Good sized article:

He's ****ed off the Russians again, who are hinting he wants to destroy
the cooperation over the ISS.
Comrades! James Oberg - Trotskyite Wrecker! :-)

Since the same failure of the SM to completely separate from the DM has
happened on two missions in a row, you'd think the Russians would want to
get to the bottom of this. Considering that there is a Soyuz at ISS which
could have the same problem as the other two, I'm shocked that the Russian
officials are essentially denying that there is a problem.

Well you know how it is. Go fever and all.

And if you admit you have a problem, your customers may desert you.

Of course if you kill a crew, you're going to have a bigger problem.

But hey, those O-rings are only eroded 30%. See, it's safe enough.

See, the SM eventually broke off, it's safe enough.
