Totally True (but I prefer the sound of the lie )

I fully agree Hans. Russia has low military standards, it sits by and watches atrocities with no regards at all. Russia sits and watches two combatants slug it out, until one is dead and the other exhausted - then Russia moves in for the spoils it don't deserve. "New" Russia is no different 'to us' as was soviet Russia, they made the choice to be less Gestapo-like on their own people! Russia, like Europe still has the same mentality it had in 1939 and the dormant potential for fascism still lurks there. Russia's granite faced indifference compares with Europes shoulder-shrugging version. Strange places these are. As Churchill said:- 'Russia is an enigma wrapped in a mystery - so illogical and unreasonable, and contributes Nothing to world peace, never did, whilst feeding the global despots & maniacs worldwide. Hard to believe..........
