i would like to give you the source but its from a nes-site only in hebrew

[Maaja]

I don't understand Hebrew... so it would be totally useless. Probabaly I'll hear about it (if it's true)

[sypher]

I am not familiar with Putin's policies so could you explian why you hate putin, maaja?

[Maaja]

I have never used the word 'to hate' but 'to despise'. In general because his politics inside 'the Russian Empire'. I've always been very interested about the numerous ethnics who're living there, different nations and peoples. And especially I don't like his actions in Chechnya, that's disgusting, at least for me it is.

[suffianr]

Yes, Putin had the opportunity to, how shall we say, discontinue Yeltsin's shameless genocide of Chechnya when he took over the reins, but he didn't, so what do you think?

[Marxman]

Putin is a continuation of Yeltsin politics, including the continuation of futile Chechnya massacres. Putin was once a KGB agent and that explain his mentality and nature - a Stalinist bueracrat agent. Yeltsin even greeted him and asked his throne to be passed to Putin. The reforms in Russia, made by Putin are just dragging the devious capitalist restoration that will result in NO-FOOD for all people soon. And about NATO, Putin just signed the paper without any democratic system. That's a real democracy, right?

Putin's got a castle? I am not at least surprised. People of Russia are basically scraping for a living, whilst MAFIA lives in luxurious suites and lives a relentless life. And that MAFIA is originated right from the system in the so-called "Federation of Russia." I'm not saying that the previous Stalinist Russia was better, I'm only saying that you can clearly see a result of the falsified prolongued policies of bueracrats. If Russia doesn't plan any socialist revolutions, it's bound to go down in the drain, like Africa.
