Vladimir Putin is on the verge of conquering and enslaving you. Your
nation is under attack by the full might of Russia's petro-fascism, and
what's worse, the game is just about up. We're in Saigon, 1975, and we
don't have any room for retreat when the barbarians come crashing
through the gates.
The fact that you are unaware of your impending doom is, according to
Lucas, the scariest thing of all, part of Putin's brilliantly evil
stealth strategy -- part Sun Tzu, part Wermacht. But there's hope: if
you buy Edward Lucas' new book, The New Cold War: How the Kremlin
Menaces Both Russia and the West, you might be able to snatch victory
from the jaws of defeat. The promo for the book makes no bones about it:
if you read it, you'll discover "Why we are perilously close to defeat
-- and how we can still win."...

Lucas, apart from being really sick of Russophobia or maybe because of
it is really stupid. - Does he really hope that his home kitchen brew of
"petrofascism" will find a niche in already crowded market place? That
owners of "Islamofascism" and "Sovereign Funds" brands are going to give
room for some tabloid schmuck and compromise an enormous effort already
put in making the brands to roll?
Well, who knows, - maybe he is not that ambitious and get satisfied if
his missive just sit on a book store shelf next to "Russian Roswell".
Dust collector.
