Russian forces occupy the Crimea.

... follow their own rules. Double standards like this sets a poor example for everyone else...and besides, it was you who raised the issue of a so-called "Atheistic ideology". I never equated atheism to nazism....and who would've thought that a Christian like Mother Teresa had so much in common with nazi ideology.

But I'm used to far-leftwing nuts ignoring history.

Well pardon me all to hell! I guess that was justification for your boy Hitler then.

I roll in your disingenuousness.

...and I roll in your dishonesty. Especially when you cherry pick only half of a conversation to attack...

A wise fat dude once said: if they started talking much before fighting, they are not gonna fight.

Thats why I call bullshit on WWE, not only cuz it looks fake, but cuz of all the talking before the fight .
When was the last time did you ever see 2 boxers insulting each other before matches ?

And thats also why I think this whole Crimea thing is not gonna start a war, cuz they talked too much .

That's the problem with atheism. Its devoid of purpose.

That's not a problem. It's a feature.

There may be some truth in that. But another anonymous wise dude once said, Never say never.

Actually, I've seen a lot of Boxers insult each other in pre-fight interviews, Mike Tyson and Lenox Lewis for example. Lewis beat the crap out of Tyson in that title fight.

Appeasing dictators and leaders like Putin doesn't usually tend to good results. WWII is a perfect example of that.

Meanwhile...back in the real world.... interesting case study

ATOTSI, Georgia — As Crimeans danced in the streets this week, giddy at the prospect of being gathered into Russia, few were watching as closely as the residents of the tiny mountainous enclave of South Ossetia, who, five and a half years ago, were similarly ecstatic.

On the day in 2008 when Russia formally recognized the enclave as independent of Georgia, young men hung out of their car windows, waving Russian flags and spraying pedestrians with Champagne. Officials daydreamed about building an economy based on tourism, like that of Monaco or Andorra.

That has not happened. These days South Ossetia’s economy is entirely dependent on budgetary funds from Russia. Unemployment is high, and so are prices, since goods must now be shuttled in through the tunnel, long and thin like a drinking straw, that cuts through the Caucasus ridge from Russia.

The old USSR pattern is repeating. Corruption - even worse than here - will tank every undertaking.

I wish there was a way to make Georgia's economy boom while simultaneously thumb their noses at Ossetia.

Not so great now, eh? Jackasses.

That's the problem with atheism. Its devoid of purpose.

There's a lot of flags being flown behind atheism these days. Atheism itself has no ideology but there's a lot of things that would make people think there was.

We're really not going to stay out of it are we?
