Russian lawmakers authorize Putin to use military force outside the country, Part II

[hazard]

Putin's running Russia as a feudal power, sure, but he's running it as a Muscovite style feudal power, and offing the boyar who rose up in rebellion is what you do in such circumstances. A tsar cannot accept letting such a thing go, it's a threat to their legitimacy.

Frankly, I'm surprised it happened this fast, but Prigozhin's days were numbered the day he went on his trip to Moscow. There was absolutely no fucking way he'd survive doing it.


Also, putting the bomblets on drones was always part of the (public) plan for the cluster bombs send to Ukraine. It's not the first time the drones are being used as delivery vehicles for explosives.
