Gary Kasparov Arrested

Fortunately there are Americans like you.

Hopefully I'm part of a silent majority that will get together to vote against this republican/democrat regime of endless war and American exceptionalism. But like Emma Goldman said: "If voting changed anything they'd make it illegal."

Yeah, there is no evidence of Russian troops ever entering Ukraine. It's all been removed:

You trust Pravda? You should be reading Novaja Gazeta:

??? Stuff

Who needs satellite evidence when you have such great evidence in that USA Today article?

Russia is led by a KGB man.It is an awfull place with a history of GULAGS.Ten million Ukrainians were starved to death by Stalin in 1932/33.The Communist Party of USSR killed some 60 million people between 1920 and 1980.Russia has now invaded Ukraine.Putin kills off his opposition members of parliament and pesky journalists.

Ahem... That's Ukraine Today. They're a bit closer to the action.

Each and every media outlet in Ukraine lies at 100%. All that said and written in the Ukraine — a complete lie.

I guess that makes Russian media more truthful, with all lies except for Novaya Gazeta, the only remaining independent news source. By the way, did you read that NG article I posted about the Russian soldier who was wounded in Ukraine? I don't speak Russian, so I don't know what they gave as his reason for having been there. Maybe you could help?

Because Garry Kasparov, one of the great chess legends, is involved in Russian opposition politics and therefore in danger of being assassinated by Putin. We are collectively hoping that the Russian state will collapse before that happens.

Besides not belonging on a chess site, saying what "we" collectively hope is

highly offensive and I totally disagree with it anyway.

Yes, news owned by a pro-Kremlin totally is a reliable source, especially because there is totally no propaganda in Russia.

Kasparov has taken the risks himself, gotta handle them himself.

Well, there's some yankee logic for ya right there.

Imagine there were three men.  Tom, Dick, and Harry.  They organised a club.  They're all hanging at the clubhouse one day, and Harry says, "I don't really like this club anymore.  I'm leaving."  Then Tom and Dick say, "Well, wait a second.  You can't leave without a vote.  We both vote that you have to stay."  Harry says, "No, I really want to leave and I'm leaving."  Then Tom and Dick physically restrain Harry, not letting him leave.

The example I've just given describes a case of kidnappping.  Harry is well within his right to defend himself, try to fight off Tom and Dick, and get the heck out of there.  Tom and Dick don't have the right to tell Harry what he can and can not do just because they call it a "vote".  This would also be true if Tom, Dick and Harry were names given to groups of people.

There's no evidence in this article of a Russian invasion of the Ukraine. Is this evidence for you?:

"Having completed the examination of the crime scene on Bolshoi Moskvoretsky bridge in downtown Moscow near the Kremlin, investigators came to Nemtsov's apartment on Malaya Ordynka street which overlooks the bridge from the crime scene.

Some opposition figures say the search was to find and eliminate any evidence of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, which Nemtsov claimed to have in his possession.

Ukraine's President Poroshenko said Nemtsov had told him recently he had compiled evidence of Russia's military presence in Ukraine."

There are no satellite pictures of an invasion. No video evidence. Where are the videos from USA-Ukraine Today? Satellites can take pictures clear enough to see a license plate number anywhere on earth but they can't take a picture of a Russian invasion? Why? That's because there was/is no invasion.

Nope he's a guest of the USA. If he is attacked, we will consider it an attack by Russia on the USA. The Ukraine,including Crimea, will be defended. Putin will be removed,and only then will Russia be allowed to participate in the international economy.

No country is going to risk nuclear war for Gary Kasparov

Where do they tell you these fairy tales?

Nope, it's like if you take an oath to join the Army,and your company is ordered to war. One member decides to desert, but the other members won't let him,and he is forced to live up to his commitment to the other members of his company. This is good and correct.
