40 Years In The Desert: And Europe Goes Even More Pear Shaped

And Europe Goes Even More Pear Shaped

In both Bulgaria and Moldova have elected pro-Russian Presidents.

In the case of Bulgaria, this has brought down the current Prime Minister, and as Bulgaria is an EU member, (and has a pro Russian history) it makes the extension of sanctions against Russia that much less likely.

Victoria Nuland's gift in the Ukraine just keeps on giving.

Stephen Montsaroff said...: I thought you liked pro-Russian politicians.

Mind these are Presidents of Parliamentary Democracies.; 15 November, 2016 14:01
Matthew Saroff said...: I think that Putin is generally on the right side of the conflicts, and that the EU in general, and Germany in particular, is wrong about everything.

The fact that the Europe, particularly the EU is going pear shaped I see as a good thing, as it upsets the current, highly corrupt order, but it involves going pear shaped.; 15 November, 2016 21:02

What is 40 Years in the Desert?

This blog is a place to put my stream of consciousness thoughts about life, politics, technology, and cats.

It's a posting ground for my more-or-less annual personal newsletter, 40 Years in the Desert.(PDF's available at link)

I find that if I wait until year's end I miss stuff from earlier in the year.

40 Years is put out the old fashioned way, it's printed out on ledger sized paper with 4 pages and mailed to people, total circulation of about 100.

I'm just not the holiday card kind of guy. A warning, if you comment here, I may use it in my paper publication.

You will get credit, and if I can get your postal adress, you will get at least the issue where you are quoted (probably a lot more, I rarely trim my list).

If someone actually wants to pay for an issue...I don't know, I guess a buck, but you can get the PDF's free.

I intend to post at least a couple of times a week,
