Oh, he's also a criminal:
In 1999, one of Zeman's advisors, Jaroslav Novotný, allegedly blackmailed the director of the state-owned ŠtiřÃn Castle, Václav Hrubý. Novotný allegedly pressed him to falsify evidence in order to prove that former Foreign Minister Josef Zieleniec corrupted journalists. The police confirmed the blackmail, but nobody was punished, despite convincing evidence.[37]
Zeman has been often criticized for his contacts with the powerful Czech lobbyist and his former chief advisor, Miroslav Šlouf. During Zeman's prime minister-ship, Šlouf maintained contacts with the controversial entrepreneur František Mrázek, nicknamed the "Godfather of Czech Organized Crime". Šlouf and Mrázek met and exchanged information at the Office of the Government of the Czech Republic.[38] Mrázek was assassinated in 2006. In the leaked wiretapping records, he nicknames Zeman mlha ("fog") and claims that Zeman "could not be bribed, and wanted only a sandwich, three pickles and for people to like him."[39] In 2010, Šlouf and Martin Nejedlý, a representative of the Russian oil company LUKoil in the Czech Republic, were the main sponsors of his Party of Civic Rights – Zemanovci.[40]Last edited by Kepler; 08-02-2016, 02:18 PM.Cornell University

Originally posted by FlagDUDE08 View PostThen you probably also know that the Czechs were one of the first to reinstate the use of firearms after the Soviet Union (which had banned firearms from the citizenry) had collapsed. It's not all that surprising from a country like this to see it happen. There's also nothing wrong with being a nationalist. A leader should want his/her country to be the strongest in the world, and that there are plenty of groups out there looking to destroy it.Cornell University

Re: Global War on Terror 8 - Winter is Coming
A German look at the world and its troubles.
So what can we do? The West's strength has always been in its ability to accept criticism directed at it and to change. The Western economic order -- capitalism -- has proven itself to be durable because it was flexible and capable of adapting. In the battle of systems against socialism, capitalism was also superior because it integrated social issues and transformed into a social market economy. The West will need to develop this force for integration again. That sounds provocative. How, after all, is democracy supposed to integrate its enemies -- the Islamists, the populists and the authoritarians?
Of course we cannot sacrifice the principles of democracy and rule of law, but our political system must address the fears and needs that are spawning a yearning for authoritarianism: the need for order and reliability, the longing for identity, clarity, a sense of place, the feeling of a loss of control in the era of globalization. Trying to talk people into believing that they are globalization's winners is of no help if that doesn't correspond with the way they perceive their lives to be. It discredits democracy when European integration is pushed forward even though a majority reject it. It subverts trust in politicians when they insist on open borders, while the people want to know who is in their country.Cornell University
