I have no intention of getting into a flame war, so here are a couple of measured comments.
Michael Givel:
Is that so? -- Yes, he does. You would know this if you had read them. Look, you just don't know anything about the country. Go and spend the time to educate yourself. You look silly otherwise. I can give you lots of sources of you want.

Laugh out loud. You really do have a just a wee bit of difficulty separating pro-Putin propaganda from actual facts, don't you?
According to Mr. Doss, (who has no intention of getting into a flame war because he is all so knowledgeable and with his sleazy put downs as the rest of us are mere imbeciles) all is well in supposed multicultural Russia--no neo-fascist groups, no murdered journalists (who we should care about) no racism, no anti-immigrant movements, and economic inequality that is "no different" than anywhere else in the capitalist world.
And anybody who says differently is either ignorant or just repeating scurrilous propaganda from the insiders conducting the international world press conspiracy.
Silly? You should really take a look in the mirror some time.
