That’s right, my friends. If Vladmir Putin’s latest claims are validated by the UN, Santa Claus will be a Russian. Increasingly, that also means he’ll be a Communist (or at least a Socialist). Incredibly, Vlady-Cakes (or whatever good ‘ol GW is calling him these days) has said that, due to a submerged ice bridge that connects Russia and the North Pole, the North Pole belongs to Russia.
Now, other than owning a worldwide symbol of the joy of Christmas, why would Puty-Put (GWs real nick-name for him, no joke) want the North Pole? Well, as the article points out, the North Pole has a TON of natural resources, including gas, oil and diamonds.
Remember how over the past few years Putin has been nationalizing private oil companies in Russia? At the time, it seemed like he was wanting to get the profits that others had worked for (Socialist, remember?), but now a bigger picture seems to be emerging. Profits on whatever Russia’s current oil output is will seem like peanuts compared to the profit on 10,000,000,000 TONS of oil.
Anyway, read the article below and let me know what you think.
Putin’s Arctic invasion: Russia lays claim to the North Pole
What I want to know is what exactly does “a far more serious submission to the UN” mean? This could be very serious for everyone, I fear. Putin is getting stranger and bolder in his old age.
