>>Truthfully, who ever thought the day would come when conservatives agree with Pravda?

Pravda’s “gift” isn’t their lies and certainly not that their truth... but the way they mix in truth with fiction and blur the lines.

Consider these two stories

“America’s next catastrophe is brewing just south of its borders”

>>The drug war violence has spun out of control so quickly that it is now a civil war and unlike the small time civil war with Mexico’s southern Indians the Zapatistas, this one has the potential to topple the state government in very short order. The American Department of Defense has come out with an estimate that the two largest mafia cartels field, between them, over 100,000 foot soldiers. Now, these are not just gang bangers and lowlifes, alright they are lowlifes, but many are former Mexican army and some even US trained special forces. To make maters worse, they are armed with heavy weapons, everything short of tanks and fighter planes. Regular large scale gun battles, involving grenades and RPGs are a common, almost daily occurrence in Mexico.<<

>>The USA will set forth a concept to reform NATO during the upcoming summit of the alliance. In accordance with the concept, the alliance will be expanded with the help of the countries of not only the Euro-Atlantic region, but of Asia too, for instance, Australia, Japan and South Korea. The renewed alliance may even replace the United Nations, The Kommersant newspaper wrote.

Ivo Daalder, one of the most renowned US experts on the alliance, was appointed the new US Ambassador to NATO Thursday. Daalder is an old-time champion of the revolutionary idea to create a league of democracies. The concept was originally suggested by Senator John McCain. The theory stipulates the creation of a new international organization that will virtually replace the United Nations. <<

When it becomes hard to tell where the truth ends replaced with a mixture of fiction and editorial spin they are doing their job. Not unlike certain American papers.
