Russian Official Responds To US Senator’s Call To Assassinate Putin

Authored by Zachary Stieber via The Epoch Times,

Russia on March 4 described a U.S. senator’s call to assassinate Russian President Vladimir Putin as irresponsible.

Anatoly Antonov, the Russian ambassador to the United States, said the remarks were “irresponsible and dangerous.”

The degree of Russophobia and hatred in the USA towards Russia is off the charts. It’s unbelievable that a country’s senator preaching his moral values as a ‘guiding star’ to all mankind could afford a call on terrorism as a way to achieve Washington’s goals on the international arena,” Antonov said in a statement released by the Russian embassy.

He also said that “It’s getting scary for the fate of the United States, which has such irresponsible and unprofessional politicians at the helm,” and demanded an official explanation and a decisive condemnation of U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham’s (R-S.C.) comments.

Graham, a former Air Force lawyer, wrote on Twitter Thursday wondering if there was a “Brutus” in Russia, referring to Marcus Brutus, a Roman politician who assassinated Julius Caesar in ancient Rome.

“The only way this ends is for somebody in Russia to take this guy out. You would be doing your country—and the world—a great service,” Graham added.

“The only people who can fix this are the Russian people. Easy to say, hard to do. Unless you want to live in darkness for the rest of your life, be isolated from the rest of the world in abject poverty, and live in darkness you need to step up to the plate.”

Graham also made similar comments during an appearance on Fox News and reiterated his position on Friday morning while on “Fox & Friends.”

I’m convinced it’s a one man problem surrounded by a few people,” Graham said.

The war could also end if Putin is charged with a war crime, Graham said, before calling for a person like an “Elliot Ness or a Wyatt Earp” to take action.

Ness helped take down gangster Al Capone while Earp was one of the law enforcement officers who killed outlaws in the 1800s.

On Putin’s orders, Russia invaded Ukraine on Feb. 24.

Russian officials claimed the move was necessary to “demilitarize and denazify” the neighboring country, a claim widely derided by officials from other nations.

“Russia’s attack on Ukraine is a brutal, unprovoked invasion of a democracy, an ally, and a sovereign nation. It must not be allowed to stand, for it will create a precedent that unravels the international order that has kept the peace in Europe for nearly 80 years,” Sen. Rob Portman (R-Ohio) said on the Senate floor in Washington on March 1.

There are some really dangerous people in positions of power these days. Putin is betting that the rest of the world is scared to death of provoking nuclear war. On the other hand, we have Biden, who, confronted by the evil SOB who raped his wife, murdered his children, and burned down his house, would whisper, “You really should stop doing that, or people are going to get angry.”

I think the world is in big trouble. Evil SOBs and weaklings calling all the shots, and we all pay the price.

I see that differently. I think Putin is making it clear he does not give a shit if there is a nuclear war. This appears to be respect Russia or die with Russia. Bargaining and appeasement ends now.

Again, assuming he is not just playing his role……….

Kicking [fill in the blank] off the planet will solve everything–Miss Lindsey. Notice he is inciting someone else to take care of it. It makes me wonder how much money he is losing since this started.

There’s an awful lot of that kind of thinking going on already.

Why bother? Zelensky, on the other hand, his days are numbered, and the number doesn’t hit four digits. Maybe not even three. Not saying that’s good, but that’s reality. Russia is not going to leave him alive.

IT’S UP TO THE RUSSIAN PEOPLE TO DECIDE IF THEY WANT THAT MANIAC TO PUSH RUSSIA INTO A THIRD WORLD WAR, SAME GOES FOR THE SCUM IN DC AND WHO EVER IS RUNNING THE WHITE HOUSE, CAUSE IT CERTAINLY AIN’T JOE BIDEN OR HARRIS. WE HAVE TO WAIT FOR ELECTIONS HERE IN THE USA BUT THOSE FOLKS IN RUSSIA ,WELL THEY HAVE A HISTORY OF TAKING THINGS INTO THEIR OWN HANDS WHEN IT COME TO CHANGING THE GUARD. HOW MANY REVOLUTIONS AND LEADERS HAVE BEEN DENOUNCED AS ENEMIES OF THE STATE AND REMOVED OVER THE PAST HUNDRED YEARS ?? LETS HOPE COOLER HEADS PREVAIL ON BOTH SIDES.

Grahamnesty should buy a ticket to Moscow and whack Putin with his silk purse.

Only a total AH in high political office would make such a public statement about the head of state of another nation. When’s the last time they checked his blood or urine for controlled substances?

No wonder foreigners look upon us with jaundiced eyes with AH’s like Lindsey running the country.

Putin should give a speech deriding Miss Lindsey as an “obese homosexual pedophile.” I just want to hear the translator say, “The US Senator Lindsey Graham, who is an obese homosexual pedophile, called for my assassination, which made me laugh a great big belly laugh.”

Not saying I agree with shitforbrains call for a killing, there’s a reason why the US made assassinations illegal.

The same reason why pharmaceuticals only develop treatments, there is no money in a cure. The elites want a war, they want it real bad.

Presumably the Russians have decided that leaving the present US government in place is more destructive to America than removing them would be.

Everyone is looking high and low for someone, anyone, to take the blame for the mess we find ourselves in. Truth is this mess started in the Garden of Eden. There is no one person to blame. It is the fault of all mankind, we continue to move forward toward the inevitable end. The moment the Evolutionists changed who God is and all He has done, the true End Times began in earnest. And nothing will stop it moving forward. So all of this drama we’re watching is just window dressing. Soon the real end will begin. Are you ready? There is only one way to ‘fight’ this war, not the one you see, the real war the one that will determine it all! Learn to know Him, the Way, the Truth, and the Life, because that is the only answer to this war. His promises are the truth, the only truth, COME LORD JESUS COME!👵😇
