Not only did the environmentalists get it wrong but the social engineers did as well. The ethnic groups in the Soviet Union were only held together by force not by rules of equality.......which the Russians never folllowed and still don't today. The entire reason why Russia will never forge a decent working relationship or alliance with China.......they are too bigoted. The Chinese already had the beans spilled in the early 1960's on that.

Actually, the Chinese are also bigoted. BUT, in CH society, that is not wrong, but normal to think they are superior. The CH Hans are a bit more superior among the CH.

The Cold War joke was that you could walk across the bottom of the ocean on the carcasses of sunken Russian subs. All giving off radiation. The Mike Class that sank in 1991/2 off of Norway is still giving off stuff.

Germany was against our NIKE deployment and against US Nukes. Germany used to have hundreds of nuke power plants. Then the Greens came in power. Now Germany is not self sufficient and now dependent on Russian oil. Wow. That seems smart. So, I would never think that Russia had anything to do with the Greens... FYI, I do believe in the Easter Bunny.

Backwards. Russia (and the EU) are dependent on the Germans. The Germans "pump" the Russian gas. The Germans are the salesman. The Germans put the meters in the houses, print out the bills, etc. All profits go to Russia. Huh? Think about it... Germany runs the "pumps"... Germany runs it for free but has the keys to shut it off as they see fit. This is why EU gas dependent Italy and Greece publicly said they weren't paying their EU loan payments, then secretly flew to Germany the next night...

PO3 Donald Murphy - Very interesting. So you think the Russians let the Germans come in and pump their gas at no cost? RU do not like Germans very much since they look a couple of million https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_War_II_casualties_of_the_Soviet_Union World War II fatalities of the Soviet Union from all related causes numbered more than 20,000,000, both civilian and military, although the exact figures are disputed. The number 20 million was considered official during the Soviet era.
World War II casualties of the Soviet Union - Wikipedia
World War II fatalities of the Soviet Union from all related causes numbered more than 20,000,000, both civilian and military, although the exact figures are disputed. The number 20 million was considered official during the Soviet era. The Russian government puts the Soviet war dead at 26.6 million based on a 1993 study by the Russian Academy of Sciences. [1][2][3] this includes 8,668,400 military deaths as calculated by the Russian Ministry...

I honestly feel that its 1939 all over again, but instead of Hitler and Stalin partitioning Poland, we have Merkel and Putin controlling all of the EU's nat gas. Also note that China is redoing/modernizing Russia's Eastern leg of her rail network "for free." I'm thinking its so that China can sell Russian gas to Asia with the same "set up" that Germany has.
