    Did you live there, in Germany, with your grandmother? Ist doch moeglich. Vielleicht sind Deine deutschen Eltern nach Amerika ausgewandert, und Du besuchst nun ab und zu Deine Grosseltern.
    ODER...
    was sonst??

    Oh wow, not that it matters, but I had no clue Vladimir Putin was so short.

    My girlfriend is 5'5 and I am 6'2, it' interesting to think he is only an inch and a half taller than her.

    As to the OP, duh, pretty sure the whole world knew what the outcome was going to be....

    lol Uh huh ...

    The only attack that has happened was one of Russian Mercenearies who got completely whiped out when they tried to encroach on US military ground. These types of posts are comical at best.

    I'm taller than your girlfriend by 2 inches!
    Yes, we all expected Putin to win the election and that is a very good thing!

    Nice!

    The average height is actually the same in Russia and the US for men (5'10) so I don't know why I just thought Putin was taller. I apologize if I offended you though, definitely nothing against short guys.

    My sensei for instance is only 5'6 and is able to kick the crap out of me 9 of 10 times we spar!

    (EDIT- sorry I also assumed you were a guy, US women average height is 5'3.5 and Russia is 5'4, interesting info to look up!)

    I don’t think the stats are right. I’m 6’1” and in Ukraine I used to be the 2nd tallest kid in my class at 16. When I moved to the US at 17 my height was very average.

    Hahaha, that's hilarious! God I loved that show when I was growing up and still do when it's on!!!!

    I LOVE history and ethnicity and looking at and studying people from it. I had to do the 23&me test because I was so curious what I was.
    Here is what I got from the "23&me" report last year as I was super curious..... and guess what, I am your brethren! :)

    My exact report:

    - 97.2% European

    -- 92.9% Northwestern European

    ---- 76.2% German and French
    ---- 7.3% Scandinavian
    ---- 0.9% Finnish
    ---- 2.4% British and Irish
    ---- 6.1% Broadly Northwestern European

    -- 3.4% Eastern European (why do they not break down Eastern European btw?)

    -- 3.1% Southern European

    ---- 1.2% Italian
    ---- 1.0% Iberian
    ---- 0.9% Broadly Southern European

    - 2.8% East Asian & Native American

    -- 1.9% Native American
    -- 0.9% East Asian

    Anyways, I am a HUGE math/numbers guy and loved studying this when I got the results in. Hopefully they are accurate and not just some marketing gimmick, but whatever, they sold me!!!

    Besides, when the last world cup was on I had like 15 people say "You look identical to every guy on the German National Team!" I had to laugh!

    But yeah, I am proud of my German Heritage and since I am a total of 84.4% "Germanic" I attribute that to being a height of just over 6 foot 2 inches (almost exactly 188 cm) which is fairly tall compared to the average, not huge, but I am happy at 6 feet 2.5 inches tall.

    ***EDIT***

    To prove your point even further, I also have a size 11.5 shoe! hahahaha

    So Russian news is lies and American news is truth?
    Good luck with that. Did you find those WMD's in Irak, by the way? What about ISIS, have you supported and supplied them enough now or is that job still unfinished?

    While I totally agree with you, if you are going to try to say our Western Media doesn't lie their buts off too you are out of your mind.

    Am glad I made you laugh!
    A nice mixture; no Jewish blood in you?? But definitely, you are more German than native American.
    Friends of mine did the test, too, and were surprised. She is from southern Germany and found out, she was about half Italian or Roman. While her Husband was sure to be a Viking, he truly looks like one, no such thing... he was 99% British!
    I don't need to take the test... I know I am German!
    Probably, could have joined the Waffen SS.
    It is nice to be tall, especially as a man. My Dad and brothers are also tall, between 1.80 - 1.88 m.
    For your height that sounds normal to me. I wear lady's 11! In Germany shoe sizes are different... they go from the thirties to the high forty numbers.

    Yup, lots of Jewish Blood in me. It's a separate piece, that page is only about the Geographic area.

    I was 37% Ashkenazi in the long form of the testing. Pretty cool to do! But yeah, so as someone who is a little over a third German Jew .... I woulda been a goner no matter how German I look!

    According to CNN? It's like the National Enquirer.
    Good luck.

    * RT says the US funded and supported ISIS, Ameican news says no.
    Russia told the truth, American news lied.

    * Russian news said there were no WMD's in Irak, the US news said WMD's were scattered all over the place.
    Russians told the truth, Ameican news lied.

    And it was exactly said? Link please? The thing is that RT, no matter how propagandistic it is, unlike Western politicians, tries to avoid direct unproven allegations :) I do not remember if RT somewhere directly said that the US sponsors ISIS.

    I understood. On the first two links, I have no special questions, I do not understand English, although it seemed to me that the information there is not for authorship of RT, but for reporting with someone else's opinion.

    On the last link - Putin did not say that the US is funding ISIS. Putin said that the US supports the Syrian opposition, among which there are many terrorists. But this is not ISIS :) And such support, of course, is a real fact.

    I can not say anything for the English version of the RT reports, but Putin, for sure, never makes unproven statements.
