see as long as the states integrate back to the homeland they are safe. places like georgia if they join back they have a bright future. else they will be fallen. i know its difficult to think, just image what if all the states asking for independence and all the state governors do a campaign by saying they will free it from washington and it will be independent.

like that those states have to go back for docking. russia is always for sure they will do good. and putin the messenger sent by god. he doesn't aim to be rich, he is the true patriot. for russia its worth to pray for smooth integration for the states. i wish putin to live long atleat next 50years in power. already russia is taking his collars high on europe. it has to think how to bring europe in to its pocket. alternatively russia has to modernize itself, like it has to make tie ups with countries like INDIA for education and health care. recently putin visited INDIA and really happy to see the IT parks here and willing to create the same one there.. there is a lot more to go to stabilise russia.

I wish Putin to have the blessings of good in his mission.


BS are you kidding? Putin is one of the richest guys on the planet...he is worth excess of 25 billion dollars...and belongs to the most exclusive clubs of the world elites. Georgia will not go back to Russia...nor will the Crimea...or the Ukraine. All we have to do is look at Poland...Croatia...Bulgaria...Romania...these will not go back to Russia...no way!

Well, in any case, this is the man without whom Russia would still be a pathetic wasteland that it was back in the 90s.


Ya you r right. but we can't handle anymore with this single guy, there are matters in national as well as foreign. One man can't execute everything and bring in the control. we need to have atleast 1 putin for every state and ofcourse there will be lot of people like him, but they need to be spotted quick. the whole nation has to work jointly in rebuilding. The nation i mean is the people and government. there are good signs in russia, hyundai plans to setup a factory there, good now the dependence over abroad for goods wll be reduced and in turn govt will get revenue. like this there are many industries willing to setup a factory a there. the govt should lay down temporary changes in their law which follows foreign units to setup there which will bring in jobs as well as revenue.

I didn't say he is poor or stingy. but his intention is not to become rich by using his power. he is basically a patriot and his story is worth to be included in history books. he will bring Russia back to normal and in the mean time he might become more richer.

good, does it include the reason for the collapse in 1991 and about the satan gorby.....

Also another thing i would like to know. Russia is good for information security. but with the advent of internet and English proficiency in schools is it possible to retain the same.

It is obvious.
Bulgaria is the new holliday destination for many Europeans. A lot of houses has been bought by British, German, French in Sofia and on the sea coast, the level of trade with western Europe is rising very quickly.
Bulgaria going back to Russian domination ? No way like you say.

With Ukraine, relationships with Europe are not so close because corruption level is still very high, but Ukrainian people know that they didn't get any benefits with Russia, they only get a ruined country with huge ecological catastrophes.
Ukrainians are smart and courageous people and they know that their future is the European Union.

For the rest, I mean Poles, Czech, Croatians, Baltics, Romanians, they would simply prefer fight til death than being under Russian domination again.

James, can you clarify this for me?
This is what you wrote in June.

So, are you saying that Putin made more than 5 billion dollars in a matter of a few months? Hell of a feat for anyone. I don't know if Gates, or Buffet have ever done that well, you think? I wish you'd stop posting stuff like this. It doesn't help anything.

Don't know as far as Internet, but language... There are a lot of new words in the Russian language today, used by young people, that my grandfather would call "musor", "garbage". Like some words that were adopted from English and reshaped into Russian... It is the fault of all the TV commercial ads that use these words...

Question

Nazi state?
Hmmm, well I guess if the government went back to looking after citizens so there was no homelessness, people had work, shelter, then it would be better than the state some are in now?????

I'm not offended, James. I think there's a fair bit of difference between 20, and 25 billion. But, on the bright side, if I follow your guidelines, when a woman asks how well I'm endowed, I can say, " in excess of 2 inches." Laughing

Yes, you are right. And you should try it for yourself. It's much more effective than name calling, and the self indulgent, narcissistic drivel that you post on these threads.
And, how would you know how much equipment I have? I'm a little concerned now. You are sounding like a stalker now.
