Many more journalists were murdered under Yeltsin than Putin. Beezovsky almost assuredly had Forbes Magazine Editor, Paul Klebnikov murdered. see American Journalist Shot Dead in Moscow

Sure.

Certainly! Berezovsky said at the first of the year he was going to cause a coup in Russia by 2008. That is his word. Now how in the world can that be Red propaganda?

Impossible, isn't it? Are you that thick or just playing on on internet.

Interesting. I had a suspicion that it may be Boris.

Boris is really fantacizing if he thinks that he is going to ride a wave of discontent back into power in Russia.

far as I know, Putin is popular and the average Russian on the street has it better now than when Jeltsin's oligarchs were running the Kremlin and plundering the state.

I have an earned academic doctorate in theology. Please explain how it could by any stretch of the imagination be Red propaganda?

By the leap of faith?

That is not an answer. You're simply burning bandwidth to discredit the article.

I'm burning nothing (other than midnight oil, to be exact). This article is well beyond discrediting - practically a comedy. Next time, Berezonsky words will be attributed to some Indian news agency, I suppose...

Here is Berezovsky's motive for murdering Litvinenko and Polikovskaya.

Um, right. I like your tactic -- find the nearest Jew (Berezovsky) and blame him for everything, despite the fact that these two were his allies.

Berezovsky is a murdering thug. The fact that he is a Jew has nothing to do with it. My best friend for over 10 years was a Jew.

If Berezovsky were looking to lead a coup against Putin, then how does this help him do it? Your reasoning is somewhat flawed.

I Googled the Internet for Berezovsky, 2008, and Coup and came back with over 16,200 hits. The article is valid.

And how many of them are actual interview transcript - AFP's, for example (since article refers France Presse)?

I agree with the man in the article, any action against Putin is now justified.

I'll say this-if any airline passengers start developing symptoms of radiation poisoning, Putin needs to be hauled to The Hague and tried for crimes against humanity.

Russian billionaire Boris Berezovsky has never made any secret of his loathing for President Vladimir Putin, but in an interview in his London exile the controversial tycoon went one step further with a vow to mount a coup.

Berezovsky will be next.

That's not an argument. It is the last refuge of somebody who doesn't have one.

I don't follow Russian politics, but was following this thread with interest.

Why not actually type out your theory to enlighten those of us who are ignorant, rather than simply engaging in juvenile ad hominem attacks on those you don't agree with?

So far, you are losing the debate in the opinion of this neutral observer.
