Pretty screwed up place. And been getting worse over the years. Yes, I've spent time there. No desire to ever go back. RIP Nemtsov.

A tragic event being exploited by media sources with a vested interest.

The media sources with a vested interest would be Putin's propaganda machine, including his mercenary trolls, who are in full battle mode to blame the assassination on Nemtsov's personal life, Muslim terrorists, or provocateurs among the opposition who are impatient to destabilize Russia.

As opposed to all these outside experts so quick to blame their own bugbears, without any evidence to hand whatsoever.

Evidence? Are you kidding? With the murderers themselves conducting the investigation?

How many of you even knew who Boris Nemtsov was before today? Very few of you, I'd wager. But now you are convinced you have the inside track on how he died.

Amazing, sweeping arrogance.

Well, if I responded in kind to your last post, the thread would be locked. Personal attacks must be ignored here, I think. Others familiar with the character and methods of Putin may care to take up the discussion.

But accusing people of murder, without any evidence, is not an attack?

Do you write stuff here merely to rack up a high post count? Is that considered a qualification where you are?

Stay on topic, please. We've just moved on from the personal attack point.

An Anti-Putin politician gets dies mysteriously and Putin, essentially a political strongman shouldn't be suspected? What about the guy that got poisoned in Britain?

Suspicions are one thing. Though at this early stage, any wild assertion is as good as another. But what is being written here and on the provided links is nothing but accusations without evidence to suit political purposes. It is the same nonsense as making claims that Obama isn't a US citizen, is a Muslim, is a Socialist etc., without anything to support such claims.
