We proud our territory and military traditions.
I have no doubt about that. But there's this expression you occasionally hear: "Who is we, white boy?"
Probably like no one Russian ppl have empire spirit but it never went out with aggression against other country.
If you're saying that Russia has never shown any aggression towards its neighbors, you need to stop smoking crack. Seriously.
Now Russians actually young generation admires Putin and his politic course You should watch recent Russian blockbuster "9 Rota" which beated all records in Russia. Movie is about Afganistanian war
Yeah, I saw "Brother" (Bpatb- sorry, don't know how to insert cyrillic characters), and I think I pretty much got the gist of it. It might be interesting to know how well movies like that do south of Kazan.

You do realize that most of the fighting in Chechnya is now between pro-Russian Chechens and Islamics, right?

First attack was on Poland at 39 but SU had took back territory which Poland took during Soviet-Poland war several years before.
In Afghanistan SU built more then ruined. Anyway it was mistake. yes. But we loose to USA if to be honest in aggression alot it is true. Russia never made steps like France or Germany or USA now in human history.
