Long time no blog

Been busy with this page and research. well, where was I. Yes, civil liberties - all an illusion of course, but at least in the West we all pretend to play the game. And we get mad when someone doesn't. In Russia it just doesn't happen like that - and there are plenty of places that don't and we should all be rightly mad with them - but you know Russia was moving foreward (seemingly) and now, since the arrest of MBK everything has just been negated. One decision has placed the country right back where it was.

Rule of law is such an important and basic foundation to our country that we forget that some places have no such stability. And if you don't have that, as we see in this case, you really have nothing at all.
