it really is rather shocking and disturbing that the Observer/Guardian can publish, without blushing, what amounts to NAZI racist propaganda about the innate character and culture of the Russians, so blithely. How does a decent, educated person working there not raise their voice in protest at this. The Guardian embracing NAZI ideology? I suppose one's career would be over, but that's all the more reason to speak out in time. Arguably, anyone who would speak out has already been purged and the vetting process for new appointees is thorough.
