You only need to read this sentence from the piece to assess the whole of it:

"For his part, President Putin tried to divert the outrage over the horrific Breslan catastrophe away from his KGB colleagues who had caused it"

Author credibility = FLUSH

Well, the "Putin for Pope" crowd will, arrive soon and try to paint the National Review as some sort of lefty rag.

It's simply amazing that people in this forum are so willing to embrace the rebirth of totalitarianism in Russia with such fervor.

Putin is dangerous.

Can you provide proof that the KGB did not in fact cause the massacre?

Can you say Reichstag fire?

By the way...did you bother seing who the author is?

Ion Mihai Pacepa, a former two-star general, is the highest-ranking intelligence officer to have defected from the Soviet bloc. His book Red Horizons has been republished in 27 countries."

What would a two-star general in Russia's intelligence community know about Russian intelligence...

Gone? Actually, it morphed into the FSB and portions of the SVR.There was actually very little personnel change involved, really mostly a reshuffle.

Rather than ever debate my points formally, you always choose the ad hominem attack. How educated are you? I am curious.
