Ah Yes, Russians, they Destroyed the Inuits in Alaska and Canada, Not to mention the Native Siberian Tribes, after that they perpetrated Serfdom, then there was the Russian Civil war, After that they were the Second (I think, Maybe the British Beat them to it) to get an Atomic Bomb. No Thanks, I prefer being an American.

Heinlein wrote that, what, in the 1950s? It would be interesting to get his analysis of today’s world cultures.

Dear Germany or Russia

Actually, if you read his rant, it is hilariously funny - full of goofy mistakes and totally wrong timelines. I could never take this big oaf seriously. But he is a good actor.

Why did he leave France?

One of the many wealthy Frenchmen who fled when it became clear President Hollande was serious about a 90% tax rate on the EEEEEEEEVIL Rich.
