You know, I used to love reading Russian history.>>

Jone, Maybe you should read Pushkin! You will see the depth of the Russian soul.

As for Lenin, I beleive Vladimir Ilyich is repsonsible for their misery, I doubt it if he was a hero! Can't blame the Tatar
domiantion forever! If Russians are reduced to what we see today, it was for what the Revolution did!

<< These Russians now beg for aid money like a mongrel in the streets of Pristina. How is it that they have fallen that far? >>

Fallen so far? You've got to be kidding. The Russian leaders have stolen from the Russian people for decades, while the people have suffered under the fraud of Communistic dictatorship.

Do you feel that "begging for money" is worse than stealing from the people?
