The other photo is of the Moscow apartment bombings that many assume to have been a government action that went terribly wrong. I tried to get photos of the killing of Anna Politkovskaya and the beatings of other journalists, but didn't find pictures that could clearly and easily convey what happened in a single image.
For all the talk about America being a tyranny now or headed down that road, the praise of Putin makes me wonder if some people's objection may not be that the tyranny isn't tough enough or effective enough or directed at the right people. I wouldn't want an actual (former) KGB man running the US.
I still say he would be better than Obama. But I don’t think you have to worry that Putin will take Obama’s place. I think he is happy where he is. And there are examples of the U.S. not being much better. Waco, Ruby Ridge, Kent State, many suspicious deaths related to Clinton and Obama. We are hardly a beacon of all that is good to the world.
