  • @Dysanfel -Indeed, you are correct! Bobby's Mother was from Eastern Europe and back in the 1950's when she came to America, that was during the Cold War between the U.S. and the Soviet Union. Bobby's Mother was reported to the F.B.I. as a possibly Soviet spy due to a babysitter finding a piece of paper with Russian writing on it, (it was merely a letter to a friend of Bobby's Mother), and they were subsequently followed by the F.B.I. everywhere they went for many years! *Justified* paranoia!

  • @melissacarterTS - Overall character has nothing to do with the ability of a person to play chess or not. One doesn't have to be a saint in order to be good at whatever is they choose to be good at. Most people who fall into the genius category are looked upon by average people as, "lunatics". You seem very quick to pass judgement. Apparently you knew Bobby Fischer personally?

  • @kikook222 -"OMFG"? Obama Must Fly General? Bobby left the U.S. illegally? How do you leave the U.S. illegally? Obama *loves* illegal immigrants so much that he has come up with a devious, erroneous new term for them; "Undocumented immigrants"! lol Bobby traveled to Japan on what he thought was a valid U.S. passport that he had used for many year with no problem, but then it was quietly rescinded and he was never told. That's called a set up!

  • @ruofhatem - I beg your pardon? What's the problem now? I don't have much time for keyboard cowboys on YouTube. Sorry.

  • @realstress - I don't understand what? Bobby Fischer was Jewish. I have always understood that. So what?

  • @badjaeaux - What does that have to do with the price of rice in China?

  • the last time i checked Israel had 60 Grandmasters from a total population of about 5 million while USA had 30

  • @JohnQuincyAdams1 No, you don't understand: Bobby Fischer's both biological parents were Jews (his German official father was not his biological father, check any online Encyclopedia), so Bobby was Jewish. That's right, the Jews are a nation, the Chosen Nation, as defined by G-d (Blessed Be He) in the Bible.

    By the way, 65% of the World Chess Champions have been Jews. Hey, did you notice that in the last 3 Chess Olympiads, Israel was always placed ahead of the US, and beat US 2.5-1.5 ? :)

  • he pawned them all

  • "this is bobby: the lone american hero, riding out in front...."

    i didn't catch what he said at the end of the quote, but regardless, it's so epic

  • @harmaxxx Wow, so here you come along 3 months later to stick your nose in something that has nothing to do with you. I was going back and forth with JohnQuincy who obviously refused to reply back to what I was saying. You're ignorant for calling me "condescending" when I replied with truth, facts implemented by authors, IM's and Grandmasters. Doesn't matter what you say, no one asked for your opinon. Stick to your xxx videos.
