Putin has no future in Russia. Why? He is an anachronism and  is someone that belongs in the 19th or 20th Centruy but not in modern Russia.   He gives the Russian middle class no free choice economically or politically.  He hurts Russia, not only in terms of their international reputation, but also in the day to day economic fates of the normal Russian citizen.

Patriot Gary Kasparov talks about Putin’s affect on Russia in his call that Putin to leave amid Vladimir Putin protests. Kasparov does a better job than I do articulating the issue with Moscow’s politics.

What else can be said? Moscow’s future, Russia’s future and all the countries that interact with the CIS need to make this happen so the future of this great country can be one of world leadership for democracy and peace.

Kasparov write:

We declare that during the years of his rule, Putin has become the symbol of corrupt and unpredictable country that is pitiless in its treatment of its own citizenry. It is a country in which citizens have no rights and are for the most part in poverty. It is a country without ideals and without a future.

Russia, Putin and ideals

For me what hurts my heart the most is Russia is turning away from any idea other than thug run fascist like youth rallies. What about ideals of the enlightenment? What about ideals of truth, God, family values, free speech, non-violence?

Putin’s regime has used intimidation, blockage, legal power to crush any protests and support for democracy. His thugs have hacked into Internet site, arrested, assassinated those who oppose him. Is this a Christian? Is the someone who is idealistic?
