"Unfortunately, my English is too poor to understand you adequately. Do you mean that Russia was too successful in her attempts at saving herself? Or not successful enough? Or do you mean that Russia saved those who didn't want to get saved by the Russians? And who should learn lessons? The misguided Russians or the careless Americans? "

You excel well in English.

You need know that it is the system, or method of doing business, government I speak too. There are many Russian Christians who have put to shame many US Christians, and those Christians have my full admiration.

I speak about the system of governance, and how destructive governments can be to their own people as well as all people they come into contact with. I will not limit this to only the land of Russia, as this nation has had some very dismal elected leaders over the course of our short history.

I live in a nation truly blessed from its inception despite what some have attempted to do to her. I do not discount those blessings and do my best to maintain my standards in show of my thankfulness. Now I do not believe the US is the most blessed nation in all of recorded history because we are so good, rather a promise fulfilled and we in this day and age are the benefactors of that promise if we can maintain it.

Sadly you are most correct in that phrase "careless Americans" as many are forgetful, fat and lazy and do not appreciate what it is they have been given.

That said I also know that many people within the US have the need to do what Clintons called equalized all nations, and they mean to bring down our standards to be equal with all other nations.

Some conservatives think to be capitalists alone is the "salvation" of the nations of this world, however, unless done God's way there is little difference in capitalism and communism. Just to call oneself a capitalists and yet attempt to do ones brother in before the brother does one in leads to destruction of both.

You see there is one thing that sets this nation apart from all others from its inception is acknowledgment that it is the Creator that endows "RIGHTS" that no man/government can give or take. Sadly toooo many humans have sought to elevate themselves to "creator" status as having the power and authority to give and take the very Heavenly Father given "RIGHTS".

On the one hand Putin rages about his terrorists problems, yet on the other hand he is busy through what is called capitalism arming the world's population of terrorists with the very weaponry to fight and kill US who were attacked by the terrorists upon our own land.

Now it took 70 years for that ungodly system of communism to fall, yet it appears that the lessons of what brought the system down have not yet been learned. The system appears the same method of operation is in tact, just whitewashed under a new name called capitalism, all for the intent and attempt to make US equalized.

Just mythoughts, I see.
Unfortunately, Russia cannot follow your way of salvation. Our version of Christianity doesn't justify bombing and otherwise beating whole nations into Stone Age. Nor does our, possibly naive, understanding of human rights.

You, like many other Americans, seem misinformed about the connection between Syrian and former Iraqi regimes and the islamic terrorism. There is none. Those regimes are secular, originally socialist and opposed to radical Islam. Shortly: Saddam Hussein couldn't give orders to Usama Ben Laden.

To JasonC: the red line just below the button "Word Wrap: ON" reads: "Loose lips sink ships".
