Marv's assessment seems accurate. I mentioned in a facebook post (hopefully not yet here, sorry if dup) that Nemtsov was surely murdered for his role in today's antiwar protest - a protest organized by former oligarch Khodorovsky. From the wikis of both they seem to be for closer ties to Western capital. Be that as it may, genuine antiwar, anti-imperialist forces must characterize this assassination openly as the horrendous crime it is.
