Boris Nemtsov has been shot dead in Moscow. He was one of the most charismatic leaders of the “liberal” or “democratic” “non-system” opposition in Russia (please understand that in the Russian context “liberal” and “democratic” means pro-US or even CIA-run, while “non-system” means too small to even get a single deputy in the Duma). He was shot just a few days before the announced demonstration of the very same “liberal” or “democratic” “non-system” opposition scheduled for March 1st.
Nemtsov and Yushchenko
As I have already explained many times on this blog, the “liberal” or “democratic” “non-system” opposition in Russia has a popular support somewhere in the range of 5% (max). In other words, it is politically *dead* (for a detailed explanation, please read “From Napoleon to Adolf Hitler to Conchita Wurst“). In the hopes of getting a higher number of people to the streets the “liberal” or “democratic” “non-system”opposition allied itself with the ultra-nationalists (usually useful idiots for the CIA) and the homosexual activists (also useful idiots for the CIA). Apparently, this was not enough.
And now, in *perfect* timing, Nemtsov is murdered.
We all know the reaction of the AngloZionists and their propaganda machine. It will be exactly the same as for MH-17: Putin the Murderer!!! Democracy Shot!! Freedom Killed!! etc. etc. etc. etc.
There is no doubt in my mind at all that either this is a fantastically unlikely but always possible case of really bad luck for Putin and Nemtsov was shot by some nutcase or mugged, or this was a absolutely prototypical western false flag: you take a spent politician who has no credibility left with anyone with an IQ over 70, and you turn him into an instant “martyr for freedom, democracy, human right and civilization”.
By the way if, as I believe, this is a false flag, I expect it to be a stunning success in the West and a total flop in Russia: by now, Russians already can smell that kind of setup a mile away and after MH-17 everybody was expecting a false flag. So, if anything, it will only increase the hostility of Russians towards the West and rally them around Putin. In the Empire, however, this will be huge, better than Politkovskaya or Litvinenko combined. A “Nemtsov” prize will be created, a Nemtov statue will be place somewhere (in Warsaw?), the US Congress will pass a “Nemtsov law” and the usual combo package of “democratic hagiography” will be whipped-up.
What worries me most is that the Russian security services did not see this one coming and let it happen. This is a major failure for the FSB which will now have a lot at stake to find out who did it. I expect them to find a fall-guy, a patsy, who will have no provable contacts with any western services and who, ideally, might even have some contacts with the Russian services (like Andrei Lugovoi).
As for the “liberal” or “democratic” “non-system” – it will probably re-brand the upcoming protests as a “tribute to Nemtsov” thereby getting more people into the streets.

http://nsnbc.me/2015/02/28/nato-finds-arab-backdoor-to-arm-kiev/
Finian Cunningham (SCF) : The announcement this week that the Kiev regime struck a major deal with the United Arab Emirates for military weapons raises strong suspicions that the US-led NATO alliance has found a new backdoor into Ukraine. We say «new» because it is believed that the US and its NATO allies, Poland and Lithuania, are already covertly supplying weapons to the Kiev regime.
This reminds me of Litvinenko, another naive idiot who thought he was running to refuge when, in fact, he was running right into the arms of his murderer (berezovsky, in my opinion).When are these useful idiots going to understand that in the eyes of an intelligence agency, if you’re willing to betray your country then, in the eyes foreign intelligence, you’re expendable human waste. This egotistical blowhard, Nemtzov, must be thinking that as he receives the proverbial red hot pitchfork up his ass in his new home (if his death wasn’t a random crime).
meanwhile, in the fourth reich:

I think they got this through now. No such luck. The Republicans/Neocons covertly want mass Mexican immigration for cheap labor and (they hope) votes. The stopgap bill also funded Pres. Obama’s amnesty program. When the world war starts there will be plenty of Mexicans to keep the U.S. economy running!
Ain’t no economy left and illegals that vote…illegally go for the dems not the repubs!
so boris had more than 100 close family and friends he count on for votes?
So, if anything, it will only increase the hostility of Russians towards the West and rally them around Putin. And if the guardian poll in Russia about how many had a good opinion of Obama.. Which was less than 5% positive.
So how much lower can it get??????? I mean there has to be 5% of Russians getting paid by the west. Then it would be hypocritical of I take your money but I don’t like you.
Yeah it’s blaring across the CMSM. Another one bites the dust in the Banksters War on Everything. That’s where I would put my money on.
Two out of 5 headlines so far say “Putin critic”
@ Kat Kan,
Don’t forget that those who think of Mr. Putin as a true statesman have become part of a ‘cult’ according to ‘those in the know’…
Also, how to stop a killer, when no crime has been committed yet? Russia; damned if you do, damned if you don’t.
Personally, I would have sit back and watch the unfolding of this misadventure [the same way it’s happening]. Much of the western world is waking up and slowly begins to realize to what warmongering tune they’re actually marching. The internet and fast social networking prevents a lot of BS from maturing.
Unfortunately, not everyone is tuned in to the other side of la-la-land’s MSM stations.
About social media being somehow able to curtail false information is rather startling.
Seems to me social media is the festering cesspool lies and disinformation actually start from.
Thank you for your astute comment. Completely agree.
@ Patrick Walker,
Q: About social media being somehow able to curtail false information is rather startling.
R: That’s why I said, ‘The internet and fast social networking.’ as in I and you exchanging info.

“Nisman in Argentina, now Nemtsov…. apparently, empire agents with no upside left make fantastic False Flag fodder.”
Incidentally (?), both men were Jewish.

Incidentally (?), both men were Jewish.
Who had more value to Jewish zionist interests as “martyrs” than they did remaining alive.
Jews, like any other group, prefer not to kill one of their own, but, as Mr. (Jew) Spock said: “The needs of the [elite] outweigh the needs of the [agent]”.
What’s interesting to me is that nobody in the “West” is observing the marked difference in coverage of the death of another “opposition” politician, Thomas Schweich, this one in Missouri (the US), who was shot (allegedly by himself) a few days ago. Interestingly, he was also partly Jewish and a “corruption crusader”. However the coverage is extremely different.
This is a very interesting thought. It may in fact redound against the empire as that maybe some of these spent politicians will begin to understand the position they are in and try to either insulate or insure themselves against such an eventuality. It is definitely an act of desperation on the part of the empire. In economics it is known as “retiring capital” or forced liquidation and it is immensely destructive to the equilibrium of the system.
According to RT, it was an assassination:
http://rt.com/news/236363-nemtsov-killed-politician-moscow/
“a white vehicle approached Nemtsov, fired the shots, and rushed away.”
So about the unlikely hypothesis that he was “shot by some nutcase or mugged”, he clearly wasn’t mugged. The shooter in the white vehicle could have been a nutcase nevertheless ;)
According to Der Spiegel, Putin wants to “personally supervise the investigations”:
http://www.spiegel.de/politik/ausland/russland-oppositionspolitiker-nemzow-in-moskau-erschossen-a-1021049.html
Apparently that’s from a statement of Dmitry Peskov.
And of course this is spun as Putin trying to cover up his own crime (though somehow it is not explained why he could not rely on his henchmen of his servile FSB to cover it up for him).
He was walking with a Ukrainian woman according to RT’s report. Given the gravity of Roberts’s two Moscow presentations, something had to happen. Plus, the primary propaganda line was unraveling, so something had to rekindle it. RT’s report’s comments are flooded with Putin-bashers.
This Ukranian model…to let her live the shooter must have been sure she wouldn’t talk.
FSB is involved in the assassination of Lech Kaczinski and other 95 people at Smolensk:
http://smolenskcrash.eu/news-116-quothow-the-president-of-poland-diedquot-videoengsub.html#.VPIdty4trIU
Navalniy – current “popular opposition leader” and main reason for rallies lately (people are protesting against lawsuits against him, which are completely apolitical, just the usual financial crimes) was imprisoned several days ago for breaking the conditions for house arrest.
As far as speculation goes, Navalniy was planned to become a “sacrifice” in the sake of Russian Maidan, but as he’s under close watch now, another random opposition activist was used.
Was it a pure luck, or did Navalniy know, that he could be targeted by his “friends in the West”?..
Dear The Saker,
Agree with you. My first thought was false flag. I also wonder how the FSB could miss this one. The US obviously needed bodies on the streets for the 1st March. Putin has already said it could be a provocation and needs investigation immediately.
http://rt.com/news/236363-nemtsov-killed-politician-moscow/
He was with a Ukrainian woman and a car drove by and he was shot….
As you say the Western media will leap on this whole heartedly and try and make something out of the death of this poor man.
On another note, it looks like UK and US at the UNSC were trying to change the terms of the Minsk agreement and the role of the OSCE. Both parties obviously were not present or party to it…….

Dear The Saker,
Right on cue – as you stated “As for the “liberal” or “democratic” “non-system” – it will probably re-brand the upcoming protests as a “tribute to Nemtsov” thereby getting more people into the streets.”
Just on RT – the opposition has decided to rebrand the 1st March to a vigil for Nemtsov.

He was not a poor man, he was friends with Yuschenko, Tymoschenko, Berezovskiy, and wait for it… John McCain.
Agreed, he was a despicable traitor or a foreign agent of subversion. Opposing Putin / corruption is perfectly legitimate, but not when you cozy up to and serve the most vicious enemies of your nation and of your people; alas, he was Jewish, so in light of his behavior, perhaps he did not consider Russia his nation or Russians his people, which makes him a foreign agent of subversion.
That said, he shouldn’t have been shot, and I hope whoever did it (my bet is on the Axis of Evil: Washington – London – Tel Aviv) is caught and appropriately punished.
He was walking with a 23-year old Ukrainian model freshly arrived from Kiev. I wonder if she suggested the stroll and the route, eh?
It is interesting that the woman was not killed also.
@ BOT TAK,
Q: It is interesting that the woman was not killed also.
R: Just like that cop in Paris..
Way back the guy next to me got a bullet through the head and the bleeding was instant and enormous.
Maybe a honey trap?
Too bad the FSB can’t interrogate Poroshenko because I’d bet my journalistic “eye teeth” that smirking fatty knows something. The model might have been some type of courier, though. Was she still with him when he was shot? If so, that’s damn good shooting. Not some random nut job. And then, why was the shooter so careful if that was the case? Normally you’d think the shooter would want to take out the witness and make it look like a random crime.
This is the Ukrainian model he was walking with
http://lifenews.ru/news/150502
Nice find!! This looks like her:
https://twitter.com/olegnovikovkh/status/571436950227439617
It would be interesting to know her reaction in order to get some idea of how much she knew.
Re: Ukranian Model
Is that polite term for prostitute these days? –> “Model”. How about murder-bait? That’s what’s being implied about this young “woman”.
Interesting comments on the story about the model.
One suggests her brother or former boyfriend didn’t like her going with a Katsap (Russian). Another says “girl brought to death” set him up?? general feeling is, set up to increase attendance at March 1 rally. None see advantage to Putin in it.
BTW, the model had just recently aborted Nemtsov’s baby, according to this:
Ольшанский: Убийцы Немцова хотели замазать кровью Кремль (Olshansky: Assassins Nemtsov wanted to cover up the blood of the Kremlin)
At the moment the investigation is considering several versions of the murder of politician . One of them – revenge for his mistress, Anne Duritskaya Ukrainian model, which has recently had an abortion by Nemtsov.
The “model” made me think of the Woman in Red who helped the FBI kill Dillinger. All she did was dress in red so she (and thus he who walked with her) could be easily spotted form a distance in a crowd
She’s supposedly an actress with Kiev casting. She may come out with an astounding accusation for the camera – she saw Putin pulling the trigger! well not that blatant but something implicating FSB – in 3 … 2 … 1 …. AAACCTION!
«Руками западных спецслужб перед 1 марта» (“Hands of Western intelligence agencies before March 1”)
“Sacred victim of the West”
Incident of this magnitude could not become the most discussed topic of the night from Saturday to Sunday.
According to political scientist Alexander Topalov, killing policy is not by accident. “If this is true – it is unique heaven hundred in miniature hands of Western intelligence agencies before March 1st. Keep in mind. Sacred victim Nemtsov perfect in its own way. Russian citizens do not get fooled by provocation. At such times, every little thing can be fatal, ” wrote on his Facebook analyst.
According to journalist Dmitry Olshansky, “miserable Boris Nemtsov was sacrificed” in order to “revitalize the opposition.”
“It is amazing, of course. 2015 – and so clean, a wholly-owned history of the early 2000s, the era of the early years of bloody struggle with Putin.
My favorite idea of the late Boris Berezovsky – the rubble Vasya to think at Kohl – which sounded so clearly in the history of the candidate Rybkin on the 2004 presidential election, when Rybkin barely left alive from the cartridge – suddenly revived. Miserable Nemtsov was sacrificed number march “Spring” – right under the date “all carefully,” wrote on his page in the social network with Facebook.
“His body – like an electric shock to revitalize the opposition. “To come out”, “to anger.” And because liberals – to such an extent unsophisticated sheep that they believe that Putin directly in front of them Maryinskiy Boating decided to kill his dangerous opponent Nemtsov, he’s a tyrant and tyrant necessarily need to kill someone. As in the comics. But, I repeat, it is striking that the company has risen ten-political technology method fifteen years ago. A feeling that some people many years in jail, and then went out – and began to address the issues in a familiar way, “said publicist.
According to the director of the International Institute of Political Expertise Evgeny Minchenko, Nemtsov murder a provocation. “There is no danger for the government Nemtsov had no idea. I have two versions of what happened: First, consumer hostility – Nemtsov was a stormy personal life. Secondly, it is clear that this is a provocation to the rally on March 1, and the place is chosen symbolic – not far from the Kremlin. Regularly there is something going on. I think that provocation – the most probable version, “- said the newspaper analyst VIEW.
This reminds me of Litvinenko, another naive idiot who thought he was running to refuge when, in fact, he was running right into the arms of his murderer (berezovsky, in my opinion). When are these useful idiots going to understand that in the eyes of an intelligence agency, if you’re willing to betray your country then, in the eyes foreign intelligence, you’re expendable human waste. This egotistical blowhard, Nemtzov, must be thinking that as he receives the proverbial red hot pitchfork up his ass in his new home (if his death wasn’t a random crime).
Never get in bed with organized criminals (whether said mafia is a government or a petty crime syndicate), it’ll always end badly for the underling when theyre no longer useful. Exactly like a KGB defector said when he mentioned how the KGB planned to eliminate local ideologues they were using to support mujibur Rahman as Bangladesh’s 1st leader; once Rahman was installed the KGB plan was to murder key local communists whose help they had taken to install Rahman.
When are the low level and mid level fools used by foreign intelligence ever going to figure that out?
Copy-cat murder.
In Argentina the prosecutor Nisman was murdered. He was a pusher of empty charges and (Google: Wikileaks cables Nisman) was controlled by a foreign power via the US Embassy. His murder elevated him and his charges.
Now something very similar has happened in Russia.
Alas this will work exactly as the Empire needs it to: it will make it very difficult for Merkel, Holande or any other Euro clown to deal with Putin and will weaken opposition to arming the Ukies. Most of the west will believe it and it does not matter if the rest of the world does not. The US has to keep Europe under its control at any and all costs.
Anyway, it seems agents of the west are very disposable. Poroshenko take note.
Lysander,
I don’t think this will have any impact on continental European politicians, as for the Brit establishment, they don’t count for anything anymore: they’re treated with disdain and irrelevance on both sides of the Atlantic (there’s only so much butt-licking a poodle can do before even the most beastial of master’s gets bored and bemused).
With respect to the MSM trying to create a mountain out of a molehill, they won’t get any traction either: the audience in the Anglosaxon world has been too dumbed down and apathetic for this kind of thing to matter (too bad for the imbecile social engineers here who dialed up the stupidity level a little too high).
I think one should also not underestimate the stupidity of the Ukrainian Junta mafia, this is the kind of inept cluster-f*ck of desperation that they specialize in when they don’t get what they want. I’m going to be mildly amused at just how small the crowds will be on March 1st.
I agree. How to deal with this ‘assassin’ now??? Really two birds with a stone.
White House demands a thorough investigation!
Why not? It was one of their agents shot by two of their gunmen. They have a stake in the crime.
Agree
Well said.
Where is Strelkov?
He’d be at the top of the list of “usual suspects”.

What worries me most is that the Russian security services did not see this one coming and let it happen. This is a major failure for the FSB which will now have a lot at stake to find out who did it.
In my opinion, they probably didn’t see it coming because it was a Jewish mafia/Mossad hit. It is much more difficult to follow all the Jewish mafia shenanigans than it is western intelligence ops. The Jewish mafia are still the most ubiquitous operators in Russia and far more integrated in the Russian “system”, despite efforts to root the scum out since Putin’s people replaced the Israeli-American Yeltsin quislings. Given the extent of zionist penetration into Russia during Yeltsin times, they are still the main conduit for western fascist ops in Russia, and will be, unless the Russians do a major purge.
I expect them to find a fall-guy, a patsy, who will have no provable contacts with any western services and who, ideally, might even have some contacts with the Russian services (like Andrei Lugovoi).
I don’t.
There are folks in Langley tonight who got a promotion.
Tel Aviv.
One of the reasons I do not think the Russian government will let this provocation slide is the reaction from Putin to the news:
“Putin emphasized that this brutal murder has all the signs of being ordered and is of an exclusively provocative character,” Peskov said.
I believe Putin threw down the gauntlet this time.
@ BOT TAK,
Q: I believe Putin threw down the gauntlet this time.
R: Putin’s having a ball and throwing nothing but judo opponents.
Remember last year, when the Guardian [I think] ran a poll of ur fav world leaders and Putin won hands down with a whopping 82% of the votes?
Putin is a mirror and he makes [almost] all western leaders look like the filthy swines that they are.
“With all due respect to the memory of Boris Nemtsov, in political terms he did not pose any threat to the current Russian leadership or Vladimir Putin. If we compare popularity levels, Putin’s and the government’s ratings and so on, in general Boris Nemtsov was just a little bit more than an average citizen,” Peskov said on Saturday.
Saker, aren’t you being a bit hard on the FSB? From what I’ve read so far, Nemtsov was killed in what was essentially a drive-by. Is it realistic to expect intelligence services to anticipate something like that, when all it requires is a car, a few people and a couple of guns?
On what could they have picked up?
Ok but very strange that he was walking with this bitch at 2 am…he was just coming from a radio show to promote his ‘march’…not very far if I’m not wrong?Of course this guy did not want to die,but it shows also that he was confident about his security.Which was a stupidity as opposition leader just finishing an anti Putin show on the air of this radio,normal people in that situation would be prudent and drive or take a taxi,even in Western and ‘safe’ cities.
About the FSB,same remark they should have followed him at least till sunday not to protect him but just in case…
Or…you see what I mean.They knew(fsb)but let it happened,a bit like 9/11.
Undoubtedly it was her genius idea to take a “romantic stroll” over the bridge. Luring him to the execution point. Honey trap, Ukraine style. They think they can start another coup since killing their own worked so well in Kiev.
Also I agree with the comment by вот так that it may have been the Russian-Jewish mafia. Everyone knows that the Jewish establishment has it out most for Putin for having taken back what they worked so “hard” to steal. Indeed all the Western MSM accusing Putin of the crime are owned and operated by the Jewish establishment.
The Rothschilds are the holders of a $50 billion judgment against Rosneft on account of Yukos. How wonderful to get someone in power who would pay that “debt”? Undoubtedly their clan had a hand in the Maidan shootings (IDF working hand-in-hand with Andrew Parubiy and Svoboda/Right Sector).
Nemtsov was walking with a female acquaintance, a Ukrainian citizen, when a vehicle drove up and unidentified assailants shot him dead. The woman wasn’t hurt.

I guess a whore from Kiev (24)he is 55.
She probably sent a text msg to these guys,to give them the ‘green light’ to come and shoot.This ‘lady’ is alive,very strange no?
I also believe that the other one Navalny was more prudent,and did everything not to be present on their March/rally.Very clever…
It may also be a clear message to all fith column agents,stay away from US provocations backed otherwise…
I saw that Putin announced a 10 pct decrease in salary for his staff this friday the timing is a bit stupid,could have wait till next week.(nothing to do with the false flag just to notice)
It could also be a CIA/MOSSAD/MI6 one of the three of two of them,to have a casus belli and hope that Putin will react as a crazy by for example,invading Ukraine or whatever stupidity.
It is too ‘big’ to be true as we say in french.I’m not even sure that people in the West will buy it,nobody knows this politician,and nobody cares about RF opposition being liberal or not.
Only the usual suspects(Kerry,Oblabla,Mc Cain Nuland and co will react in their usual way).
But the FSB should better be prepared for sunday for ANY possible real false flag…
Or maybe the West wants that Putin cancels the rally just to say after,Putin is a dictator etc ..
I don’t know.
Not surprised as it was ‘too calm” to be true lately.Porochoco and the US clique needs to re start the war at any price.YATS says today that the war will last for three years.How does he know?
Well, well, Wikepedia has been adjusted accordingly,
“This page was last modified on 28 February 2015, at 00:13.
” to read …”Close to midnight on 27 February 2015 in Moscow, Nemtsov was shot four times in the back as he was walking near the Kremlin with a female companion. He was crossing the Bolshoy Moskvoretsky Bridge when “several people” got out of a white car and shot him in the back, according to the Russian media.[3][31] The BBC reported: “In his last tweet, Mr Nemtsov sent out an appeal for Russia’s divided opposition to unite at an anti-war march he was planning for Sunday” quoting him as saying “If you support stopping Russia’s war with Ukraine, if you support stopping Putin’s aggression, come to the Spring March in Maryino on 1 March”.[32] On 10 February he had told Russia’s Sobesednik news website: “I’m afraid Putin will kill me”; news agencies reported a Kremlin spokesman saying that the killing had been condemned by Mr Putin.[32]
The dupes are right on this, over to you Vlad.
I noticed further down the wikipedia page that McCain was one of his backers.
McCain will be frothing at the mouth by the time for the Sunday talk shows.
LOL and he’ll call for boots on the ground for sure;)
The Wiki time stamp of 00:13 is interesting, does that mean the update on his death was posted 13 minutes or so after he was shot?? Do we know who posted the update?
On the related matter of who is responsible and what action should/might be taken:
What if Russia were to name ISIS the agent responsible for his death and with that rationale unite the ME states fighting ISIS under a Russian/Chinese banner to together put an end to ISIS. In every crisis is opportunity as someone once said.
‘Every cloud has a silver lining’..
The last one – and still over the Donbass – yielded the Crimea.
I suspect unity in the M.E. under Hezbollah is crystalizing: the recent take out on Syrian territory of one of their commanders was followed with a clear ‘eye for an eye’ response. I don’t think the Israelis were expecting it.
There are internal dissensions in Israel which don’t look good for Bibi. I suspect his days are numbered, and Israel will be experiencing it’s own ‘colour revolution’ , – only for real.

The Beautiful Truth about Minsk II & The Debaltsevo Debacle

Let’s call it the “Alberto Nisman” operation. Same professional hallmarks, different locales.
Kill the Instigator who is much, much more valuable dead than him being a spent cause.
Just saw the headline at RT. First thought: clearly a false flag, and a patently obvious one coming just the day before an opposition protest to try to drum up a Maidan in Moscow. Judging from the comments, I’m not the first to come to this conclusion.
Next stop, Saker, who greeted me with a headline confirming my suspicion, with his customary insight and pinpoint prescience about the next steps.
The thing about these false flag patterns is that if you do it enough, and with greater frequency, the algorithm becomes increasingly detectable to increasingly greater numbers until only the most fatuous and deluded can’t see through it. (Sadly, that comprises the majority in Murka.)
The one thing this proves, though, is that it sucks even more to be an ally of the amerizionazis than their foe.
At least,if still necessary porko knows how it will end up for him,the day he will not be needed anymore by the US,same for Yats and all the clique.

false flag: Oh no, not a “Je suis Nemtzov” march. If you have state power you do not need to gun someone down on the street especially someone rather insignificant in Russian politics. You can arrange suicide or accident. Since there is no need to cover this up, I predict they will find who did it.
Putin will demand this and get it.

“Porochoco and the US clique needs to re start the war at any price.YATS says today that the war will last for three years.How does he know?”
Basically, the (world) war MUST continue until one of the two possible outcomes. Either the AZs eliminate all rivals or the USD dies as a reserve currency. Note that the AZs do not even need to win. Losing the war works just as well as an excuse for the inevitable collapse. I am sure the AZ puppet masters have plenty of hard assets to ensure they will continue to be players in whatever system follows the dollar collapse.
Check this out, Wiki page is already updated, blaming on Putin

Israel’s web sayanim network doesn’t waste any time covering all the bases. They’ve got enough practice…
… an outspoken critic of Vladimir Putin. He was murdered less than 200 metres from the Moscow Kremlin walls and Red Square
Wow. Putin must have seen Nemtsov walking by and got so mad at the sight that he nipped out of the Kremlin clutching his trusty KGB revolver and shot him in person.
Saker,
You always think the FSB should know and prevent everything. No agency can do that.
They cannot operate like Felix Derzinski or Marcus Wolf.
And those guys couldn’t control everything.
The US + Britain + Israel is a huge enemy.
Russia, the Putin Russia, is really only a few years old. We can’t expect perfection.
They would be a bit more effective if he was totally ruthless. He’s not and they are not either.
This might have come down in the last 12 hours before the hit. How would they have prevented it?
When the blood dries, what has been lost?
They threw shit. Ultimately, it shows how hopeless their project is.
False flags are not only useful for promoting policy, they can draw attention away from it, as well. This weekend will be an ideal time to step up other zionazi aggressions besides that against Russia. Such as a provocation by the nazis in the Ukraine against Novorossia or Transneistria. An Israeli or American attack on Syria/Lebanon. Moves against Venezuela, Iran, Thailand or any of the other countries Israel-America want to recolonize.
Possible false flag rationale:
West plans big hit on Russian economy (such as banning Russian from SWIFT), and wants to psychologically freeze Russian leadership from giving a rational response.
The Western baddies may want Russia to preferably under-respond, though they may settle for an over-response (especially nutty McCain/Nuland types).
The above, I should emphasize, is speculation….
Also, let’s not forget that Putin’s obsession with Sochi security (thanks for nothing, Bandar Bush) may have distracted him from intervening in Ukraine in a way that would have preserved Yanukovych. (I read or heard something to this effect, very recently. Maybe here: http://scotthorton.org/interviews/2015/02/17/21715-christian-stork/ ; I don’t really remember where.)
The Western baddies maybe hoping for a repeat of this particular error on the part of Putin.
If so, Putin obsessing over the investigation would be exactly the wrong move.
Maybe not a false flag originally, although it will be exploited as such, since he most likely had any number of enemies who could have done it. But false flag is a good bet.
As for Putin being behind it, he was no real threat, and this would be a way too stupid to counter a threat even if he was one — certainly nothing Putin would do. Further, if he had done it there would likely already be a patsy set up to take the blame and cover tracks, as the US always does.
D’accord.
Maybe it’s even a mix: A jealous rival or ex-lover received a bunch of dollars (certainly not hryvnias) and a gun, and perhaps a hint that “tonight he’ll be in that part of Moscow”.
No matter the actual crime, it’s obvious how it’ll get exploted by the West. The timing though is just too perfect. A martyr is just what the doctor orders in cases where rallies don’t promise huge participation.
Reminds me of the paul Tatum murder in ’96. I was a few meters away from him in the Kiev Metro station when he was gunned down. The wiki details are wrong, I tried to make corrections but that was a waste of effort. I dont know why wiki insists that he was wearing a bullitproof vest when I know that he wasnt. I considered doing cpr on him but one could tell the he was blead out a few minutes after being shot numerous times in the back by .22 rounds. I shoud have kept some of the stray rounds that were sprayed off the walls of the station but I dutiffuly turned them over to the cops (who could not have cared less.)
and anti-russian racist orgy is in full force in the guardian…
The Guardian is a zionist Jewish exclusive club, of course there will an anti-Russian hate orgy there, it’s “homebase” for a substantial portion of the worldwide web sayanim network Israel operates.
The fast response of Israel’s web sayanim network confirms Israeli involvement in the murder. In fact, it confirms the Israelis planned it and carried it out.
Bok Tak look down a bit, Larchmonter has a long post which lists everyone visibly involved. Tel Aviv is not there. I don’t see them either. The simplicity and directness of this is not beyond the capacity even of Kiev. … who have offered to send saboteurs into Russia. And they have EUSA advisers.

Larchmonter has a long post which lists everyone visibly involved. Tel Aviv is not there. I don’t see them either. The simplicity and directness of this is not beyond the capacity even of Kiev. … who have offered to send saboteurs into Russia. And they have EUSA advisers.
So you and Larchmonter have all the answers, then? Whew, I’m relieved. I thought those zionists and pindos killed the man and wanted to fit up Putin for it You know, like a false flag. Like that 9/11 attack. Like the MH17 shootdown….
Why cover for the Israelis?
US wants to fit up Putin. Israel too and would also benefit, but doesn’t mean they were necessary operationally involved. Thinking Tel Aviv did everything is as bad as thinking Putin did everything. they all do delegation and division of labour, and even franchising..
Kat Kan
Thinking Tel Aviv did everything is as bad as thinking Putin did everything.
And always trying to exonerate the Israelis is as bad as always trying to blame the Russians.
The fact is, of all spook services aligned against the Russians, it is Mossad/Jewish mafia who have the best access to Russia and the largest and best placed network of assets there. By far.
I haven’t seen it yet, but such could also mean knowing about it ahead of time — or just a fast and well-organized propaganda machine.
Regardless of what seems likely by motive, means, and opportunity for various persons and groups, we should wait for evidence (and not make Sherlock Holmes ‘capital mistake’ or doing too much theorizing before the facts). Let’s see what the investigation yields, but in the meantime we can counter the jumping to conclusions and propaganda from the empire.
All in all, from I’ve read so far this guy was not all that important, even if the western press tries to blow him up to be. If you told most any American he was shot they would ask “Who??” Would Europeans be that different?
If anything, it is surprising that the AngloZionists have not attempted such a move earlier. While “9/11” was a major complex military false-flag operation (and “Boston bombing” a police-assisted farce), this one should have been technically easy in comparison.
Or it might only look that way.
For as Saker rightly notices: where was the FSB? Either that organization exhibited a complete incompetence, which is difficult to even imagine – or something else, quite more sinister is in question here.
In any case, not good for Russia. Not good indeed.
Agree. Putin knows for sure the empire is out to get him and needs to take precautions. That the West never minds resorting to dirty tricks if necessary should not come as a surprise.
This man was shot about 200 meters of Kremlin, 23:00 o’clock! What hell he was doing there??? If the West can do this kind of job so it’s something to worry about.
Miss the KGB era…
Combination of chemical ingestion and invite for sex.”Come on ,let’s do it at the Kremlin.that’ll show that *ucka Putin.” 4 pops an Bob’s your uncle.Choco’s hand,in back facing Kremlin, would appeal to him,like the MH17,he is desperate to please the neos.
I had a dream hour ago.Man in very high tower trying to defuse/fix some machine/bomb.Lots of rubber sized tennis balls with three or four fill-able valves.Enemy all around the tower.woke in sweat.keep seeing man’s face as remote view.When he looks at me,he very quickly moves out of picture.Very dark hair ,clean shaven,cold eyes,about thirty.There are so many new names here,I wonder about the level of computer attack.May have just quadrupled.USSA know they have the propaganda war sown up.As long as they don’t get another foothold on here .I also feel it was a mistake to use my blogger tag,as Google have the direct line to blama/Bibi et al.It’s getting more realer as ZH might say..cheers.
This is amazing. Picture perfect spot to suggest martyrdom at the hands of Power. On the foreground the bodybag, and then Saint Basil’s cathedral / Red Square shining right behind, calling all the attention to itself. This WAS planned, the spot was chosen for this precise effect.

Thanks for th e photo. It is like a movie set. Cannot be an accident that he was guided to or somehow just happened to stumble onto this stageset with the dramatic stagey backdrop that of all structures in Russia or Moscow, every idiot immediately recognizes. That’s why t his spot was chosen. Sure suggests that it was “staged” for a cinematic or good photo op effect . And if this is the locale for the march, then we can probably expect a big kitschy “photo-op” heap of flowers and dolls a la Princess Diana (nothing against Princess Di, but her death did sort of start a fad for this kind of maudlin memorializing).

Comments from Dmitry Babich on RT
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a4g-qAE9fuo
IMO the more false flags like this one or the murder of the Argentine judge will serve as a wake up call for those collaborators. They should ask themselves when they will be the target. Their lives are of no value of their “boss”.
Now THIS is weird.
“Co-chair of the RPR-PARNAS party Mikhail Kasyanov announced early Saturday that the march was cancelled because of Nemtsov’s death.
http://sputniknews.com/russia/20150228/1018865497.html#ixzz3T01GeEiY
”
So they’re not making a Je Suis thing of it. But cancelling the march.
Isn’t killing someone a drastic way to over up you were not going to have anyone turn up anyway? or do they hope for bigger turnout at a memorial type of march?
They felt that initial plans and visuals for the march were too joyful under circumstances; it was cancelled as a spontaneous emotional reaction. They were about to go to central Moscow close to the murder scene, on individual basis, in commemoration, but eventually agreed with the city authorities that a march through central Moscow will take place. So there is a march on 1 March still, but now with a memorial agenda and a central Moscow location. All that is largely spontaneous and emotional.
Nemtsov has been messing around in Ukraine dating back to the Orange Revolution. Who knows what type of gangsters he was involved with. In forming an alliance with the Russian ultra-right, he added an additional group of volatile and dangerous characters into the mix. The fact that Nemtsov was shot practically in front of the Kremlin is an obvious message, showing the lengths to which opponents of Russia are willing to go to destabilize the country. The killing was carried out in such a way as to provide the maximum embarrassment to Putin, while generating the most propaganda value. The killing would have been contracted through a cutout or a double-cutout, so the only question is who the patsy will be.
Saker,
I don’t believe that Western intelligence services would be able and/or stupid enough to launch such an operation at the heart of Moscow. The retaliation would be much more damaging to them than any possible benefits. The reaction in the Western press has been much less hysterical than it would be expected. And considering how demonized Putin has already been in the Western press, it’d be like preaching to believers.
I do think in three possibilities, though:
1. Business-related settling of scores through contract killing, trying to disguise itself as a political action in a perhaps too obvious way.
2. Dissident factions inside Russian secret services, sending a message to someone. Scary.
3. Lone nationalistic wolves.
4. Some minor and very russophobic intelligence agency, so minor that it can navigate below radar, hitting a politician so insignificant (with all due respect to the family in pain) that he didn’t even have bodyguards.
Yours is the most sane and sober evaluation here I have seen. To jump to a false flag conclusion right away is just not the most evident conclusion. A hit like this is always about money, blackmail, in combination with power (which Nemtsov had little of late). The politician in Nemtsov had become much less important.
Rogue criminal elements in Russia are much more likely than a false flag out of Ukraine or the West.
South Gorod
Yes, I know the drill, anyone but the ones who did it. Rather old routine…
“A “Nemtsov” prize will be created, a Nemtov statue will be place somewhere (in Warsaw?), the US Congress will pass a “Nemtsov law” and the usual combo package of “democratic hagiography” will be whipped-up.”
…. and you omitted: “… more sanctions applied on Russia”.
Only two possibilities: a false flag (by far the most likely) or somebody who was really pissed at him.
He DID have the knack of pissing people off really bad, as you can see in this clip from the 90s
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_aeijcg6Umo
FSB attention to this,this is not stupid at all,they cancel their march(in the suburbs) but want to relocate for a ”mourning gathering” in..central Moscow.
The Vesna (“Spring”) opposition rally scheduled for March 1 was canceled due to Nemtsov’s death, RPR-Parnas co-chairman and former Prime Minister Mikhail Kasyano said.
“We have finished a meeting on the rally on March 1. In connection to this tragic event – the murder of Boris Nemtsov – we have canceled the anti-crisis march in Maryino (District of Moscow) and intend to hold a mourning gathering in central Moscow on March 1. Tomorrow in the morning we will contact the Moscow mayor’s office,” he said. source RT
Сакральная жертва московского Майдана (Sacred victim Moscow Maidan)
Warm-up and preparation for the Moscow Maidan?
Resonance event will provide not only a figure who was killed – the Germans was a very well-known. Not only the murder scene – the center of the capital, near the residence of the head of state. But most importantly – the time of the murder. March 1 opozitsiya plans to hold a march and rally in the capital.
Not by chance in social networks at once began to talk about “the sacred victim.” Procession of the opposition may well in these conditions turn into the beginning of the Moscow Maidan.
A well-known member of the opposition, Mikhail Kasyanov has belolentochnik sprinkles curses against murderers who “respond fully.”
Saturday will be the day hysteria expected in the liberal media and the Internet. It seems the liberals have already assigned the perpetrators, and they expected to be “bloody Putin’s regime.”
Are our people will buy a tantrum and 1 March to the streets of Moscow and really come out hundreds of thousands of people?
March 1 – the day the Triumph of Orthodoxy. God grant that this day was a day of blood …
By the way, the February Revolution in 1917 also began in the second week of Lent.
Оппозиция приняла решение прорваться в центр Москвы. Выбор места убийства Немцова становится ясен (The opposition decided to break into the center of Moscow. Selecting the scene of the murder Nemtsov becomes clear)
Opposition in connection with the murder of Boris Nemtsov decided to appoint a funeral march in central Moscow.
This was told by one of the organizers of the co-chairman of the RPR-Parnas Mikhail Kasyanov.
According to him, decided to appoint a funeral march in central Moscow. In this regard, discussions are underway with the authorities.
Refusal to authorize the march organizers Moscow Maidan not bother. Action will be carried out regardless of the outcome of negotiations.
The idea of the organizers of the “sacred victim” becomes clear. As the choice of the murder scene Nemtsov – the walls of the Kremlin.
Task is to go “funeral march” in the center of the capital and a foothold in the hallowed tragic murder territory. Create the walls of the Kremlin constantly working camp, t. E. Maidan.
Time and place of execution Nemtsov are just what we needed, including the possible overclocking because “mourner” Maidana will be treated as particularly cynical action “bloody regime.”
We hope that cynical, but clear plans not get caught by surprise provocateurs Moscow police and the Russian security services.
1: opposed “Russian aggression” in Donbass
2: strong Ukrainian connections
3: Ukie girl with him, perhaps suggesting romantic stroll on the well lit bridge in iconic location close to the Evil Kremlin
4: has anyone in Kiev been talking about SENDING SABOTEURS to RUSSIA lately?
5: how many Ukrainian men fled to Russia unchecked lately?
6: can’t blame FSB for not being mind readers; this was organised with no phone calls or anything, they just need to check the girl’s phone.
Provocation yes, false flag no. False flag must CLEARLY POINT to a perpetrator, this does not. Putin so obviously had no danger from this guy and has no benefit from something like this. Evil KGB style is car accident or “suicide”, not public contract killing.

Provocation yes, false flag no. False flag must CLEARLY POINT to a perpetrator, this does not. Putin so obviously had no danger from this guy and has no benefit from something like this.
Let’s see, Putin clearly derived no benefit from the murders of Politkovskaya or Litvinenko, nor the shooting down of MH17, yet the zionazis clearly pinned the rap on him in their propaganda. Nemtsov was killed to pin the rap on Moscow. Whether it’s a logical association is meaningless. The Jewish owned/run zio-media don’t need logic for their propaganda – never did. Just good marketing tactics.
It is a provocation. It is a false flag.
It is being run the exact same way the zionazis ran their Politkovskaya and Litvinenko false flags. Same use of the media, exact same use of the web sayanim network. The extremely quick organisation of that web sayanim network behind this false flag screams Israel organised the hit.
This story is going nowhere: none of the major MSM rags and lie-ops outlets have this as their number 1 story except the Stinkin’ BBC.
I just love watching the BBC flay in frustration as the world leaves them and the shitty self-deluded hacks that work there in the dust of irrelevance and impotence.
Hi, I just wanted to link to my blog post, it has my observations about why this is a false flag event. http://www.thicktoast.com/nemtsov-assassination-false-flag-event/ Thanks, and may Nemtsov rest in peace.
Hi Jennifer,
This is a very good blog! I translated it into Russian:
Thank you so much,
Marina
mysterious coalition of “Anglo-Zionists”…anything to deflect minds, from the real heroes of today…moderate muslims…
British are blaming nationalist extremists.
Strelkov and the voentorg will be blamed by the West next round.
The Media will keep pounding Putin and then they will switch to the supporters of Novorossiya who finance and volunteer for the separatist movement.
Hit was probably oligarch sponsored. Top notch setup. That takes a good high level mind.
The setting is the message of who sponsored it. Anti-Kremlin, anti-Putin. Not likely to be nationalist. If nationalists were going to hit someone, they’d knock off someone inside government or someone like Surkov. This was not a hit. It was a sacrifice.
He could have given another thousand speeches, but his one martyrdom is worth ten thousand speeches.
US/CIA would have chosen the spot for the iconic imagery in history.
It’s like Tiananmen.
Can’t stage a Maidan? Spill blood on the doorstep. Sacrifice a “leader”.
Who are the stakeholders in this assassination?
Obama
Ukraine
Fifth Columnists
Russian Liberals
EU
NATO
State Department
CIA
MI6
Russian Oligarchs on the outside
Ukrainian Oligarchs
It was an easy decision. Any Targeting Officer of an Intel agency could have gotten this done quite easily. Honeypot from Ukraine, one driver, one shooter.
One dead martyr. Historical images and endless stories to relate. All negative for Russia and Putin.
They are losing the war. They’ll shoot Porky if they think it will help them extend sanctions.
Hell, they’ll shoot the American Ambassador if they think it will help.
They already killed an ambassador in Benghazi, so that Rubicon was crossed years ago.
Did anyone see this? Proves that US companies are owned by the US government. I mentioned before how the US security services kick off startups of
technology and funds them enough to get seed grants from angel investors which later become Facebook, Google etc.. But the government still holds the title if not overtly. So when Google and Facebook comes out and says they are fighting the government and protecting the peoples privacy but we see behavior such as this we know they are lying.. Just unbelievable that the worlds greatest empire is all done with smoke and mirrors and invisible strings. Its magic.. far better than Copperfield can ever hope to achieve. So many aspects are controlled by the US government that it is mindboggling. It would only work if the government was in direct control of all these things and not via proxy as we regularly believe. Because by the time the justice dept. gets JPM to stop a bank transfer to Iran, it would be too late to stop it. It would take weeks of legal wrangling to get it done but they can do it in hours with a single phone call without any threats or other small talk.
“MEGA has demonstrated that it is as compliant with its legal obligations as USA cloud storage services operated by Google, Microsoft, Apple, Dropbox, Box, Spideroak etc, but PayPal has advised that MEGA’s ‘unique encryption model’ presents an insurmountable difficulty,” Mega wrote.

Ольшанский: Убийцы Немцова хотели замазать кровью Кремль (Olshansky: Assassins Nemtsov wanted to cover up the blood of the Kremlin)
Russian publicist said he expects provocations against the Russian president in Ukraine, but it happened in Moscow.
Killer Boris Nemtsov had one goal – to destabilize Russian society, says Dmitry Olshansky. Publicist told LifeNews, it is profitable opponents of the Russian government, especially now, when Russia began through the efforts of the peace process in Ukraine, and domestic fewer people come to the opposition marches.
– It is clear that some political forces want to gloss over the president’s authority and blood Kremlin late Boris Nemtsov – said Olshansky. – Just calm the situation occurred in the Donbass, Vladimir Putin held talks with Hollande and Merkel. And the first day of the opposition rally did not inspire a feeling that it will come a huge crowd. Everything was somehow quietly. I have a feeling that someone wanted to get a shot in this situation, to somehow cheer her, vzyarit.
Dmitry Olshansky argues that the murder of Boris Nemtsov extremely beneficial opponents of the Russian president, if only because that is already the foreign press headlines look like this: “Putin critic killed in Moscow.” In addition, the opposition in Russia to get stronger stimulus and loudly accused the Kremlin of involvement in the crime.
– I see here provocation. This is the most obvious idea – summarizes Russian publicist. – But I was absolutely convinced that the provocation will be in Ukraine – an explosion or terrorist attack. But it happened in Moscow.
Dmitry Olshansky explained why the choice of the murderers fell on Boris Nemtsov. According to him, the politician was killed combines two qualities: on the one hand has a bright biography and was widely known, and on the other – was not so necessary to his patrons and sponsors, such as Alexei Navalny.
4 bullets in the back is not a mugger, i’m very disappointed in these comments from you Saker. This was Not a False Flag. That’s rubbish.
And so it starts ….
Selected quotes from the Aust ABC
Read between the lines …..
Mr Nemtov had been due to take part in the first big opposition protest in months in the Russian capital on Sunday.
Mikhail Kasyanov, a fellow opposition leader, told reporters at the bridge: “That a leader of the opposition could be shot beside the walls of the Kremlin is beyond imagination. There can be only one version: that he was shot for telling the truth.”
A fighter for rights and democracy
Mr Kasyanov said it was payback “for the fact that Boris consistently, for many, many years fought for Russia to be a free democratic country.”
Mr Nemtsov launched his political career as the governor of Nizhny Novgorod region in central Russia and became a vice prime minister in the late 1990s under the presidency of Boris Yeltsin.
Mr Nemtsov had been quoted as saying he was concerned that the president might want him dead over his opposition to the conflict in Ukraine.
Sunday’s opposition march is intended as a protest against the war in east Ukraine, where pro-Russian rebels have seized a swathe of territory.
Opposition figure Ksenia Sobchak said Mr Nemtsov had been preparing a report on the presence of Russian troops in Ukraine.
The Kremlin strongly denies allegations by Kiev and Western capitals that it has sent troops and advanced weaponry to back the rebels.
Like other opposition leaders, Mr Nemtsov was a fighter against corruption.
In other reports, he condemned massive overspending on the Sochi Winter Olympics by the Russian authorities and listed the many state buildings, helicopters and planes that Mr Putin has at his disposal.
Mr Nemtsov was also one of the leaders of mass rallies in the winter of 2011-12 that became the biggest protests against Mr Putin since the former KGB spy rose to power in 2000.
(Mr Putin …. the former KBG spy ….. we will need James Bond to save us!)
“We call upon the Russian government to conduct a prompt, impartial, and transparent investigation into the circumstances of his murder and ensure that those responsible for this vicious killing are brought to justice,” Mr Obama said in a statement.
“Nemtsov was a tireless advocate for his country, seeking for his fellow Russian citizens the rights to which all people are entitled.
“I admired Nemtsov’s courageous dedication to the struggle against corruption in Russia and appreciated his willingness to share his candid views with me when we met in Moscow in 2009,” Mr Obama added, calling Mr Nemtsov a “dedicated” and “eloquent defender” of rights.
It is all there, all the ingredients, ‘Putin did it, Putin is corrupt ….”
It would be funny if the implications were not so serious.
How can it be that now is presented to Nemtsov as a fighter against corruption?
According to one commentator in Público.es :”Nemtsov was collaborator of Kasyanov, former prime minister and known as the “Mr 10%” which earned many entrepreneurs and others to obtain licenses. He makes a close resemblance between the head of Nemtsov, Kasyanov and Jesus Gil ( Spanish oligarquical mafia )
Also declares: “Nemtsov benefited from these kickbacks from his boss. Some people do not forget. Kasyanov and his people are not wanted in Russia”.
This is a major failure for the FSB which will now have a lot at stake to find out who did it. I expect them to find a fall-guy, a patsy, who will have no provable contacts with any western services and who, ideally, might even have some contacts with the Russian services (like Andrei Lugovoi). >> Unless the FSB is anti-Putin, forgive me for asking the obvious: Why doesn’t the FSB instead of framing a “patsy,” which does no good even for itself, actually solve the crime and name the assassins even if these turn out to be are CIA operatives?
Judging from the photos of his Ukrainian woman friend, I’d say that his wife should be a prime suspect.
Nah. You don’t think this is the first time he’d gone walking with a young woman not his wife? and she’s not very comfortably off leading her own life in a very nice house/mansion/apartment or two?
Some commenters suggested maybe her ex boyfriend or brother didn’t approve of her being with a katsap or Moskal, but then they’d more likely beat her up, not shoot him.
So it’s not likely personal. It’s political, and targeting Putin, we just don’t know who actually did it.
Yes we do..
This was a professional job which required state resources and not the usual professional hit. It happened in a highly secure and monitored area and is directly targeted at Putin. For the target to show up at that particular place and the hit to have taken place, shows that a group was involved maybe even including the girl he was with otherwise it would have required at least 2 spotters and a runner. I am sure the FSB has already figured out whose were.. The people in the van would be long gone by now without leaving a trace which again means more people. All of it suggests a major operation only the CIA can be capable of doing using their NED apparatus. None of the lesser based organizations would have been able to pull this off like they did at this time. We can immediately exclude the brother and ex boyfriend and the like. At least 10 people well trained and briefed were needed. I highly doubt even the British would be able to pull something of this magnitude off and next to the US they are the most powerful intelligence org.
He finished a radio interview about 2 hours before. Time for a meal followed by a walk, possibly chosen for the good theatrical location. By her? his people? himself? anyone sitting in a car at the right spot can see them start to walk. The car could have driven past and back several times, for all we know, until they got to a spot with no other people (not hard in the cold at midnight). Jump out, empty the magazine, 4 shots hit the rest miss, back in car, drive off. This takes a total of 2 people, maybe with the girl but doable without, if his schedule is known…which is was.
Two people plus the girl, that’s all. Drive off, dump car (it’s been found) walk around the corner to prepared other car. Five hours to Belarus, 7 to Kharkov. But only 1 to a Ukrainian displaced persons/draft dodger settlement and take the train in the morning, driver and shooter splitting up.
The model had just recently aborted Nemtsov’s baby, according to this:
Ольшанский: Убийцы Немцова хотели замазать кровью Кремль (Olshansky: Assassins Nemtsov wanted to cover up the blood of the Kremlin)
At the moment the investigation is considering several versions of the murder of politician . One of them – revenge for his mistress, Anne Duritskaya Ukrainian model, which has recently had an abortion by Nemtsov.
According to Russian media I’ve seen, Nemtsov’s wife isn’t a suspect. The fact the model wasn’t killed to me says she is probably either irrelevant to the crime or ordered it done herself. That latter reason seems to be quite a stretch, so I’m going with the former.
If I didn’t know who did it I wouldn’t place blame. That is called “bearing false witness”.
http://www.vz.ru/photoreport/731941/#ad-image-1
Eery shot.
It definitely sends a message.
It would seem like he got in bed with some nasty folks and they just wanted to tie up loose ends or sacrifice him to send this message.
I’m absolutely certain _this is a False Flag operation.
Nemtzov no longer had any viable carrier as a politician and thus far lost any value to his bosses at Langley. Nobody in Russia was taking him seriously and just about everybody saw him as a contemptuous traitor and a thoroughly pathetic opportunist. He became a distant and irrelevant memory – nothing more than that. Killing him with such theatrics was clearly done for the benefits of the western MSM which will be spinning it to no end for the next few weeks, at least, until Kardishan shows yet another “back side of her personality” and all of it will be forgotten.
If Putin wanted to eliminate this useless phantom of a politician he could’ve done it in a very different manner. But above all, Putin has no reasons to kill those who are already dead, at least as a viable opposition.
If this was a false flag — as seems likely — then the target would not seem to me to be the western MSM so much as the Russians, and particularly to strengthen the maidan movement, or to effect a shift in it’s leadership. That would benefit the empire, but as an internal Russian affair, not on the international stage.
I guess that false flags are the new normal. It is actually a low cost/ low effort way to get a few public relation brownie points for the global hegemon. It only works, however on the half conscious — or those whose personal interest conflicts with the true matters of affairs. The effect is short lived and larger doses will be needed to produce the same effect– satanic political economy.
Isn’t it funny how this guy with so little following that his name isn’t known by anybody in the West, in contrast to say Navalny, suddenly turns into a “popular opponent of Putin” in our news outlets the day he gets murdered.
I wouldn’t be surprised if many of the journalists had to double-check the name they’d never heard before.
Actually, I would be surprised, because all they do, judging from articles in the German Frankfurter Allgemeine and the Sueddeutsche that I compared, they just copy-and-paste from Reuters and dpa, rearrange the sections, reformulate sentences (a good thesaurus is of the essence to any serious Western reporter), and then press the “submit” button.
Don’t you see the brilliance behind this assassination? There is now a shrine on an important bridge right next to Red Square. The liberals have already cancelled Sunday’s demonstration in the suburbs in favor of meeting at the scene of the crime, and of course everyone including Yabloko will have to show up. Sobyanin has to either deny them access and face a riot, or have the Red Square area turned into a large demonstration site, which of course will not disperse until satisfactory perpetrators have been apprehended. They will get their Maiden. Hats off to the CIA/Mossad/MI6/Right sector or whoever thought this up. They play chess well. Let’s hope Putin and the Russian people can play the next move correctly.
Yep: this hit makes the iconic bridge a flashpoint for the forces of darkness. Whenever it takes place, the provocation level of the march has risen exponentially.
