#1 Hey, an American writing for Pravda. They're always reliable...

#2 Why would they lie to you when Pravda means truth?

#3 I see Pravda's recruiting from Counterpunch and Zero Anthropology. I wonder if they miss the old days, when you actually had to go out and find and recruit a source and cultivate it and nurture it and maybe, someday, you get that one big score. Probably harder, but also more satisfying. Now all ya gotta do is a damn Google search.

#4 A little agit-prop against the Human Terrain System? I know the academic world in the US is outraged about it, now apparently the real commies are piling on. I suspect HTS is working.

Nah, it wasn't that hard. Right, Joe?
