'Vladolf' 'RatPutin' - The Free Press catches on (Vadimir Putin)

'

Obviously the Free Press is catching on, and I like to mention,

as regards my 'Too Far Above The Journalists' series, *(1)
which I am going to name the

'Introduction To Journalism Series,'

in order to educate future journalists,

I like to mention the journalist (who still in true journalistic
and ingrained tradition of repulsion against telling the truth,
fails) to mention Vladimir Putins intentions and nature, BUT

who writes clearly and obviously the results observed so far
from the intentions and nature of Russia's Putin,

from which a very intelligent and willing reader, could
in fact deduce (glean, distill) the actual intentions and
nature, and thus extrapolate the intended actions of
'Vladolf' 'RatPutin,'

a pun on Adolf Hitler and on the Russian, equally
demonic personality known as Rasputin,

Putin's actions so far, are well describe by journalist

'Men of all nations came
to listen to Solomon's wisdom,
sent by all the kings of the world,
who had heard of his wisdom.'

1 Kings 4:34
'

I quote from the - relatively speaking - very excellent article:

'Putin is claimed by some to have a personal fortune in offshore bank
accounts in Liechtenstein [Switzerland], and Luxembourg [Europe],
while establishing an authoritarian regime that has established a
stranglehold over all the key levers of power.'

' ... explains Grigory Yavlinsky, the leader of Yabloko (Apple), one
of the few truly independent political parties still participating
in the election campaign:

'"Putin has the system so closely controlled that he is able to
arrange
the result of a so-called democratic election weeks before that
election has even taken place".'

'"It was very strange how we would win thousands of votes in the
provinces, but when they came to be counted in Moscow they had
somehow been reduced to just a few hundred," says Yavlinsky.
"No wonder no one stands a chance of defeating Putin in the coming
elections."'

'In order to get funds and media exposure, a party must give the
Kremlin a firm assurance that it will not discuss controversial
issues, such as state corruption, or the way the ruling elite uses
the courts to intimidate its opponents.
Once that assurance is forthcoming, the party will receive money for
its campaign and its candidates will be allowed to appear on
television.

The result is that on most nights, the main news topic is a [full of
praise] eulogistic account of Putin's latest activities, whether that
be posing semi-naked on a fishing expedition or travelling to Teheran
to lecture the Americans on the futility of launching military action
against Iran. With coverage like this, it is hardly surprising that
Putin's approval rating rarely dips below the 80 per cent mark.'

'There is, though, a dark underbelly to this resurgent Russian bear
which, despite the formidable powers at its disposal, remains highly
sensitive to criticism, whether from home or abroad.'
