This is about Ukraine now, not Belarus, but the main winner in the Ukrainian elections that just took place was Yanukovich, making the Western consensus of a year ago about what was happening in Ukraine truly risible -- they predicted he was a dead duck. Western pundits really don't understand this part of the world at all. It's quite funny to watch them -- it's ideology uber alles for them, or so it seems. They write what the people that matter in their circles expect them to write, whether it corresponds with reality or no.
