That's it? No crap about dictatorship? No crap about fight vs. freedom of speech? No crap about notorious Russian opressors of peaceful Chechen people? No crap about anything Russian?
Come-on DD, show me your best strike.

As for your post, I realise that you are doctor DinoDOC, but tell me, are you an expert in toxicology?
And of corse you was in Moscow's hospitals when it happen and saw how unproffessionaly Russian doctors heal their patiants.

Serb, if you check back to the relevant threads, most of the 'crap' WRT the theatre came from the Europeans, and most of the supporters of what Russian forces did were American.

Of course, none of us dream to die. We are humans after all and humans have instincts such as survival instinct f.e. But if needed for country we will risk our necks, and yes we will believe that we will survive even if our minds will tell us that "don't do it, it's suicide". I don't know how to explain it. We are very risky people. Why do you think we created such fun as Russian roulete?

bullshit

I guess we already proved it many times during our history. What makes you think that modern Russians will not defend their country fiercly and will not sacrifice their lives for this, like their ancestors did?

quote:
blah blah blah, find me an area in europe that didnt see plenty of war and misery

I was talking about USA btw, anyway show me a country which saw SO MUCH of it and so frequent.
And this is not all what I mean. Russia always was a "communal society", a commune. I don't know how to say it. We have a short summer and long winter, no other country needed so many efforts to survive on its own, native territory, but not only we survived but also created very powerfull state. In our local conditions only a group of people could survive, the individual can't.
This is what shaped our mentality too.

hmm...ancient?
Prepare yourself for Russian flag waving, because...

I am a citizen of great country and I'm terribly proud to be citizen of my country. I'm terribly proud of my country's history and I beleive that I live in one of the greates countries ever existed on this planet.
And as for food, I'm able to feed myself.
So, as you see we are extremly nationalists, we don't like to hear Russia sucks and most of all we don't like to hear "I believe in general shitness of Russian army throughout history" (hi, Floyd )
You call this brainwahing? fine. We call this patriotism.

quote:
russia has no more 'we' mentality then any other country in the world.

I doubt you ever was to Russia.

quote:
the highest straw is the first to get cut after all but this is not natural or voluntary. the russians are as diverse and as individual as any other peoples

Of course we are diverse, but still we have something which unite us.


You may throw-up now, Russian flag waving show is over.

Where did I say that? What I said is that Russia has no good record of how to take care of the "Polish problem", in fact, it is worse than the Polish record of handling the "Russian problem".

Serb, what you said about russian culture and ideology is not exact because it ws propoganded in the lasting ages of unfreedom of speech.

Serb, when we say that occasion with hostages shows us zero-cost of human life, we refer to the fact that the weopons used by terrorist were sold by Russia to Iraq.

It's quite exact. The Russian government decided to protect the secret of the gas at the expense of an additional 100+ lives that likely could have been saved otherwise.

There is no reason why the gas should have been exposed to the public.
No one suggested giving the press the information. But don't you think that the doctors treating the injured could have found a use for the information?

7/10, Dino. It would be higher, given the response you got, but the low degree of difficulty lowers the rating.

I'd always heard that Belgium was the most invaded European country and the site of the most European battles.

Cockpit of Europe: Belgium is so called because it has been the site of more European battles than any other country; for example, Oudenarde, Ramillies, Fontenoy, Fleurus, Jemmapes, Ligny, Quatre Bras, Waterloo.

E. Cobham Brewer 1810-1897. Dictionary of Phrase and Fable. 1898.

Granted, that's an old term, but Belgium was also invaded in both world wars.

Author's complexes is what I see when I read the article DinoDoc kindly cited here. When discussing "we", the author is simply jealous that his country doesn't have that much to be proud of as Russia. When talking about Leningrad and Stalingrad, the author's complex is clearly related to the fact that his country surrendered with hardly a fight whereas Russia fought hard for it's freedom.

It might have been a horrible troll but it was certainly worth it. I for one would like to thank the Russian 'we' philosophy which fought the Nazis so valiantly, albiet with one eye over their shoulder and think its pretty darn ridiculous to use it as an attack against the country when the alternative would have been far more sinister for the Russian people and the world at large.

no conscription, even in defense of their own country? Isn't a government required to protect the lives and rights of its citizens? Limit rights to preserve rights, dangerous paradox I know but sometimes unarguably necessary. I find it hard to believe sometimes that DF is a real person and not some character created for amusement.
