Leading Russian opposition politician shot dead in Moscow.

Ban - 1 week - personal abuse.

back to topic

I can see this thread being steered towards a Russia V USA, who is worse discussion, a complete derailment imo.
But I suppose people need the basics to be able to understand the conspiracy which would mean them coming around to not following the western media sentiment that it is Russia who is the aggressor of the planet and the danger to our security.
As pointed out it is clear the USA has been the main aggressor over the last period of recent geopolitical history, boasting the most imprisoned people per population, the most involvement in forgein conflicts and consequently the most people to die under the directive of governmental policy.
It is the US federal reserve and wall street who control our finances and set the prices for our commodities and who bankroll institutions who bankrupt countries all over the world such as the IMF and world bank.
Its the US who target countries such as Iran, Syria, Iraq and Libya, countries who still have their own central banks and have not been raided yet.

Its the USA who supply the weapons, logistics and moral support to the countries who are committing war crimes such as Israel and even creating and funding "terrorist" organisations such as Isis and Al-Quaeda so as to use them to topple governments and have an excuse to get involved militarily so as to further their agenda.

For balance, Russia has had its shady dealings and caught out, in no overall picture can it be claimed that Russia has imposed its will on the countless millions of people who are directly affected by the US policy of governmental change, financial destruction and in-debtness to the IMF/world bank, war and influence.
I for one, and I'not alone, believe that on the grander scheme of things, Russia is less a threat to the future of human society then America's corporations, mass survaillance, financial institutions and geo-political war mongering.
The USA is truely a mirror of the British empire at its height, changing governments and exerting its will across the globe.
And the scary thing is, like the fall of the British empire, as it started to crumble from the inside out, it got more desperate to exert the power it wields so as to keep its dwindling influence.
I am worried as to what will come of all this, and am quick enough to be open minded about anything directed against any of America's boogeymen paraded on their media being food for a population who must be kept at war against somebody, the terrorist, the russians, the chinese, isis/isal, al-queada etc....
I also find it only logical that an empire as big as the US who has some much global power would rountinely sacrifice people for its own cause, because that is what a country who is persistently trying to expand its influence has to do to keep up progress.
The US could have well and easily taken out that opposition politician so as to create internal problems for Russia, and it would follow a timeline of recent period of "turning the screws" so as to say on Russia, with the current economic warfare it has initiated on Russia, which has most recenly seen the price of energy drop so as the squeeze the Russian economy.
Whats this space and I would be open minded about anything the Western media blames on Russia.
One must always think about this in a wider context, why is the US turning against Russia, would it have anything to do with Obama's pivot to Asia perhaps?
We are seeing the complete destabilization of the Middle East and now are seeing the US increase its presence in the South China Sea and economic warfare on Russia, we are looking at the raiding of Libya's gold reserves in the very near future and more to come against Russia I can only suspect.

We in one way get to experience the drama of large continental sizes countries face off against each other, but the phrase "history always repeats itself" is one that comes to mind and I have a feeling that we have been squaring up to a major conflict for a long while now which is slowly gathering momentum across a globe sick of corporate/financial enslavement, war and the destruction of democracy in the name of democracy.

That's my two cents, feel free to pick me apart and I'll try respond soon enough.

Cheers for lending your ears!

One thing that bothered me about the whole scenario was where were the bodyguards? This is a guy who according to previous interviews perceived a threat to his life. His Girlfriend of four years would have been use to the presence of security guards, so why dismiss them. Is it possible the shooter , who, according to his girlfriend, was behind them, was the bodyguard (although she said he had dismissed them). Or maybe he was told that his girlfriend was the hit, (the outrage from such an incident would pull him from obscurity in Russia) so he dismissed them voluntarily. The absence and reasons for dismissing his security guards should be questioned.

Mr. Putin is only "liberating" oppressed people, there is nothing to worry about. Now quick, look at these Americans exploiting third world countries.

Oh please. have a look at Nulands efforts to stir up conflict during a ceasefire and then decide who the aggressors are.

I have no idea why Nemtsov is described as a "leading" opposition politician?
I can only presume the western propaganda machine has built him up into a major opponent to Putin with popular and widespread support.
The REAL opposition in Russia are the communists and social democrats and they were 100% behind Putin when he returned Crimea to Russia (after Khrushchev's illegal act in 1954)
