Jamie, you are wrong. You are capable enough that this won't end your career--but this one surely should not go in your resume.

Golytsin is as reliable as a Yugo. His conspiracy fantasies have done enough damage already. Please, please! think this one through. There are easier explanations for our present situation. Russia's leadership is making things as it goes along, not following a masterful deception from half a century ago. There is no need to invoke conspiracy when simple human frailty will do.

Disappointedly yours;

Sadly, you are probably right.

"Freeing the 15-year-old girl is what really got me in trouble..."

The man in the story reminds me of members of the KGB who eventually could not take it anymore. Hope his moral courage doesn't falter.

Oh, the nerve.

The nerve of calling repression of Muslims in China genocide, while denying the real, honest-to-god genocide of the Armenians.

It's hypocrisy on such a level it's hard to imagine. You'd think a Turkish Prime Minister would have the half decency to avoid the word.

The ALA doesn't live up to its stated principles. Back in 2003, they refused to back up the 10 Cuban independent librarians who were imprisoned in a show trial. They repeated the Cuban talking point that the librarians were condemned for breaking Cuba's sedition law. (As indeed they were. Cuba's sedition law is so sweeping, that lending books without authorization can be shown to be sedition!)

The ALA is not, and has never been, for free speech. They are for the appearance of free speech. They will support measures, under the cloak of free speech, in accord with the worldview of its leadership. Pornographic or semi-pornographic materials available to underage patrons? Free speech. Independent Cuban librarians lending 1984 to its patrons? Not free speech, and the "independent librarians" are not even librarians because they don't belong to a professional organization such as the ALA.

Free speech qua free speech they have never been about.
