Steyn ping!

Now I am depressed..Steyn gives a somber take on Russia.

[NeoCaveman]

True, there are regions that are exceptions to these malign trends, parts of Russia that have healthy fertility rates and low HIV infection. Can you guess which regions they are? They start with a ‘Mu-’ and end with a ‘-slim’.

Sad but true.

Funny:)). Great reading nut guy is so wrong:).

"Russia always is not that weak as she seems but not that strong as she shows" - I'm not sure but it is Bismark.

Russia already 1000 year old. SO she passed so many crisises already that new one won't kill her.

When radical Islam seeped into the Balkans none other than BILL CLINTON was there to help, by dropping bombs on Christian Serbs. This is a crime that must one day be exposed and that Billy-Boy needs to be held responsible for.

This clear-eyed view of the death of Russia has to hurt Old Europe, which is following so closely in the footsteps on the path to self-destruction.

Thanks for the ping!

Russia is a vacuum wrapped in a nullity inside an abyss.
