Trotz aller Bemühungen bemühte sich die Nachricht, dass ein amerikanischer Tourist in der Stadt war, schnell durch Grozny. Dass ich nicht aus geschäftlichen Gründen oder wegen NGO-Arbeit nach Tschetschenien gekommen war, sondern um die Stätten zu sehen und die Menschen zu treffen, war bemerkenswert genug, um in der gesamten Republik ausgestrahlt zu werden.

Nine times out of ten, people consider a nice little Jewish boy the kid who grows up and sits behind a desk preparing your taxes. I've certainly broken that stereotype in many ways.

We need to dig deep and give people a reason to be optimistic just as Obama is doing in America. Because in the same way that outcome of the U.S. elections will change the course of events there and around the world, so too do politics here in Britain.
