Why Kazakhstan is Insanely Empty

Czarists, then Communists colonized Kazakhstan with Russians and Ukrainians. Stalin collectivized the nomadic Kazakhs, confiscating their herds, and starving them. Now it's a dessert of arable land with nobody to till the earth.

Not much news comes out of Kazakhstan but as far as I can tell, it might be one place where Christians and Muslims can coexist...I could be wrong about that.

So what are you suggesting. A dumping ground for leftists would work.

It may have something to do with the fact that most of it is an uninhabitable wasteland fit only for the hardiest of nomadic people.

Oh I get it! Move all South Africa’s farmers there before they get eaten.

The poor Kazakh wilderness has withstood nuclear tests, ethnic cleansing, diverted water supplies, and overly plowed farmland. Don’t infest it with leftists! That would be the dinkel berry cherry on top of the sh!t sundae. The South African farmers would be a good idea, though.

I saw Borat, and towards the end of the movie, it dawned on me that Sasha Cohen and his fellow players were speaking modern Hebrew with a funny accent, and representing to the gullible that that was the Kazakh language. I wonder what Kazakhs thought of this crazy movie.

Communism, Socialism, National Socialism, Democratic Republics, etc are all the same. People are cattle.

MUST WATCH MOVIE

Mr. Jones - the true story of the person who investigated and revealed the 1930s Soviet Terror Famine in the Ukraine. When not all Ukrainians would bow to Communism, the Soviets did not just take all the food out of the Ukraine, they took all the seeds for planting, and anything edible (dogs, cats, everything). At least 10 million people starved.

Sounds like BS western propaganda. I bet people there are happier without climate change trannies and criminal illegals being shoved down their throats.

Kazahkstan produces 1.7 million barrels/day of oil.

This exceeds every African country, including Libya and Nigeria.

They don’t need to grow food, they can buy it.
