Yes I agree there is an issue. My assumption is that when you seek to understand the high-flyers and their motivations for having that or this opinion then neither ideology, culture, religion, domestic policy, foreign policy, habits, nor social acceptance is what counts. What counts is the money. Being anti-Russian is big business.
Therefore one has to make a concrete analysis of each network and publisher and examine their ties to the major corporations, and in turn their ties to the politicians. All earn on military aggressive policies. The networks earn ratings, the corporations earn contracts, and the politicians earn their existence. In other words: follow the money trail.

There is absolutely nothing concrete and substantial in that article. It is inconcrete, speculative and sidestepping the issue. |
yeah, but if anything that makes it even easier to agree with since it has less chance of conflicting with facts in such cases.

True. The underlying economic interest is ignored, which inevitably makes the analysis superficial and incomplete. But take into consideration that it is written by a person of the system, naively believing in a genuine virtue of the American foreign policy. Yet even such a person starts to feel something goes wrong and tries to analyze it, albeit under his/her limited conceptions.

Interesting excerpt from another publication:
http://www.frontpagemag.com/Article...le.asp?ID=16715
quote:
Ehrenfeld: I agree, the people of Ukraine have the right to determine their own future for better or worse. But these elections were anything but fair, and contributing to the fraud were large contributions from the West – according to thousands of “orange demonstrators” who were paid $150 per day (!) for weeks, to stage demonstrations...Thus, the Ukrainian people know first hand, that democracy can be bought. Is this the lesson the West wanted them to have? These elections left many Ukrainian confused. And rightly so. When mental hospitals are used to falsify election results, what can you expect?
I too, wish the Ukrainians democracy, freedom, and free market economy. However, I think that the way the regime change was enforced, will make their goal more difficult to achieve.
