The Anna Politkovskaya Hit Two Theories June 12, 2010 by Edward Jay Epstein

Theories that have been advanced  in this case include: 1.The Putin Theory.  President Putin's inner sanctum allowed a contract to be put out on Politkovskaya (as well as other journalists) to intimidate the press. 2. The Chechen Theory.  The Russian-backed regime in Chechnya put out a contract on Politkovskaya to silence her reporting of their illegal activities.                                                                                                                                   if you have any comments please reply below: your email:
