Honest interview with someone who obviously understands Afghanistan and Russia. Obviously, this was a brighter interview from your reporter. Good pick. Not one of those daily Gotta pieces from RT's street crew with Alyona's show If the Russians wanted to send spies to work at the agency they should have gotten them green cards, or sent them across the Mexican border as illegals, then have them elected to congress. Where there are more fifth columns imbeded in the democrat party than were in Franco's Spain. Does Russia even watch the US news? This interview is dead on with the way this was handled for press purposes and should have been a closed door deal, as the congressman states.

The neocons are at this! Well, this way of thinking about Russians in America spells troubles for Russians in America. Now, it seems to be a Russian in the U.S will come to feel like a Muslim in the U.S. This is the real impact of socalled Spy cases. The exchange is very bad idea because the Russians are giving valuable spy agents for people who have not been charged with spy crimes. Russia is paying for not going all the way with the U.S/Israel military strike plans against Iran. "The Spying Russians" with the "deep cover" in the U.S was a deliberate PR case against Russia but the Russians did not have a counter response to it. Now, we are talking about exchanging fake spies with real spies. Things are getting worse and worse for Russia!

The truth is America's Military Industrial Complex had an apoplexy when Russia broke up the USSR. With the bogey man gone, what's going to our business. Ah ha! Iraq. Its a defensless country with lots of oil. Let's pull an "operation northwood.com". We almost did against Castro. We'll call this 9/11 and have "reason" against Saddam. We'll get our propaganda machine to stimulate people and guide them through the proper response, just like Pavlov's dogs. Works every time. Don't read "War is a Racket" by Major General Smedley Butler USMC. He won the Congessional Medal of Honor twice. He's dead now but prophecied what going. Bring it up on the internet.
