“The Other Mr. President”

From This American Life, a compilation of old and new stories about Vladimir Putin: “The Other Mr. President.” I remember the one about the bombings of apartment buildings in 1999, which Putin (then prime minister) blamed on Chechen rebels. He invaded Chechnya, won, and was elected president. Long story short: he seems to be an old hand at false-flag operations.
