Mr McFaul seems to be unfamiliar with the concept of law and a justice system. If he is indicted by the Russian courts and required for questioning, why is that any different from Russian "suspects" being indicted by US courts and required for questioning?
Until the justice system has made its inquiries and run its course, no one can know for sure whether Mr McFaul is guilty of crimes or not.
So why does he demand total immunity from justice in such a peremptory, entitled way?
Surely it can't be because he feels that Americans are in any way "superior", "exceptional", or immune from justice?
Surely Mr McFaul isn't a crude common-or-garden racist?
Surely...?
The rub here is the ambassador enjoys diplomatic immunity from prosecution for events that might have occurred during his tenure in Moscow from Russian courts. If the Trump DOJ decides he should face the music then he has no immunity.
Your third question answers your second question almost perfectly.
Because he feels that Americans are in every way "superior", "exceptional", and should be immune from justice, no matter how heinous the crimes they have committed.
There fixed it for ya. :-)
Considering McFaul is just another Pyatt, all his 'Russia made up" nonsense is hardly worth an afterthought. He's in dirt up to his ears.
Only reason he couldn't get to square one pulling off a Pyatt was because he had no banderite fascist-style goon squads in Russia under his command.
Think about that one, Mr. McFoul. It's not only Russia that can read you like a book.
I did like this one review of your insightful book, Mr. McFoul. If I send you the review, will you sign it? I'd be honored.
Russia’s Unfinished Revolution: Political Change from Gorbachev to Putin
By Michael McFaul, Cornell University Press, 2001
http://exiledonline.com/mik...
This book is a four-hundred page testimonial to the intellectual and moral bankruptcy of the American Russia-watching mafia. In its pages, Michael McFaul condemns himself again and again with staggering non-sequiturs, self-serving lies, crude misrepresentations of his own past and the recent history of Russia, and repeated failures to meet even the most basic standards of academic rigor.
Why not the former president of the USA Obama, who was before else the PRESIDENT OD THE INTERNATIONAL ISLAMIST TERROR ?
Maybe he could still cut a deal with the Charlottesville crew to oust Trump a la Maidan.

If he has nothing to hide, then he has nothing to fear from being questioned.
Then he has something to fear.
What a circus and what a lot of clowns.
As they say, nobody is above the law or at least they shouldn't be.
I would say that Mr McFaul does protest too much and judging by his rattled statements appears that he has something to hide.
Getting back to basics where is the $400 million and how did it get there and did any go missing on the way?
McFaul is a bag boy shabbos goy for the Jooz that are trying to re-steal (1917, 1991, 2014) Russian wealth. Browder was a discarded Rothschild foreskin.
Let us not jump to conclusion with no substance
Plenty of Substance. Stop being a Gatekeeper you Hasbara Troll.
Any who claims people are working for Hitler or Goebbels today is a political fossil. Here you also are a political fossil for the same reasons. You don't know haspara does not exists ... but you believe that
Bonobo Administration exempt from Law, Prosecution or scrutiny---via the CIA.
He seems like a complete tosser to me, just another slimey American with a head full of shit. Fuck him.
What does one expect of grandson of earl Browder of Wichita Kansas, presidential candidate from the American Communist Party in 1936.
Earl Browder was lauding Soviet Russia and its successes. He didn't fleece the Russian people. His grandson is a parasite that hates Russia and has siphoned his ill-gotten gains from the country. No comparison.
OK Che, whatever you say.
Ah Browder the Zionist fascist peadophile swine.
I hope he one day will rot tiil his last days in prison in Siberia
The 3 ring circus that this laughing stock, America has become, seems to churn out one of these pathological liars on a daily basis. This scumbag Browder got caught big time & now he is hiding behind his corrupt to the core, Washington criminal establishment. Hopefully a snipers bullet finds it's way to your skull you filthy, disgusting creature.
Lee Stranahan Exposes Bill Browder, The Man Mentioned By Putin In Helsinki Summit
Just because I earned a couple of $billions by hard work everybody wants me hanged. This is not fairness.
Browder is it you? Using my facebook profile to comment here on RI? You have no shame man, NO shame at all.
Get out of my facebook Browder and DONT use my name again here for your bs.
Good spoof, Tommy -zany, but, good!
lol!
Browder the corrupt Chicago Jew.....whose Grandfather was head of the U.S Communist Party in the day.
Putin is not 8 Dan for nothing! Absolutely brilliant!
In the news:

"Trump invited Putin to Washington for summit: White House"
Washington: President Donald Trump invited Russian leader Vladimir Putin to Washington for a summit in the northern autumn.
"In Helsinki, @POTUS agreed to ongoing working level dialogue between the two security council staffs," White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders said in a tweet on Thursday. "President Trump asked @AmbJohnBolton to invite President Putin to Washington in the fall and those discussions are already underway.
Sanders announced the invitation less than an hour after the
Republican-led Senate effectively rebuked President Donald Trump for considering Russia's request to question US officials, giving voice to growing unease over the president's relationship with Putin following their summit in Helsinki on Monday...
I wouldn't advise Trump to go to Dallas.
As a "red blooded, Bible believing American", one who has served under oath, and know the duties and penalties, I suggest it's perhaps the best "diplomatic move" seen since Mr. Putin took up the Secretary of State's offer, took Syria's chemical weapons, and took up truly ridding the Nation of terrorists, both those of Saudi, and those my own government made. I was afraid for a bit, Syria was going to be broken, and I've served beside Syrian Army in Beirut, I respect them highly, consider them among the best professionals, as the world can easily see they are, and I hate what a criminal cadre are doing to my Country, while we enjoy our sit/coms and beer, and eat snacks and get fat.
God Bless Russia and President Putin, "it take's a man to make a man", is an old saying, and the same is true for Nations, I expect.

God Bless you, too, John. Truth is a rare commodity these days!
LOL! Thank you Mr. Putin!
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
Keep poking these idiots with a stick. :-)
If Russia is doing killing and poisoning, how come Soros and Browder are not killed, if anybody deserves - here are two biggest criminals and both of them are Joos.
Don't give Browder any more ideas. He'll end up sipping some dioxin and looking like Yushchenko for the cameras.
Can we be so lucky?
The interesting side of the story is Trump can say yes as president. Not much Michael McFaul can do then?
It will turn MSM Media upside down.
Btw. NSA can give tips to the Russians about what to ask. They know everything.
Assad probably would also like to question McCain regarding illegal stay in Syria
What I like most of all is Trump´s comment "an interesting idea and an incredible offer".
ha ha ha ha ha ha.
It will probably not be possible to realize, but it shows Trump is not stupid at all.
Yes, it's perfect. Trump didn't say No and he didn't say Yes.
Just left them in suspenders.
McCain is planning on having the white helmets carry his coffin and Ukraine's neo-nazis giving him a 20 gun salute at his wake.
Pay Back Time: Puppeticians will be taken out... One at the time...the Longer the Fun will Last...Russia just make all their Lies Visible... it is a very Strong Weapon... People are Tired and fed up with Liars, Traitors & Deceivers... Yesterday they caught our Foreign Minister Blok with some nice Statements...He’s like a gut-Shot animal at the moment...one more Trick and He is Exit....just keep an eye on him...

Stef Blok... You are a complete idiot... take your stuff and Buzz Off...the IMF or the European Union always can use Some Retarded Ex-Puppeticians Like You...
McFaul is expendable! Otherwise he would still be an active ambassador!.
Russia should be allowed to question McFaul. We should honor the treaty. Unfortunately, the intelligency agencies have more power than the president at this point. They want to assassinate him.
Sorry, folks, but McFaul is right in as much as Vladimir Putin has harassed the former Ambassador for many, many, years (accusing McFaul of several extremely odd things) and has presented zero (0) evidence that McFaul has committed any crimes, inside Russia or otherwise. Also, and this is important, those such as McFaul with diplomatic pouches are nearly never questioned by the police in any host nation. For a host of good reasons it's extremely rare. The 12 Russian citizens outlined in the latest, exhaustively detailed, indictments, however, enjoy no such diplomatic immunity.
2nd. Why in the world would The U.S. agree to have McFaul, Browder and others questioned by Russian authorities while the Mueller investigators may only observe? That's called a non-starter or, if one prefers, DOA.
Trump will come to learn that the Putin offer is simply not credible and a sure sign that the RF President holds the American President in extraordinary low regard.
Harassed? For good reason. He's just another Pyatt, (without neo-nazi goon squads to back up his machinations).
Besides, harassed is when you expel dozens of diplomats, seize embassies and call ambassadors spies on the basis of spurious intel or worse, none or worse still, fabricated.. McFaul was merely 'observed'.
Russell is such an easy mark. Like shooting fish in a barrel. Are you sure you're not working for the other team, Russy?
Hes's a simpleton and a mark because, he's not the sharpest knife in this drawer
McFaul: "Russia made the whole story up." Typical projection.
And Browder only became a critic of Putin (the russian justice system) after his criminal enterprise was uncovered.
