Default Viktor Stetshkin?

Anyone from Russsia heard of him? Didnt find anything on the Web. Seems its just another alias created to spread paranoid propaganda. Bought my daily and in the first page of foreign news i read that according to his book Finland is gearing up for war against Russia. Could be funny otherwise but many of the accusations are same that Kreml
has put out. I suspect that this book is ordered by them to create threats. FSB smells a mile away.

Hmm, I've heard about him, though never read. I don't like that kind of hysteric literature There are enough such "authors" in Russia nowadays - spreading different kinds of imperial-nationalistic ideas or something like that... I've seen such books even in our Duma (parliament)
If you want, I can dig smth about him a bit later.
But, please, don't take him seriously Especially about Finland! I don't believe that Kreml or FSB has something hostile in minds. (They've got more other troubles now )

Well id be interested to hear what you find out. Is he even a real person? Ive also noticed that geopolitics is popular way to wiew the world in Russia. The arguments just often sound pretty paranoid and expansionist.

1) doubt he is real
2) if he is he is nuts

taking a big risk but some times putin makes these things up just so he can wade in and save the day
