It really seems to me that Putin has been knocked off balance. He was expecting a cakewalk. Instead the Russian advances have been stopped for the most part, and they are being reversed in some areas. The Russians have had an estimated 15,000 dead, including 4 generals. Putin has resorted to terror attacks, which is usually the mark of a loser.

In the meantime, individual programmers, including many Ukrainians, are launching successful cyber attacks on Russia. This is in addition to the economic sanctions that governments are using.

Putin does not want to be seen as someone who is inept and weak.

I don't think that Putin is crazy, but his legs seem as rubbery as Primo Canera was when he fought Max Baer (see youtube for the video).
