There is no pro , but what you Vanadium sadly and seemingly fail to understand as folks before you that the reason why socialism /guerilla warfare communism turned out so bad for these small third world countries is because their very understanding of life and hierarchy is bad and evil , to...

I want to acknowledge one user of PF here , even though he hasn't participated in this very debate , Jim Hardy , he is an American and I believe he loves his country no less than some of you here do but apart from you he is always open and interested in the way things are elsewhere and shows...

No Sophia , you misunderstood me , I by no means was referring to you in any way , the phone thing just got mixed up I guess , what I was referring to is the general sentiment that our "western friends" are showing that things like phones were foreign to us, so I must have taken your phone...

Ok I think I now got the problem , the problem for many of you here is the tendency to "overkill". What i find especially funny about that is that you overkill even after someone who has real actual proof not just wikipedia articles and a bunch of anecdotes says differently. Yes there were...

In the specific case where the cast out the folks from the temple he was referring to not turning a temple into a "bank" but there are other multiple scripture parts were Christ talks about lending two shirts of you are asked for one , helping out your brothers and even your enemies , and for...

To be honest Russian is one of the most complicated languages on earth, it is definitely hard to pronounce for western folks , and I say this as a guy whose father is of Russian descent.It's probably next after the Chinese which is even more complicated.The beauty about English language is that...

I'm not sure @mheslep that you went through all of my latest posts and even if you did not I still can understand the reason, as to what I said I want to add one more factor that went completely forgotten in this discussion.A large reason , I'd say some 50% of the reason why the USSR...

Given either Trump or Hillary , I really want to see the US POST-election... I have a feeling the news will have much more material.

@Sophia , you said Another fun fact , I know a few alcoholics that can drink a full beer , 0.5 , in a ,matter of few seconds , so maybe only a few tanks passed by ? :D:D A typical Russian who regularly consumes can drink a beer faster than you can blink an eye so for him NO tanks passed by at...

the opinion expressed here mostly is the same between folks like russ , mheslep and you Mark , so indeed don't feel insulted when I label you all in one category , as this is just one specific category for this thread and the topic discussed here. Maybe my texts come off as rosy to you because I...

Yes but I think we need a separate thread for that , photos and video links get lengthy and this thread is already filled with lengthy posts I don't think this place would be suitable for that.Quite frankly I'm not sure many would be interested but you or I or anyone for that matter can make up...

My friend from school is a photographer and he once said the well know fact that a photo not to mention video can speak a thousand words , I thought maybe we need a thread here in which everyone could put up some sort of link or whatever to youtube or whatever where clips , movies , videos ...
