Rights activist arrested at anti-Kremlin protest
Since coming to power 10 years ago, Vladimir Putin has rolled back many of the democratic achievements of the 1990s.
Meaning he cracked down on the establishment of the Jewish mafia in the former Soviet republics and Russia proper.
Yesterday’s protest ended an hour after it started when 40 helmeted riot police joined the hundreds of city police in clearing the square.
Yeah, good thing those guys never show up at AmeriKan protests, pfft.
"Russia may hike fines for protesters; Prison sentences also may lengthen" by Ellen Barry, New York Times | January 6, 2010
Never been big Putin fans.
MOSCOW - Svetlana Antropova, who leads Pikalevo’s trade union:
“To begin with, the government should not put people in such a position where they go out to the street [in protest]. For us it was the last resort. There had been no reaction from authorities at any level, not the municipal, not the local, not the regional, not from the central government.’’
You gotta do what you gotta do!
The police did not interfere and three days later, Prime Minister Vladimir V. Putin paid a personal visit and ordered the owners of the local factories to pay back wages and resume production.
See: When Terrorism Works
According to Parliament’s website, the law was commissioned at the request of the president and the government, in part as a response to an increase in terrorist attacks on transport, including the Nov. 27 bombing of the Nevsky Express....

Hmmmmmm!

And ON CUE(?):
MAKHACHKALA, Russia - A suicide bomber blew up an explosives-packed car at a police station in Russia’s troubled North Caucasus yesterday, killing six officers and wounding at least 16 people, officials said....
Was it "Al-CIA-Duh?"
The bomber detonated the explosives at the station gate after police stopped him from driving through, Colonel Shamil Guseinov, city police chief, said. Those killed were at the gate, including three officers in a police jeep that blocked the attacker’s path, he said. Dagestan, Ingushetia, and Chechnya, all predominantly Muslim republics in the North Caucasus, saw a sharp rise in violence last year, with many of the nearly daily attacks targeting police and other officials.
Doesn't it seem like that was true of ALL MUSLIMS?
The violence sweeping the impoverished southern region is increasingly being described as a civil war between Kremlin-supported administrations and Islamic militants.
Ever notice those guys show up wherever USraeli interests are involved?
Widespread abuses against civilians by police, including abductions, torture, and killings, have helped to swell the militants’ ranks.
Same thing as when AmeriKa drops bombs on people!
Suicide bombings are occurring with growing frequency. No one immediately claimed responsibility for yesterday’s attack.
And I'M SMELLING a FALSE FLAG, folks!
The AmeriKan MSM just leaving it there with the "growing frequency" is also a signal.

Pipeline Geopolitics: Major Turnaround. Russia, China, Iran Redraw Energy Map
We are witnessing a new pattern of energy cooperation at the regional level that dispenses with Big Oil. Russia traditionally takes the lead. China and Iran follow the example. Russia, Iran and Turkmenistan hold respectively the world's largest, second-largest and fourth-largest gas reserves. And China will be consumer par excellence in this century. The matter is of profound consequence to the US global strategy.
That is what is behind the rotten press and increased attacks, isn't it?
Russia OKs changes to human rights court
Russian lawmakers yesterday ended years of resistance and ratified an international agreement intended to strengthen and speed up the work of the European Court of Human Rights. The decision marked a change in the position of the Kremlin-controlled State Duma, which had rejected the document in 2006, fearing it could be used by the West to punish Russia.
Doing everything they can to avoid a war, huh?
