From the latter site, a disclaimer:

(Editor Note: This article expresses a view little heard in Western circles, that with a few exceptions, Putin is a front for Jewish oligarchs, and is Jewish himself.
I cannot confirm these claims but present them for discussion. Clearly, Putin has none nothing significant to thwart veiled NATO aggression in Libya and Syria.)
