Yevgeni Primakov, also known as the "desert fox" for his role in shaping Moscow's policies on the Middle East [just issued a stern warning to Iran that] Russia and China are about to run out of patience.
Predictably, Iran announced that
[its] planned meetings with Russia regarding the enrichment of Iranian uranium in Russia had been postponed.
With the world on the verge of WWIII, nothing like a few sour notes to push us that much closer to the edge.
So who is this guy, anyway?
[T]he former head of the KGB (the secret police of the former Soviet Union), Gen. Yevgeni Primakov, has been hired as a consultant by the Department of Homeland Security.

"When the National Identity Card Act gets passed, the Posse Comitatus Act gets overturned, a few other pieces of legislation yet to be proffered get passed, the White House will have more control over the American people than the Kremlin had over the Russian people when Stalin was alive. He said that and then he laughed.
What Primakov finds funny are what he calls these 'right wing flag wavers' who were so anti-communist and they're supporting a state policy of internal passports. The irony is deafening.
"Primakov continued by saying that he had been hired as a consultant and he was consulting on other 'security' matters, an ongoing policy in various agencies of government--some of these offices haven't even been created yet -- to consistently narrow the rights of the American people and to expand the power of government. He professed not to know what the reason for all this was, other than he admitted that 'it doesn't have much to do with fighting terrorism.'"
So there you have it folks. The neo-cons are tag-teaming with kamikaze commie. Only instead of sacrificing himself for the commie-connie cause, he's about to sacrifice
all of us.
