http://www.nytimes.com/2016/10/08/us/politics/us-formally-accuses-russia-of-stealing-dnc-emails.html?smid=fb-nytimes&smtyp=cur&_r=0 Removing any shred of a doubt as to why Trump is running and what will happen. If Trump becomes President, Putin will run America.

Trump asks a foreign Country to carry out espionage against our country for his own gain, and they did. Comparatively, this is FAR worse than the Watergate scandal. The Feds have begun an investigation into the recent hacking, but so far have not indicated whether Trump would be part of that...

I think the interesting thing about the latest release of DNC emails by Wikileaks isn't really what's in the emails themselves, but who they come from. The hack, remember, came from Russia. And hacking is still a crime last time I checked. Who benefits ultimately? Trump. And why would Russia...

Given the recent interview in which Donald Trump said that he might not honor the NATO treaties and defend member nations from outside attack, I would like to ask if there's any real US domestic support for such a position. I'm especially interested in what our resident conservatives feel about...

This is one of the most plausible conspiracy theories I have yet read about. I saw this interview of Aleksander Litvinenko that was done almost a decade before his death in which he talked about the Russian Apartment Bombings of 1999. I have to say, given what we know about Russia and its...

Perhaps he's gone to lead his troops Ukraine? http://www.ndtv.com/world-news/putin-has-vanished-but-rumors-are-poppin-up-everywhere-746508

Inspired by the ISIS thread, I thought this article summarized Putin's ambitions and methods pretty well, putting the Ukraine in the context of larger efforts to undo the post cold war settlement...

The previous thread (found HERE) was getting long and unwieldy, so I have opened this continuation thread. As always, the split point is arbitrary and you are free to quote from the previous thread into this one. Not just these days, I've had to put up with it all my life and it's damned...

This is an interesting speculation. Certainly the man (the Tsar) has a psychological deficiency of some sort, but what? http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2015/02/04/putin-aspergers-syndrome-study-pentagon/22855927/

Reuters) - Former Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev warned that tensions between Russia and European powers over the Ukraine crisis could result in a major conflict or even nuclear war, in an interview to appear in a German news magazine on Saturday."A war of this kind would unavoidably lead to a...

Russia is coming apart at the seams. Putin's desperate. Estonia's border region has a lot of ethnic Russians. What if there's an "incident"? Would NATO invoke it's article V defense clause? Would Obama risk going to war with Russia over Estonia? If you were Obama, would you risk it? I don't...

...being in league with liberal feminists I suppose Putin is factually correct here: Russian Central Bank is not in fact run by liberal feminists in thrall to the IMF. But it is rather amusing to see him being attacked by people even more xenophobic than he is. Russian far-right cranks seem to...

Justin Raimondo over at antiwar.com takes a look at the cause of the whiny response of US pre$$titutes to V.V. Putin's Valdai speech.

I see that Chuckie, the Prince of Wails has likened Putin to Hitler... You can just see Phil the Greek, can't you, "That's my boy!" I'm sure that Putin must be really, really frightened now, and will return the Crimea very soon and apologise to everybody. Isn't it time for the UK to become a...

I just read about this conspiracy theory and it struck me it would easily get some takers among the "skeptics" here. * Robert Zubrin, National Review, May 13: Did Putin Plan the Odessa Massacre? He has certainly exploited it Re: the May 2 incident leading to a fire and dozens of deaths at the...

Vladimir Putin signed a new law—referred to as the "blogger's law"—that will require online writers with more than 3,000 daily readers to register with the Roskomnadzor, Russia's media oversight agency. I am looking forward to how local Putin-lovers will spin this. Probably "necessary in view...

Isn't this news over there in the anglo sphere? We here are bombarded with stories of Chodorkowski's release. Part of amnesty which also led to the release of the two thirds of "Pussy Riot" remaining in custody. And those Green Peace fools who attacked a serious oil rig.

I don't know too much about the incident so I won't go into much detail about it. It would seem as though wealthy Russian citizens are "peacefully" protesting against the currently governmental system and calling for more transparency. Russia has suffered from voter issues for years, but in the...
