You are right that Ukrainians are Slavs, but European Russians, shall we say, are not Slavs, they are simply "Europeans." Ethnically, they dislike each other in the same sense as tribes in Pakistan, Afghanistan, and India do not "love" each other. Russia - The World Factbook...

Thanks for your kind remarks Mike2000. And Rule Britannia to you! Have a good weekend.

Most of Eastern Ukraine, even though some but by no means all of the cities have a majority of "Russian speakers" will vote overall about 2/3's NOT to become part of Russia, about 1/3 to rejoin with Russia. Majority still rules in a democracy, but like it or not, Ukraine is more of a democracy...

Your opinion has no logic. What you must mean is you dislike decisions duly made by the US Congress in support of requests to authorize and fund military actions of the US Government, after due processing for outside evaluation with and through the UN General Assembly. You might also want to...

You are clearly "slow" with facts. During this month, April, 2014, Russia (Mr. Putin) took over the daily newspaper, THE MOSCOW TIMES, and removed the editor of the RIA (Russian Information Agency) and then made her the new head Editor of THE MOSCOW TIMES. What this says is that there is no...

I was a boy during WWII. The Chinese and Japanese from WWII hated each others guts, plainly said. The Nationalist Chinese, now on Formosa, called a truce with the Communist Chinese, and they jointly fought the Japanese. The massacres and carnage was unimaginable starting in the mid-1930s...
