Very understandable. NATO should be sitting in the first row for the coming performance in Moscow. The play is going on there and Stalin is coming at the streets as the assertive guy of Russian history. So – no wonder, same street performer, same guests around. What about the world of Slavic silent souls? Nothing, we assotiate our only glasnost ever – with Jeltsin’s canon at a time. Not bad, many others had even less.

Russia is becoming more and more vulnerable as the world changes rapidly. Will russia ever be able to keep pace or will they be relegated to just a third world country with nukes? Russia's leaders must be burning the midnight oil trying to figure this our.

countries only the coward willing to sacrifice the dignity of their country ...

Green, I think the USA will become a "third world country" sooner than the Russian Federation - say in four decades when the nonwhites will become the majority of the population. What will become of America's "greatness" when a majority of its population is poor and begging for handouts as they live in squalor?

Kinhu, I am an American and I totally agree with you. All of the NON whites in America live off of the government right now. When black become the majority America will consist of nothing more than a bunch of people sitting on their porches without jobs waitintg for their handouts. America is falling fast. I am 27, I used to be proud to be an American, and the older I get the less proud I am of this country. As a white male, I am expected to get an education that I must pay for, I am expected to get a job, I am expected to pay all of my bills. I do not mind doing this, I went to college and I work and own a home. But the blacks get free college tuition that they do not take advantage of and live off of the government, and they reproduce like wild rabbits. So what will America be in 50 years when all of these uneducated, lazy, people who are mass producing take over the country???? The downfall of America. Luckily my wife has a house in Europe where we will retire. If things keep going the way they are here, it will be sooner than later!

the person who just said that all non whites live off the government. i am american too and you sir are a liar and a racist. if you check your statistics it shows a larger percentage of whites live off the government than any other race. so what are you talking about. do you think people just want to stay home, it people like you who spead lies and make america look bad. i bet your not even american.

I am a white American and I disagree with the freedom and kihnu. Non-white Americans are very hard working people, as are white ones, I do not see any difference, only the rotten banking system and lying media and corrupt politicians are putting us all down. The only really honest one is probably Ron Paul. Poland's government is all under American neocon influence. They do whatever USrael wants them to.

I understand you very well. I live in America, but I retain my Estonian passport because I see only decline in America "The Beautiful". Somehow, the American people have become victims of their own propaganda. I suppose the old adage that "those who live by propaganda will be consumed by their own propaganda is true.

Russia is starting to feel the squeeze being placed on it by countries all around them. There are many countries bordering Russia who currently have ATOMIC BOMBS and a means to deliver them. Then on the European side they feel the strangle hold of NATO on their little neighbors. Add to this the huge muslim population of Russia and you have all the ingredience of possible big CHANGE, in the near future. Russia appears to be "CIRCLING THE WAGONS" in anticipation of future negative activity. Russia's main goal is probably to try to hold on to their territories that have large muslim populations. Even holding on to the vast territory of Siberia could be a huge challenge. Muslims may want to take it back and China may have their own ideas as to the future of Siberia. Russia certainly has a lot on it's plate that causes them much anxiety.

The Polish president has decided that his country to be occupied by generous uncle Sam , bravo and welcome to the democratic world. Today 100 advisers, next year 500 and so on and he should not forget to buy weapon from his uncle in Washington or else there will be a scandal to remind him who's the boss.

dee small, I did not mean non whites, as in Asians or hispanics, just primarily blacks. And if you believe what you stated then I would like to know where you live because all I see are blacks getting free handouts all the time. And Kihnu, when you head back to Estonia, I will not be far behind you moving with my wife on the Adriatic to live with my people, "the whites". My country is falling and falling fast. Just look at our culture, all the stuff on TV, "reality tv". You turn on CNN and you see a show titled "black in America 2". Give me a break and get me out of here. All of this political correctness has made me bitter. My great grand parents came to America from Germany and never owned slaves, yet because I am white I have to listen to all this affirmative action crap and free college for blacks! If they would take advantage of it, it may be less of a problem. But we have only made them weaker by giving them their retribution.

@ freedom Let me guess, you are part of the KKK or some white supremacists group....right?...lol @ Kinhu Really.....get educated....

@ Kinhu So...you live in America...........Why? For someone who hates that country, you seem to be ripping all the benefits that Estonians are not. As I said before, "Hypocrisy Knows No Bounds"

Poland has now put all her eggs into the American basket and will now have to wait for the consequences. I foresee the following eventual consequences for Poland: America's fortunes will decline in the world as it becomes a nonwhite nation having to spend all her energies and wealth on feeding and caring for their poor uneducated masses. This will afford Germany the opportunity to rule Europe. The next knock the Poles will hear on their door will be that of the GERMANS.

Kihnu always critizes USA/EU....and in particular Estonia ( Russian minority member ). "I live in America, but I retain my Estonian passport because I see only decline in America" - You enjoy benefits that people outside EU/USA could only dream of. If you feel so bad ....return to your motherland.

Maple leaf: "If you feel so bad ....return to your motherland." I don't feel bad at all. I am actually quite happy with the way my small business is going in the US and in several former republics of the USSR. However, I do feel bad about the decline of American society which I believe is irreversible. You seem jealous that I have a "motherland" to return to. You again exhibit an inability to understand what you read; however, I will try to make you understand my position in as simple terms as I can. Here goes: 1. I am opposed to any American initiatives which intentionally antagonizes the Russian Federation and may lead to a dangerous scenario of events. 2. I oppose NATO membership to countries which do not strengthen the organization, and may instead lead to conflicts - such as Georgia and Ukraine. 3. I oppose placing missiles close to the Russian border that serve America's purpose of "squeezing" the Russian Federation and making the Kremlin feel uncomfortable. In other words, I oppose America flexing her muscles in front of the Kremlin. 4. I oppose America's strategic goal of "putting Russia in her place" - eliminating the RF from being a serious impediment to American world dominance. 5. I despise the deceitful manner in which the American government conned her own people into supporting Bush's attack on Afghanistan and Iraq. 6. I did not cheer when the Americans killed over a million Iraqis and drove 4.5 million into refugee camps. 7. Nor did I cheer as America bombed a defenseless Serbia for 78 days killing over 4,000 Serb men women and children. 8. I oppose America's self-righteousness in determining who should be attacked by her military.

Kihnu, "You seem jealous that I have a "motherland" to return to." I'm not jealous :) I 'm European descent and I can return to countries of my forefathers. I have different view on these issues (1-8) + "... decline of American society which I believe is irreversible". We are on opposite sides of the barricades...

Kihnu, Russia IS the third world country and is going down the tube so fast - USA, on the countrary, always rebound - the good time will be back soon in America. 'Polish uneducated masses' Khinu, dearie, Polish society is one of the best educated in the whole Europe. Have some selfrespect and do not show us your monumental stupidity. Being Estonian you should know about millions of Polish people exiled to Siberia, slaughtered by the Russian barbarians - that's why Poland has no choice but side with the West.

Kihnu, 'The next knock the Poles will hear on their door will be that of the GERMANS.' What about the next knock the Russians will hear at their door will be that of the CHINESE.
