Dear friends,I am exhausted. Badly. Had to spend many hours on the road this week-end so here is my schedule:Today I will, insha’allah, answer the most (all?) the emails I have to answer.

The recent elections and gas deal – survey: who won who lost? & upcoming podcast
Dear friends,Since I am going to be very busy until Monday morning, I want to leave you with a “semi-open thread”. If you see something interesting, by all means please post it here.

Various small notes + Open Thread
Dear friends,As you can see, the new blog is still down. I was told by my IT specialist that it will be back up tonight. As soon as I know something I will let you know too. Guys, Hebrew is not the second language in the Ukraine. Rate your sources, okay? (FYI – What is true is that the junta wants to make English the second language).Gubarev was shot at.

Confession and open thread
Dear friends, I am exhausted. Totally. Wiped out. And this has shown in the past couple of days when I failed to police comments which never should have made it to begin with. I hope to be able to address what I see as The Key Issue (all in caps!) by Thursday morning/early afternoon: will the US/NATO attempt to attack Russian and/or Novorussia and, if yes, how? But tomorrow I
Short news items & open thread
A couple of quick things:1) The so-called “interview” with Alexander Khodakovskii (not Mikhail Khodorkovskii) is a fake made by Reuters in which different parts of the real interview were re-mixed together in order to make it sound as if Khodakovskii was saying that the Resistance had a BukM1. Video and audio proof of that fact that this was a fake was shown on Russian TV today.2) The “new, democratic and
Preliminary but very good news and open thread

OPEN THREAD (June 11-14)
Well, here is the promised open thread. In homage to the heroes in Novorossia who are fighting the Nazi death squads every day, here is a music video about prevailing against terrible odds and a famous monologue from the movie “Brat 2”: Вот скажи мне американец, в чём сила! Разве в деньгах? Вот и брат говорит, что в деньгах. У тебя много денег, и чего? Я вот думаю, что сила
