Because the press is run by the government, the Russian people have no reason to doubt this.<\/p>\n<p>The children are the ones being hurt by this decision. The orphanages in Russia do not educate the children to find jobs when they leave the orphanage, and many of these children have no place to live or no food to eat. One of the charities that has been working to change the lives of these children is <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cbn.com\/worldreach\/worldreach_projects_orphans_promise.aspx\">Orphan&#8217;s Promise<\/a>. They are one of many organizations working to change things for the children in orphanages around the world with no hope for the future. Unfortunately, this new decision by the Russian government means that more children in Russia will be stuck in the poverty of that nation.<\/p>\n<div class=\"zemanta-pixie\" style=\"margin-top: 10px; height: 15px;\"><a class=\"zemanta-pixie-a\" title=\"Enhanced by Zemanta\" href=\"http:\/\/www.zemanta.com\/?px\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"zemanta-pixie-img\" style=\"border: none; float: right;\" alt=\"Enhanced by Zemanta\" src=\"http:\/\/img.zemanta.com\/zemified_e.png?x-id=cd704ba5-57b2-40cf-af9a-ac75d2f96104\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Scott Johnson at Power Line posted an article today about the recent changes in adoption policies regarding Americans adopting children from Russia.
