Not Worth Killing

Putin has an 85 per cent approval rating.

Nemtsov's was around one per cent. A poll in 2013 found him to be the least trusted politician in Russia.

Electorally, he was one of the least successful.

He was not worth killing. At least, not if the audience for doing so was intended to be Russian.

  1. I do find it funny that absolutely nobody disputes that Putin is morally incapable of doing this (based on his character) the only dispute is whether he had anything to gain from doing it.

    If he's not guilty of this, the scum is certainly guilty of Magnitsky, Politkovskaya, torture and mass murder in Chechnya and the rest.

    I guess after life under communism life under a mafia despot doesn't seem so bad. You have to feel for the people of Russia.
