Some believe that Russia's leader is facing imminent death from disease or possible assassination. This could mean cancer or perhaps syphilis like the infamous Führer of Germany reportedly suffered from. One theory is that Putin could be poisoned. Others are suggesting that his 'behavior' is a result of receiving mystical advice from a member of his own cabinet. All of these ideas are circling the drain of the IDES, as calls for Putin's assassination come daily from the west. Some may find it interesting that Rasputin, the infamous and mysterious Siberian mystic who had immense power in the court of Tsar Nicholas II, was also poisoned and then assassinated through gunshot when his power became too unbearable for other aristocrats. Is the discussion about Putin's health honest or just part of a western propaganda campaign? Is Vladamir Putin healthy, sick, sane, or following the stars on the advice of an occultist like so many leaders throughout history and the Bible? Either way, PUTIN has become a RAS-PUTIN. His power and motivation are a threat and mystery to the West and so calls for his assassination and or poisoning have crescendoed with the anniversary of Julius Caesar's death. Upon further glance, RAS-PUTIN translates to 'Ra's Putin' or the path of the Egyptian sun god. The archangel of the sun is also St. Micahel, patron of Kiev - therefore, St. Michael's Path. The sun also gives us Chlorophyll, a word that comes from khlōros which is the name of the Green Horse of the Kingdom of Death.
