AFP: ‘Russian Died For Knowledge of Arms Deals’

March 6th, 2007 · No Comments

Freedom in Russian imageIn a post early today, Bob McCarty Writes reported about the increasing number of Russians and non-Russians — most journalists — meeting untimely deaths after speaking out against the regime of former KGB leader-turned Russian President Vladimir Putin. Now, thanks to an Agence France Press article, we now know why the most recent death likely occurred.

According to AFP sources, reporter Ivan Safronov had told colleagues at his newspaper, Kommersant, that he had “received information” about the sale of Sukhoi-34 fighter jets to Syria and S-300 anti-aircraft missiles to Iran via Belarus.

Demand Freedom imageIn the United States, a lot of people understand the statement, “Freedom isn’t free.” Now, thanks to Putin, many Russians who are trying to bring freedom to their country are learning the meaning of those words, paying the ultimate price.

If you know someone in Russia who longs for true freedom, show your support for their struggle by wearing one of the high-quality items available at The Bob McCarty Shop. The Russian-language designs feature translations of the words, “Freedom!” and “Demand Freedom!” To see all of the items available, click here or click on one of the images shown.
