Nemtsov assassination
Is another attempt to destabilize Russia? In truth, I never heard his name (although I am not particularly fond of politics). After his death, he became more famous. [and from another]I was watching the news coverage about the murder of Netsov in Russia. I suspect there is much more here then we see. I suspect he being loud and public critic of Putin was a ploy. I suspect he was partnered with Putin in some fashion and his criticism was meant to draw out the Russian elite who were operating anonymously from the shadows. I also suspect the Russian elite had recruited him and discovered he was with Putin and knowing too much they murdered him. Would they Zetas care to comment on this event. [and from another]http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-31669061 Russia opposition politician Boris Nemtsov shot dead. A leading Russian opposition politician, former Deputy Prime Minister Boris Nemtsov, has been shot dead in Moscow, Russian officials say. An unidentified attacker in a car shot Mr Nemtsov four times in the back as he crossed a bridge in view of the Kremlin, police say. He died hours after appealing for support for a march on Sunday in Moscow against the war in Ukraine. Russian President Vladimir Putin has condemned the murder, the Kremlin says. President Putin has assumed “personal control” of the investigation into the killing, said his spokesman Dmitry Peskov. Investigators said the murder could have been “a provocation aimed at destabilising the country”. The investigative committee said in a statement that several motives for the killing were being considered including “Islamic extremism”. Ukraine President Petro Poroshenko described Mr Nemtsov as a “bridge between Ukraine and Russia”. “The murderers’ shot has destroyed it. I think it is not by accident,” he said in a statement published on his administration’s Facebook page. In a recent interview, Mr Nemtsov had said he feared Mr Putin would have him killed because of his opposition to the war in Ukraine. [and from another] http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2015/feb/28/russian-investigators-killing-putin-critic-boris-n/ Russia’s top investigative body said Saturday it is looking into several possible motives for the killing of prominent opposition figure Boris Nemtsov, including an attempt to destabilize the state, Islamic extremism, the Ukraine conflict and his personal life.

The government does not need the death of any political opponents.

The girl who accompanied Boris Nemtsov at the moment of his murder is a citizen of Ukraine. [and from another]http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/europe/ukraine/11436525/Russia-could-shut-off-gas-to-Ukraine-by-weekend.htm February 26, 2015. Kremlin accuses Kiev of falling behind on scheduled payments for gas and threatens to cut off supplies within days, risking flow of gas to Europe
What does it say when the assassination of Nemtsov occurs the day after Putin threatens to cut off gas to the Ukraine, “within days”. This hit the news, printed in the Telegraph on February 26, and the next day, February 27, Nemtsov was shot in the back. He clearly did not expect this as he was strolling past the Kremlin, in a very public place on the open street, with his girl friend, after a meal in a very public and popular restaurant on the Red Square. This was of course a setup, arranged so that a casual read of the shooting would link the assassination with the Kremlin, and thus the public would hopefully blame Putin.
Putin of course was not involved. Why would he stoop to this, when he was winning on all fronts in the Ukraine? The latest attempt by Kiev to shell eastern Ukraine and claim the rebels were at fault had failed to bring the US or Europe to their aid. Their attempts to grab the Russian oil and gas fields lying just over the border had repeatedly failed, and now they were once again left only with the gas bill. Those who would shoot down MH 17 in an attempt to induce others to fight their war for them would of course not hesitate to shoot a man in the back. This too will fail as it is intuitively obvious that Putin is winning and would have no reason to pull such a stunt. But the thugs in Kiev clearly would do so.
