The western backed terrorists are on the back foot. They are struggling in all areas, as they are being taken out without the mass civilian casualties that they and the west aimed to bring about. The western propaganda machine then has to swing in to try to assist the western terrorist capaign which is failing. These western terrorists are pushed from the cities into the forests, where they get eliminated. Good news for ordinary people, bad news for the west. We should take this as a clear message that the west's campaign of terror in our country is not working, and better that it is being reveresed. Ordinary people on the ground are tired of being used by western governments for their geopolitical games. They want prosperity, they want to live their lives in a normal way, without western violence.

It is true that the Russian police has a very bad image. And not only in the West, but this perception is also very broad among the Russian population. They are believed to be mostly corrupted and slow in mind. But the worst image among Russia's interior forces, among with the street police, have the OMON. To place the fault entirely on Western exageration and propaganda, is in my opinion, very narrow minded. It is true - Russia's police and the OMON did a lot to reserve that bad reputation. Apart from seeing pics on the Runet, as a translator for a German TV channel I also have seen those OMON members for real. And it might be my subjective opinion, but they really do look like a bunch of crooks and haters (and don't have really smart faces)... That they beat up protesters (and that some even enjoy it) is true, I have seen it with my own eyes. A joke I have heard very often, is that the OMON administration chooses new rectruits on the basis who is the most violent, the most vile and... not very smart...(because the Kremlin thinks that they are more "loyal" and willing to perform "certain" deeds than than their more moral counrterparts). To me that seems very true. So the story of OMON members exploiting/extorting guest workers seems very possible to me.

@ count cash Well, I am glad you clarified that everyone... Yet another Russian mistake is somehow the West's fault..... Love it when people actually stand up to Russia, they immediately get labeled terrorist and of course they are backed by the west.... It is even more incredible to see the word "propaganda" being used in cases like this.... This is the type of communist propaganda was and still being used today.....but people are not buying it anymore......to include many Russians
