Russia demands probe into US moon landing
Newsweek ^ | June 18, 2015 | Damien Sharkov

Russia's investigative committee spokesman has demanded that an international investigation be launched into the US 1969 moon landings, after a US-led investigation into the world governing body Fifa, cast doubt over the fairness of choosing Russia to host the next World Cup.

Nine Fifa officials were implicated in a US and Swiss investigation into the alleged corruption, with the scandal eventually leading to the organisation's president Sepp Blatter to announce his resignation. Russia and Qatar have both denied that their hosting rights are linked to any wrongdoing, however about a fortnight ago the US Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) confirmed to the Telegraph that it is launching an inquiry into sponsorship deals for these two tournaments.

Today Vladimir Markin, spokesman for the Russian Federation Investigative Committee, hit back at the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) probe in a newspaper column for national daily Izvestia....

I remember a movie where there was a big ant colony on the moon.

I had wondered where the ants in the back yard went.

To understand the stupidities of Russia one must be aware of something:

Russia seeks to create an atmosphere of “unreality.” That is how it is in Russia itself, where no one really knows what is true or not, and they stopped caring a long time ago, just picking what they like the best.

If the propaganda machine was running to such perfection, why was the country and the gvmnt in such a mess? How old are you BTW?

Gotta admit, the Russians are always good for a laugh. Next, they’ll be 9/11 troofers.

They already are. 9/11 Trutherism appears on state-controlled Russian media. They do it because the Russkies are actually guilty of "false flag terrorist attacks" on their own soil, even recently, such as the Moscow Apartment bombings. Some FSB were caught planted explosives, then they later claimed it was sugar bags and that it was to test to make sure the population was paying attention (but they didn't alert the local police?), and then evidence was stolen from police departments and people looking into it start dying.

So Russkies project their own crimes on others. It's what they, and all liberals, do.

Oh, it makes sense as a distraction from Vlad’s own problems.

I understand it was a translated article as well. I just thought that particular word was odd, in this context.

And pointing it out gives the little green men on the moon conspiracy something to think about.

Russia has already spent millions preparing for the World Cup and it would be wrong to take it away from them. Whatever corruption may have happened, didn’t start with them. Unless you can go back in time and punish everyone, the only proper thing to do is fix the problem for the future. It is not fair to punish one out of spite over other issues.

This should warm what passes for the hearts of Putin's astroturf around here.

No doubt Sheila Jackson-Lee is behind this, she’s still waiting to see the flag that was planted on Mars.

MORE and more I realize the government has always lied to us. If there is any DOUBT about the Moon Landing, as it doubt does exist in other countries, then an International Investigation should be opened.

Are they suggesting that we found something extrasolar in origin?

I skipped high scool with a couple freinds to drive from Tampa to the Cape to see a moon launch.
Not as spectacular as a shuttle launch but it did happen.
And at the time, WOW.

“Next, they’ll be 9/11 troofers.”

LOL ! They've been doing it since years. Check out RT, Sputnik and all that garbage.
