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.
Next to Boris Nemtsov was a young woman, born 1991 in Kiev; Nemtsov was shot 7 times from a passing by car - police

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."
Russia just got a whole lot darker.

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

While through such wishes of universal goodwill you so clearly set yourself apart from their ilk.
I wish one of these paid bashers would provide some specifics about why we are supposed to hate the white knight Putin. All they can come up with is the constant, knuckle-draggin', neanderthal line who's intellectual content can be summed up as 'Putin is bad man'. I mean why? What's your beef? He appears to have freed the country from the grip of the Zionist oligarchs. Is that the source of the hate.
nemewn, or kaiserhof, who seems to have the same disease, maybe you can weigh in here. I'll make it simple in terms you can understand. 'Why Putin bad-man'. Thanks.
A real history buff you are. Stalin was a murderer. Stalin is attributed to 20,000,000–40,000,000 deaths as a result of his regime's actions
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_Stalin
watch if you have the patience
Adolf Hitler - The Greatest Story Never Told [pt1] full
"One man's death is a tragedy, a million deaths are merely a statistic" - Joseph Stalin
Stalin was not a Russian. He was a Georgian criminal from youth.
He was a gangster (not unlike Saddam Hussein) that was more ruthless and resourceful than Trotsky and his handlers suspected.
Accordingly, Trotsky could not replace Lenin as his Bankster handlers had planned and Stalin continuously faced threats of assassination and responded (one might conclude) with purges of murderous paranoia until he cornered his designated foe in Mexico in 1940.
Not that that killing necessarily ended the threat to Stalin

Just because you're paranoid and President of the Politburo doesn't mean they're not out to get you...or are they?!!
Let's not leave out Stalin's links to the "tribe"
Stalin was pure evil, I once visited his museum in Gori, Georgia, his birthplace. A very evil place which I will never ever forget
Don't forget the millions of Kulaks murdered by Stalin's Jewish in-laws in Ukraine as well.

Stalin was an employee of the Rothschilds in Baku. He was a barely literate third grade dropout, a violent psychopath, a firebug, a career criminal thug well known to the Russian police. In other words, the perfect NWO employee.
Here's his ugly mug when he got booked after one of his criminal rampages:

better than be nose deep in victoria nudelman's tush. You'd loce to see me dead? Right after you dies of AIDS after watching your family perish in a house fire.
"You are fucking Putin lovers trush, I love to see you all dead!
Even Stalin was not such hoodlum like Putin."
Sounds like you're Hasbara and upset Putin looks to be cleaning up the Jewish problem in Russia, though it's no reason to wish us dead!
If that were Chicago he'd simply disappear.
The Lesson? Get in league with the US department of state and shoot your face off you get your face shot off.
The fact that this fuck hole was critical of Russia trying to protect the interest if it's country and it's people is enough to show his character. Not that he deserved death, but sorry pal, stay away from the den of vipers in your next lifetime.
In Russian sites I follow the news has two hours.
A lot of people saying, "already was late son of a bitch."
Anyone out there remember the Argentine prosecutor who tried to incriminate the President and was suicide?
These people are losing creativity, perhaps nail guns do not work well in the Moscow cold.
If the guy jumped from a building maybe snow will let you live.
There is no way to drown in the lake because the surface is frozen.
There is so much snow that no one goes away.
Hanging would be weird.
Kill the outdoor guy near the Kremlin is much easier to sell in the media.
Admittedly, false flag desperate people to spend ink and paper.
hehe.
This is the end of Putin, what a fucking cunt
Probably a CIA/Mossad hit. If Putin wanted someone gone, it would be done with more finesse.
But the question is, what is this stupid title doing here? "Prominent Russian politician." The guy was not promiment; he wasn't anymore important than any other Western paid shill there; had no future in the politics there, and he was no Russian but Western politician working in Russia. Really stupid title! Like something you could see on CNN or BBC ffs!
Here is such example of 5th column:
http://www.globalresearch.ca/did-a-russian-parliamentarian-just-commit-t...
"An interesting thing happened in Washington recently, and it had nothing to do with Beltway politics, Democrats vs. Republicans, or any of the other standard fare for the middle of the week in mid-January. Rather, a relatively small, little publicized event took place at the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS), a prominent liberal-leaning think tank in Washington. The event, “Russia’s Opposition in a Time of War and Crisis,” featured prominent Russian liberal opposition parliamentarian (member of the Russian Duma) Ilya Ponomarev, a noted critic of Russian President Putin, providing a detailed presentation regarding the current political climate in Russia, and the potential for the ousting or overthrow of the Russian government. Yes, you heard that right. A Russian elected official came to the United States to give a talk about how best to effect regime change in his own country.Ilya Ponomarev prepared an entire PowerPoint detailing his contempt for Russia and his best advice for its ruination.The entire presentation can be viewed here ..."

Isn't the newest "House of Cards" series due for airing in Feb/March? If memory serves, the main character - who is a leading politician vying to become President - personally murdered a journalist chick because she "knew too much". Maybe the Jewish media elites are just hyping up the core "message" of that TV show ["the murderous President on our show is just make-believe, but leaders of evil nations countries really are as EVIL as this!"] on the eve of its release.
/sarc. Seriously though, there's no way Putin had anything to do with killing this guy. To actually believe he did without incontrovertible evidence, you'd also have to believe in precisely the kind of ideological nonsense that would be augmented and substantiated by events such as these - regardless of who instigated them.
Russian Maidan in comming. No really, civil unrest are the new WMD's.
OK, we get it RUSSIA = EVIL, USA = GOOD!!! RUSSIA = EVIL, USA = GOOD!!! RUSSIA = EVIL, USA = GOOD!!! RUSSIA = EVIL, USA = GOOD!!!

Even if that were true, it'd still be small change next to the pentagon "misplacing" trillions on Sept 10, 2001.
And like Putin needs money? Billions and billions of it? His detractors here are projecting their own narrow perception of existence. How about the admiration of his people? I'm going to bet he considers that something worth having. If he didn't have a dime tomorrow, many people would give him a few million.
Reminds me of the often repeated Zionist rant/canard that Yassar Arrafat was imprisoned in Ramallah, being gassed, shelled, shot at and poisoned, all the while having his Semetic balls irradiated off because he was in it for the money!! Like he's embezzeling ... to what end? A Swiss bank account that he can access in a future existence? after he's dead? Zionists never heard of and so don't understand the concept of a just cause.

Yes, sir. Just one problem, when Snowdon needed help for being open about the world's greatest terrorist country, he granted him asylum! That counts in my book. All other countries of note were too busy bowing to the terrorist state. When Obama wanted a fight in Syria, Russia calmed the water.

Betcha this is a western/mossad op. Putin is too brilliant a geostrategist to sully himself in such an obvious move.

MsCreant,
Satire, dear, satire.
Sarcasm is a directed remark at a person as a response.
If I responded that you command of definition of words is magnificent then that would be sarcasm.
But his comment was directed at no one in particular. That is satire.
Agree on both counts. Shooting down and covering up MH17 wasn't ugly enough for the United States of Soros.
What's the name of Russia's version of the 50-cent Army? C'mon, I'm sure you would know.
Uhh, doesn't a downvote kind of prove my point?
Once again this conspiracy that the western world would do a false flag here- to what end? Why would we want to shoot down a bunch of Dutch people? Isn't the answer much more obvious- Russian-speaking-whatchamcallits-fighting-the-Ukrainian-military ("Russian backed rebels" is the western term) with more firepower than brains shot down the wrong goddamn plane?
Putin has blood on his hands just like the rest. You do not get in a position of power in todays world without killing to the top.
Yeah but he ain't this stupid. Would you do it? And like this, in that place?
Maybe it was the only opportunity. Putin is coming out pretty quick basically stating its a contract killing. To me thats acting guilty but speculation on my part. usually when they are quiet they actually might not have done it and it could of been a black op. So they stay quiet because of an internal investigation to not tip of the culprit.
Nothing but Russophobe fools think President suspect.
Consider if keep these obvious chickenshits like he and Navaly around, cos everybody so hate them,
and obvious who enable them, it only serve to galvanize will of people.
Why you think Navaly is running around break court order? cos Putin sends every to gulag?
Has some to do with over 85% support.
otherwise, scratch them and someone actually more threat might appear.....
I hope they pin it on Puss Riot....
Pussy Riot? Really, Vodkalov? Pussy Riot? Ooooookkkkk....
The guy was loudly proclaiming he feared for his life because of Putin. So, the victim already knew he had a target on his head.
As for why would Putin do it this way? Well, why the hell not? It achieves the two obvious objectives-- it silences a critic and sends a strong, and very public, message to other critics to shut the fuck up. As so many people have already pointed out, Putin enjoys high popularity with the Russian people- how would his being responsible change that? The Russian people seem to like Putin the bad-ass. And Putin is a pariah in the western world. So westerners just have another reason to hate him, big deal. He's the Honey Badger- doesn't give a shit what we think. I don't see a downside as long as there is plausible deniability that he personally gave the order because, you know, it looks bad.
Ding-Ding-Ding-Ding-Ding...!!! We have a Winner...!! Straight-up on the Ruble there Tfy - that is ~precisely~ what went down. They're hell bent on smearing and/or removing him by any means at their disposal - and the dirtier the better...
It does seem to fit the classic moves. I am not certain that Putin personally taking control of the investigation is a good thing though.
1. It makes him appear like he's trying to cover up something
2. He is worried about infiltration.
Either way, unless conclusive proof as to what really happened can be released, this doesn't and won't look good for Putin because they can just accuse him of having rigged the whole investigation. He is either in on the "bigger picture", scared or just making a huge blunder.
Disclaimer: Unfortunately, games to the top and at the top are very dirty. I support no one who is in power.
Yep. If I had the highest approval rating in recent history and the entire resources of the FSB, GRU and the SVR, that's what I would do to get rid of my third rate political opponents: Order the boys to do a 80's gangsta style drive-by shooting reminiscent of South Central LA in the middle of Moscow just before a political opposition rally.
The BBC is selling this story with "PUTIN'S AGGRESSION" in bold letters. But seriously it is just pathetic - you would need a lobotomy to believe the msm crap putting the blame at Putin. It's infantile.
Remember, they did this with Hariri years ago. A triumphant wise leader gunned down by his Syrian enemies. The MSM wouldn't tolerate that it could have been anyone but the Syrians and years later... crickets. Turns out Hariri had a lot of people he owed a lot of money to but of course only the Syrians had motive.
Some BBC bimbo filed a report yesterday about racism in Russian football. She was nearly bawling her pretty eyes out over it.
Fancy going to ONE match and extrapolating from the behaviour of fans at that ONE match that THE WHOLE of Russian football is racist. In other words, file a report about an entire country based on behaviour at a single event.
Racism, you were saying?
The irony is just too sweet for words. And obviously too much for a brain-dead BBC bimbo with a one-year journalism diploma to understand.
Was it another suicide?

The Siberian crater saga is more widespread — and scarier — than anyone thoughtTarget practice.
Move along...
It's a nice story. If only Siberia was
1- Warming
2- Experiencing permafrost melting
Sadly for the meme neither is actually occurring.
sadly, you live in denial of science:
A mystery crater spotted in the frozen Yamal peninsula in Siberia earlier this month was probably caused by methane released as permafrost thawed, researchers in Russia say.
Air near the bottom of the crater contained unusually high concentrations of methane — up to 9.6% — in tests conducted at the site on 16 July, says Andrei Plekhanov, an archaeologist at the Scientific Centre of Arctic Studies in Salekhard, Russia. Plekhanov, who led an expedition to the crater, says that air normally contains just 0.000179% methane.
Since the hole was spotted in mid-July by a helicopter pilot, conjecture has abounded about how the 30-metre-wide crater was formed — a gas or missile explosion, a meteorite impact and alien involvement have all been suggested.
But Plekhanov and his team believe that it is linked to the abnormally hot Yamal summers of 2012 and 2013, which were warmer than usual by an average of about 5°C. As temperatures rose, the researchers suggest, permafrost thawed and collapsed, releasing methane that had been trapped in the icy ground.
Other researchers argue that long-term global warming might be to blame — and that a slow and steady thaw in the region could have been enough to free a burst of methane and create such a big crater. Over the past 20 years, permafrost at a depth of 20 metres has warmed by about 2°C, driven by rising air temperatures1, notes Hans-Wolfgang Hubberten, a geochemist at the Alfred Wegener Institute in Potsdam, Germany.
Hubberten speculates that a thick layer of ice on top of the soil at the Yamal crater site trapped methane released by thawing permafrost. “Gas pressure increased until it was high enough to push away the overlying layers in a powerful injection, forming the crater,” he says. Hubberten says that he has never before seen a crater similar to the Yamal crater in the Arctic.
Larry Hinzman, a permafrost hydrologist at the University of Alaska in Fairbanks and director of the International Arctic Research Center, says that such craters could become more common in permafrost areas as the region heats up.

the sun and the polar vortex chuckle in response
Re polar vortex. Human engineered weather.
The immovable high off the West Coast sends the jet stream north, warming Alaska. It comes down over the East as the "polar vortex". Rises into Eurasia, warming the Siberian Artic. Maybe the methane release that results is supposed to offset declining solar activity? Chemtrails over the West Coast get it going, generating the blocking high.
very more warm than normal

Looks like Boris was just another former committed communist trying to make a buck by selling off everything not nailed down to his banker friends in the West...
Later in 1991, as a reward for his support of Yeltsin during the coup, Nemtsov was appointed Governor of Nizhny Novgorod Region – he was the first to hold this newly created position. Yeltsin later admitted that Nemtsov was the only Nizhny Novgorod resident with whom he was personally acquainted.
Boris Nemtsov was determined to make Nizhny Novgorod a model of free-market capitalism – so determined that some academic figures criticized his leadership style as “authoritarian.” An ambitious construction plan was implemented, which among other projects involved the building of a regional airport. British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher landed at the airport soon after it was built. She praised Nemtsov’s sweeping reforms of the city, which was once closed to foreigners. Thatcher’s successor, John Major, and French Prime Minister Alain Juppé later visited the city, which was labeled a “laboratory of reform” by academics and the media.
His only regret was not becoming a multi-billionaire before he died...
Really?
Far out dude.
Pot's legal in DC now btw.
I've spent a lot of time sight seeing in Moscow and particularly around Red Square, GUM, etc. There are a lot of busy side streets in the area. If someone wants to get you there then you've got no chance. My doctor would shit if he knew how many McDonalds cheeseburgers I've eaten while walking around that area and enjoying talking to the average Russian. Even the cops are nice to me when they know I'm an American who speaks decent Russian.
The Metro is especially dangerous at night. Lost a friend who was trying to start a hotel venture in Russia. Teeche edem, dalshe budem. My advice is only speak to women if your Russian is decent.
... and the British poisoned Alexander Litvinenko; blaming the Russians. Nothing new today.
Any proof of that? Or did it just come from your ass?

Someone is shot to death and all people here have to say, are clown comments.
And you added what exactly? Are we supposed to cry that a subversive anti-Putin Jew got popped? I honestly don't give a fuck, sounds like he was more Israeli than Russian anyway.
I'm sure it was an accident.
I was thinking suicide.
Accidental suicide?
False flag analysis, and other iSpy explanations are of course nothing more than mental short cuts for folks who fancy themselves to be much, much more clever than they are.
Putin had this guy killed. Just like Putin put various people in jail, and conducted a war in Chechnya, and invaded Ukraine.
Over-complicated analysis always sounds smart, to a person who is not so smart.
GG
"Putin had this guy killed."
Well if "Glasgow Gary" says it, it must be fact.
Stop reading everyone...do as the Troll says and don't "over-complicate" his evidentiary disclosure...with, er...facts?
Nope, facts just "over-commplicate" his propaganda, so stop it.
Just another asshat that is short critical gray matter. Not much you can do except tolerate their intrusion - like noseeums.
But of course there is no FSB-sponsored propaganda here. Nope, none at all.
GlasgowGary - typical zino-front name. Names like LocalGuy, TexasTrucker, TypicalDude. How come they never sign in with some name like Zino-Idologue?
@ Glasgay Gary
Aye Neap Heed, your obviously a ' sash my father wore ' turncoat ORANGE ORDER MASONIC CUNT. Fuck OFF.
Damn right he did.
That's what a country run by people who aren't complete faggots does with people who aid and abet the nation's enemies. Kill the sons of bitches. And make sure the whole fucking world sees it done.
The shootings of traitors and CIA agents will continue till the lesson sinks in. NOBODY. FUCKS. WITH RUSSIA.
lol..no bod fucks with Russia..fuck you faggot
Your besotted public officials hve to pay sub intellects like you to type scripts of propaganda...you fucking fairy...you would last about a nano second on the battle field...the US will be aiming the first nuke at your unusually expanded ass hole
This guy was openly calling for the overthrow of the govt.Considering how popular Putin is don't you think any number of Putin supporters who considered this guy a traitor could have done this without Putin's authority?
many people, all walks of life hated the chickenshit
could well be other than political at all
first chance it was done to blame President
second he screwed somebody over more person to person business
Everyone should revist the Gabby Giffords episode and how people reacted then.
People who are working for US State department or various Western NGOs meddling in internal affairs and political processes of Russia? Or people like that Jew who was serving Rothschilds and stole billions... what his name was, Khodorovsky or something like that? That kind of peple, scum? You think the world is stupid, scum?
So you kept your's simple and stupid?
You know nothing about these subjects.

He was probably a Rothschild/Rockefeller/Soros Butt-Boy. Anybody who fucks with the Oligarchs is a friend of mine!
Putin Rocks!
"Anybody who fucks with the Oligarchs is a friend of mine!"
Cheers! Finally a comment worth reading!
Not a Putin fanboy, but this smells like a CIA setup. Who here thinks CIA did it to frame Putin? Putin could have done it much more quietly, unless he feels it is necessary to risk a big scandal just to send a message with this killing to deter others. I think Putin and the Party rule with enough of an iron fist to obviate the need for the latter possibility.
To believe that Putin did this is to believe that Putin is fighting to stay in power and could be toppled by one of his lieutenants. I'm not an expert on Russia but I don't think that's the case.
What would you expect after you've fanned the flames of a coup in Moscow? A red carpet? Well, he got one.
Actually in recent times he had little value and seems his masters regarded him as 'expendable'. His death will be exploited full size making ir more important than the man himself.
It must be Putin, can't really guess about anyone else :D
