*beginning of a telling, and chilling, excerpt from the article, for
fair use and public knowledge

The lone American on board, Gregory Chamitoff, was inside the Soyuz
for the entire six-hour spacewalk in case an emergency required the
two Russians to join him in the capsule. Chamitoff took books, music
and a laptop computer with him to while away the time, and could hear
everything that was going on.

Yeah, the American just got to hang around inside and wile away inside
the Space Staton, while others did the real work. Sure, some might
argue that it was the Russians' work to do, since it was their space
vehicle, but that argument would seem a bit infantile and vain.

Russia wants Hague tribunal closed over Bosnian Muslim acquittal

10/07/2008 12:34 MOSCOW, July 10 (RIA Novosti) - Russia is demanding the closure
of the UN war crimes tribunal in the Hague over the "biased" acquittal of Bosnian
Muslim Naser Oric, the Foreign Ministry said on Thursday.

The International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia last Thursday
overturned a conviction against Oric, 41, a former commander of Bosnian Muslim forces,
who had been found guilty in 2006 of failing to prevent the murder and torture of
Bosnian Serbs in 1992-1993.

Russian Foreign Ministry Spokesman Andrei Nesterenko told reporters: "this verdict
is yet another proof of the lack of impartiality in the work of the tribunal, a
demonstration of a prejudiced attitude to some of the accused and a lenient attitude
to other participants in the conflict in the former Yugoslavia."

"The tribunal's decision merely confirms the need to swiftly implement the agreed
strategy for shutting down its work," he said.

The Hague court ruled that despite ample proof that war crimes against Serbs were
committed, the individual case against Oric, considered a hero by many Bosnian
Muslims for defending the town of Srebrenica and the surrounding area, lacked evidence.
