[Peace-discuss] Fwd: [ufpj-activist] Very interesting analysis of US-Russia relationship

[Carl G. Estabrook]

And here is an almost too leg-pulling account of Obama’s Russian policy:

['To "pull one's leg", as a saying, ... dates back to the mid-1800s in England, and refers to physically tripping up another person, which puts him off balance, possibly makes him collide with others in awkward ways, and generally makes him look foolish. It quickly evolved to mean achieving that result - making a person look foolish - regardless of the specific means used. The most popular means to do so is to tell a deliberate plausible non-truth which, if believed, would lead the person react foolishly.’]
