you gotta admit, taking out two high profile critics in a few months is sending a very clear message to russian dissidents you would have to be hopelessly stupid or naive to not get - don't make the kremlin uncomfortable or you will die.

Yeah, except the people in Russia have more freedom now then in the last 50 years. That means people think they have true free speech to run for politics or speak to the Russian masses with a message of dissent. Look at Yukos. That should have been a clear message to the Russians that the Politbureau still rule Russia and that they have a socialist government, not a true democracy...
