...controversy could be stirred up by the Serbs' choice of leader for the force--General Goran Radosavljevic, a.k.a. Guri, chief of the gendarmerie. During the Kosovo war, he led a cluster of antiguerrilla teams called Operative Posse Groups (OPG). Several human-rights organizations claim OPG committed atrocities against civilians; the 2001 Human Rights Watch report alleges, for instance, that they killed 41 ethnic Albanian civilians in the village of Cuska in western Kosovo in May 1999, though no indictment has been issued against Radosavljevic. A New York court is also considering charges that he and other police officials are responsible...
...understand Yasuo Tanaka, you need a piece of slang you won't find in any Japanese-English dictionary. Pero-guri is a phrase Tanaka coined himself to describe the sexual act. More specifically, his sexual acts. It's an onomatopoeic word, the pero coming from the slang pero-pero, which means to lick. The guri comes from guri-guri, which means to grind.

His guri-guri-ing of the political establishment, however, is proving to be a more strenuous task than an assignation with Mrs. U at the Hyatt. The ldp hacks in Nagano have overruled his plan to stop dam construction and rammed through their own budget. (Even though Tanaka is Governor, they still hold the majority power in the prefectural legislature...
...Tanaka may well fade away and leave little behind but a legacy of chuckles about his pero-guri adventures; in the same way, people may someday remember nothing about Koizumi but his haircut. But don't count either of them out yet, because they are both getting unwitting help from the people who despise them the most. Each time the Establishment pols and government functionaries criticize them, their popularity inches higher. So Tanaka loses the battle over the dams and the budget, but he wins the p.r. war for the hearts and minds of the people. Tanaka figured...
