@stux hmmm... it is interesting what is going on with their leader, but ive been skeptical about a lot of this type of news because you only see one side which often times gets pushed incorrectly.

@stux There will be manner of disinformation, assumptions, speculations and confusion. This could go on for years. If you are unfamiliar with Russian Revolutions, read up on the one in 1917 (V. Lenin and crowd).
