. I had an interesting dream last night. I was standing on a concrete multi-level parking lot that had a central column. Then the cars began circling all in one direction.. faster and faster until all outside the circle's circumference fell away and I was standing on a white island. Then I woke up and it instantly came to my mind that the island was actually Antarctica, the central column, the symbolic pole. .

. Alm ost makes one think the Nazis did find the Ark... the Ark would identify true Israel [not Edomite-jews.] Wilhelm Eilers " In 1936 he became the head of the new Persian base of the Deutsches Archäologisches Institut at Isfahan. When the Allies occupied Persia in September 1941, he was interned in Persia and then for five years in Australia. In 1947 he was able to resume his career, as a lecturer in Hebrew and Old Testament studies at the University of Sydney." .

. Perhaps the Third Reich also moved God's Ark of the Covenant to their secret base in Antarctica. .

Aristaeus wrote in #9 Bible? Are you serious? Perhaps some dating is accurate but it's misinterpreted to no point of return... Bible is a copy from Egyptian book of the dead in the first place.
  You will get ore accurate information researching folklore and mythology.
Th e Bible is a copied after "The book of the dead?" You are kidding yourself. You are watching too many Youtube videos and God-hating TV trying to brainwash your silly head. It looks as if they have succeeded at it. Go smoke your pot meditating at how many millions of years it took you to become so dumb.

Igor has just graduated from the Pravda School of Journalism.

W ith articles like this, RT is becoming an international joke.

Readers of course would be interested to know in which Russian and European cities radiation alarms have gone off in the last 6 weeks?
Even Russian microbiological researchers recently were wondering why their meters were going off on their benches, only to find that it was coming from outside the building!
Nazis in the Ice? You've been watching too much Iron Sky!
Start becoming real journalists, breaking real stories ... not entertaining the masses with Pravda style nonsense. This may be journalism in Russia - but it is not Journalism in serious countries!

And where do you get YOUR serious journalism? RT has its bias just like CNN, BBC, etc, etc, etc. And as far as "serious" journalism goes, I suppose you prefer the NZ Herald's top headlines today: "Lady Gaga Confirms Auckland Concert" or "Holiday Bargains as Airfare Tumbles". Some choice "news" right there dude

Meanwhil e in the Ukraine government radiation meters are  'offline' .... and European meters are 'down' .... whatever melted down in Russia appears to be spewing waste into the atmosphere.
* ******************** ******************** *****************@Al though off topic you make a good point. And that is of serious concern for all the countries having employed nuclear energy supply reactors. Recently was revealed (google it) that the radiation leaks from the Fukushima (Japan) nuclear disaster is in fact much more dangerous with high radiation (spilt plenty in the ocean too) than this one in Chernobyl (Ukraine). The spill from Chernobyl into the Black Sea is not as devastating thus under 200 meters there is no life anyway due to its chemical substance. The other fact they tried hard to conceal is that Fukushima reactors are not only designed to produce energy but also nuclear weapons, and it might have been some stockpiles there on storage as well. And is why Germany, after this incident, took it very seriously and decided to shut theirs down. Such spills also happened in the USA, UK, etc., other countries, question is what coverage the mainstream media gives on this. You can judge of it by the fact this Russian achievement, concerning the topic, is not reported in the western media.

the earth is not that old after all. it's the evolutionists that keep adding millions of years to the earth's age to keep their theory sustainable when in fact the earth is not much older than the age of the bible which is around 6000 years!

"Lukin puts these environmental concerns down to Western envy as a result of losing the race to the bottom to the Russians." .. first of all, what the heck after reading this I feel like I just walked into a playground w/ a careless group of kids trying to beat eachother at a race, seriously let's have some respect for mother nature too every once in all, sheesh. Secondl y, I wonder if NOW is even the right time to be meddling w/ excellently well preserved natural habitats like this, do we have the proper technology to breakthrough and properly preserve said dwelling and surroundings? '...are you kidding? No, I just have to reach the bottom first!! Mother nature will clean up my tracks, trust me. '   ********** ******************** ******************** *******@>Goldboy, in your fruitless attempt kidding us around seems the only one you kidding is yourself. The UK and USA are working on exactly the same project using different technique - pressurised hot water drilling. And had you, and some other, put it that way, sounds like the old song… indeed is all about envy. And there you are spelling it clearly “No, I just have to reach the bottom first!!” But you know what they say “don’t try kidding the kidder” ;)
