The author is wielding this argument as one would a crowbar striving to convince the reader of the absurdity of “nightmarish visions” of Russia’s leadership of a threat of a break-up of the country.
Novodvorskaya as a woman of other than Chechen descent would have probably been happier had she lived in Gudermes in, say, 1994, shortly before the first Chechen war, or in 1999, on the eve of its Phase 2.
Those who together with Novodvorskaya gloat watching unskilled attempts of the authorities take the situation under control, remind one of the Russian “thinkers” of the early 20th century who went out of their way to shake the pillar of autocracy, and after its fall were running for their lives to every corner of the world.

 Valeria Novodvorskaya: "Such Methods Possible Only In State Ruled By Tyrant" :: Charter'97 :: News :: 13/12/2004
Leader of the Russian party Democratic Union Valeria Novodvorskaya, who was born in the Belarusian town of Baranavichy, and, as said by her, always keeps track of the events in motherland with interest, considers the situation with human rights in Belarus catastrophic.
Commenting on the situation in Belarus, Valeria Novodvorskaya always adverts to the most obscure times in the history of the Soviet Union, the 30ies of the 20th century.
Ms Novodvorskaya said that the Belarusian authorities are treating unceremoniously not only their citizens.

 DEMOCRACY ON THE BRINK: Dissent / Russia back on track to absolute rule / Democracy activists again out in the cold
Valeria Novodvorskaya, 54, the sharp-tongued leader of the libertarian Democratic Union movement whom Russia's liberals call the "grandmother of the Russian democracy," agrees.
Many Kremlin critics blame Putin for turning Russian democrats into an endangered political species, but Novodvorskaya said some of the blame for the swing back to authoritarianism must be laid at the feet of the democrats themselves for failing to agree on which course post-Soviet Russia should take.
Novodvorskaya advocates the "true brand of American-style democracy," but this firebrand who used to boast about her many detentions by the Soviet security police for masterminding anti-Soviet protests has become politically idle in the past few years.

DVR held a congress on June 13 at which Democratic Union leader Valeria Novodvorskaya surprised delegates by declaring that Yeltsin should run for a third term in office and clear the way for Gaidar or Chubais to run in 2004.
Novodvorskaya created a further sensation by labeling Mayor Yuri Luzhkov "an outright nationalist and a Nazi." Her remarks were remarkable less for what they said about Luzhkov than for what they seemed to reveal about the direction of the upcoming election campaign.
Novodvorskaya's warning and Izvestia's campaign suggest, however, that the liberal wing of the political spectrum may be planning to paint such leading opposition candidates Aleksandr Lebed and Yuri Luzhkov as fascists and nationalist extremists in the upcoming elections.

Novodvorskaya didn’t use to join the general chorus, on the contrary, she castigated both the Soviet regime and its daughter – the Elite – not only from the point of view of economic liberalism.
Unfortunately, Novodvorskaya seems to have forgotten that not so long ago Russia was a country of serfdom and it was only the revolutionary events of 1905 that forced the authorities to think of turning the peasants into real independent owners and the autocracy into something like the constitutional monarchies in the West.
Novodvorskaya actually negates the traditions of Christianity and the principles of “sacred Russian literature” for the sake of asserting a crude version of Protestant ethics in its vulgar interpretation.

 Country is back on track toward authoritarian rule / Democracy activists again out in the cold
Many Kremlin critics blame Putin for banishing pro-democratic forces from politics, but Novodvorskaya said some of the fault for Russia's swing toward authoritarianism must be laid at the feet of the country's democratic leaders, who failed to agree among themselves on which course post-Soviet Russia should take.
Some did not approve of Chechnya's struggle for independence and supported the war," she said, referring to the 10-year war the Kremlin is waging to rein in Islamist separatists in Russia's southern republic.
But the main responsibility for Russia's failing flirt with democracy, Novodvorskaya said, lies with the Russian people, who expected "to get to prosperity for free, without any effort on their part."

One (unfortunately, I can’t remember his surname) was a former KGB officer and current a Duma depuy, while the other, uncompromising anti-Soviet crusader Valeria Novodvorskaya, once spent time in KGB prisons.
The only thing that united these two very different people and made them stand apart from the younger audience was that both of them grew up in the Soviet period, when this kind of propaganda would have been impossible and unthinkable at an official level.
