Putin's Wet Dream

Belorus is essentially the Soviet Union in miniature form. The regime is (via Instapundit) stomping down the protests over the farcical elections in a brutal fashion. Moscow loves the regime and wishes it could recreate what Minsk has. The European Union and America are working to end the regime by promoting free elections.

I hope people power can win this, but the regime's enforcers have shown no hesitation beating even women who are peacefully protesting.

And Lord knows I approve of virtually anything that Putin doesn't like at this point.
