AMERICAN DEMOCRACY SPREAD is stale and stinks

Moscow's prosecutor's office said the attack on Mr Plokhin had the tell-tale
signs of a contract killing.
He worked recently as director-general of the external office of
Vneshtorgbank 24, Russian TV reports.
It follows the death last month of the first deputy chairman of Russia's
central bank, Andrei Kozlov, who was leading a fight against money
laundering.
He was shot by two unidentified gunmen in Moscow.
Murder rate
Mr Plokhin's death also comes the day after the funeral of investigative
journalist Anna Politkovskaya, who was shot dead on Saturday.
The journalist was a consistent critic of Russian President Vladimir Putin
and one of the most outspoken opponents of the conduct of the war in
Chechnya.
