Gorbachev As a Reincarnated Pontius Pilate

On January 7, 1991, I was discussing current issues with Valery Ivanovich Boldin, Chief of Staff of the USSR President, when a red bulb lit up at his desk signaling a phone call from Mikhail Gorbachev.

Maybe it’s a Good Thing

Maybe it’s a good thing that the Maidan epic in Georgia — senseless and merciless — has dragged on for so long. Let the organizers use everything. Absolutely everything. They will show themselves from all sides. They burned Christian symbols. They ruined the children’s holiday of lighting the main New Year’s tree in Tbilisi. Now […]

Exodus from Syria

In the morning, a call from a Syrian friend: that’s it, Damascus has fallen. What Marat warned about has happened. They didn’t listen. Now wait for them to come to you. Not as guests — as hosts. The worst thing is the inability to help. The inability to do anything. I turned on the Internet. […]

“Deplorables” in the US

And ‘split” does not even cover the extend of it. Broken up, with one part canceling another. How dare they support Russia? How dare they speak the […]

A Missile Precedent Has Been Created with Major Consequences

Israel has struck ballistic missile production sites in Iran. Israel’s key allies — the US, Britain, Germany, France — have recognized this step as legitimate and adequate. Thus, an important geopolitical precedent has been de facto established. Missiles aimed at Israel can take off from the Gaza Strip, from Yemen, Lebanon or Syria. People in […]

The text of the Treaty on Comprehensive Strategic Partnership between the Russian Federation and the DPRK contains Article 4 (for which, probably, everything was organized): “If one of the Parties is subjected to an armed attack by any state or several states and thus finds itself in a state of war, the other Party will […]

Romance at the Tip of the Pencil

Animated Short Film “THOUGHT OF YOU” is a delightful graphic novel with images that look like they’ve stepped out of the pages of an artist’s album and came to life. A great way to show the experience and dreams of each character is simply through a pencil drawing that comes to life without distracting details. […]
