Good article, awesome FReeper homepage!
The Telegraph - a Rupert Murdoch thang.
The Australian Telegraph is. The UK’s Telegraph, where this editorial ran, certainly isn’t.
Right - my bad.
Dennis Kucinich is a fairy princess, in spite of the trophy wife he flaunts.
was nuts, shurely? She died in 2005, I believe...
Propertius has found a detailed article on Larisa Arap.
Ignore the ping, I see you are on this thread.
Ping to articles that detail the mounting evidence of Putin’s return to the evil ways of the past. The second article details the character assasination and totally inhumane treatment of Larisa Arap, a victim of “punitive psychiatry” for daring to speak out against the Kremlin.
As for Putin: once KGB, always KGB. Daily there is mounting evidence against Putin’s claims of Russia being a free, and democratic nation. With the propoganda, rhetoric, indoctrination of youth, intimidation by character assasination, torturing, poisoning and killing political and business rivals, it would seem that indeed Russia has returned to being the USSR of old! What a sad turn of events for Russia’s people who for a short time had a chance for freedom...
Putin can say whatever he wants, but those with eyes and ears plainly see that he has brought Russia back to the days of dictatorships... I wonder if he really will step down next year, or come up with a reason to stay in power?
Thanks to NW_Arizona_Granny for the ping, and a big thank you to properitus for finding and posting these articles.
My father-in-law has the most interesting shade of blue eyes I’ve ever seen... Very light blue and silvery — but kind and gentle — not at all like Putin’s. (And my father-in-law is 100% polish born in Wisconsin — and now lives outside Chicago.(o;)
I’m still wondering how in the world Bush could’ve looked in his eyes and seen warmth, honesty and goodness... He must not have looked very hard, or else Putin has hypnotic powers! LOL I don’t doubt that Putin’s years in the KGB helped him to develop good manipulative skills...
There are also several links to the Larisa Arap attack at this link, including a link to translations:

Thank you! This is such a sad story, and you know for every one we hear about and is reported there are undoutedly more that are being treated this way. Prayers for all in Russia and surrounding countries who stand up against the return to the oppression of Communism...
