- US paranoia seen in new Red Dawn
The 1984 cult hit Red Dawn, which portrayed a Soviet invasion of the United States, is being remade with China as the aggressor. Playing on American fears over economic and military weakness in the aftermath of a crisis, the plot and backdrop are similar. However, this time the movie apparently tries to represent China as the solution to some of the most acute problems in American cities. - Benjamin A Shobert (Jan 7, '10) 1984年のカルト、中国を侵略者としてリメイクされているレッドドーンは、アメリカ合衆国の旧ソ連の侵攻描かだった
- Abkhazia has been fooled by Russia | Giorgi Badridze
The Abkhaz now have a choice: be an outpost of the Russian empire or work together with a European GeorgiaAnna Matveeva is right to remind us that Abkhazia was once the favoured holiday destination of the Soviet elite. But she omits to mention it is also the homeland of thousands of ethnic Georgians who were expelled from their properties in a brutal ethnic cleansing exercise implemented by the Russian-supported separatists. Their homes now lie in ruins, as they live in temporary housing in Georgia dreaming of the day they will return.The sad truth, as Matveeva hinted at in her article, is that the Abkhaz people were fooled by Russia. The Kremlin stirred up paranoia over Georgian intentions, armed separatist fighters and deployed troops before the invasion of 2008 under the guise of security. But the Russian objective was not to help the Abkhaz gain independence or to hand them the lands of ethnic Georgians, it was to subsume the territory into the greater Russia and to destabilise the government of Georgia, so that Georgian ambitions to join the Euroatlantic community were snuffed out.The reality is now dawning on the Abkhaz: instead of independence they have got Russian annexation. Thousands of Russian soldiers and workers have moved in, and they are not likely to be heading back anytime soon, if ever.The rivers and coastlines of Abkhazia are being pillaged to provide construction materials for the Sochi Olympics, threatening environmental disaster in the years to come. Russian companies, such as Rosneft, are scouring the land searching for assets to exploit. The Abkhaz have become puppets, and we all know who is pulling the strings.I am the first to admit that Georgia has not got everything right in relations with our Abkhaz compatriots. We should have been more unde アブハーズは選択肢があります：ロシア帝国の前哨されるか、一緒にヨーロッパGeorgiaAnnaマトベーエワで動作する私たちがアブハジア自治共和国はかつてソ連のエリート待。休日の行先した思い出させる権利である
