The article was really very very very very interesting...It captures the most part of Russian Reality....Thank you once more....Now I better understand russia and the ideology of russians in this forum....Now I understand that re-making of History is not disease of russian...

Do you often offer stupid pieces of advice nobody asked you for? Did I said something like that about your link and about your comment....Nevertheless I think it is really silly....Just read carefully the article, the idea of it is as simple as the language the author is using.The author develops t...

... I just have a hypothesis that Russia is not going to win neither in a shorter nor longer term if it goes too far in its confrontation with America. ... And the reasoning for the outcome of such a confrontation is based in...Hollywood movies? http://www.atimes.com/atimes/Global_Economy/HC24Dj01....

My father has been to many continents (except Antarctica, I guess), he has tasted wines of all well-known wine producing countries, and he says that the most wonderful wine he has ever had was the one he got many years ago in Georgia. Actually, he was talked into buying a certain bottle. He was ske...

I think I have to conclude my opinion....I think that the ideology of the USA made many countries to liberelize and democratize, after this many of these countries show steady economic growth...It does not matter what were the goals of USA, the living standards in these countries are getting better...

In this you are right. Liberalizm is different from democracy.... But USA combined them and used it as ideology, ofcaurse the goal of USA was to get as much markets as possible, do you remember my talks about economic globalization, but than USA realised that it is not enough and started not only t...

Can you tell me why industrialization happened in UK and not in China, nevertheless to the fact that china had more splendid technology and history of technological progress.....There was no democracy in all these countries even in Japan till 1950-1960 Its because their culture had different values...

So?.... You can not compare Singapure and thailand and say that in Singapure democracy was not exported....
