The world has seen two leaders in these terrible days. They have seen President Zelensky on the streets in the besieged capitol of his motherland, grim, determined and brave, trying to help his people survive a war crime. They have seen you, Putin, posturing in vast empty halls, dwarfed by giant tables at which no one is allowed to sit near, hiding behind walls inside walls inside walls, a horde of guards and an army surrounding you. A rat in a maze of your own making,
You have already trespassed beyond the far fringes of decency, and if you do manage to kill this man who is showing the world what real courage looks like you will have created a martyr whose name will be honored a hundred years past the day people no longer bother to spit on the ground in contempt when your name is mentioned. A fate of your own making.
