Have you actually looked at those links? Here is what they claim he said (from your compromat.ru link, i haven't looked at the other two) -- I picked the paragraphs that I thought you were talking about and those that looked the most aggressive, but tell me if I missed anything.Originally Posted by Basil77

He says that he thinks that Putin's regime is not democratic and a change in regime, even by force, would be a nice thing -- I agree (at least on the first part of the statement). But this is just an opinion.
He claims to work to discredit the regime through legal means -- PR perhaps -- I don't see anything wrong with that either; certainly it is not a crime anywhere in a civilized world to campaign against a government. I much doubt his ability to actually do much, but that is another matter.
You may say that he does other, illegal, things that he is not talking about -- could be, I have no idea -- but this speech offers no evidence for that.
In fact, what troubles me most about Russia is that there are people there who would consider such statements as criminal.
