It's true, Russia ain't the good guys by any means. However, my overwhelming prejudice is militant Islam.

The Russians aren’t good, but honestly, they’ve suffered some real tragedies at the hands of Muslims and usually will fight with Shia and minority Muslim groups against Sunni.

American intelligence services suspect that Russia tried to influence the recent American presidential election. NO that is FALSE. There is a "leak" from an UNKNOWN source claiming to be speaking for the CIA. This from the same fake media that brought you the "Benghazi attack was caused by a anti Muslim video" lie. THERE IS NO REPORT. THERE IS NO SUSPICION. IT IS A LIE. Why the hell are even Conservatives so easily manipulated by the Fake Media?

Russian women do NOT look odd ... they are some of the most beautiful women in the world.

The problem is that we are a natural sea power whereas Russia, is of necessity an Asian land power. Now no rationale person chooses the role of being an Asian land power. You don't have natural boundaries or buffers (the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans are good buffers) and you are constantly at risk of invasion and incursions by other Asian tribes (Kazaks, Mongols, Chinese, Koreans, etc.) or even European ones (Germans, French, Lapps).
But being in Russia, and wanting security you are stuck with the job.
We however got sick of being a sea power and tried to become a rival Asian landpower. It's insanity on our part.
