Yaacov,

I wonder if that is what Russia requires, a bit of military dictatorship by someone like Lebed.

The guy certainly doesn't lack in criticism for the political hacks and oligarchs who currently control the Kremlin.

And I think in his interview his down to earth answer about his ability to bring democracy to Russia was very self-deprecating. I certainly didn't detect any of the political bluster and rhetoric you get from the politicos.

But I think he is right on in predicting that the Russian people are in a similar state to 1917 and when the country blows up, anything might happen.

Regards,

Ron
