    Like Trump, Putin can get away with anything, and so he does whatever he pleases. It is also remarkable that Putin actually does have a bodycount, but Hillary Clinton has been falsely accused of doing the same sort of thing.

    Putin critic, Russian activist Alexei Navalny on a ventilator; poison in tea suspected

    Russian opposition figure Alexei Navalny is unconscious in intensive care after a suspected poisoning, his spokeswoman said Thursday.

    The anti-corruption campaigner and staunch critic of President Vladimir Putin fell ill while on a flight back to Moscow from the Siberian city of Tomsk, Kira Yarmysh said on Twitter.

    Yarmysh said Navalny began to feel unwell after drinking tea that appeared to have been laced with a toxin. Russia's state news agency Tass confirmed Navalny is being treated for poisoning in a hospital in Omsk, where his plane made an emergency landing. Citing the chief doctor at the hospital, Tass said he is in grave condition.

    Putin critics meet tragedy
    Many of Putin's opponents – journalists, politicians, former associates – have died in violent or suspicious circumstances, both at home and abroad.

    Prisons and poisons, yes. Being a critic and opponent of Putin in Russia is a very dangerous job.

    Oh well, I guess Navalny's 'regime change' handlers feel he's more use to them dead than alive. At least dead they can put the blame on Putin. They never give up do they?

    Didn't they kill their last regime change stooge outside the Kremlin? This should be a lesson to all those who attend Soros' and the CIA's seminars. If you fail, you're a goner.

    And never shirk to do our work,
    to further our criteria.
    Of lying killing if we must,
    regardless if it's fair and just.


    That way they'll know
    that we don't care
    and if they're smart,
    then they'll beware. - Jeannette

    Jenny, you really should have some kind of evidence to base this on, shouldn't you? Just look at what a pro-Putin stooge you have become.

    From the party that wants our government to have more power. Just remember that the same government you want controlling your life may serve you tea one day.

    My comment was devoid of emotion and was properly hinged. Your dodge was artful.

    No you should have evidence before assuming that someone who attended a regime change seminar in the US, and who wasn't able to get more than a 2 to 8 percentage of the vote would be a threat to Vladimir Putin. More of a threat to Putin would be his communist opponent, since his percentage was higher - but he's alive and well now isn't he?

    Anyway if it wasn't for all those false flag poisonings in London, and the other killings that Washington and Britain's propagandists tried to attribute to Vladimir Putin, then it is feasible that Navalny might have been poisoned by Moscow. Navalny had been given quite a few warnings to stop his illegal protests, and even spent time in jail because of them.

    If Navalny was involved in the protests in Russia's Far East, which seems likely, then he was being treasonous and dangerous. The protests were very serious and pushing for independence from the Russian Federation, so Putin might have felt enough is enough.

    So was it Putin, or could Navalny have wanted out after his last failed attempt - or was it a failed attempt? Maybe he didn't know that the protests in the Far East were for a break up of the Federation, something he might not have agreed with.

    If he wanted 'out', then he would certainly be more of an asset dead than alive to the ones he worked for. Who knows! It's all speculation.

    Navalny is a dog that does not bite. It's a matter of time before the owner gets rid of it.

    The problem is not the rhyme or what I'm trying to project. It's that the words have to have the right flow to them, and everything has to have the right rhythm. I find the last sentences very difficult.

    Understandable. I’m far from any kind of literary genius myself.

    Why Alexey Navalny is Important in Russia and the World
    A look at how Navalny challenges Putin’s regime
    March 15, 2018

    The Kremlin’s political machine is shaping popular expectations about March 18th’s presidential election in Russia. For more than a year prior to the vote, the outcome of this election has been clear. In late 2016, First Deputy Head of the Presidential Administration Sergei Kiriyenko announced that President Putin would be re-elected with 70% of the vote and with 70% turnout in an contest that would serve as a “referendum on trust.” Mass media and Kremlin voices assure us that this victory will come with limited fraud at the ballot box. Studies demonstrate that victory will be achieved through a complicated electoral management system that has been honed over Putin’s nearly two decades of rule. The management system includes widespread mobilization of voters at their workplaces, schools and universities, and through their families, using both incentives and threats. Aided by this system, President Putin will defeat seven rivals handpicked to divide the opposition and illustrate his support across the ideological spectrum.

    Like all Russian elections since 1995, this one is about power not ideas. President Putin has not presented voters with a bright vision of Russia’s future. For example, in his campaign address to his political party, United Russia, President Putin simply recycled the highlights of past contests. The 2018 campaign is devoid of solutions to the significant problems facing Russia’s political system, economy, and society. Mr. Putin’s support is based on his bold intervention in international affairs, which has exploited divisions within and between other countries rather than build capacity to influence global politics. Even this boldness rests heavily on a re-envisioning of the structure of the Cold War, rather than on leadership in a new multi-polar, globalized world. This vision remains the only message that is broadcast on state television.

    Yet, despite all the advantages that the non-democratic regime bestows on its incumbent, there is little discussion of the inherent bias in Russian elections embodied by the treatment of Alexey Navalny. Navalny is an opposition leader and political innovator who has repeatedly challenged the regime at the ballot box, on the streets, and through new media platforms. He is barred from this election despite building a national campaign organization that relied on young activists to meet ballot access requirements.

    ... https://publicseminar.org/2018/03/why-alexey-navalny-is-important-in-russia-and-the-world/

    Jenny should spend some time learning about Russia's political system and understanding just how Putin controls and manipulates it to his own gain.

    The last regime change stooge?....
    How come the opposition is automatically a foreign asset?

    Btw please prove your claim that Nemtsov studied in the US or attended any seminars.

    The killing took place a few days before he took part in a protest march against Russia's involvement in the Donbas War and a crisis in Russia in 2014-2015.

    On February 10, 2015, less than three months before the assassination, Nemtsov said he may be afraid he will be killed by Putin. LINK

    Navalny was charged two times on dubious charges.
    While the appeal verdict left him a free man, the conviction itself was upheld, meaning he is barred from running for public office.
    Navalny has always insisted the accusations against him are politically motivated.

    This poisoning is politically related.

    I doubt that he will survive. He will be remembered as a brave man.


    Do you know what is the current political opposition to Putin? An opposition made by him to play the fools. Straight from the KGB handbook on eliminating dissident:
    [​IMG]
    In 2013, Andrei Nechaev created the "opposition" party "Civil Initiative", which in 2018 nominated Ksenia Sobchak as a presidential candidate.

    Putin choose US President. If Putin wants someone to be in prison, this person is in prison. You can ask Khodorkovsky about it. Or do you think that Navalny is more powerful than Putin?

    I don't think so.
    As I don't think there is a rule of law and democracy in Russia.

    Who says he was poisoned?

    Evidence?

    More ridiculous Putin-bashing?
