It will be very difficult to make America understand that her imperialist attitude must change. As I wrote previously; for the sake of all humans who are not US citizen (95% of mankind), a total boycott of everything being US made will have to be suggested for the brave American population to wake-up and well understand that she has a huge mess to clean-up. The Secretary of the United Nations could also ask for the UN headquarters to be located in a real neutral place. I admit my suggestions to be radical but soon or later America will have to get back on the right track; her actual geopolitique is too dangerous. The insane attitude of just a few thousands of her citizen must cease. Her imperialist, excessive materialism is not the solution for Humanity well being; it does not even work in her own country. Sorry Future Generations ! Best Regards... Jean-Claude Meslin

It is very kind and friendly for the Russians to help Americans at this time. The Rich Americans have tied themselfs into so many knots. Threre is a 30 year bundle of mistakes by American state department and their so called foreign affairs. Lucky Americans have changed their foreign policy a little bit, so that Hill Clinton is not in complete isolation and has some face saving space.

The once mighty Uncle Sam has collapsed to his knees because America has been wandering in a wilderness ever since Kennedy was elected to the presidency in 1960: series of media hype-presidents; unnecessary foreign wars; endless media hype domestic campaigns that wasted money and turned out failures ("war on poverty", "war on drug", etc); endemic corruption and incompetence in the government; and, an uncontrollable mass invasion of millions of Latin American peasants into the country. No country can long exist under such strains. Imagine if tens millions of Chinese would start pouring into Siberia and Russia is unwilling to throw them out - such is the situation in the US today. The RT image of a battered uncle Sam is quite appropriate.

Kihnu is wrong...If 10 millions Chinese will come to Siberia and respect all Russian laws and that Russia treat them correctly (like Russian citizen), there will be no problem because there is a tremendous work to be done. Beside Russia is underpopulated. Soon if the visas are suppressed with E-U and that working conditions and employment do not come back to normal, millions Europeans could move to Russia. In America, like in France and several other developed countries, problems came because migrants were used and abused. Injustice, inconsideration and huge wages' difference were the slogans used by foreign preachers to create a ditch between communities and integration became a total failure. Russia does not have to repeat others' stupidity. Sincerely...JCM

"Kihnu is wrong...If 10 millions Chinese will come to Siberia and respect all Russian laws ..." Really??? I don't believe you have the slightest idea what you are talking about. You underestimate the aggression of the Chinese. If ten million Chinese would come pouring across the border into Siberia, they won't have to "respect all Russian laws", they will dictate Chinese laws to the Russians. It didn't take more than a million Mongols to enslave Russia. Of course this is all hypothetical since Russia would never invite, nor permit, 10 million Chinese into Siberia.

It seems that Kihnu does not like chinises and forget than we live in the 21st century. Luckily, human relations are not what they used to be. Sincèrement...JCM

meslin: "seems that Kihnu does not like chinises" I don't know, I might like "chinises" if I knew what they are. What has 21st Century got to do with liking or not liking "chinises?

Kinhu. I did not intend to offend you; I just try to explain that Chinese, in 2010 are not governed by cruel monarq but by peoples living in the 21st Century. Beside if you watched the recent events, you will have noticed the friendship and desire of cooperation between the Russian and Chinese leaders...I have the impression than soon, the whole Asiatic continent will lead mankind. We just better learn to adapt to it. Peoples will move easily from one place to an other; including Europeans going East. Friendly Yours...Jean-Claude Meslin
