It’s gotten to the point where the FRussians just need to be ridiculed.

Ignorance is strength... or something like that huh?

Nemtsov is one of Russia's 'veteran' liberal politicians. and had "friends" in many circles... considered one of the darlings of western bankers.... In 2004 he supported Ukraine's Orange Revolution and became an economic adviser for Pres. Viktor Yushchenko, then rose up the ranks.....This puts Boris Nemstov firmly in bed with Boris Berezovsky... Nemstov & Chubais and Kormomososky were clearly running the show under Yeltin who absolutely knew that!....but when Yeltzin's health crashed it was Berezovxky who put Putin in office rather than Yeltzin's boy Nemtsov....they wanted "new blood"... and bypassed Nemtsov who could not provide the "protection" YEltzin needed to leave and that of his family...Putin could and did.

Berezovky was out to get Putin at any expense for booting out the Oligarchs after Putin took office.... he spent all his money doing so and finally committed suicide after he went broke. He's an interesting study though...loved the limelight and well known in WAshington circles. Berezovsky wanted the Presidency as well...once Putin was gone...

This fellow also opposes Putin and is a US sweetheart....waiting on the sidelines to take Putins.s place. He was jailed for ten years almost, Putin let him go...he is actively opposing Putin currently but will not go back into Russia

And let's not forget the Gas Princess here seeking Ukraine Pres..who is currently serving still in Ukraine's government..... who said if she didn't win she'd create chaos in Ukraine....she has her own army.
