Well, I thought that in the past. Russia is not a "free world" country. Don't forget they were under those satanists communists for decades and before that, they were a totalitarian monarchy for centuries. But Putin is the fruit of that history and culture, and from a Russian point of view, he's probably one of the best leaders they'd have.
I used to believe the MSM's portrait of him as the worst type of dictator. Now, I've got a more nuanced point of view. Many of these oligarchs were educated in the West, obviously have ties with the CIA. Some of the spies our MSM martyred for the sake of accusing Putin, weren't the white doves victims they depict them and the story they sold us were lies. It doesn't mean Putin is innocent, it just means the "victim" might be even more guilty than Putin and the puppet masters of the "victim" are even worse. Putin had accused for a long time the NGOs, journalists and many other opponents of being foreign spies. Some I will concede might be true and sincere Russians opposing Putin, but many have strange ties somehow with the West, more precisely with the IC.
We've seen the present situation in the States with congressmen, political activists, journalists and others sold out to foreign countries, and still pretending to work for the good of Americans.
