“Its economy is smaller than South Korea’s.”
Bold faced lie. The Russian economy is nearly twice South Korea’s.
Russian GDP: $2.097 trillion.
South Korean GDP: $1.305 Trillion.
If it didn’t have piles of nukes, it wouldn’t be a terror.
Though I’m glad for what they did in Syria, even if it was for self gain.
And they are the ones who cut off the oil for money route to Turkey.
Not heroes by any means, but the enemy of my enemy..etc.
“. It trails Finland in technology”
Another bold faced lie.
Russia has had submarines, satellites, and many other technologies. Finland, not so much. Its first satellite was in, what, 2015?
The headline reads like something Obama wants to believe.
What was it he used to call ISIS? A JV Team, as in Junior Varsity? Yeah, right. We all see who looks to be the ‘junior’ right now, don’t we?
When the USA turns into Venezuela in a few years, this clown from the Boston Globe will be wishing we were the same as Russia is now.
There is a great line in A Man for All Seasons, after Thomas More has been found guilty with the help of perjured testimony from Richard Rich, that More notices the medal Rich is wearing and learns that he has been made Secretary of State for Wales. More reminds him of Jesus' words "What does it profit a man to gain the whole world and lose his own soul?" and adds, "but for Wales?"
By the way, TCM will be showing A Man for All Seasons tonight (10 p.m. EDT).
Russia has the world’s largest stockpile of nuclear warheads.
That is all that matters.
My husband needed a wheelchair to go through the Hermitage so we got one. However, the GUIDE had to surrender HER passport as the insurance that the wheelchair would be returned. SAD, very sad.
Russia is a MESS. Always was and probably always will be. Their newspaper, Pravda, which means "truth" is a lying pact of print.
Wishful thinking from the left. The truth is that Putin is pulverizing this administration and NWO nearly everywhere.
Just think....Hillary's emails have fallen into the hands of a poor, drunk soccer hooligan.
Boston Globe like all of the other Obama propaganda outlets is required to belittle possible allies and aggrandize our enemies.
I am damn sure I would have Putin as an ally, maybe not a friend but an ally than I would any son-of a bitch in the Mid East or Africa.
Thank you very much.
I have one added thought. Question really.
How do US astronauts get to and from the much ballyhooed Space Station?
Just curious.
“It trails Finland in technology.”
Almost everyone does. I’m not kidding. Finns were able to do things like pay for carwashes using their cell phones to plug into a wall jack to deduct from their bank accounts about 15 years ago.
“Russia hosted the Olympics, punched Georgia in the nose, took back the Crimea, invaded Ukraine”
I sense an agenda here.
Yeah, Putin was stupid enough to let us store all his Uranium. The moron.
According to the sports hooligans headline I was expecting a sucker score/s.
Yes, yes Boston Fishwrap. We have no need for a military, do we? What a masturbating Leftist rag you are.
The Boston Globe says we should not worry about a drunken thug with nuclear weapons. Our president is a dictator-appeasing, terrorist-excusing, anti-American coward, and I think we should worry about a drunken thug nation with nuclear weapons and an aggressive dictator in charge.
