I know there are reasons, but you’re walking a fine line there, bud.

What amuses me about this is that they’re taking a very shaky conspiracy theory that has had a good result–that of increased freedom–and equating it with what Hitler wrought. The Orange Revolution is the moral equivalent of the Holocaust or the destruction of Soviet cities?

But if you think Guantanamo and the Gulag are morally comparable, I can see why this would be shrugged off as normal.

sorry but if you follow the political debate for example in Germany you see that criticzing capitalism is not a monopol of russia (DW is offical german gosudarstva telvision)

Maybe you want to live in Abu-Ghureib or in a Guantanamo camp and i guess they are similar to Stalin’s worldfamous gulag, but please accept that there are reason to not like America…
so give me your explanation for the london bombings? Probably russian KGB hiding behind the El-Kaida….

i love russians, i really do, but i swear they have an inborn inability to even imagine that a) other peoples might not appreciate being cuddled under their benevolent, parental wings and b) not all other countries are out to get them.

i think i find them easy to love because they seem so much like us…
