    Thumbs up for Italy!! And Good Luck navigating through "the incoming storm!"
    Now that I have gotten a little glimpse into your country's inner workings, I will have a bit more interest in its future politics.

    Back to topic:
    Russian sources reported that 96% of voters want to join Putin's regime.
    Maybe now Putin will assert himself more forcefully.

    Putins next move might be to close the borders (as he tries to annex the areas that held the "referendum'..........and then have the Ukrainians fight their own people.

    (He is "evil" personified")

    Yep. He's a killer. He's a twisted, evil manipulator and abuser of his own people.

    Unbelievable!
    Up to 99% voted to be part of Russia.
    I really can't blame them. It is my sincere hope, the transition will happen peacefully and cooperatively like it should between intelligent grownups. But it doesn't look very promising that it will.
    The outcome of this confrontation could be that we either will lose Russia or gain the world.

    The hope of the world comes out of Russia, Edgar Cayce said.

    We may get to witness a major historic event in the near future! Wish, I could have a talk with Biden and make it clear to him, NOW is his moment in time to show his maturity and wisdom and back off for humanity's sake. He has absolutely nothing to lose, only to gain respect and admiration.

    My heart is heavy tonight, imagining of what could happen.

    Three questions:
    who discovered Taiwan?
    has the Chinese Communist Party ever ruled Taiwan?
    do the Taiwanese want to be under Communism?

    What many don't know is that China has its own version of a Deep State. They have been pulling many strings in the past, but Xi is ending that. What's that got to do with what you ask? Take a wild guess, I've already given you the answer.

    Bringing up something 60 years old even though the world has evolved doesn't mean a thing. Russia murdered 20 million of their own people while Germany murdered over 5 million jewish people which outweighs anything the USA has ever done. Try again.

    'We are not afraid': Russians flee to Mongolia to evade Ukraine mobilisation
    Michael Kohn
    Tue, September 27, 2022 at 1:39 AM

    ...

    One newly-arrived guest, who identified himself as Aleksey, said he crossed into Mongolia last weekend, leaving behind his wife and three children. He arrived at the border late at night on a tourist bus packed with other young Russians.

    "There were a lot of young people, a lot of people trying to get away from Putin," he said.

    Aleksey, 40, a construction worker, plans to stay in Mongolia until the situation in Russia improves, and said he would do whatever it takes to avoid the war.

    ... https://news.yahoo.com/not-afraid-russians-flee-mongolia-063919184.html

    Russia is losing more young, able-bodied men to this exodus than it is gaining in its military.

    trying to sweep the Holocaust (slavery) under the rug doesn't mean it didn't happen. Over 5 million killed in America and middle passage and a total of 100 million killed if you include the larger white tribes (Europeans).

    Typical of liberals to look at 70 years ago to prove that modern times are corrupt. Heck, the USA should be blamed for the starvation in Ethiopia and North Korea, right? Besides, after Germany murder'd 5 million jews and destroyed countless nations citizens lives with their war, the USA did help feed millions of Germans. Can't be our fault that all Germans were kept satiated. This was a world issue at that time, not a USA issue. Even if we made mistakes, that was 70 years ago. The USA was involved to save the rest of the world from Germany, not to save Germany. There is no such thing as a perfect nation or perfect leaders regardless how you try to look at it. This is now and what is happening with Russia is the Russian Nazi's fault. Even now, there is no such thing as a right response or action in some peoples minds, obviously.

    By the way, how well did the Russians treat East Germany?
