I just can't believe any thinking person believes that punishing the Russian people has any chance of getting rid of Putin.

He has had all the time in the world to insulate himself and plan exactly for that situation. I bet he doesn't even come in contact in person with anyone he doesn't know from the Soviet days at this point and the people he does are probably guilty of all kinds of things themselves if Putin was done away with.

If russians didn't support Putin, it wouldn't matter if he lives or not and if he's isolated (which is called an imprisonment btw) or not.

Russians have to decide: do you want to continue living in peace with the rest of the world, or not. In the former case, retake control of your country and stop invading, raping and murdering Ukrainian civilians.
