In Russia, nationalists turn on Putin
Reuters ^ | Thu Dec 1, 2011 | Thomas Grove

Reuters) - Jonibek Kosimov had been missing for nearly a week when his cousin found his body in the morgue. Kosimov, 24, had been discovered in the early autumn sunlight of a forest clearing near the monastery city of Sergiev Posad outside Moscow. His throat had been slit, his face slashed by 21 knife wounds.

Turning to relatives and friends -- migrant laborers, mostly -- the dead man's cousin Shaukatulloh Makhmudov collected the nearly 25,000 roubles ($810) he needed to pay the morgue and send his cousin home. Three days later, on September 10, the corpse was laid in a zinc-lined box, loaded into the cargo compartment of a Boeing 757 and flown to the family's native Tajikistan, on the southern fringe of the former Soviet Union.

"It's not the first time they killed a relative," said Makhmudov. "I've already sent three or four bodies back to Tajikistan. Who do I turn to for help, Medvedev or Putin?"

Well, I’m not supporting racist killings but illegal muslim aliens are responsible for about 9 in 10 sexual assaults in every Russian city let alone a number of other violent crimes.

There's a comedy show over there called "Nasha Rasha" with a nightly skit about these two Tadjik laborers remodeling Kseniya Sobchak's luxury apartment and showing them doing lots of insulting (to Tadjiki) activities, such as cooking her cat in the microwave (first leaving a misspelled suicide note) and making pilaf in a satellite dish.

Funnier than heck.

The same show has skits with two bums living by the dumpster in a nouveau riche town ("What? Only 4G on that smartphone? Toss it!"), a gay metallurgist in Cherlyabinsk, a football team from Omsk ("gas & meat!"), a nasty elementary teacher ("now class, for your homework you have to draw a 100 ruble note, but if you have problems, get one from your mommy's purse"), etc.

Never see anything that funny back in the states.

Violence against non-white minorities and migrants rose dramatically, peaking in 2007-9 when hate groups killed almost 100 people a year

As usual in these articles the amount of violence coming from immigrants towards the native population is never mentioned. Immigrants account for half the total crime in Moscow alone. Muslims slaughter sheep right in the open in residential courtyards and take over public streets for prayers. Yet it seems the native populations are supposed to roll over and say do as you please.

Putin will have to yield on this issue and begin deportations or the Russian public will eventually take action themselves, such is the anger.

So glad I’m not in Russia. I disapprove of Putin’s very existence. His henchmen would have my throat slit.

There's a funny cartoon of Putin and Medvedev singing and dancing for New Year's 2010, with English subtitles:

Medvedev Putin dance new year cartoon duet 2010 Медведев Путин Новый год

There's a 2011 as well, but I can't find one with subtitles.

Did you ever see ‘The Young Ones’ on MTV when it came out?

It sounds like another color revolution (colapse of USSR flashback).

Just the thought of a gay metallurgist is funny. I was going to need a metallurgist for my thesis and lecture recital, but it looks like that’s not going to happen.
