Could you please expand upon the "planning their invasion for several days just proves this" comment? Was that not enough, or too much planning?
“Inflict defeat”
Playing the victim while being the aggressor.
“Stop hitting back, you’re hurting me!” >

Typical bullying narcissist behavior to flip the morality of the situation back at the victims. 
"Stop hurting me! I'm only hurting you because I ~~love you~~ want to install a puppet government and steal your valuable lands and resources!" >

It's more sinister than being a bullying narcissist. Since Soviet times, Russia and the KGB's strategy has always been to befuddle the truth and skew any information that people get. They've been doing it for over a century.
Putin's an old KGB agent and he's using the old playbook, but I honestly think he's so old and geriatric that he doesn't understand that the world doesn't work in that same way in the modern information age. Maybe in Russia where he controls practically everything, but this sort of thing just sounds comical to the rest of us. The guy is still living in the USSR c. 1975. >

Completely agree on this one. Planning their invasion for several days just proves this. This guy definitely needs an updated OS. Unfortunately, this will never happen since his KGB school just "seals" everything he knows not leaving a chance for the update. Sad though.
