Russian Barbarism Unbound II
Is anyone surprised?
No sooner had former First Deputy Prime Minister of the Russian Federation Boris Nemtsov published the latest installment (Russian language link, our translation is forthcoming) in his “Itogi” series exposing with documented sources the utter failure of the Putin regime to properly manage the country than Putin’s neo-Soviet Gestapo moved in and seized 100,000 copies of it.
The Russophile and Russian-nationalist scum would like to contend that Boris Nemtsov is a “loser” nobody in Russia supports. There are two rather obvious flaws in this line of “thinking.” First, Nemtsov has either been exluded from the ballot or savagely supressed as a candidate, and then faced with stuffed ballot boxes, every time he’s tried to seek office. Second, if Nemtsov really were a harmless laughingstock, why in the world would the Kremlin take the trouble to confiscate his publication?
The fact is, and for good reason, the Putin Kremlin is obviously terrified of Nemtsov.
Fearless and every bit as charismatic as Barack Obama, Nemtsov physically towers over the diminutive Putin/Medvedev tandem and has real credentials as a democratically elected regional executive in Nizhny Novgorod to his credit. Whereas Putin shamelessly plagiarized his thesis, Nemtsov’s original research in support of his White Paper series is respected around the world, even being praised by the vaunted New York Review of Books.
So there are plenty of reasons for Putin to fear and envy Nemtsov. Putin cowers in the shadows, afraid to meet men like Nemtsov and Khodorkovsky in fair combat. So he pushes them off the ballot, harrasses them, jails them, and pretends he is “winning.”
The history of the USSR says otherwise.
Fearless and every bit as charismatic as Barack Obama, Nemtsov physically towers over the diminutive Putin/Medvedev tandem and has real credentials as a democratically elected regional executive in Nizhny Novgorod to his credit
Please refrain from comparing anybody of worth to Obama. Obama is a product of the left and pumped up media boy.
A fair point, but there’s no doubt Obama has charisma, and Nemtsov would have that same weapon in his arsenel, very much different from the little dwarves who run the Kremlin, if he was given a level playing field to use it. And it would have the same effect as has Obama’s charm, and backed up by substance it would make him a truly awesome candidate when compared to Putin.
oh if only the 10 leading Russian opposition non-official movements had a way to express itself, they would surely have altogether more than a 2% public support.
Kolchak stole my thunder! Lol! But Pres. B.O. only has charisma because his fawning, brainless media allows it. Listening to his speeches is actually quite painful, just from an oratory standpoint. I won’t even mention content—“hot air”. Now you want charisma; try Ronald Reagan. Even in the face of adversity, a hostile media and Congress “there you go again!”; Reagan was able to inspire a nation. Nemstov, unfortunately, does not have the outlets which were available to Reagan; but he has the CONTENT. And it is the content which scares the hell out of Putin & Ko.; hence they need to shut this man down.
Oh, come on. Novodvorskaya, Nemtsov, Limonov, Shenderovich.
Every one person of the named is, frankly, perceived as a restless clown by most Russians.
Being a clown in the view of your potential electors is hardly a thing any politician desire. A victim, a hero, a martyr – maybe, but not a clown, right?
So grow up. These are not the “opposition”. They are grant-feeding leeches.
With all this circus, Russia still does not have a normal system of oppositional politics. Because seeing our “Babolero” (beloved Baba Lera, Valeriya Novodvorskaya), any normal person, that has something to propose to Russians, would be frightened to name himself an oppositional politician.

Here’s Limonov, another (tragic) clown: http://www.google.ru/images?um=1&hl=ru&newwindow=1&client=firefox&hs=pP6&rls=org.mozilla%3Aru%3Aofficial&tbs=isch%3A1&sa=1&q=eduard+limonov&aq=f&aqi=&aql=&oq=&gs_rfai=
They all turn our oppositional politics into a freaks’ show. Which is very sad, if you’re interested in my Russian opinion.
Give me a break! First of all, the photo of this “Russian” patriot was likely made 25 years ago, now he looks quite different. Second, he is a Jewish patriot of the US where he would like to immigrate.
Are you saying women in 2010 don’t find Nemtsov handsome and sexy?
If so, the actual facts prove you a LIAR. Just two years ago, he was voted THE sexiest man in Russia, you brainless ape.

As for your racist slur, anyone can see you for what you are, a crude thug deserately afraid of Nemtsov’s brand of democracy, which would liquidate you and your ilk.
Not that the anti-Semitic slurs from Russians, or should I say Russophiles, are very surprising to me, but where is Mr. Voice of Reason? I remember a short while ago he was arguing that there is no anti-Semitism in Russia, and how many Jews are prominent in this field, and in that field…
Aw come on RV give that brain damaged liar RoV (alias RTR) a break, you and I (and for that matter, the rest of the sane bloggers on this magic “Blog”) know this fact. But sadly he and his ‘ilk’ are totally divorced from reality – in which case you may as well talk to a brick wall for all the good it will do.
In short his articles are always a figment of his wild imagination or some communist propaganda rag, which control and run riot in his ‘up top’ reasoning department.
Well, you are right. I am not surprised that a lot of Russophiles here are anti-Semitic; actually compared to some previous posts, this Mr. Amigo’s slur is relatively mild.
What really disappoints me that Mr. Voice claims to be Jewish and defends anti-Semites at the same time. Oh, well, as you said, what’s new about that
Yes. It clearly comes across as a statement that there are two kinds of citizens, Gentiles, who may be patriots, and Jews who cannot.
RV, your conclusion has one very big flaw: he never said that.
He said exactly “a Jewish patriot of the US where he would like to immigrate”, which means “a Jewish patriot of the US”, and not “Gentiles, who may be patriots, and Jews who cannot”.
Jews can be patriots of Russia, I guarantee this :D
I have lived long enough to be able to understand exactly what he meant. If he simply wanted to say that Mr. Nemtsov would like to immigrate to the United States, then there was no need to emphasize that Mr. Nemtsov is a Jew, was there?
Is emphasizing that a Jew is Jew antisemitism? Then what about emphasizing that an American is American, or Russian is Russian? What a nonsense. The problem is that some Jews see antisemitism everywhere.
And in the case of Russia, they would be right….
Why not, Ron? Out of pure contrarianism, let me argue some more.
The US has the largest Jew piopulation in the world, so that’s quite logical he wants to go there. And that this might be mentioned in a post.
Hello voice of retardation, still playing with yourself I see.
The results of his “work” as a governor of Nizhny Novgorod region:
Life expectancy (1991-96): -5,2%
Mortality: +27,7%
Construction industry: -33,5%
All considerably worse than the Russia’s average during those years.

He looks more like a Saakashvili of Nizhny Novgorod :D
You again deleted my post (sixth time) . No matter, I’ll post the same comments again and again.
That is how the “sexiest” Russian “politician” looks now, here you go! http://www.newsland.ru/News/Detail/id/482986/
Here, Nemtsov looks like a well developed alcoholic.
According to the source you cite, the second sexiest politician in Russia is Putin. Any comment on this fact? You are a joke, LR.

The terror of the police!!!

And the answer of the rebels some hours later! Everyday-life in “Russia”
Dagestani rebels send a message to the pro-russian policemen in Dagestan! Interesting!

A picture of the lawyer-girl,who was beaten by the pro-russian dagestani policemen some days ago
sascha:
It is a beastly war sascha. Both sides behave badly. Remember the Beslan school??
Or September 11, 2001?? Both sides behaved badly.
You mean the CIA and the FBI?
First! What does the war in Dagestan have to do with 9/11???? NOTHING!!!!!!!!
Second! I am pro-american!!!
Third! The “Jamaat Shariat” is not behaving badly.They are killing police-terrorists.In Dagestan and in russia as a whole policemen are no policemen like in our “Western World”,in Dagestan they are killers,butchers,torturers and rapists.Killing policemen is a duty for every responsible young man in Dagestan!
@First! What does the war in Dagestan have to do with 9/11???? NOTHING!!!!!!!!
Who knows?
@Second! I am pro-american!!!
Here I cannot help you, take more medicine.
@Killing policemen is a duty for every responsible young man in Dagestan!
Why are you in Germany then and not in Dagestan, killing policemen? Du bist weich im Kopf, Sasha-s-uralmasha.

You’re so pro-american, that your source of choice is called:
“jamaatshariat.com”.
You’re a twelve year old boy who still thinks Muslim gangs in the neighborhood are cool.
You don’t even see how laughable you are.
sascha: Beslan is on the mind of the Russians.
Russia does not engage in mindless violence. There is always purpose. A criminal gang gets control of the government and refuses to follow modern, civilized rules of government. The criminal gang does not care if the country (Russia) sinks to the level of a third world rats nest.
Islam is different. Islam perpetrates violence with no purpose at all. Islam does not care if a calamity is perpetrated on Islam itself as a result of its own small, stupid actions (Beslan, 9-11, etc.).
Islam just goes ahead with its small, stupid actions and then whines about how terrible the Russians behave.
The Americans do it different. We try to make a friend out of an enemy. It kind of sticks in your craw, but decades later they will not be attacking us. This is why Bush tried so hard to turn Iraq into a democracy when everyone thought he was crazy.
Amazingly enough it seems to be working. Iraq seems to be behaving like a normal country.
In addition, Saddam was hanged by his own people nice, neat and legal.
Bush will be commended by history for the biggy he pulled off.
Oh, Ron, why do you say “out of an enemy”?
Just look at each and every Muslim state in this world, they are all bestest friends of the US!
Well, not really Dimbo,
You RuSSians of course are great friends with Iran, and the statelets run by Hezbollah and Hamas.
Is it the same idiot that accused me of changing the theme?

Of course, according to the russian standard even good old brejnev with his uncontrollable men-kissing sprees would be a sex symbol for poor russian muzkhyks.
By the way, dorogoy drug, the pogroms of ethnic russians in kyrgyzystan is truly poetic justice. I predict that more and more russians will be coming home from the occupied territories e.g., ukraine, chechnia, dagestan, kabarda and above all, central asian countries…Russia will have to provide jobs for those millions.. they could start with looting corpses of the victims murdered by russians [Smolensk] – it will be a start…..
To ahahah, usa
@By the way, dorogoy drug, the pogroms of ethnic russians in kyrgyzystan is truly poetic justice.
Says much about you. Did you also manage to have your orgasm when Lech Kaczinski’s jet with a good hundred of russophobes on board crashed?
What is “kabarda”, dura? Go give a BJ to somebody, kabarda ebanaja.

“Of course, according to the russian standard even good old brejnev with his uncontrollable men-kissing sprees would be a sex symbol for poor russian muzkhyks.”
Thats a perfect argument against LR and her claim about “sexiest Russian politician”. Bravo, little pussy from usa.
