"Moscow efforts led to the collapse of Ukraine's coalition government"? Get real, guys! These "strange bedfellows" are perfectly capable to break up all on their own, which they did and not just this once. You don't like Russians buying Ukrainian plants, ports, investing in agro-business industry? Well, why didn't YOU do that? Don't have enough money? Not interested? Afraid to get close to not so stable Ukrainian business? Pity, but that's the way it is now. According to this article the best way for Ukraine would be to not engage in any form of communication with evil Russia - no trade, no culture, no nothing. Have you looked at the map recently? Was it ever possible to not trade with your closest (geograficaly and hystoricaly) neighbor, even if all your screams about evil barbaric bears on the east were true? Oh, well, who do I talk to? In short - absolutly dumb and disgusting article

You'd never know it from Rachel Ehrenfeld, but Putin is the worst nightmare of the true 'oligarchs', most of whom are Russian Jews, many with Israeli citizenship. It would be very interesting to see where Ehrenfeld's organization, the 'American Center for Democracy' gets its real funding. Sure sounds like a true blue neocon group to me.

Leonid MININ is not serving any sentence in ITALY he was arrested in MILAN indicted but released to go due to a Judicial limitation - his crimes were not made in away that brings him, under Italian jurisdiction. He is listed in UN Security Council Bad People list but... most probably enjoys life in Israel (of which he is a citizen for several years) Why is he not arrested? Delivered to the Hague Courts ? Look at recent acts of the EU highest judicial courts in respect of other occupants of the said UN list who are Dutch Moslems, Swedish court ruling in case of suspected Terror Finacer via Charity (SOMALIANS) MS. Ehrenfeld does not read any "open information" after she wrote her book - but in general she is right about the Odessa Mafia and its contribution to world peace and sound economy and trade.

Question of the day

White House officials and Senate Democrats met in private three times last week to craft health care legislation. Do you think these discussions should be more public?
