[The United States has obviously pulled-off this simultaneous arrest of two of Kyrgyzstan's former antagonists, as a present to the Kyrgyz people and their new government. It is intended as bribery, intended to pacify local tensions against the Manas Transit Center, before its anticipated ouster in 2014. This will further inflame the nationalists tensions that have been building because of the riotous ongoing strikes against the giant Canadian facility, Kumtor Gold Mine (SEE: Kyrgyz Parliament Under Seige, Again–This Time Over Jobs). It is doubtful that the Kyrgyz mobs will understand what has happened, or why they suddenly see two of their former tormentors brought to justice. With the usually restricted status of most Internet service in that part of Central Asia, it is doubtful that more than a few hundred people will actually read Internet reports linking the arrests. The United States has many strings left to pull in the region, most of them leading directly into the consciousnesses of the local people. Whenever they learned the true value of psychological warfare from the Nazis in WWIII, they realized that all wars are fought and won or lost on the battlefield of the mind. The US will very likely have its way in Central Asia, eventually, they know how to get what they want.]
