the death star

The article is a fairly long read. Not for those with the attention span of gnats. For those of you who can it's an interesting read. The author suggests, although not in so many words, that the American News Media does not have American interests at heart.
I call them the Enemedia, because they are. They are anti-american and take every opportunity to make the United States look bad.
He also suggests that the CIA is just a tiny bit less than competent.
Ya think?
What it all boils down to is that Russia's bark is a lot worse than it's bite...and always has been.
The last paragraph sums it up fairly well.
- Russia today is what it always was – a Potemkin village hiding a nation in a state of suspended collapse. The sole thing keeping it up is brutality toward the ordinary Russian and threats against the rest of the world. This works only because the West allows to work – doing favors for the vozhd of the moment for the sake of peace and quiet, throwing our hands up and wailing whenever he shakes a rubber doomsday machine in our direction, and consistently selling the Russian people short. That's the way it was during the communist epoch, and that's the way it is today.
