You taught me one thing since I have been on this board. That is to look at the difference between good terrorists and bad terrorists.

BTW, I see that you resent the term Russian Mafya(sp?). I can understand this because of the inherent dishonesty of the term but, because the censors will not allow a more definitive term, would you recommend something more appropriate? Is organizatsiya okay? Help me out here. We need a more honest discussion on FR.

As long as people know who are the members of the so-called "Russian Mafia", I have no problem with that term. However, it's grossly unfair to point to Russians when in fact that "Russian Mafia" mostly consists of Jewish emigres from Odessa, Ukraine.
