Just check my Lutheran and Orthodox posts on this forum, and see what it REALLY means for me to be an honorary Serb. Then it will be obvious to you why Schwatz/Ahmad's comments are the very essence of the word "bogus", and why his and frontpage's credibility are WAY lass than zero!

Being from "another side" I want to express my sincere condolences to all Americans affected by this disaster. I know, that I can do little for these folks down there. I think of them and wish they will get better.

Does anyone know - is there an online donation site for the hurricane/flood victims?

"The point your credibility evaporates"

Thank you, it is quite a compliment coming from a propagandist such as yourself.

" Former general, oppressor and mass murderer...the man you hold in so much esteam...hmmm."

Really, you seem to have a ton of admiration for Putin now that he's a "christian". He's a mass murdering KGB agent. Hmm...


" As for David Horowitz, his story died a long time ago"

No it didn't. David Horowitz has more credibility than you ever could hope to have.

Prov 25:11 A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold In settings of silver.

For those say they want to help, who actually mean it, thanks.

Maybe they can house the looters and gang-bangers from NO in Siberia. I've heard certain ethnic groups hate cold weather.

"You mean they could dock on Bourbon St. pier?"

I hope they're not sending submarines - we might have to rescue them again

"Here's an another opportunity for you two to rag on the Russians"

Their help - (that is "on stand by" )- is greatly appreciated.

All the lives they save will work well to reduce the tally of 100 million the Kremlin helped exterminate in the last century.

""The FSB Poisoning of Yushenko.""
"Oh boy, like this hasn't been disproved a thousand times.. "

jb6,

Your ongoning propagandizing on behalf of the Kremlin is to be expected.

But your effort here to tailcoat on to the biggest disaster to hit MY COUNTRY is beneath contempt.

which has taken 68 lives so far

Better put a couple of zeroes on the end of that number.

Thanks Russia.

Actually France was one of the first countries to offer help, alongside (as stated by McCormack:)

... Germany, Australia, Canada, China, the UAE, UK, Japan, NATO, Russia ... even Venezuela!

The European Union has also made a joint offer for help (on top of individual member states offering help).

France is the only country in which their help or sympathies are not welcome. Why in the world would anyone want to believe that? FYI France was one of the first countries to offer help. Your opinion of France is based on some shallow bias. Frenchies are mostly -but exceptions obviously exist- far smarter than you think, far nicer than you think, and far more complex individuals than you'd like them to be to fit your stereotype. I would know - I deal with them all the time.

"I just this minute got off the phone with my wife who is in Volgograd, Russia. She stated Russians are extremely upset, and are talking about nothing else. They are looking at where they can help."

Are they still looking? Tell them to check Fox TV - New Orelans is right at the end of the Mississippi.

And Thank You Radio Moscow for your observations - I wonder how many thousands of ft high we could have built the levees if we didn't spend 1000 gazillion dollars stemming the Genocide of 100 million (commonly known as the Cold War and Viet Nam) in the last century that the Kremlin wrought.

Oh but that's right - you're a Nam SF vet - you know all about the cost of containing the Kremlin.

The only person beneath contempt is you and your lies. And as for this country, considering 12 years I spent defending it, I have a hell of a lot more claim on it then someone who's biggest "accomplishment" is killing some commies on a gameboy.

Care to provide evidence of his mass murdering? Especially considering your hero is a mass murderer from a regime second only to Stalin.

This just in ... The European Union foreign policy chief Javier Solana said a few hours back: "Whatever the United States asks for they will be given."

Are you so filled with hate you would mock a genuine offer of help for our people who are hurting? God help us if the rest of Americans ever sink to this level of depravity. Russia was the first country to offer aid, with two giant planes filled with supplies and helicopters waiting to take off. Your conspiracy theories that the KGB is going to resurrect the Soviet Union are written by Soviet Experts who would be out of a job now that the Cold War is over. That is a sorry excuse for such hate and darkness.

I agree Russia is not perfect, but any idiot who has been to Russia can see the Iron Curtain fell years ago. It's INSANE to state otherwife. The country has a democratically elected government, with the president having an aproval rating of 72%. Of course that is not acceptable to the forces of hate and darkness.

You're right! I am a Nam vet and proud of it. It's little clowns who grew up with video games, and never having been in combat who want to see more wars. God save America from such depravity!
