I think you’re kidding yourself on the “alleged” bit.
But Trump straight out said “Yes, I’d condemn that” re: the killing of journalists. So once again, the press is reporting selectively to try to make news.
I think youâre kidding yourself on the âallegedâ bit. - and there is evidence Putin killed those journalists where? That’s like people stating that football star who joined the military was killed by Bush because he was anti-war. That is BS also and had the same lines of non-evidence.
During going from a communism economy to a democracy there were many rival factions at odds with each other. Something like that would be hard to control, even by Putin during the early stages.
Also, I think their rules of engagement were sterner in scope than ours. Ask yourself how many whistle blowers and traitors we got rid of, the latest being Snowden?
