    The Axis of Evil is a myth - those countries are only "evil" towards their own citizens, if at all. But there might possibly be an Empire of Evil which thinks nothing of manipulation & deception, starting wars and placing nukes at its' bases across the world, supporting ruthless dictators etc, etc. Just as long as its corporations can continue to rake in the money, and its citizens can eat burgers and drive gas monster cars everywhere they go....

    And another comment: I am beginning to think Russia should have another revolution: Against corruption. At least during the Soviet era, the profit from corruption stayed in the country... At the moment it is very obviously spent on Bond Street, on London property, in Dubai, or sitting at Swiss bank accounts.... While honest Russian pensioners can hardly afford to buy decent food -- despite having worked all their lives to build up the country and fought in the war too... A very tragic and ironic situation, I think!

    And about my country being democratic
    : Yes; we've been "lucky" and are traditionally hard working and well organised. But the political correctness has exceeded all reasonable limits now and if it continues like that; our whole area will go to the dogs.

    BUT: I am going back anyway though.. Can't stand London anymore. In April I am OUT of here --- hurrah, at last! And I am taking a big detour East before I go back to Sweden.. More about that in my MR blog that I am about to start.

    You must be awfully tired of the smog and "pavement" and "Good morning!".

    In any other case I would say: "Oh no! Don't do that! Don't move anywhere! Stick to London!". But now that you have a much better place to go, lemme say:

    Good-luck with a new life in your own country!
    "If in the end, Misha, you are destined to lose this game, there is no need for the reason to be cowardice!"
