Time to Review the Russian Threat

Russia’s Reach – Far more than espionage!
The temptation to suggest ‘Russia is at it again’ with the recent arrests of several operatives in Massachusetts and elsewhere in the US, working under orders from Moscow, ignores the reality that Russia never stopped being…Russia! The end of the cold war was not the end of the cold warrior. She merely adapted. And some could argue, as I have, Russia is far more dangerous today than in the 1980’s. Back then she was oafish and clumsy – a bull if not bully in a crystal shop. Today she is charismatic, has packaged herself as a global honest broker – a force for reason that counters the influence of the US, especially as friend to developing nations, and much smarter in global affairs. Her leader – Putin is savvy, ruthless, and far more capable as a head of state than most of his counterparts world-wide. His protégé Medvedev (Putin-Lite) is more than an able extension of Putin.

The neanderthals in Oakland are now officially rioting. Foot Locker is being looted, journalist punches, bottles thrown, large crowd gathering and marching....has been declared an “unlawful assembly”. Who knew?
