he has his own judo video too. for someone who was more of paper pusher during soviet times he is pretty bad ass.

i do love my books on russia and the former soviet union but from a book i recently read it didn't seem to portray litvinenko in the best light. as in he isn't the best source for information on the internal workings of things. i'll check it out but not sure i will hold to the same esteem as i do politkovskaya's stuff.

give it a chance... there is a lot in there that both he and politkovskaya collaborated together on. So much that comes out of that country is shrouded in mystery that I never know what to believe. But at the very least, the book is reeeeally interesting even if 25% of what is written about is true.
