What is it about these assholes killing women who stand for freedom? They have no bollocks. Russian (and Iranian) women have more balls then most of their male leaders.

Abducted and murdered on Wednesday, hours after her organisation backed calls for Vladimir Putin to face trial over atrocities in Chechnya.
Natalya Estemirova, who won numerous international awards for her work, was bundled into a car as she left her home in Grozny, the Chechen capital. Her body was later found by the side of a road in the neighbouring province of Ingushetia. She had been shot twice in the head at close range.
Mrs Estemirova, a single mother in her early 40s, was the seventh opponent of Ramzan Kadyrov, the Kremlin-backed Chechen president, to have been murdered in the past 10 months.
Her colleagues at Memorial, which is widely regarded as Russia's most respected human rights organisation, alleged that Mr Kadyrov was responsible for the killing.
"Ramzan Kadyrov is responsible, not only because he leads Chechnya," alleged Oleg Orlov, Memorial's director. "He threatened Natalya, told her that her hands would be covered in blood and that he destroys bad people.
"We didn't say this before because we were scared for her safety." Mr Kadyrov's spokesman said he was unaware of the activist's disappearance.
Dmitry Medvedev, the Russian president, was said to have been "indignant" over the killing but there was no response from Mr Putin, the prime minister, who appointed Mr Kadyrov to restore order in the troubled republic.

Maybe that’s why Zero didn’t ‘eat out’ when he was in Russia. He must have left his ‘food taster’ back in Paris.
Brave woman.
God Bless her
...Many moons ago I would have agreed to disarm/destroy. That was my biggest hope. Today, thinking, let’s get rid of them, 1 target at a time. That’s my biggest fear...
LOL - good thinking - but they wouldn’t harm their ally.
You wanted us to disarm unilaterally our nuclear weapons?
Well, you have a President who agrees with that strategy and will be moving us in that direction.
I just hope Putin will be a nice guy and then leave us and Europe and the former Soviet nations alone, don’t you?
Putin, et al, are bad but not as bad as the Chechen rebels. Remember Beslan?

...Yer right, I and you have a POTUS and a Congress that would give up this nation to appease the rest of the world by saying that we can get along. IMO, forgive my expletives THAT'S BULLSH!T! AND UNACCEPTIBLE TO THIS CITIZEN!!!
...I don't want to have war and dying, but, if I means saving any lives to end a war, let's go all out. I'm ready to go to the Capital and be arrested for peaceful demonstration against this government and this administration for giving, no, selling my nation to the highest bidder...
...As for your last paragraph, a message to Putin, and the rest of these demons, Obama in particular, don't fook with my life, liberty, property, and my FRiends. In Lex KY, Our Tea party cry is “FEAR US”, your days in elected office to represent us are all most over...
What makes you think the atrocities began and ended with the Chechen radical Muslims?
See the documentaries THE SEIGE OF BESLAN and Children of Beslan. You will probably never be the same.
Ok, tell me about them.
