Excerpts of a memoir written by late Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny revealed he believed he would die in prison.
The New Yorker magazine published the excerpts Friday in anticipation of the release of “Patriot” on Oct. 22.
Navalny was President Vladimir Putin’s fiercest and most prominent foe and relentlessly campaigned against official corruption in Russia. He died in a remote Arctic prison in February while serving a 19-year sentence on several charges, including running an extremist group, which he said were politically motivated.
His sacrifice of his life means that his ideology and fight will live on in others who follow his footsteps.
How do you think Jesus became so well known?
Jesus was forced down everyone’s throat regardless of what you believe; so I fail to see the comparison.
There has to have been a better way; Russia is already too lousy w needless & pointless deaths.
2000 years ago he died for our sins on a cross. Why didn’t his story die with him? Because his death made him a martyr, and martyrs live forever.
The same will happen with Navalny and his ideology.
Except Jesus wasn’t real. Navalny was.
The story still stands. If it didn’t you wouldn’t even recognize Jesus’ name.
Oh… Oh no. Honey…
