It's interesting to compare the styles and capabilities of Maria Zaharova to Sarha Huckabee Sanders, the White House spokesperson. There is a massive, striking, difference. One is obviosly outstanding and a master of her brief, highly articulate, intelligent and well-prepared. The other almost an amateur, completely out of her depth, continually balancing in the edge of disaster and defending policies that make no real sense, even on their own terms. The editors at the Guardian and the BBC, who are the real powers, know this and are determined not to allow their readers to reach the same conclusion. It's strange. Today, western disenters find a home on a Russian supported news platform. The Russians run rings around their western counterparts and appear sophisticated, smart and in touch with reality, whils we in the west are stuck in the mud and appear slow-witted and clumsy, dragged down by dangerous dogmatism and escapism, fleeing from the harsh realities of rapidly changing world. It's like everything has been reversed compare to the last Cold War. And this, fundamentally, is what the Guardian is so afraid of.
