Paradigm Shift at Pravda: "The Truth" Praises Bush

Now, okay, that headline overstates the case. This opinion piece runs in Pravda, but it seems to be written by an American whose work is syndicated. So it is just a case of Pravda running a syndicated piece it finds interesting, and can't be taken to represent the editorial position of that red rag.

This piece ran quite a while ago: on January 26th, after Bush's Inaugural Address. It's not really current, and it can't be called part of post-30-January the "paradigm shift." Still-- let's say it prefigures the paradigm shift.

But it is very interesting that Pravda seems at least as willing, if not more so, to expressly praise Bush in an op-ed than, say, the New York Times. The New York Times seems to only run conservative-leaning guest op-ed writers when they're attacking Republicans. (Yeah, yeah, David Brooks, William Safire... but they're both tokens, you know.)

And of course Pravda ran this before the votes in Iraq and Palestine and the Orange and Cedar Revolutions. The New York Times refused to admit even the possibility of freedom working until the facts on the ground began to embarass them.

Some key bits:

In his speech the President put world leaders on notice: Either protect your people and provide them with democratic freedom and basic human rights or be prepared to answer to the United States. This notice applies to all countries, even our oil producing allies like Saudi Arabia. Oil is not an excuse for tyranny.
As predicted, liberals and Bush haters began accusing President Bush of being reckless and abusing his power, instead of giving him the credit and praise he deserves. Just once I would like to see liberals help the President in a noble cause, but I guess this will never happen. Liberals would rather try to make Bush look bad rather than help the oppressed, even though they claim to be the defenders of human rights.

I think liberals are afraid of taking an aggressive stand on world problems. They are more comfortable with Bill Clinton"s foreign policy of letting thugs drag dead Americans through the streets of Somalia than a foreign policy of strength. A plan for peace is outside their realm of thinking, unless appeasement and surrender is involved. They just cannot imagine winning a lasting peace by taking the fight to the enemy. No wonder John Kerry was loved by the French.

Thanks to RCL for the tip, and noting that the former communist house organ Pravda seemed, in this case, more amenable to the idea of the forward strategy of freedom than the American New York Times.

Wow - very cool find!!! Thanks to RCL and Ace for this one .. How very strange. I think I have to re-read your comments Ace, and the clip to try and get my head around this one. Why ever would they print that? other than blatant Bush support?

I like a little bit of the bizarre with my morning coffee!

Back for another read ...

... oh yeah, as for the comparison to the New York Times ... NYT's bias is old hat, well, for me anyhow! It is bizarre though that, these days, I'd likely be happier reading Pravda and using the NYT as Charmin rather than the other way around ...

Compare the Bush inaugural to JFK's in 1960. See Who Said That?

What is the UK Regime's plan for protecting the citizens from the savage criminals they've foisted on the populace? They offer NONE. They do, however, have a plan for protecting the savage criminals from the citizens: The citizens must STAY CALM and not get angry and not share videos of citizens being attacked by savage criminals. The public keeps saying "protect us from the foreign savages you have imported against our wishes and over our objections" and the UK branch of The Regime keeps proposing plans to protect the foreign savages from the public. Soclose to what the public is demanding, just, you know, the complete opposite. Just a thought: Maybe you wouldn't have to worry about the public attacking the savage criminals if you actually introduced a plan to protect the public from the savage criminals. Maybe they wouldn't feel as if it was necessary for them to protect the public through self-help.
