Well, spanalot, are you going to continue to support "Zavtra": From YOUR link: "The following “temnyk” – a directive from the Presidential Administration has just been made public by the newspaper “Zavtra”. " And what is "Zavtra": "From the onset of the current Middle East crisis, two hard-line nationalist newspapers with the largest circulation of all non-liberally-tinted media, Zavtra and Sovetskaya Rossiya (combined circulation of about 150,000 copies a week,) have been painting pictures of Israel▓s atrocities against peaceful Palestinian youths and women as if taken from the pages of Pravda of 30 years ago. A joint statement by two editors-in-chief, Alexander Prokhanov of Zavtra and Valeriy Chikin of Sovetskaya Rossia, published in both newspapers contained references to Yasir Arafat as the "proven leader of the Palestinians" who became victims of the "Biblical genocide" of Israel. The two editors went as far as to say that "Palestinians and Russians have the same strategic enemy - occupation, the same strategic goal - freedom and independence," implying that both Palestine and Russia suffer under "Zionist invaders. In an October 17 editorial in Zavtra, Alexander Prokhanov wrote: "Israel is doomed. [┘] Red- hot Intifada is the fiery river, in which another myth of the 20th century melts and sinks to the bottom ≈ the theory of Zionism. According to designs of Herzl and Zhabotinsky, a small geopolitical monstrosity was created on the Arab lands. They have dragged there their tablets, as the ants drag eggs. They have imposed on America and Germany the annual tribute of five billions dollars. They pour napalm on the mosques and transform the whole nations into homeless survivors and refugees. They brainwash the whole world by their black dandruff, which they call ▒the ashes of Auschwitz▓. On the place of Israel, the Arabs will plant many fig trees and Lebanese cedars, they will create a National park. It will be the home of the large pretty Hebrew-speaking parrot." Still want to hang your credibility on this rag?
