Russia inches closer to dictatorship
From the news:President Vladimir Putin ordered an overhaul of Russia's political system Monday, reacting to a three-week onslaught of terrorism with plans for the most extensive political shakeup since the collapse of the Soviet Union.Governments are so stupid. The separatist movement in Northern Ireland was never solved by military crack-downs. It continued to fester until the people's demands were taken into consideration. It's the same for Chechnya.
The former KGB spy's directive for revamping the way Russia is governed included an end to the direct popular election of governors and a major rearrangment in the rules for selecting members of parliament, already deeply loyal to the Kremlin.
