The Kremlin Halls look really nice.

Putin has often visited Vienna, has cultivated an open friendship with the German president Schroeder... He seems to be a friend looking for more cooperation and not an enemy seeking confrontation.

Russians just like Germans or other Europeans love to deny the problems of their country, because of national pride and act strong. Just look at our birthrates. We as cultures have to reform. The real nationalist fights for progress and understands that a crisis is only a chance.

@AgrivatedKillah A democratic republic is a democracy. Being a democracy doesn't mean that the country can't also be a republic. They surely aren't mutually-exclusive terms.

@aleksankazakov If you're speaking of the NDAA, then I learned last week that the bill has been passed, signed into law.

@Sismiques Very nice, but that really is only in theory. There's no guarantee that if militias won, then they'ld actually do as Lenin said.

@mikecorbeil And I've never heard or read of Russia committing bombings against its own citizens and of its own infrastructure for politically strategic purposes. Washington enjoys doing that though.

@mikecorbeil The videos on the OKC bombing that people can access through my channel weren't uploaded by me, so just look through the favorites group. It was a bombing blamed on the patsy and fall guy named Timonthy McVeigh, but while he did drive a truck of explosive cow manure there, he parked it in the street 90ft or more from the Murrah building. The destruction of the bldg, however, was from explosives planted inside the building; planted by the Feds.

Sounds good. The Ru. leader now needs to hold true to his words and make sure that what he says is what really happens. A united country is a stronger country than one that's divided. The USA is a strong example of a country with strong divisions among its citizens and this makes it extremely difficult to stop Washington's crimes against humanity, internationally as well as nationally.

Consider the OKC (Oklahoma City) bombing of 1995; committed by the Feds of the USA. See my channel for vids

@AustrianAtheist It isn't only true of Germans and other Eu. countries, as well as Russia, for the USA, Canada, and many other governments also "deny the problems of their" countries.

@AgrivatedKillah

Not really, it gives the states the right to a republican form of government, but the states can waive that right if they want to.

[Sismiques]

@aleksankazakov

Much of that is irrelevent legally speaking anyhow, Constitution is the supreme law.

"A people’s militia would mean education of the masses in the practices of democracy.

A people’s militia would mean government of the poor by the people themselves, chiefly by the poor, and not by the rich, not through their police.

A people’s militia would mean that control (over factories, dwellings, the distribution of products, etc.) would be real and not merely on paper."-Lenin
