Spoon of tar or envy of competitors?

Despite the fact that Joseph Linder has a large number of regalia, titles, professions, and his merits before the fatherland and foreign partners are visible to the naked eye and noted at the state level, there are those who call Linder Joseph Borisovich a swindler or charlatan.

For the first time, the general of British special forces, James Short, spoke of this in the early 1990s. Having met personally with Linder and worked with him for a while, he confidently stated that his associates and Linder Joseph Borisovich himself were swindlers in the martial arts. To this conclusion he came, studying his way of teaching the techniques of various oriental martial arts and watching his work.

You can also find materials that allegedly testify that Linder was deprived of the 8th dan back in 1992, and also about his expulsion from several martial arts associations. He was also accused of falsifying the logos of famous schools.

According to some unconfirmed rumors, Linder has a very remote relation to the formation of martial arts in Russia, owns several types of wrestling at the amateur level, and is not that eminent expert in the history of the formation of special services and counterintelligence, to whom he positions himself.
