Man, Russian flu is really contagious this year. Seems like the only vaccination is to not criticize Putin.

Must be the "Russian flu".

Putin behaving badly I think.
The West really needs to express outrage at this and act accordingly so that Putin realizes he CANNOT act this way. Or if it's the former KGB and not Putin, he will be forced to shut it down.

Gaidar himself as well as his daughther both say they suspect anti Putin forces are responsible. Gaidar criticized some economic polices of the Putin government, but was in no way a big critic of him personally.
To: MadIvan
LOL! Any day now this will be blamed on George Bush for trying to set Putin up.
Funny thing is I don't think Putin is doing this. It's even a bit over the top for KGB.

I think "The Death of the Cold War" died from these poisonings too.

Wasn't there a big "poison affair" in the high society of ancien regime France a few centuries back? But there, IIRC, it was all about inheritances.

Egor Gaidar is the grandson of the communist author Arkady Gaidar (Golikov), who fought at 15 during the Russian revolution, and even at that tender age - as a platoon commander - participated in round-ups and murders of peasants. After the revolution he wrote cloyingly sick novels with Holden Caulfield-style young commies. He was pretty much an icon for Bolsheviks, and probably the reason his grandson got elected in the early 1990s.
Supposedly Arkady Gaidar died in battle during the early days of WW II, but in 1979 his biographer (Glushchenko), while looking into the "official" heroic version of Gaidar's death, found some contrary evidence. There was an old woman in the Ukraine who claimed Arkady Gaidar wasn't killed by the Germans, but hanged as a deserter. Supposedly hid out for a month in her root cellar, and she even had momentos and notebooks from the author. She stated that he was picked up by an NKVD squad, and went kicking and screaming.
When Glushchenko presented his work on Gaidar for review, he was asked by a high-level, commie bureaucrat if he was tired of living a peaceful life, and so the biographer decided to drop that angle.
There weren't any Politkovskayas back then.
