comments: SURPRISINGLY little comment in the
British media, and no word at all in
The Jewish Chronicle, about this
unspectacular setback to the attempt by
the Jewish mafia to seize control of the
media in the post-Soviet Russia. Or
perhaps the silence is not so surprising
after all. For a while, it is true, there was
outrage as the outstanding and upright
Russian President Vladimir Putin
ruthlessly smacked down the efforts of
this mafia to seize control of the oil and
petroleum industries and of the TV and
printed media. When the principal villains were
arrested, there were the usual global
bleats, particularly from their cronies in
the United States, about "anti-Semitism";
the cries were silenced when several of
those under indictment fled to a certain
sh*tty little country in the Middle East
to escape further "persecution". In the world of Ariel
Sharon and the Neo-Cons this
parrot-cry no longer conjures up the magic
that it did in the immediate post-World
War Two era, because it takes a blind eye
indeed not to be humanly outraged at
events in the Middle East. Normal people are
finding themselves increasingly ranged
along side the "anti-Semites", and their
enemies will have to find a new smear to
fling about before long. Related

fraud suspect will evade extradition London -- Russian tycoon
Boris Berezovsky, wanted at home [i.e.
in
Russia] involving fraud,
cannot be extradited now that he has been granted
political assylum in Britain, a judge ruled
Friday. Judge Timothy Workman, presiding at Bow
Street Magistrates Court, said it was pointless to
proceed with the case since Home Secretary David
Blunkett decided last week to grant Berezovsky
asylum. British police arrested Berezovsky in March on
Russian charges that he and an associate defrauded
a regional government of $13 million in the
mid-1990s by stealing cars from Russia's largest
automaker, AvtoVaz. -
