Yaacov, You know, I used to love reading Russian history. I think what I find most disturbing is how a nation that was once the seat of working class priciples is now just a lap-dog for NATO. These Russians now beg for aid money like a mongrel in the streets of Pristina. How is it that they have fallen that far? How is it that a nation that could have given a place in history to the ideals of Marx, and the leadership to a working class hero such as Vladimir Lenin, could fall to the point that they grovel at the feet of IMF bankers? I find this quite a puzzle. I guess it just proves that money and treachery can overcome poverty and principle every time. -John
