The first victim of every war is truth.

No news regarding operations, just diplomatic declarations and new spin on old news.
Either backround negotiations are underway or this is the calm before the storm...

It is scary how pathological hatred works, you should've thought the world moved away from that now. This baltic/polish/ukrainian thing with russians is almost as bad as the arabian attitude towards Israel.

I'll take a Russian dominated Germany over Russian dominated Baltic. I hope that works for YOU my friend. :damn: :nope:

This was such a weak argument Ant. Really. BUT it makes sense. Germany does have the coziest relationship with Russia. Russia is using that to make sure EU can not have any kind of common policy because it's willing to give a lot to Germany and give little elsewhere. It's totally divide and conquer and it totally works.

You know guys, noone wants to live in nuclear holocost. Not Russia as well, so remember that when you are scared shätless to stand up for what's right!

Happy Times, you are spot on.

the declaration by Sweden is very good as well, good on them. I hope Finland and Norway say a thing or two and over next week EU will toughen up the language also. This is just not on. WHo cares how its started, now Russia is effectively bombing a sovereign nation that has only tried to respond to provocations, caused by people armed by Russia!!! Faaack, think about it. This is not Kosovo, this is not Iraq. Damn it people. If you let the bully bully you, it will never stop. Haven't ya all been to highschool`?!!

I would call it history instead of sentiments. If you don't see any relation between what is happening in Georgia now and what happened 60 years ago in Europe it is sad. The outcome of this "battle" is clear. They say that communism has ended. But the people haven't changed. They still treat the east-block countries like their old satellites. We cannot have anti-rocket shield coz it "destroys the stability of the region". Even on Kremlin they know it is bullshi-t. This system, who some say has ended has killed millions of people and at least 2k starting from yesterday.

Also, why're you always so hyped up with "russification"? And if I were you, I would rather be concerned to fight the Islamization of Finland, at least it looked that way when i was in Helsinki, it looked a bit like Mogadishu in parts....

Because it doesn't look good in an east european election campaign, maybe?

Anyway US is the best
EU is here for paying the bills and all the rest

It wouldn't harm Polish Pride or Baltic Heritage to give the EU and it's members the sense that we are all a member of something more than a monetary union...
Of course I may be asking too much..:hmm:

Is there a reverse "iron curtain" lifted?:damn:

Happy Times 08-09-08 03:21 PM

Are you people aware that this "South Ossetian" separatist goverment not willing for a ceaserfire is composed of mostly ethnic Russians? That they are mostly officers of the Russian Army and the FSB? Their "defence minister" is a general of Russian Army, "interior minister" colonel of FSB and commanded the FSB Alpha unit in Beslan, their "intelligence chief" is a colonel and veteran of KGB/FSB since invasion of Afganistan etc..
:doh:

This region as given Russia problems ever since they conquered it. If I recall, Georgia is a Christian region, as opposed to Chechnya which has a sizable Islamic population.

Of course i am but we still have it better than you with half of Turkey living there.:p

It isnt russification in quotes only, it has a long history everywhere russian imperialims has touched. It is also very much a present day threat with many nationalities being persecuted in Russia today, many of them related to Finns and Estonians. Many peoples have practically ceased to excist because of russification, some cases are comparable to the holocaust and infact jews have been also targeted by it also.
