In an attack against the United States Russia Today has made streams of videos attacking the United States while at the same time building alliances with Hugo Chavez and other enemies of the USA. Vicktor Bout "the merchant of death" is thought to have supplied the FARC while Russia Today has defended this illegal arms dealer and made him seem innocent. Russia leads the world in organized crime. Much of the crime isn't even reported because the government doesn't stop the mafia from doing business which includes prostitution, sex slavery, slavery, extortion, illegal arms trade, murder, drugs, misc organized crime and violent crime. Russia ranks very high in all the crime categories. Much of Russian media is geared to make Russia look good and the United States very evil.
