Dear Readers,
I am not the author of the masterpiece below. It was sent to me, in Russian, with neither a salutation or a signature, by an unhappy reader from a former Soviet republic in Central Asia. I asked Zack Lieberberg to translate it, preserving as much as possible the peculiarities of author's style and grammar. I am offering it now, without comments, to your attention.
I am asking you to read it slowly and carefully. It's not exactly entertaining, but then few truly educational things are.
The photograph below was added by me. It is completely unrelated to the contents of the letter.
Yours,

You think you can rule the world quiet peaceful on this path? All people know people of the world, especially Western people, are the most corrupt in some sense. Many teenagers use cigarets, alcohol, drugs, and other harmful things. You think it keeps going like this and everything will be beautifully? The press often publishes about maniacs, murders, and other abnormal people. 9 most evil murder maniacs out of 10 live in countries under Christian religion. Don't you think all this is result of this social condition. Many think democracy is freedom and do everything they want. In the streets they shamelessly kiss, smoke, curse. All Western stars do roughly speaking striptease, all movies show naked girls, guys and others. You think having seen these things the young will grow up right? All gynecologists always repeat that masturbation is bad for your health, but after seeing such movies you understand their warning are meaningless. Porno sites on the Internet, every movie has an explicit story. Starting at 10 years of age young people smoke, drink, interest in sex. You may say Muslim wives are like slavery, but many of them are content and hate the life of Western women. A Western woman always fights for her husband and many know of his cheating and do not tell. Because the streets are teaming with females in short skirts. Husband saw what his wife does not have at home but not what street women did not. Western divorce and infidelity statistics are highest. 14% of all men do sex with his own daughter (USA). I can speak for hours about dirty problems like that and prove it to you. This is all a result of democracy, if you can call it that. Many people of the West feel their way, she is wrong, tragic, but nothing can do. Medicine says, if one hand is sick and can't leave it on, cut it off. I do not want to say Ben Laden does jihad, only Allah knows. It may be something political. I accepted Islam because this religion forbids all the problems I counted. The Koran says about purity, about marriage, about economics, about politics, about medicine, about geography, history and other. I don't remember exactly, but one important scientist from the West published 100 or 200 the best books in the world, and in the first place was 1 — the Koran, 2 — the Newton book, 3 — the Gospel. And it says there that Mohammad wrote the Koran, but the scientist does not know that that book is the word of Allah the almighty. The Koran writes about Moses, and Jesus, and their faiths. It writes how the Jews lost the right way, how Christians left the right religion. These both are admitted profets and are very respected by Muslims. Western people think they are most clever, most faithful, always first. But they are deeply mistaken. For example, now they are standing like an innocent child before global warming, AIDS, Drug Addiction, and such. All these problems and shortcomings threaten Muslim countries and this is why someone decided the necessity of jihad. As you know, the Koran demands it. Imagine you learn your 11 year old son smokes, what do you do? Good parents yell at him and beat him if necessary. But, democratically, you have no right to beat your own child. I simply want that people first straighten themselves, and then others. (For example Bush) People who every day convert to Islam are not stupid, but educated, smart and strong. Please, find the verse where Jesus will say I am God, warship me. You will find no such verse in the Gospel, because he was profet and warshipped Allah. In Islam, the Gospel is also sent by Allah, but that book people changed and the Koran was given to Muhammad. I do not speek Russian too good and ask you to for give me forthat inadvance for grammar errors. At 1st and second world War, USA fought cowardly and egotistically and collected more than half gold and lent it to the world on interest. Learn history and economy.

Russian version
An introduction to MAOF
Haim Goldman

Dear Friends,

Would you believe that the undersigned has anything in common with

-- Professor Victor Davis Hanson (Senior Fellow at the Hoover Institution, Stanford University),
-- Dr Charles Krauthammer, (Washington Post, Time, The Weekly Standard),
-- Caroline Glick (Deputy Managing Editor of the Jerusalem Post),
-- Jonathan Tobin (Executive Editor of the Philadelphia Jewish Exponent).

Amazingly, the editors of the MAOF website decided that the missives of the undersigned are worthy of translation and posting along the articles written by these distinguished authors.

The first letter was published without the consent of the undersigned.
However, after thorough examination of the laudable attitude of MAOF and of the excellent contents of the website, the undersigned had most graciously granted his permission for publication of his missives in both English and Russian.

“Analytical Group MAOF” [1] is an organisation founded about ten years ago by Russian-speaking Jewish intellectuals. The attitude of MAOF is definitely pro-Zionist -- unambiguously and unapologetically.

One of MAOF’s primary purposes is providing information and analysis about Middle-Eastern and world affairs as well as about Israel’s history, values and dilemmas. In addition to extensive publication activity in various media, MAOF also organises excursions and seminars. While the vast majority of the contents of the MAOF website is in Russian, texts originally written in English are provided in the original [2] as well as in Russian.

There are arguably about 250 millions of Russian-speakers worldwide and many of them do not read English. The indisputable motivation for the author’s permission was to grant those millions of disadvantaged people the grand benefit of reading the author’s ruminations. If the author is ever maliciously accused that his tacit motivation for authorising the publication was his craving to be listed along with the above-mentioned distinguished writers, his plea will definitely be “nolo contendere”.

The editors of MAOF expressed their gratitude by granting the undersigned a privilege that no other author got – the opportunity to review and correct the Russian translation before publication. The original letters of the undersigned are at [3] and their Russian version is at [4]. At of today, only two letters are posted but several other letters are pending translation.

You are kindly ENCOURAGED TO RECOMMEND the MAOF website to your friends and colleagues worldwide, particularly those who speak Russian. Those who do not enjoy the benefit of proficiency in the exquisite Russian language can find many thought-provoking and inspiring articles about Middle-Eastern and world affairs in the English section [2].

Sincerely,

Haim Goldman
