Guess that makes him an expert on inhuman behavior. /s
Vladimir Putin was born October 7th 1952.
You can’t take seriously any propagandist who calls Aleksandr Dugin a “top Kremlin fascist ideologue and geopolitical strategist.” That’s like calling Rev. Jeremiah Wright a “top Bush neo-conservative ideologue and geopolitical strategist.”

A little before his time, don'cha think?
More sensibly .... did the SOROS-Obama-Jarrett cabal plan and execute the Nazi attack on Russian supporters, burning them alive in an attempt to instill fear and silence opposition .... in good ‘ole Nazi time tested tradition???
THAT'S HOW CLEVER PUTIN IS!
He's been doing nefarious things since well before he was born!
A reasonable author can believe in a conspiracy, especially given cloudy environs like the fall of the Soviet Union. But to state the conspiracy as if it had been demonstrated and accepted as fact is to rightfully earn oneself the scorn and derision commonly given conspiracy mongers, especially when the attacks were publicly announced by the perpetrators of the attacks before they began.
Reichstag Fire ping
Dayum!!! I’m ordering a Rosetta Stone in Russian while copies are still available.
850 people were held hostage by 40-50 Chechen terrorists. A chemical gas was used successfully to placate the terrorists. The problem was that titrating a sleep-inducing drug is impossible in such conditions, and 130 hostages were also killed, mostly by overdoses of the drug. Doctors on the scene criticized the operation because they were not told what drug had been used, and so could not effectively counter its effects among the innocent. I would certainly call it a debacle. I would not call it evidence that Putin murders his own people for political points.
Whether or not he did, Pro-Russians aren’t messing around in Odessa anymore are they?
I am sure some Russian cleaning woman will be brought forth to say “What, at this point, does it matter?”
The author presents no evidence. The fact that Russian special forces did not aid in the battle of Odessa is presented not as a demonstration that Russia isn’t using special forces in Odessa, but as proof that Russia wanted its allies to lose to set up the scene for the Odessa massacre. When the brutality of Kiev backfires, this is not evidence that Kiev acted with passion blinded by hatred, but as proof that Russia wanted it to happen, and so therefore, by extension, proof that Russia did it.
I know National Review has become a haunt of establishment GOP types like Frum but I’m rather stunned to read its become the haunt of fanatical conspiracists so desperate to cover for a failed MSM narrative that they invent such psychotic drivel.
>> So it was easily predictable, when a similar scene was enacted in Odessa on May 2, with 42 pro-Russian activists burned to death or killed by smoke inhalation while trapped in the city’s Trade Union building, that ferocious rage and demands for revenge should break out in every part of Russia and every ethnic-Russian community in Ukraine. Indeed, in eliminating dissent and unifying Putin’s subjects into a mad herd behind his plans for war and fascism, the massacre could hardly have better served his aims and objectives if the former spymaster had planned it himself. <<
Dugin is indeed a “Kremlin fascist ideologue” with links to the Kremlin and a top position in a university. He also appears on state run Russian media. If he was not supported or useful for the regime, he would not maintain his position nor ever be heard of.
This guy doesn’t sound biased.

Not!
We don’t know if the FSB was behind the Odessa fire, but we do know the FSB has killed lots of people under orders of Putin, and that is not a conspiracy theory.
I agree that this column veers into conspiracy theory, but since when have FReepers been so dismissive of false-flag theories?
He’s a conservative judging from the books he’s published, and most normal conservatives are anti-communist and patriotic, making them naturally suspicious of the Kremlin which is still supporting communist movements and governments across the world.
