Eric Striker:
Putin willing to tell these people "No" even once has been enough to cause a commotion in the international Jewish power structure.
Imagine if more leaders of major countries did this. In America the concept of the government telling Jews what to do instead of vice versa is unthinkable. US, UK and France are the weapons Jews utilize to project their power globally, but if you demonstrate an ability to militarily and economically defend against these superpowers you don't have to take their shit anymore.
"It is also unclear whether any oligarch is in a position to change Putin’s mind on much of anything. The oligarchs do not act as a council of advisers, and they are not people whose opinion carries any special weight with Russia’s despotic president. It’s really the other way around: Their existence depends on whether Putin permits them to exist, and their safety is in danger if they stray too far outside the regime’s limits. This might be especially true of Fridman, Abramovich, and Aven, who were all rich men before Putin came to power, and who are not hardcore loyalists or straightforward apparatchiks the way a true believer like Rosneft CEO Igor Sechin is."
