When I read your vision of Putin with his arms wrapped around himself, before I got to the part about them being held in place to immobilize him, my mind went with the vision of him hugging himself, giving himself the love he needs so he wouldn't need to be such a dictator bully! Immobilizing himself, with no need for violence toward others. Just where my mind landed. Everyone visualizes what works for them!
Krysta, thank you for your insight. As with most dictators or authoritarians, logic and good will are not part of their thought process. I am impressed with the world response as well, but Putin will only be stopped with like violence I am afraid, and he has one of the world's largest armies behind him. I can hope that love and goodwill will override his autocracy.
We can hope that he will be stopped before he hurts so many more people. It might have to come from his own countrymen and women and the soldiers. Wouldn't it be great if the soldiers decided to stop fighting? Hey, miracles happen, and maybe we'll get one here.....
I just do not understand with all the push back Putin has gotten why he is still continuing down this path. I have been trying to wrap my head around this the last couple of days and it is just baffling.

People like him aren't readily understood, that's for sure.
