You DONT get plenty of mail and put your poisoned opinions out there for attack. This is a blog after all. So trying to compare yourself with Putin etc because you dont answer is just so juvenile and stupid ist beyod repair. You dont reply because you dont have any answers to the valid points and question put to you. Any mature person would attempt to deal with the flak received when they publish on a blog. You dont. You just run away. You reply to yourself(e.g. Penny) and whoever else agrees with you. But anyone who challenges you is simply nuts. As a student, like anyone else I had to defend my theses(scientific, not arts degree stuff) and accept criticism and grow from it. You choose not to you. Which makes you immature and a loser. Its a simple fact.<BR/>Now, back to the US - in what way exactly is the US the most powerful nation on earth -explain, please. Cos it sure as hell doesnt look like it now. Having the most debt? Do you actually know what debt means? It means you owe money. What happens when you cant pay back? You're sunk. Does causing grief in the Middle East count as being powerful? The US is the single biggest cause of militant Islam. Supporting the Shah, backing both sides in the Iran-Iraq war contributing to the deaths of nearly a million people -what are you on about? Does that mean you are powerful? Means evil to me. Its a actually quite sad because 60 years ago the US was a place that genuinely did good for the world. I have relatives there myself. <BR/>As for changing the tone of your poison, I'll keep posting until you answer my questions. Maybe I wont change the tone but hopefully Sharapova's lawyers will. Or even better, the lads in Lubyanka Square.<BR/>And I dont mean Detskiy Mir either.<BR/>GerIrishmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01558276383675719375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25230932.post-52031969188448051972007-02-09T15:27:00.000-05:002007-02-09T15:27:00.000-05:00LR, I simply don't care who is behind this blog.

Let me add that I am fluent in Dutch, French and German but also have a quite good contol of several other 'western' languages. My colleague Yuri is our expert for 'eastern' languages.<BR/><BR/>During that fair we had to make use of one of the business lounges the fair provided to get some paperwork done. The lounge was rather big and there was a lonely guy sitting in the other corner. I can't exactly recall what the topic was, but suddenly this guy came up to us and spoke to us in a language we didn't understand. (Later it turned out to be Finnish.) He had a problem and asked for help. I tried to speak to him in English but learned that besides 'yes' and 'no' he didn't understand a word. So I tried German, no result. Dutch and French, no result. Yuri tried Polish, Bulgarian, Czech ... no result.<BR/><BR/>We were close to giving up. Suddenly Yuri, rather jokingly, said "Let's try Japanese".<BR/><BR/>He addressed the guy in Japanese and suddenly a bright smile appeared on his face and the conversation started. The guy had been a former engineer in shipbuilding and had spent years in Japan working on a shipyard.<BR/>Yuri had been in Japan for years, working in our embassy and had also learned Japanese.<BR/><BR/>Ergo, you never learn a language 'for nothing'. There will always be an opportunity to use it somewhere and somehow. <BR/><BR/>Regarding 'Condi' ...<BR/><BR/>I didn't know she spoke Russian. But I guessed she must be smart because otherwise she wouldn't work for George Wanker Bush. George jr needs smart people around him to compensate his own dullness. But she is as much a 'hawk' as Rummy Rumsfeld and therefore her motivation to learn something most likely isn't driven by interest but by other things. I am not sure if I would call her motivation 'hate'.nopsamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08465304710847494729noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25230932.post-16045531731077093952007-02-09T05:35:00.000-05:002007-02-09T05:35:00.000-05:00Hey Sergei!

'Beaten' is the word.<BR/>Seemingly she IS fluent-its hard to believe - I read that many years ago in an Irish newspaper before Bush was first elected. The piece said that if elected Bush would be strongly anit-russian compared with Clinton or Gore and that waiting in the wings was Condoleeza Rice, a cold war nut who learnt Russian cos she hated the USSR(it was the USSR when she'd started studying Russian) and wanted to undermine it and be tough in negotiations. Like I said its just a pity neither the Soviets or the Russians could be bothered litening to her in either language.<BR/>But I was amazed in that the effort required was motivated by hatred. It just staggered me that someone could do that. I suppose spies and intelligence people have to do it all the time.

You're certainly correct that no member of the current administration can possibly claim to have fully embraced the appropriate policy towards Russia. On this issue, we have a ding-doing in chief, not a chief executive. However, the fact that even this crowd is willing to move away from Russia now is a pretty strong indication of how powerfully Russia has alienated the world, and when there is a new administration we will quite possibly see even more dramatic action.La Russophobehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05672264388217953086noreply@blogger.com
