the back to our country and our people.

Against this backdrop, Russia’s Armed Forces and other government agencies have received the necessary orders... antiterrorist measures have been introduced... decisive actions will be taken to stabilize the situation..."

Theories so far:

1. Prigozhin/Wagner had a mutiny over plans to incorporate the organization into the Russian Military. I suspect individual members have motivation in that after their term of service, they would be able to command relatively high pay around the world; whereas if incorporated into the Russian Army they'd have a less generous enlistment package.

2. Prigozhin and Putin are working together and/or:
2a. Prigozhin took Western Money and notified Putin; Putin and Prigozhin split the money while the latter ran a fake temporary mutiny. Prigozhin will be reprimanded and Putin will grudgingly acknowledge his "Service" and reduce penalty from death to exile (but of course Prigozhin will keep his share).
2b. Prigozhin ran a self-coup for Putin to flush out Western Sympathizers/Disloyal Officials

3. Prigozhin truly was rebelling after consulting/bribes with/from
3a. "the West"
3b. Himself
3c. Other Russian Oligarchs
3d. The Chicoms

Just another distraction from the Biden crime family exposure and COVID-19 lies.

LOL! They got the CIA to pay for their war expenses? What was that about impounding Russian assets in the West to pay Ukraine to continue the war? Must be a few useful idiots in the CIA, State Department, MI6, and the Pentagon being taken to the woodshed over this one

This was one big KGB psych ops drill.

Putin wanted to see how Ukraine and the West would respond to this fake coup.

Also Putin found out if there are any dissenters in the general population or military.

I don't think anybody in Russian military (who is worth a shit like above the rank of O-4 or major) turned and joined this Wagner crime boss and his thug forces.

Putin is as good and solid as the Cuban socialist party; he's been indoctrinating them since Poland joined NATO under the Clinton Crime Family administration.

But I think Clinton got his arm twisted by the "neo-conservatives" (ie., Bush Sr hold-overs and Lockheed Martin lackeys) to agree to this, just like he got his arm twisted by the US Chamber of Commerce with saying that China would be a more open, peaceful, and free country if they joined the WTO.

Cuba has a better chance of getting rid of the socialist party than the Russian general population and military would turn on Putin.

.

Putin was too upset and it showed, he didn’t plan this.
His adventure in Ukraine is the problem for him, and he’s unable to correct his blunder.
I think something will change in Russia in 6 months or so.
Maybe Putin will be taken out or he will declare victory in Ukraine and say it’s over.

clambo says

he will declare victory in Ukraine and say it’s over.

When you annex territory that you don't control isn't that pretty much the same?

clambo says

No, this will be a low level war for years to come and Putin isn't the mastermind behind this war anyhow. It doesn't matter if he's "president" or not.

One would hopium. They seem to be running into the limitations of the Satanic Imperatives. When everybody you rely on or appointed into leadership is a depraved, perverted, spineless, blackmailed, lying, narcissistic servile scoundrel sucking printing press fiat money without a shred of honor, perhaps the sticks of the fasces don't hold together so well.

"BRITISH INTELLIGENCE/ MI6 > LEAD BY THE CIA ( ROCKEFELLERS +ROTHSCHILD REGIMEN 4RTH RIECH)BEHIND>>>>> >>THE WAGNER GROUP MILITARY COUP AGAINST PUTIN AND RUSSIA_

_PUTIN knew all along the Wagner group was going to stage a military coup. THE WORLD ALLIANCE MILITARY BEHIND THE SCENES GAVE INFO THE INTEL TO PUTIN LONG AGO.
even the past two months Wagner group was beginning to make fake military assessments and giving fake military reports to Putin that Ukraine was breaking the lines and massively attacking , while real Russian infantry units said the Wagner group was lying and intentionally giving bad information that Ukraine was winning the war in Major parts of Ukraine.

>it was known Yevgeny Prigozhin the leader of Wagner group was Invested heavily in UK corporation under subsidiary investors and companys and was connected to BLACKROCK ( CIA ROCKERFELLER OPS) and Fortune 500 companies connected to the committee of 300 were helping funnel money to Yevgeny Prigozhin in money laundering operations .

THE WAGNER GROUP WAS GETTING INTELLIGENCE FROM UK INTEL AND MI6 CIA ..
they were intentionally positioned in the Ukraine WAR and intentionally killed hundred thousand Ukraine's to make it seem the Wagner group was the heros for Russia ( this Black operation was long ago created so the Russian people would glorify The Wagner group after they entered the war as heros )....> They ( Wagner) expect the Russian people to support them as they turned on PUTIN and said there was civil unrest in Russia because of Putin and he was not Capable to defend Russia.
The Wagner group Intensionally tired to lie to Russia forces to join them to go to Moscow saying they needed to defend Moscow from an ATTACK
( The REAL TRUTH was Ukraine intelligence was also working with Wagner and placed small pods of military men through Russian city to create chaos and then the chaos would be blamed on Putin and the Wagner group would enter the city as heros ...
BUT now the plan has been destroyed and Russian forces have turned on Wagner and PUTIN HAS VOWED TO DESTROY THE WAGNER GROUP and battalions have been sent to WAGNER TO BE KILLED ADD THEY TRY TO ADVANCE RUSSIA WITH LESS THEN 7,000 TROOPS ... They had expected to go into Moscow with 70,000 troops combined with Russian commands forces to over throw PUTIN..)
> ... But Putin knew months before the cia .MI6 WAS PLANNING A MILITARY COUP USING THE WAGNER GROUP.

_ just as TRUMP... U S. military is using GAME THEORY to bring down the deep state..
>Putin also ignited GAME THEORY OPERATIONS AGAINST THE WAGNER GROUP and let them into the War and let them push their agenda. The GAME THEORY MOVEMENTS EXPOSE THE LAST CARD OF CIA. NATO DARPA.+MI6 operations that includes Russian military moles. Blackhats were planted inside the Russian Federation system ... NOW THE SWAMP HAS BEEN EXPOSED IN RUSSIA THE FINAL DEEP STATE REGIMEN WORKING WITH WAGNER. CIA( PENTAGON DS) MI6 PLAN IS COLLAPSING.
THE LAST CIA NATO. ECT ECT MI6 ECT ECT PLAN TO DESTROY RUSSIA IS FAILING...>>>
>>AND EXPOSURE IS COMING TO COLLAPSE THE WORLD BANKING SYSTEMS PROTECTORS> THE CIA. [ DS] INTELLIGENCE REGIMENS.

RIGHT NOW THROUGH RUSSIA.. THE PEOPLE ARE REBELLING AGAINST THE WAGNER GROUP AND RUSSIA FORCES WHO HAD BEEN LED ASTRAY MY THE GROUP HAVE PUT DOWN THEIR WEAPONS AND WAGNER GROUP FOUNDATION AND OFFICES AND PREMONITION THROUGH THE RUSSIA FEDERATION HAVE BEEN DESTROYED ....>>> AS PUTIN GAVE A POWERFUL SPEECH AGAINST THE WAGNER GROUP ATTEMPT MILITARY COUP.

MI,6. NAZI. NATO.CIA ROCKEFELLERS ROTCHIILDS EVT ECT ECT IN PANIC 🔥... As their last plan to over throw RUSSIA HAS FAILED AN NOW THE WAGNER GROUP WILL BE DESTROYED.

BEHIND THE SCENES>];
TRUMP. CHEYENNE MNT IS SMILING..... THE WORLD ALLIANCE IS SMILING AS THE ROCKEFELLER CIA PLANNED FAILED."

The idea that 25,000 men could take Moscow is silly. And it wasn't 25k, it was maybe a few thousand tops. That's IF the RusGov didn't bother to put a few jackknifed tractor trailers on the highways could they get to Moscow in a day. The Police ("Moscow Militia") could easily stop a few thousand men, and I doubt there aren't regiment-sized Russian Army assets in and around Moscow that could be deployed within a few hours.

No.

Russia defeated the United States and NATO in Ukraine and military defeats have consequences.

Even if CNN, NBC, CBS, BBC, WaPo, The NYT, NPR etc ignore this defeat!

One such consequence is, in my thinking, the collapse of NATO.

Some people think that Putin actually colluded with the Wagner guy; the guy is critical of the Kremlin military bosses, and blamed them for the military adventure in Ukraine.
The theory is Putin is looking for a way out and he will blame the Kremlin guys for the debacle.

The_Deplorable says

Yep. This ^^^^^^

I think NATO may collapse. For Europe, this war doesn't make any sense but Europe is run by a bunch of fucking traitors under the US intelligence agencies. NATO is easy money for them, the reason they have US bases is that it's free American money, for a bullshit military base.

NATO should have been disbanded when the Warsaw Pact ended but I think it's possible Europe will find some fucking balls and work in their self interest for ONCE, they haven't in 30 years at least.

It's a proxy war. You want to know what is going to happen?

Look up Vietnam - that was a proxy war, one the US lost.

You can look at Afghanistan in the 1980's, that was a proxy war, a war the US won.

I think it's unlikely that Russia will lose this war. They will end up killing basically the entire young male population of Ukraine, will take over Eastern Ukraine, and what is left of Western Ukraine may even be taken over by Poland. The entire country won't be conquered, but the people that remain living will be a fragment of their former population.

Does appear to be a double triple agent type switcheroo. Of course, Kulak's comments on using mercenaries means they are perpetually negotiating and switching sides for money. It's having a wolf by the ears that is happy to bite your direction as soon as you let go, or somebody pays them better than you do.

I don't think this is quite the analogy.

If Wagner goes rogue, it's easy to arrange an "accident" in "friendly fire".

I think this is some sort of scam or setup. I wouldn't be a bit surprised if Wagner was given this huge bribe, reported it, and instigated a fake coup attempt to carry out their end of the bargain.

I keep saying, the State Department is either filled with morons or 5th column twats. I don't know which. They have done ENORMOUS damage to this nation in the last 20 years and 7 wars. Victoria Nuland is seen as some intelligent brilliant person - she's not. She's an arrogant, stupid cunt who is entirely confident in her expertise. This stupid war is just going to destroy Ukraine, weaken the EU, and the US, and Russia will hardly feel a fucking thing.

But we'll see - I've been wrong before, but I've seen the results of Afghanistan, Iraq, Pakistan, Libya, Syria, Yemen, and Somalia. None of these dumb fucking conflicts has advantaged the United States. If instead we worked on infrastructure, we'd actually be the most powerful nation on Earth.

I (stupidly?) have confidence in this country, if only the chains are taken off.

EXACTLY. Putin is mastermind in KGB style psych ops. It was a poser op or fake coup.

It was to try to find out how the West (and Ukraine) would respond assuming they would get bamboozled or snowed by this Kremlin Kabuki theater performance.

Notice how conveniently the Wagner chief crime boss is now in Belarus ? What's next ?

This Wagner thug "miraculously" or "mysteriously" gets full control of the Russian nuclear missiles in Belarus ?

They are beyond repair or even salvage. They are fully compromised and their is no turning back like a come-to-Jesus-moment.

I seriously think she very well might be working to destroy the United States.

Victoria Nuland is married to Robert Kagan. He's the stupid asshole that lied us into Iraq - for WHAT? Well, it did advantage Israel.

I think she's an active traitor to this nation.

richwicks says

Well, it did advantage Israel.

How? Didn't Israel NOT respond to nightly missile attacks at the request of the USA in a conflict that started between Iraq and Kuwait over side-drilling that they had nothing at all to do with? And didn't the Palestinians side with Saddam and acted as his agents in Kuwait?

Since the beginning of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, analysts & officials have claimed that Putin will never back down; that he needs a facing-saving win (i.e. Ukrainian territory) to end his war. Events yesterday completely undermined that assumption.

Putin talked tough in his national address. He sounded like someone preparing for a big fight. But when faced with the difficult decision of trying to stop Wagner mercenaries with major force, he backed down.

He didn't escalate. He didn't need a face-saving off-ramp to declare victory. When facing the possibility of really losing to Wagner mercenaries coming into Moscow, he just capitulated.

Instead of doubling down with more force to crush the mutiny, Putin accepted humiliation instead. He was the rat trapped in the corner that so many Putinologists have told us to fear. But he didn't lash out & go crazy. He negotiated with a traitor.

The lesson for the war in Ukraine is clear. Putin is more likely to negotiate and end his war if he is losing on the battlefield. Those who have argued that Ukraine must not attack Crimea for fear of triggering escalation must now reevaluate that hypothesis.

The sooner Putin fears he is losing the war, the faster he will negotiate.

Despite it lasting less than a day, the “Wagner uprising,” which grew out of this performance, is likely to deal a serious blow to Putin’s power. The mutiny has demonstrated the vulnerability at the core of Putin’s system of power. Prigozhin has just proven that it is possible to seize a city of millions in Russia without firing a single shot, and then move toward Moscow without meeting any resistance. This may suggest that many of Russia’s security officials and soldiers do not like their commanders, and will not risk their lives for them. The confrontation ending in stalemate has not changed anything in this respect.

For better or for worse, the rebellion didn’t last long enough to discover to what extent Prigozhin’s radical populist ideas are popular among Russia’s security services, which would have been evident from the number of military personnel defecting to the side of Wagner. In any case, Prigozhin has voiced his agenda, which will, in one form or another, circulate further in society.

Prigozhin’s insurrection is another link in a long process demonstrating the emperor has no clothes. Each such story almost literally “exposes” Putin: it strips him of one of his many “vestiges.”

The previous blow against Putin was in Russia’s Belgorod region, when relatively small military units crossed the border, seized populated areas, and then withdrew with impunity. This hurt Putin’s ability to say his “special operation” posed no threat to Russians.

The Russian army’s inability to solve large-scale combat tasks was demonstrated to the whole world, as the myth of the “world’s second army” and its leader collapsed with a bang. Putin’s reputation was first damaged in the early days of the war, when it became clear that he had been deceived about the state of affairs in Ukraine and that he was unable to filter out unreliable information — even as an experienced politician and a career intelligence officer.

Prigozhin, however, dealt the most crushing blow to Putin. It’s now clear that the president is unable to control “his” people, who at some point may become a threat to everyone else.

It’s clear that the Kremlin will try to get rid of the remnants of quasi-state structures like Wagner Group. However, the very existence of Prigozhin’s “march” on Moscow proved the inadequacy of Putin’s worldview, since he believed nothing of this sort was possible. Destroying private military companies, of course, will not fix that.
