The Saker, is one of the most intelligent and honest bloggers I have ever come across – and his book is well worth buying cos it is massive and highly readable. He is a former? Military Analyst of Russian descent born in Switzerland, but who lives with his wife and family in Florida. He likes to remain anonymous – for fairly obvious reasons – if you read what he writes – but when he was outed by someone a few years ago – with a crap photo of him – but his full Russian name…He posted a very good photo of himself with a pint of beer in his hand and his beautiful wife kind of slightly blurred out – and asked his blog readers – should he try to remain semi-anonymous – or go full frontal?
