солидарност is Solidarity in Russian

I don't speak Russian. I couldn't find a website.

"Solidarity" is a great name from recent Polish history, with a great tradition. Let's hope Kasparov and the others can achieve half as much as they did.

Yeah, don't accept that invite for a nice sushi dinner with Putin, Gary.

Or eat any food made in Russia. Or be in Russia. Or be where Russian agents can find you.

You have to respect Kasparov and anyone else who joins this party. They're taking a big risk. I wish them well.

TFA: Over 150 delegates attended Saturday's founding congress at a hotel near Moscow.

Pro-Kremlin youth activists held a demonstration outside the hotel.


I love how the pro kremlin youth groups protest the opposition parties. Do they want dictatorship or something?

Kasparov/Palin '09

Watching Putin rear his head since '08.

Kasparov to "disappear" in 3...2...

 
Phil Moskowitz 2008-12-13 10:46:28 AM  
Kasparov is a shill for the neocons, but considering what Russia is looking at right now, he's not so bad.

 
stickmangrit [TotalFark] 2008-12-13 10:51:30 AM  
this just in...

former chess champion Gary Kasparov was found dead in a sewage treatment plant in Moscow. police reports state that he was taking a late night stroll when he suffered a sudden brain hemorrhage. the hemorrhage was approx. 9mm wide. police are still unable to locate his next of kin to notify them of Kasparov's unfortunate death, but they do not suspect foul play. Kasparov was also found with his penis and testicles in his mouth, which had been sewed shut, but police are insisting that the wounds were self inflicted.

that's all the news for tonight comrades, all hail our great leader Putin.

He is probably already dead.

Etc.

Just FYI, Kasparov has been leading anti-Kremlin opposition groups for the past 4 or 5 years. None of these groups have accomplished anything. Kasparov is perfectly safe, he's not apparently not a threat worth dealing with.

Yes, they do.

this is cool, but I really fear for his health & safety. Putin is a ruthless kgb killing machine.

Kasparov is not an ethnic Russian. He is Jewish.
Jewish groups around the world hate Putin. I guess, because he got rid of the Jewish oliagarths. Kasparov is their front man.
Why should Jews be allowed to control Russians? Ethnic Russians should be allowed to rule themselves.
How Israelis accept arabs as their rulers?

Does anybody else laugh when they hear Putin's name? See...'cause it sounds like "pooting..." ya know...farts?

Just me?

Okie-dokie then.

 
RemyDuron 2008-12-13 03:02:47 PM  
Eh, Kasparov doesn't sound like a solution either. But weakening Putin would be a good thing for the world. Not sure it would be a good thing for Russia.

I do not know how the Americans will reconcile the fact that the only real opposition to United Russia (Putin's party) is ... the Communist Party (the RSFSR CP wasn't banned by Gorbachev unlike the all-Union party).

If Kasparov can do it without the communists, more power to him I say.

Obviously I was going on memory, but Wikipedia seems not to agree with me. My bad, but now I do not know what is going on.

Is it really opposition if it has seats in Duma?

"Kasparov is not an ethnic Russian. He is Jewish."

Actually, his father is father is Jewish (surname Weinstein) and his mother is Armenian. He would be like the Barack Obama of Russia.

Yeah, Russians are pretty much getting stiffies thinking about having Putin be their dictator for life.

If Russia let all the lands go that are not filled with ethnic Russians then they would be much smaller indeed.
