Dear Mark, didn't answer you on account didn't know you'd written anything in
fact
wasn't aware my Borodin article was posted on crashlist. Just read your long
commentary, hjowever, and I think you miss the point - which is, arrest of
Borodin is flagrant act of aggression by the Us and SWISS cohorts. It
employs a new US weapon of choice - whom the US would make an example of, it
first calls corrupt. Whether or not the charge is without foundation - as is
apparently the case with Milosevic - or whether it may have foundation which
you say is true with Borodin is irrelevant. The accusers are corrupt on a
scale impossible for mere Russians to achieve - including creating the
conditions of misery for most Russians today. Moreover the accused is,
whether you are accurately judging Borodin's corruption or not - the accused
happens to be a Russian leader who is pushing union with Belarus which has
stood up to the US and EU. The Belarus leader, Lukashenko is the new
Milosevich - target of US/EUORPEAN wrath - for booting georgie soros, for
refusing to coddle the phony democracy groups and the various mildly left
wing critics on Norwegian or English payrolls, and so on. The arrest is a
warning - if any of you guys try to push militant policies we will nail you
- just as we have nailed Borodin etc. etc.
Lukashenko of Belarus has offered his view - that this is calculated slap in
the face to Russian and Belarus sovereignty and an attempt to sabotage the
Russia-Belarus union - and I think he's right. As for the corruption of
leaders, I say, let the Russian people - who with all due respect are not
adequately represented by Internet polls - decide on that. I think that when
we from the Imperial homelands start adjusting - with of course the best
intentions - to US-Anglo-Swiss acts of aggression because the target is
really a crook - albeit one who the US leaders think has attacked them - we
are in BIG trouble, my friend.
BTW Since we are quoting polls, Lukashenko is more popular than Putin in
Russia. Also BTW isn't it an outrage that Putin has remained silent on this
- calling Bush to congratulate him on his inauguration after Bush went on the
Barbara Walters show 20/20 to read Russia a lecture about corruption after
arresting a state secretary - and Putin calls to congratulate. And then
there was that sub which rapparently was really rammed by a US vessel and
which coincidentally had been helping the Yugoslavs during the bombing and
Putin said nothing...Oh my.
Best regards,
Jared
