U.S. “media” is todays USSR’s propaganda PRAVDA and Izvestiya!!!
Any further questions???
How many journalists and dissidents has Castro killed and he is a hero of the left.
Merry Christmas
You are quite correct. I was thinking only within the narrow context of the Trump interview.
Looking at who we call friends and allies, like the Saudi's and China, I've basically felt the same about Russia for a long time.
Litvinenko laid to rest in historic Highgate
. ... .Within a stone's throw of the old Soviet trade mission, once a nest of KGB spies, and the grave of Karl Marx, Litvinenko was laid to rest on a hill overlooking north London.
The historic cemetery, resting place of scientist Michael Faraday, now also has the insubstantial grave of a former Russian spy killed by radioactive poison, among its Victorian tombs.
The party of around 50 mourners were led up a colonnaded path to the graveside by Litvinenko's widow, Marina, and 12-year-old son Anatoly.
Also there were his first wife Natalia, and Alexander and Sonia, his son and daughter from his first marriage.
In barely audible Russian his father, Walter, told mourners gathered around the muddy grave: "Sacha was killed for telling the truth by those who are afraid of what he had to say.
"It was a cowardly murder by those who wanted to gag him in the most brutal way."
But, as the coffin was lowered into the grave, the funeral was interrupted by a Muslim imam invited by one of Litvinenko's friends, Akhmed Zakayev.
The preacher said Islamic prayers over the body of Alexander Litvinenko according to what Zakayev says were the spy's last wishes.
Litvinenko's wife, Marina, by contrast had wanted a non-denominational service at the grave. The split reflected a division over whether Litvinenko had converted to Islam the day before he died.
Walter Litvinenko seemed to indicate that he believed Zakayev by attending Muslim prayers at Regent's Park Mosque before the burial.
He was joined by Litvinenko's brother, Maxim, and his son from his first marriage, Alexander.
Afterwards he said: "I want to thank all my son's brothers in faith that they prayed for him and remember him." The family come from the North Caucasus, near the war-torn region of Chechnya, where Muslim rebels are fighting Russian forces.
Litvinenko's sister is married to a Muslim and one friend, Valdimir Bukovsky, said the family had visited mosques many times. ... .
Ah, the Hitler defense. Had he survived, at trial in Nuremburg he would have stated “I neffer killed anyvun; I vas only giffing orders!”
Google is a strong supporter of the enemies of freedom. Why would we use them?
But Steponallofus said there were “allegationsâ€.
To a liberal, allegations and proof are one and the same.
If Putin killed journalists on his orders and this is true why is Obama working with a murderer? You can’t have it both ways, liberals.
I read the book - all it indicates is that dealings in Russia are treacherous not that Putin orders each and every hit. The problem in perception that I see is that Putin is shown as all powerful and controlling. Putin’s phenomenal ability has been to lead this crazy Russian nation where everyone can kill you and do so with some competence and also seems to have reversed a decline in some areas but not so much in others.
Another book I read was “Londonistan” which was about oligarch and ex-oligarch ex-patriates in London. Some of them butted heads, unsuccessfully, with Putin. Maybe it wasn’t money... they had built empires during the dissolution and privatization of the USSR, and Putin wanted them back, perhaps not for himself, but for the country. And then there’s the case of Alexander Litvenenko, who was poisoned by Polonium, presumably by Russian agents.
It might be a wild herd that does a lot of free-lancing, like our CIA used to be; or there may be benign neglect from the top.
I don’t know. I don’t think he’s Mr. Clean, but I still think he’s more patriotic than Mr. Obama.
Addendum: My bad... the title wasn’t Londonistan. But, the book was about high powered Russian emigrees in London.
