Whose Side Is God on Now? (Barry's or Vladimir's?)

Modern-day Russian "dupes"
Pat Buchanan's column "Is God Now on Russia's Side?" is difficult to read and almost laugh-out-loud funny, as Buchanan was once a staunch anti-communist who served President Reagan as his communications director during the Cold War. Buchanan's opposition to the Evil Empire, as Reagan correctly called it, has given way to an unseemly embrace of former Soviet KGB colonel Vladimir Putin, the virtual dictator of Russia who served the "Evil Empire" for decades.
Once a sharp thinker, Buchanan argues that Putin is a Christian and Russia is now a Christian nation. We are apparently supposed to ignore, or forgive, Putin's violations of human rights, including murders of journalists, and the invasion of Ukraine.

Wall Street Journal, September 17, 2010
“Few people are better placed than Mr. Soldatov and Ms. Borogan to write with authority on this subject. They run the website Agentura.Ru, a magpie's nest of news and analysis that presents a well-informed view of the inner workings of this secret state. Given the fates that have befallen other investigative journalists in Russia in recent years, some might fear for the authors' safety. But the publication of the "The New Nobility" in English is welcome; it should be essential reading for those who hold naïve hopes about Russia's development or who pooh-pooh the fears of its neighbors.”

Thanks for the link.
It’s amazing how many conservatives are snowed by Putins propaganda, just because we have a quizling president.

Even the Crimean’s have been snowed. Over 95% voted in favor of annexation by Russia.

Only 95%? That's surprising. Usually totalitarian regimes get 100% turnout. The Crimean news editor didn't support the referendum, but was persuaded after being throat punched by some Russian goons. Amazing how a little bodily harm can change a person's mind.

I think one can get a general idea of whether a nation is on the right track by whether that nation is being blessed. The USA was formerly blessed by being rich and prosperous, and that’s directly attributable to the obedience we showed to God in our laws. Whatever He condemned, we shamed and made illegal.

But no more. We’re in full-on rebellion, and our rich and and prosperous nation is teetering on the brink of bankruptcy, at least $17 trillion in debt.

So the USA’s blessings have been removed, and we’re sinking in the filth of depravity further every day. Time will tell whether Russia is being blessed by God for their obedience. My guess is, they will. Even if it’s only lip service by the elite, if they’re actually being obedient, I think those blessings will flow.
