This article is overloaded with BS.

First of all, the slanderous implication that Russia was responsible for Belsan. Who does this author think he is, Michael Moore? This is idiocy!

Secondly, the suggestion that Belsan is a "pretext" for colating power. Excuse me, it sounds like an awfully good reason, not a pretext? Why didn't the author mention that 1000 Russians were slaughtered in Daegestan by repeated invasions by the Islamic warlord Basayev, ignorance, or because it didn't fit his argument? Why no mention of the long list of terror incidents -- blown up apartment buildings in Moscow, hundreds taken hostage in the theater, two passenger planes being downed, crowded subway being blown up.. Sounds like a legitimate state of emergency to me? Why no mention of the legendary corruption of regional governors in Russia? Why no mention of the popularity of a very strong, centralized government in Russia?

No I don't think it is ignorance, I think it is pure intellectual dishonesty. The author of this piece is a dishonest, delusional fraud.

Meet JR Nyquist, hater of all things Russian, who was writing books and trying to sell them on World Net Daily, predicting that Putin was the antichrist and Russia was going to declare war on us at any minute.....

Ooops, but then it was not Russia but the islamics. And his books did not sell so well. Kept dropping the price on those books....Sale! Sale!!

I was laughing all the while.

So now he sees the chance and makes the most of it.

Russia in the news! Quick. My books, drag them out from the basement - maybe we can sell one or two more!

Yes, those things were all done by the secret agents of Putin you see. So he could win the election. Never mind that he already had something like 90% of the vote going in. These elections can get close, you can never be sure.
Better kill some more of your fellow citizens in case they change their minds at the last minute.

Now how that explains Basayev taking 1500+ people hostage in a hospital in Buddenovsk, when Yeltsin was still running the country, don't ask me Perhaps they knew in advance Putin was coming? Early security work for that scary and close election?
