Please make sense

Please try to make sense

Sucks e'hhh, that there are world leaders who do not answer to You (or 'Us')- rather the citizens of their own country, who's interests they stand up for.

1.Which explains why Vlad is far more popular with Russians than either trump or Biden with merkins, or any other western leader with the citizens of their Own country. That must hurt.
2.Of course, the fact that Vlad has exposed the US as an ineffectual, vacillating liar in it's so called War on Terror must hurt too- I hope it does anyway. Sick of being lied to by America.
3.While America as often as not helps arm and fund these fundamentalist Islamic terrorists, Vlad has been busy kicking their arse, in both Syria and Chechen. Go you good thing.
4.I would say Vlad is very dangerous indeed, if you are a Sunni terrorist. I'm sure they must hate Vlad too- just like the US foreign policy sector, who's hypocrisy he has exposed.

1.Considering Russians has a history of "must vote", 67% turn out at the last election is embarrassing. Imagine what Trump could have done if he would have controlled the media like Putin.
2.Most western media report "freely" on the War on Terror. The day Putin stops lying to his own people is the day he can tell us something we don't know.
3. True! Now imagine the U.S. could get rid of all the dirty lying Snowden's like Putin does. U.S. foreign affairs would read like Grimm's fairy tale.
4. Iran hates the U.S., now that's good news to me considering they are dictatorial like Russia. O.K. they are not Sunni's terrorist, but Shia is just as good.

Speaking of hypocrisy:

Putin’s billion-dollar palace shows ‘astonishing hypocrisy’ of regime – Russian opposition activist Vladimir Kara- Murza

At least Trump earned some of his money

What happened after 1999 ?

Between 2000 and 2008, the GDP grew by 83%, productivity grew by 70%, and expenses for accumulating fixed capital doubled in real terms. Whereas in 1999, per capita GDP by purchasing power parity (PPP) was $9,300 (only 25% above the global average), by 2008, this indicator had increased to $21,600 (78% above the global average). Russia's share in the world economy grew fourfold over the same period, from 0.6% to 2.7%. The welfare of the population increased considerably: real wages increased by 3.4 times, and real pensions increased by 2.8 times.

Putin identified what was wrong, had a plan and executed it.

Listen Skido or should I say Kiddo? You can post all the numbers and statistics you want. Fact is that Russia isn't there where it's supposed to be and never will be. Unless they get another Catherine the Great

What a fantastic piece of brown nosing. HooHoo will be so proud of you.

The fact that it's a crock of shit doesn't matter, it's the effort you put in to show you believe it all that counts.

IS didn't just "stop dead" you fucking ignoramus.

It took a slew of forces and military actions from Assad and the Russians, the SDF, the US, the Kurds and the Iraqis.

The US killed Baghdadi.

I'm surprised you don't know that, your beloved bald orange turd made a big thing about it, you witless twat.

Congratulations. You just said the dumbest thing that could possibly have been said on this topic.

The data is what determines where Russia should or shouldnt be. You utterly brainless fool.

Russia has the same GDP/PPP as Krautistan. The same GDP as California and Texas combined. Of course Russia has a ways to go per capita wise.

Russia is the second most immigrated to country in the world. But Herman the vermin says none of the data matters. Muh russia isn't where its supposed to be. What an idiot

And where are most of the immigrants coming from? Here's something you love, a C&P:

"As of June 2019, there are 10.13 million foreigners residing in the Russian Federation (up from 9.63 million in 2018 and 9.96 million in 2017), with the vast majority (85%) being citizens of CIS countries. Central Asians make up the most numerous group, followed by Ukrainian citizens. Temporary migration from Azerbaijan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan increased after a marked decline in 2015-2016. Two countries—Moldova and Ukraine—have steadily demonstrated a decrease in the number of migrants."

They're hardly flocking in from London, Paris and LA, are they?

And that's because everyone knows it's a corrupt, lawless shithole, which is why most Russians can't wait to get out of there to the west.

Yeah, because real life for the majority of the Russian population is spent on holiday in Sochi or taking pictures of Red Square, you moronic twat.

As we all know anyway, you're all mouth and wouldn't dream of giving up your comfortable middle class life in Canada for a dingy apartment in some grey Moscow tower block.

You'd be on the phone crying to mum and dad with your tail between your legs in no time.

He’s such a gullible consumer of google stupid. Giving Backspin internet access, is like giving your 12 year old the keys to your liquor cabinet and your Ferrari.

The US killed Baghdadi.

And a senior Iraqi General with him. Remind me never to invite the US to my Home, the party would bomb.

Julian Assange is in a maximum security prison right now for........................reporting on the Iraq war.

Julian Paul Assange (/əˈsɑːnʒ/;^[4] born 3 July 1971) is an Australian editor, publisher, and activist who founded WikiLeaks in 2006. WikiLeaks came to international attention in 2010 when it published a series of leaks provided by U.S. Army intelligence analyst Chelsea Manning.

After the 2010 leaks, the United States government launched a criminal investigation into WikiLeaks.^[7]

Except he isn't in a maximum security prison for reporting on the Iraq War. There are thousands of reporters who covered the Iraq War and didn't end up in prison, and why would they whereas Assange is?

Because they didn't steal and publish state secrets would be the main reason, you fucking clown.

Yea, we had this discussion before and Skidmark and Loondyke were so full of praise about everyone flocking to Russia . . . yet neither would live there

Again, stick to hookers and selling drugs on the darl web . . . at least you're vaguely amusing. Not what you write, rather what a weak mind finds that fulfilling

Ah yes. Russia's GDP is smaller than the US's. Its just not as small as Americans are continually brainwashed into believing. The brainwash says that Russia's GDP is 1.5 trillion or something. Which would put it 11th or 12th in the world. Russia is a non dollar economy, so you cant use nominal GDP to measure it. You will only get Russia's exports.

But we can verify that this is bullshit by looking at other economic data.

Military spending 4th
Forex reserves 5th
Gold reserves 5th
Oil consumption 5th
# of billionaires 4th Forbes Top 10 Billionaire Cities - Moscow Beats New York Again
Remittances 4th


PPP GDP says 6th
Nominal GDP says 12th

So its pretty easy to see which number is the right one. Not hard to see

Wondering why all shops in Pattaya, Phuket, etc, have their sideboards written in Russian Language? (perhaps for Martians?)

I'm challenging an IMBECILE that can't google, read and probably not even write. Now if you don't want to make a complete fool of yourself sit down, do your homework, come back to me and apologize, and we can continue.

I will give you a small hint since I'm a good teacher:
1.be careful what you read at Wikipedia
2.get your stats from real and not predicted source. DOUBLE CHECK!!!
3. here comes the hardest part for you ...use common sense
4. be real and don't get influenced by national feelings or heritage. Running around like an American claiming "We are the greatest,strongest, bless us", will only blind you.

Good Luck! You got 24 hours!

Klondyke and Deeks sure must be happy that skidmark is here to make them not look the most retarded posters on TD.
