		In Putin's Chechen war the TV tower in Grozny was recently a Russian target and so were the Baltic TV towers during the events that finally lead to the collapse of Communism.
		In Tallin the armed forces stormed the TV tower and advanced slowly towards the top floor where Estonian TV personnel were barricaded with weapons and food for several days, devoted to defending their TV.
		These memories, of Polish struggles for truth and history, of radio rallying Baltic citizens to protect their national voices, of TV towers as symbols and catalysts of revolution — this is what the Ostankino TV tower burning meant to me. Not Putin's primitive metaphor for economic decay.
