Synopsis

An epitaph, expose, and personal journey revealing the truth about dissident former KGB and FSB agent Alexander Litvinenko's assassination in London in November of 2006. The crime that shocked the world is only one of the current Putin regime's unconscionable acts of terror, treason, and murder carried out by Russia's dreaded post-communism KGB--the FSB. Putin and the FSB's abuses represent the most recent version of an unceasing effort by Russia's ruling privileged elite to consolidate wealth and power that has transcended political ideology and victimized a nation since the time of the Tsars.
