I like that you didn’t argue with me about the ‘Comrade Chekist’ comment. That says a lot all on its own.
I ignore personal attacks (usually). Maybe you would like the testimony of someone a little more familiar with the practices of the Cheka/KGB.
⢠âVladimir Putin â yes, he was an officer of the intelligence services, but he was not a KGB investigator, nor was he the head of a camp in the gulag. As for service in foreign intelligence, that is not a negative in any country â sometimes it even draws praise. George Bush Sr. was not much criticized for being the ex-head of the CIA, for example.â
âPutin inherited a ransacked and bewildered country, with a poor and demoralized people. And he started to do what was possible â a slow and gradual restoration. These efforts were not noticed, nor appreciated, immediately. In any case, one is hard pressed to find examples in history when steps by one country to restore its strength were met favorably by other governments.â
