The USA has a Russian prisoner without taking care of his health? Excuse me?

Perhaps he needs a transfer to a federal facility outside of Fort Dix. Fort Dix? The military instillation? He probably needs to be transferred and his family provided access to at least speak to him. He needs to be in a federal civilian prison where they actually respect human rights.

...Nothing has been said (click here) about the results of the examination. Meanwhile, said the lawyer, the attitude towards the Russian citizen has worsened. " As Konstantin Yaroshenko told me on the phone, they look at him like tigers," said Tarasov.

The pilot's health deteriorated over two weeks ago. The man gasps and suffers from strong pains in the heart. He has high temperature and high blood pressure....


He has something to do with Victor Bout?

...It all started in the late-1990s, (click here) when the U.S. government launched an investigation into the activities of the Russian businessman Victor Bout. George W. Bush in 2006 froze Bout's assets, arguing that the activities of the Russian businessman threatened the implementation of the American foreign policy in the Congo. In 2008 representatives of the U.S. Drug Enforcement under the guise of Colombian rebels offered Bout to meet in Bangkok. The meeting had to do with a possibility of making a transaction for the supply of modern weapons. During the call, records incriminating Bout were made that later become evidence in court. On March 6, 2008, Thai police arrested Bout at Sofitel Silom Road Hotel. He was accused of providing assistance to Colombian terrorists that the American agents were disguised as....

This was supposed to be a case of cocaine for payment of military arms. I don't appreciate the neglect and cruelty. That isn't suppose to happen in the United States. Why is he in a military prison? That makes no sense to me.

...“It’s good that we could meet with him (click here) after three written requests to the authorities. We talked for two hours and we had no time limitations,” the Russian Consul General Igor Golubovsky said, as quoted by Interfax news agency.
“Judging simply from Konstantin Yaroshenko’s appearance, it was visible that he has suffered from a serious infection, which has exacerbated the chronic illness he already had. Thanks to concerted efforts, the administration of Fort Dix prison finally turned its attention to the numerous written and verbal requests from Russian diplomats to provide him with medical assistance,” reported Russia’s Vice Consul in New York, Egor Ivanov, who was part of the delegation that visited Yaroshenko in prison.... 

Afghan weapons? That might explain Fort Dix. Odd, Russia was out of Afghanistan by 1988. So, like, ah, what is this all about?
 
Viktor Bout made his first major foray into the weapons business in 1995...

...The Afghan weapons contracts (click here) were dauntingly large. “They were faced with war, they needed us badly,” Mirchev said. I asked him about the scale of the shipments. “How many tons?” he said. “I never calculated tons. I calculated money. It was huge.” And, for Bout, it was just the beginning: within five years, he would be known as the world’s preëminent arms trafficker....

Afghan civil war, Battle of Kabul, right? 1992-1996. That might be an issue for some. Well, there it is. How stupid little wars are fueled with illegal arms and drugs. Yep.

War in Afghanistan spawned a global narco-terrorist force (click here)

by Jeffrey Steinberg

...The new terrorist international—built around the mujahideen veterans of the 1979-89 Afghan War—is responsible for such terrorist incidents as the February 1993 World Trade Center bombing in New York City. And British intelligence-controlled operatives, such as Lord William Rees-Mogg's underling Dr. Jack Wheeler, who were actively involved in the recruitment and training of the Afghani mujahideen, were implicated before the fact in the April 1995 bombing of the federal building in Oklahoma City, which claimed 168 lives. The Afghani mujahideen are the primary force carrying out the irregular warfare destabilization of France, since the election of Jacques Chirac as President, and France's ensuing break with the British "Entente Cordiale."...

They just don't know how to leave it alone. Now, someone want to tell me why there is such profound hatred between Russia, Europe and the USA? Tell me it actually makes sense. Any war is a good war, so long as it a war.

...A broad spectrum of nations—from Britain and Israel, to Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Egypt, China, and even Iran—would collectively contribute an equal amount of money.
According to one well-placed U.S. intelligence source, the combined Medellín and Cali Cartel contribution to the Afghan mujahideen was $10-20 billion!...

Very odd bedfellows. "Just say no," while the USA looks the other way for their war buddies.

...The men from Medellin (click here) joined together with a young marijuana smuggler named Carlos Lehder, who convinced the leaders that they could fly cocaine in small airplanes directly into the United States, avoiding the need for countless suitcase trips. The large quantities and the growing appetite for cocaine in the United States led to huge profits, which the cartel began re-investing into more sophisticated labs, better airplanes and even an island in the Caribbean where the planes could refuel....

The American people forget how corrupt their government has been. Then, of course, there is no reason to fear NSA surveillance or drones. This isn't Anti-American anything, it is fact. The USA has not had a noble profile when it comes to confrontational policy. The problem with Konstantin Yaroshenko is that a nation uninvolved in the corruption caught the Russian red handed and the USA decided it was in it's best interest to handle it. 

...And their business thrived. When cocaine use in the United States began to drop, they began shipping more and more into Europe and Asia. The leaders are thought to own huge swaths of land in Colombia, along with dozens of very successful legitimate businesses. The Cali leaders were astute businessmen and they invested heavily in political protection. In the past ten years, both the former president of Colombia, Ernesto Samper and hundreds of Congressmen and Senators have been accused of accepting campaign financing from the Rodriguez Orejuala brothers....

Confrontational policy is met with confrontational policy. Just that simple. If the confrontational nonsense would end, the tensions would end as well and incidents as happened in the Ukraine would never occur. Non-proliferation is a good scapegoat for 'we really do want peace in the USA' while it parks missile ships and star wars technology at Russia borders. Will it ever end?

The USA creates it's own problems and then decent men like Obama inherit the mess handed to him by zealots.

Look, if these folks were caught up in drug wars and illegal gun trade they deserve to be in prison, but, they don't deserve to be mistreated.
