Prominent Politician And Putin Critic Shot To Death In Moscow; "Shocked" John Kerry Urges Russia To Bring Justice

Update: John Kerry has decided to comment:

 

Updates from Interfax:

  • PUTIN TAKES NEMTSOV MURDER UNDER PERSONAL CONTROL - PESKOV
  • BORIS NEMTSOV'S KILLING COULD BE ACT OF PROVOCATION, COMMITTED IN THE RUN-UP TO OPPOSITION MARCH SCHEDULED FOR MARCH 1 - SOURCE
  • CRIMINAL CASE OPENED INTO BORIS NEMTSOV'S KILLING - RUSSIAN INVESTIGATIVE COMMITTEE SPOKESMAN MARKIN
  • NEMTSOV'S DEATH APPEARS TO BE CONTRACT KILLING - SOURCE
  • INVESTIGATORS QUESTIONING WITNESSES TO NEMTSOV'S MURDER, CAREFULLY EXAMINING CRIME SCENE - INVESTIGATIVE COMMITTEE SPOKESMAN MARKIN
  • AT LEAST SEVEN SHOTS FIRED AT BORIS NEMTSOV FROM CAR PASSING BY - RUSSIAN INVESTIGATIVE COMMITTEE SPOKESMAN MARKIN

Just nine hours after tweeting "Putin annexed Crimea and is now handing over Siberia to the Chinese," and three ours after calling for a "Russian Spring" march, prominent Vladimir Putin critic and former deputy prime minister (in March 1997 Nemtsov was appointed First Deputy Prime Minister of the Russian Federation, with special responsibility for reform of the energy sector), Boris Nemtsov, was killed in the center of Moscow.

 As The BBC notes, the Russian opposition politician and former deputy PM was shot to death on a Moscow street. Life News is reporting he was shot in the chest four times on a street very close to Red Square.

 

Nemtsov's last 2 tweets today...

The scene of the murder:

As Life News reports,

Late on the Friday night in downtown Moscow on Vasilevsky Spusk was killed prominent politician Boris Nemtsov.

 

According to preliminary data, the killer shot four times at the 55-year-old politician and fled the scene. The opposition leader died on the scene of the shooting.

 

The death of the politician was confirmed by his colleague from the "Republican Party of Russia - People's Freedom Party" Ilya Yashin.

 

"Nemtsov was shot. He's dead - Yashin wrote on his page on "Facebook".

 

Boris Nemtsov was one of the founders and leaders of the "Solidarity" party, co-chairman of a political party RPR-Parnassus, as well as a member of the Coordination Council of Russian opposition

*  *  *

The question now: who did it - a retaliation or a provocation, and if so - who is behind it and why? And of course - how will PUtin respond? 

One thing is certain: the full weight of the western media will fall like a ton of bricks on Putin and on what has already been described as Russia's descent "into darkness." 

More sanctions are almost certainly imminent, as is the escalation over Syria and the Ukraine conflict.

Spot on. Was my first thought. FSB are not amateurs. This Napoli-style execution is either staged or bare incompetence or both. Suspects: CIA or a Ukrainian connection or a combination with the latter working for the first, knowingly or unknowingly. Could be the revenge for a denied favor asked from Yatseniuk or Poroshenko. Whatever the evidences - west will refute anything that does not support the anti-Putin narrative.

Putins appraisal rates have reached all-time highs during the second civil war in Ukraine. Clearly something had to be done. US thought that it is time for a martyr  to turn the sentiment against Putin. It had too look very brutal and ugly therefore. At the same time they got rid of someone who was behind his goals & objectives.

Boris Nemtsov, just like Anatoly Chubais came to power in the 90s and weren't terribly popular at the time. Whoever planned it, if he did, to undermine Putin, got it backwards: liberals are not, and never were, popular in Russia.

If Putin is an evil autocrat and Nemtsov is a threat to Putin, Nemtsov wouldn't be living in Russia let alone organizing opposition marches.

So either Nemtsov isn't a threat, or Putin isn't an evil autocrat. Since you obviously believe the former, Putin has zero motive.

You are wrong even if you are right. Quite the conundrum.

I wonder if Russian politicians bother to issue statements on their sentiments about investigations and justice whenever an American of some kind of prominence or notoriety gets killed. For example, were there calls for a proper investigation of Vince Foster's suicide from Russian politicians? Just asking the question... Maybe there was or maybe Kerry's statement is a great example of American exceptionalism where our government leaders feel an actual entitlement to poke their noses into any international event they feel like. Because hey... Everything is going just swimmingly well for us in the States. So well in fact... our politicians having nothing to do at all but tweet about foreign affairs.

Hi Conscious, 

 

I get your points, I do. However, consider the age this zionist Abramovich became a billionaire - and consider the field.  It wasn't like "Apple" or "microsoft" or genetic research even! No, it was mining and energy. Now look back at the date.  It was all happening during the gansters with guns in suits era.  

 

Thus, he stole the nation (people)'s wealth.  Sure, he's got a post in Serbia somewhere - and that's to make sure he doesn't run away too far - with Russia's assets. 

 

I do watch football - and Gazprom is the official sponsor of the Champions League, not chelsea's sponsor per se.  

 

Before every champions league match, you get a Gazprom advert complete with Tchaikovsky's overture in the background.  

 

But yeah, it pisses of the european public something aweful!

OK, now that we got that out of the way, what were we talking about ... oh yeah, Roman Abromovich. Yes, I agree he jumped in on the Zionist Mafia gang-rape of Russia. So reviewing what happened when Putin came to power, the kleptocrats got three choices - Run away, like Berezovsky (London/Ascot)and the Rusal guy (Tel Aviv). Get assests clawed back and go to jail like Khdorkovsky. - or - Reach an accomidation with The State. Something like, give up some assets, support the state and play by nicer rules going forward. In return, retain wealth. I mean, when communism collapsed, it slowly dawned on everyone there that you can't have capitalism without capitalists.

Another way to look at it is, Abromovich was given the option and chose to identify as a Russian.

Taking the people's money? True, but sadly, who doesn't? Does Warren Buffet have clean hands?

Gazprom and CFC. Check the led banner going around the pitch at Stamford Bridge. The digitized banner that borders the playing field. Last time I checked, admitedly, a while ago, Gazprom in blue letters was the only thing going by.

There is a anti-Putin network operating within Russia with Mikhail Khodorkovsky as the most prominent member. Khodorkovsky was under the wrong impression that his contacts would give him protection in his fight against Putin. He paid dearly for it. He was bailed out on the highest political level and personally escorted by the former foreign minister of Germany, H.D. Genscher in a government aircraft on his way to the exile in Swizzerland. Khodorkovsky was a high calibre contact person to the US and it is safe to assume that Boris was a member of club, possibly of the inner circle. Looks like he was sacrificed as some sort of martyr inspiring some sort of a Russian spring.

The story of Khodorkovsky's bailout in 2013 really goes to show how deeply entrenched this cabal is in the West.

Khodorkovsky, along with Berezovsky and Gusinsky, was also into the Davos pact of 1996 which was about to get Yeltsin reelected.

They had a very good run with their asset grabs, see Bill Browder and his Hermitage fund. Browder has been banned and declared as a threat to national security in 2006. He was peddling similar lines recently in the British press as Nemtsov, that Putin threatened to kill him.

Browder is the 'man behind the Magnitsky Act' which is sancshuns on Russian officials.

Gusinsky also has an interesting story of getting a 'get out of jail card' after he got arrested in Athens in 2003. "Intense pressure from American leaders (mainly from US ambassador in Athens Tomas Miller), Israeli officials and the European Jewish Congress on the Greek government led to Gusinsky's release within five days."

All zio trolls should learn from this, how they're being seen as disposable pawns by their masters.

X-defiler, 

 

I don't know if you are or you aren't - I'll take your word for it. 

 

Regarding Putin, I don't think it is a case of "cock worship" as you'd put it.  Rather, most of the people here are constitutionalists - they don't want any Zionist Sponsored Wars.  

 

They don't benefit anyone except the Zionists.  

 

Perhaps there's an admiration for the way Putin has to deal with the Zionist-Bankster scum that keep pushing the Zionist agenda, at the expense of The Americans, the Brits, the Mainland Europeans, the ordinary muslims, the palestinians, the people of latin america, etc etc...

 

Basically, anyone who is a Goyim is likely to suffer. Because even Kabalah teachings (that "hip" version of the manual that the tribe carry around) talk about the souls of the goy being impure. 

 

So, maybe, given the way Putin has dealt with the central banking cartel is a reason to admit that he's doing something right!

Agreed 100%. The solution to the problem of parasites is to kill it and enoculate against it once and for all. But I see a lot of mouths on Zerohedge and no doers. I think its time to put your money, family, safety and security where your mouth is. Non of you guys are going to do shit until its too late. This is witnessed by the "Putin is better than the Barry" crowd. 

So when I say that the world is better off under a Jewish master than a Chinese or a Russian master it is under the assumption that no one on this site has the balls to do anything that they claim to believe in.

Wether or not people have "done something" has no bearing on and in no way validates your false assertion that living under the Zionist version of Jewish Fascism is preferable to some other system of government. Obviously, you like living under the Zino version of Jewish Fascism. One can easily imagine why.

Best analysis yet.  Recently they killed the Argentina prosecutor the day before he was testify to make it look like he had evidence to convict the head of state.  Even left a copy some sort of arrest warrent in the room (if he was killed to avoid giving info they would have taken that document).

Those cooperating with the jmafia better make sure they benefit their masters better alive than using thieir murder to taint the opponent.

Wonder if there are instigators already set to be in the march and start violence.

To the downgraders, it'r not that I believe Putin is an angel - what with russian banking links to the Cabal and all - but I do believe that Putin is too smart and subtle a geostrategist to commit such a blunder. Western power ploys have placed him in the position where he can play the good guy and win, and he knows it.

 

Also the timing is so abrupt that it seems designed to maximize outrage and airtime, rather than the other way around.

I do believe that Putin is too smart and subtle a geostrategist to commit such a blunder.

Ham-handed fuckery like this is a US tradition. The gang in Vichy DC has been using this playbook for decades, and will continue to do so until it blows up in their faces.

Western power ploys have placed him in the position where he can play the good guy and win, and he knows it.

For those few who can step outside of the emotional blinders and gut-level, unthinking reactions created by their immersion in total Cold War propaganda since the day they were placed in front of the TV, it is plain to see that in the US-induced crises in both Syria and Ukraine, the government and president of the Russian Federation have indeed been the good guys.

I think a lot of Ukrainians wish they could go back a little over a year ago to the 21 February Agreement. You know, the one signed by Yanukovich, Yatsenyuk, Tyahnibok, and Klichko, and endorsed by the foreign ministers of Germany, France, and Poland. It would have left Ukraine intact and prevented a lot of killing and destruction. Too bad the US government used goon squads to veto it.

But hey, the gang in Vichy DC really cares about Ukrainians, so this was just showing tough love or something like that.

Also the timing is so abrupt that it seems designed to maximize outrage and airtime, rather than the other way around.

Of course. Remember the US-orchestrated 'democracy' protests in Hong Kong last year? Most won't, and those who do will only have a vague recollection. They were a failure (because they were recognized for what they were) and quietly rotated out of the news cycle.

There are those in the regime change gang from Vichy DC who are convinced that the operation in Hong Kong failed because it wasn't pushed hard enough, it wasn't violent enough, people didn't die, et cetera. If only some blood had been spilled, it would have worked.

Now, with their project in Ukraine having failed in every worst way possible, DC has come to stand for Desperate Criminals. Hong Kong was a failure, and Russia and Putin have thwarted them in Syria and Ukraine. In their flailing desperation to regain credibility and remove the Russian thorn in their side, the Vichy DC gang will resort to increasing violence and flimsier propaganda. They will also make more mistakes, which makes them an even bigger threat to humanity.
