Trying to understand Putin

[fridi]

Makes you wonder. See, he had it all. He's a butcher and a sociopath, but he had it all. He could set himself up with a sweet, militarily protected island in the Pacific somewhere and live a great life now.

But NO! He decided to attack/level/murder. Why? What have the Ukrainian people done to him that they deserve to be "cleanesed"? He could retire now, or continue to rule Russia for the rest of his life, but he did THIS?!!

Needs an explanation, right?...
