TO RUSSIA, WITH LOVE

You just can't trust those sneaky Russkies.

Woman, 24, 'tried to smuggle arms from US to Russia'

A woman has been arrested in the US for allegedly trying to smuggle night-vision rifle scopes and arms to Russia.

Beautician Anna Fermanova 24, a US citizen born in Latvia, is said to have had the high-tech equipment confiscated at JFK airport as she boarded a plane bound for Moscow in March.

She was detained on her return to the country over the attempted export of US munitions without a licence.

Ms. Fermanova (pictured above) claimed that she was bringing the scopes to her husband in Moscow, and that he intended to use them for hunting.  Yeah, right.  Hunting what?  Or should I be asking "who"?

It's obvious that Ms. Fermanova is someone who should be watched at all times.  And frisked regularly.  You can't be too careful these days.

There's nothing like a good healthy pat-down to get the blood pumping.
