If the goal is equivalent among Estonians, then your logic has serious flaws in it. And there can be no doubt that only sinister motives drive you to write such drivel here week in week out. To wish you a happy new year would only quicken the process of getting you put where you belong-better you slowly burn and shrivel than blow yourself to kingdom come all at once. Better luck next year. Max

That last comment was incomprehensible hatred. The moderators should delete it.

I am surprised to learn that Russian schools within Estonia have no language nor content requirements. Is this why some Russian youth do not believe that Stalin was the biggest mass murderer of the Century? Is this why some Russians actually believe that they "liberated" Estonia from Germany? All free nations control their education systems; it is time Estonia enforced some language and content guidelines here for these so-called Russian schools so these kids can learn something other than Stalinist propoganda.

All Russian schools in Estonia operate under the guise of the State and their curriculum is regulated by the Ministry of Education. The point to this article is to demonstrate that it's time to turn the Metlev's of Estonia into more than just voices in the wilderness. Laas' latching onto this article is to be highly commended, as are any and all efforts to promote the SM-s of this world to get a more reasonable approach into the hearts and minds of his compatriots. I don't see there being a problem with that.
