[FPSPACE] Yeltsin dead - Kremlin press service

[agzak at optonline.net]

I can't agree more. Despite all his failures, he was a kind of man you show your children as 
an example of bravery in the face of adversity and justice in the sea of tirany. When 
newsmen on this side of the Atlantic judge his mistakes, they should first think about horrific 
incompetence of their contemporary leaders.
