Notes From the Rear: Part III
More stories from Russians as they try to survive their society’s collapse
In response to the rising incidents of sabotage inside Russia against military facilities, railway lines, recruiting stations, and other infrastructure, former Russian President and now Assistant Head of the National Security Council Dmitry Medvedev recently said that Russia could reinstate the death penalty if it feels that the security of the Russian state is at risk.
However, the bizarrely big-headed, little marionette said, “he wouldn’t advise that such a change take place because it’s beneath the dignity of Russia.”
Setting aside the fact that his words are always a giant crock of steaming, rancid chum, what caught my interest about this article, which I read in one of Russia’s most popular government-censored online sites, Fontanku.ru, were the comments to Medvedev’s words.
Below is a listing of some of the more clever and, even say, brave ones (this link takes you to the posts below). Also, so that you know, a reader must give an active email account to post comments.
