It must be night time in Russia, nobody really defending putin yet.

I shall go to bed expectant that the party line will be sorted by the morning and that he tripped over 4 of his own bullets.

Why even would the CIA want to kill someone who was against Putin anyway?

They are framing Putin,didn't you know?

I don't believe any of that dross,but thats the kind of crap pro Putin posters are posting.

There's nothing to worry about though,Putin has vowed to take charge of the case lol.

Bikers, Fighters And Veterans To Join Moscow Anti-Maidan Rally

Newly formed "Anti-Maidan" group to rally 10,000 for the defense of their homeland

 

 

What do a group of Moscow-based bikers, a female mixed martial arts champion, ultranationalist politicians and some veterans from the Soviet war in Afghanistan have in common?

 

Answer: They are all part of Anti-Maidan, a colorful new Russian “patriotic” movement, whose members vow to fight any “Western-financed” attempt to topple President Vladimir Putin.

 

Formed a little over a month ago, Anti-Maidan is rallying its supporters in central Moscow on Saturday for the first anniversary of the overthrow of Ukraine’s pro-Russian president, Viktor Yanukovych, by protesters based at Kiev’s Maidan opposition camp. Kremlin officials allege that the U.S. orchestrated the Maidan uprising, although no credible evidence has been presented to support this accusation. The slogan for the Anti-Maidan march in Moscow, which is expected to draw a crowd of at least 10,000, is “We won’t forgive, we won’t forget.”

 

“We will not allow the destruction of our state,” said Alexander Zaldostanov, aka Surgeon, the tattooed, leather-clad leader of the Night Wolves motorbike gang, at a recent Anti-Maidan news conference in Moscow.

 

 

Zaldostanov frequently appears in photographs with Putin, and the Kremlin has honored him for his “patriotic” work. The Night Wolves also put on an eye-catching biker show in Crimea after its annexation by Russia last year, depicting the Maidan protesters as Nazis.

 

“The only thing that will force the fifth column to stop is fear,” added Zaldostanov. The “fifth column” is the term used by pro-Kremlin media and activists for opposition figures and journalists. Putin has echoed the sentiment and called opponents of his long rule “national traitors.”

 

Anti-Maidan members also include Dmitry Sablin, an ex-lawmaker from Putin’s ruling United Russia party who is now a senator in Russia’s upper house of parliament. Despite this, the group says it receives no funding or support from the government. However, state-run media outlets have publicized its activities, and a Kremlin-run news agency hosted its debut news conference last month, signs that Anti-Maidan has—at the very least—the backing of the authorities.

 

The group remains a loose alliance of pro-Putin figures and organizations, but has already been in action. Its members were involved in violent clashes with opposition protesters at an anti-Putin rally in central Moscow just after the new year.

 

Around 20 members of the movement, wearing the black-and-orange ribbons that have become the symbol of the pro-Russian rebels in east Ukraine, also attacked opposition activists as they gathered at a café in central Moscow in mid-January.

 

“They burst in shouting slogans and began pushing people around,” said Andrey Bystrov, a member of the unregistered December 5 opposition party. “We called the police, but they didn’t turn up for around 30 minutes.” No charges were brought against the Anti-Maidan activists over the attack.

 

Yulia Bereznikova, the Russian mixed martial arts champion, has also expressed her readiness to “take up weapons” to defend Russia from what Zaldostanov calls the “orange beast,” a reference to the so-called “Color Revolutions” that swept the former Soviet Union in the 2000s.

 

Much of the “muscle” for Anti-Maidan is supplied by members of the National Liberation Movement (NOD), a pro-Kremlin organization whose slogan is “The Motherland! Freedom! Putin!” NOD’s leader, United Russia lawmaker Yevgeny Fyodorov, told Vocativ recently that while he did not approve of violent attacks on opposition figures, he “understood” them. Fyodorov, one of the founding members of United Russia, believes “U.S. agents of influence” secretly control the Russian government and media.

 

State-run media outlets have promoted Saturday’s Anti-Maidan rally, which is set to conclude a short distance from Red Square. Opposition critics are claiming that government employees and students are being forced to attend the rally to boost the numbers. Documents published online, including a mass mail-out to Moscow teachers “requesting” their attendance, appear to back up these claims.

 

“The plan was to get people together in support of an idea,” opposition figurehead Alexei Navalny wrote on Wednesday. “But it’s clear the experiment was a failure.” Faced with the prospect of “200 bikers” at the march, the authorities fell back on the “usual” plan of pressuring teachers, students and so on to attend, alleged Navalny, who was jailed again for 15 days on Thursday for handing out anti-government leaflets.

 

Online, Anti-Maidan supporters maligned the lack of “activity” ahead of the group’s maiden march. “There aren’t so many active people around,” wrote one Anti-Maidan supporter named Boris Akimenko. “But this event is serious!”

 

Despite the distinct lack of buzz around the event, there are true believers. “I’m going on Saturday, for sure,” said Denis Titov, a 43-year-old Moscow lawyer. “True patriots need to stand up and be counted. And I’m ready to do that.”

Rank Fascism if ever there was

At least British holiday makers will be safe in Cyprus.

I can see a few decades of cold war coming on.

Which has to be better than the alternative I suppose.

The proxy war going on in the middle east is simply not generating enough expense or excuses for legislation nor reasons for shortages and for both price and tax hikes.

What you mean coming on? It never went away

What you mean coming on? It never went away

Did you miss the bit where the Berlin Wall came down?

Did you miss the bit where the Berlin Wall came down?

You only think the cold war ended. There were many in Russia, military and civilian who like Putin saw Gorbachev's glasnost and break up of the USSR as a betrayal of major proportions.

Unfortunately one of them, Putin, now runs the show so expect no chance of stability in either the Ukraine or surrounding states from a man bent on reviving the Russian empire
