"I am counting on capitalism to overtake Russia and destroy Russia."

Obviously it would be a far better solution.

It appears that both Putin's Russia and Red China have drained every dime from the west in order to build their war machines for the 'final war' against the West.

The White House and Number 10 must begin to seriously pay attention to Russians remaining in Russia speaking the truth about Putin repressive, totalitarian, Neo-Soviet régime - and act accordingly while time remains to act.

Kasparov: The Putin system works like the Mafia – and previously the Stalin regime. The leader says: "Politkowskaja is a pain in the neck, I don't want to hear anything more about her." And the apparatus solves the problem. I do not know whether Putin gave an explicit order to commit murder. But it is clear that he tolerates and accepts these acts. (article below)

Neat site...
Kasparov: For me the individual Putin is not so important. Putin is the product of a system, not its creator. His personal responsibility for the inhuman regime that threatens the future of Russia is overestimated.

Are you trying to test our memory? A few minutes ago you painted a different picture: the boss commands, his footmen execute the order.

Kasparov: That is only superficially a contradiction. Putin was picked out in the late 90s by the Yeltsin clan, groomed and raised all the way to the top. At the time he was not a strong, charismatic figure, but a henchman. I do not say that Putin has no power today. But the social evils will not disappear when he goes. The problem is deeper.

How does your radical criticism stand up to the fact that according to polls Putin is considered a strong leader by the people, and is very popular.

Kasparov: It is naïve to believe the numbers. Many people are simply afraid to speak the truth. Are you surprised? In addition people have a distorted image of the reality around them. The media is under the control of the Kremlin, negative things simply don’t happen. That also makes Putin vulnerable: just two weeks of open, honest reporting, without censorship, would cause the whole system to shake. Especially if the sellout of the country became known. Through the privatisation of the economy a very small group collected billions and took them out of Russia. The strict control of the Government is intended to make sure that nobody seriously investigates if all these transactions were legal.


Espinola you are going to end up in the same straight jackets and concentration camp Granny and I are going to. Maybe they will be co-ed! LOL
