Excellent. Another point to grasp is that the Banksters do not want a true capitalism, where inefficiency fails, & competition trims profits.
They want what we now have in the West : a crony corporatist state, where ever fewer giant globalist multinationals dominate both commerce & countries, pay no taxes, to the benefit of their CEOs , shareholders & their banksters.
In short, effectively, a Fascism.

Putin is not a bad man?!?

President Putin is probably the Greatest World Leader for a long long time!

What religious cult do you belong to? Divorce is evil!

Divorce is a personal thing. No-one has the right to criticise a couple's actions.
It is none of our business.

A real man a great leader, a blessing to Russia thank god for Russia and Putin.

The Orthodox allow, I believe, two divorces in their religion. Putin said at the time of his divorce that he was too busy running the government, that it was not fair to his wife to be tied to him when he was seldom there for her.

Great honesty there! Unlike the US goofball who has gone through 3 wives and belittled each one....including cheating on them...the important thing is honesty and Putin has it, the other one does not..

Do not play the man, stay with playing the ball.

It could well be a pretend divorce to protect the wife. Even if not, it's not evil when things do not work out. This is not the Middle Ages.

His"divorce"? Seriously?

Some religious beliefs disapprove of divorce, such as conservative Catholicism. I'm not religious myself but I respect people's right to have that viewpoint. Some people also don't approve of divorce. People in Asian countries, for example, disapprove.

Even within conservative Catholicism, if a marriage is not blessed by the Church, divorce is accepted. Civil marriages are not considered sacramental, and therefore can be annulled. I read somewhere that the Putins' marriage had not been blessed by the Russian Orthodox Church. If this is incorrect, perhaps someone could correct me. However, this wouldn't be surprising considering that the Church was under much greater constraints at the time of their marriage, and perhaps the Putins came to their faith later on, and just never had their marriage formally blessed.

Didn't they get married during the times of the Communist Soviet Union and a time when the Russian Orthodox Church was weak, owing to the ideology of the day?

I like the fact they both came away respecting each other, which says so much.

Yes, they were married under in the Soviet era. I'm glad they still respect each other, too, but the picture taken at the time makes my heart hurt for them so much. They went through a lot together.

and then there are those who are slaves to their religions...how terribly sad!

Yes, and Russia has actually been making efforts to keep the dollar afloat, because they know the US hegemons will get even nastier of their precious dollar becomes worthless. Their goal isn't to integrate Ukraine into the EU. They want to create a failed state on Russia's border, and also hopefully engage them militarily in Syria and in places like Chechnya.

let's just wait and see if and when that ever happens! the US has been spooked by Russia and is now very timid about getting aggressive militarily...the US will work on the economics of a nation to bring it down...along with themselves!

I've heard tell...Russia's central banking institution does not belong to the state. Does this sound familiar? I do not believe that the international banking system give two turds about the affairs of Russia, unless...Russia moves to control it's own central bank, then there would be real war.
Bankers have no allegiance except to money!

It is headed by Chicago-school wannabes who follow the dictates of a banking system aimed at preversving the US banks at the expense of their onw country's economy.

Nabuliana (sp ?), the head of the Russian CB, knows she is on borrowed time but still keep favoring the US over Russia.

The say a rat that is cornered can be very viscous, that's the US.

What is it they also say about dying Empires. The US did not retain Empire status for long, when you look at Russia and China, they are just a toddler on the block?

Oh? Violent too....

Thank you, my bad.

I don't think viscous is the word you want....

You are quite right, I am German and "vicious" and "viscous" totally different meanings. Sorry, my bad

No problem. English isn't the easiest language in the world..

True, it is a very difficult language to learn. It has been said that the English language is the bastard offspring of a drunken Norman lord and a Saxon barmaid. ;-) Probably not too far off the mark.

It is also a very rich language, and not without it's beauty. As an American who has studied Spanish, Korean and German, I am always impressed with the many non-native English speakers who speak our language so well. Including dixi3150.

i am filipino myself and grew up speaking english about as early as my native language and dialects since my mom was also a college teacher , englsh and lterature being one of those classes she taught ...so she insisted we not only read a lot -- but to use english properly - at least that's how i was really brought up..(doesn't show here of course, but i've gotten really lazy, so , sorry) ...

and naturally --i've a bias of my own owing to that and think that english is a beautiful language. particularly when it's spoken by the british. i like the way they enunciate with more definition in the syllables than americans do. and when it's spoken that way , it takes one the poetic quality , imo...

and when the writing is - say , as richly descriptive as that by hmmmm..

someone like JRR TOLKIEN in his 'lord of the rings'' -- oh my gosh -- you begin to really see how beautiful and moving the language can be.

Exactly right. Tolkien was a MASTER....

Obviously, you haven't heard all the English "accents" , or you would change your mind!

Like Joyce, Yeats, Swift, Shaw, Brindsley Sheridan, Wilde and Co?
The worst murderers if English are the Yanks, followed by the English themselves.

German is an exact language and a beautiful language.
It is the mirror of the German Culture and their people. Yes means yes, no means no.
Reliable, trutsworthy, quality.

We all know the more than hundred years old Mark on items: Made in Germany. Means: you bought top quality.
Like their automobiles, trustworthy and quality.

Mrs Merkel has since twelve years the unstoppable edginess bringing Germany economically into the abyss.

try to learn Portuguese - english is easy.

speaking of languages , which : someone told me -- a french literature and language professor from the french INSTITUTE of Letters :

she joked as she was giving me basics of french once time...

'FRENCH has many rules, ,and then there are the many exceptions to the rules and then there are the exceptions to the exceptions to the rules".

hehe...and THEN someone else sad that is an ENGLISH literature professor told me:

french is full of exceptions and exceptions and inconsistencies -- but english is even MORE so...
hehe.

Very interesting perspective.
I'm very curious to hear western comments on Russian conspiracy theories that Fed already owns Russia and current straggle is a straggle for independence. It seems wild but for people who view Federal Reserve Bank as a direct enemy of humanity it doesn't seem very far-fetched.

WHEN PUTIN WAS ELECTED PRESIDENT of Russia in 2000, Russia was bankrupt. The nation owed $16.6 billion to the Rothschild-run International Monetary Fund while its foreign debt to the Rothschild-controlled Paris & London Club Of Creditors was over 36 billion dollars.

But Putin took advantage of the current boom in world oil prices by redirecting a portion of the profits of Russia’s largest oil producer Gazprom so as to pay off the country’s debt. The continual surge in oil prices greatly accelerated Russia’s capacity to restore financial sovereignty.

By 2006 Putin had paid off Russia’s debt to the Rothschilds. Russia’s financial dependence on the Mafia financiers was now over. I doubt they've gotten another hold since then.

You need to understand that President Putin's divorce is a private matter. In the Anglo World they stick their nose into these private matters but in Russia they do not. Who knows; there have been people who got divorced so the spouse would not cop it in the event of big problems. They even got married again later on. The Anglo World is also dumb, always behaving as if the removal of ONE man would cure something, e.g. Saddam, Gaddafi, Assad - nah. Or take Myanmar; if only the lady (whose name I cannot spell) would rule the country, everything would be fine. Nah - she's extremely racist and will not utter the name of one tribe 'Rohingyas'.

There is definitely a campaign against Russia and President Putin. For Germany it's the

Atlantik-Brücke which steers the press, in Australia the Australia-American Leadership Dialogue, something else in the other countries, just like the late Brian Crozier masqueraded as a journalist but was CIA funded. The campaign needs to be ignored although it is really peculiar that Bush Sr. was fine as CIA chief, and Putin as KGB officer was not. I'ts just the usual American double standards.

(I think) .... Putin's divorce is not yours to wonder about or criticise.
'Sides, he said, at his last Q&A, he gets on better with his ex now than he did when he was married. That should be good enough for you.

I THINK the time has come for RUSSIA to play HARDBALL with teh us gov and cia, nsa. etc...

and that is to OPENLY , REPEATEDLY -- RIGHT AT THE LEVEL OF UN AND INTERNATIONAL FORUMS - RIGHT INTO any ''talks" between EU/WEST/ and relations with other nations

always INCLUDE , INSERT -- part of discussions -- teh CIA/US GOV /ENTITIES

attempts against russia.

MAKE IT very prominent that it can NOT be ignored no matter what the USA TRIES...

in order to puit FRONT AND CENTER in the world the attention on THE CIA.

don't let it remain ''incidental" topic to ''major issues"

rather -- make it A CENTRAL topic in every instance and keep throwing t at the USA so that all international meetings ALWAYS bring up

\
USA/CIA - USA,/CIA -- sabotage -- oh yet again another CIA operation in macedonia, oh another one in cnetral asia...etc....

let us remember --

2 cia emplyed ''pschiatrist/psychologists" who took care of the ''methodology" of CIA TORTURE are right now being sued in a US court that is forced to open hearings -- on the suit by former tortured detainees...

the PORTUGUESE AMERICAN woman - SOUSA -- is ordered to appear in an ITALIAN COURT to face her charges for conspiracy to kidnap, rendition , torture the arab/italian citizen

more and more will come, that is inevitable and the CIA ought to be BROUGHT BEYOND just ''topic of discussion" --but as the DEEP STATE that it is -- out into the open -- calling out, searchng out its operatives, officers, policy makers, amerifcan officials -- that' sort of thing...and the only way to do that is make it a WORLD GLOBAL CAUSE TO BRING UP in all matters of international governance and relations -- in press conferences...assemblies, treaties, etc...

IT IS THE DESTINY OF THE CHOSEN PEOPLE TO RULE THE EARTH!!!!!!!!
WHO ARE YOU TO ARGUE WITH G-D???????!!!!!!!!!!!!

THERE IS NO PLACE AMONG THE LIVING FOR AMELEK RUSSIA

There's no place here for rude S_BS who shout at people!

When people behave like that, and one can see similar things on many networks, they confirm that they know they are in a losing position. When you win, when you're strong, when you have the arguments and facts on your side, you do not need to shout, you do not need to call people names. The insecurity of their position makes them jittery.

Actually, it ISN'T, so отвяжись пизда!!!

He actually said ten years - - and that was about four years ago. Not long to go!

yeah, Talmudists have sacrificed the J-e-w-s so many times and J-e-w-s still do not get it that _h0l0c0st_ = burnt offering or blood sacrifice of their masters to their "god". As POZ states: "we sacrifice our own" (when agenda requires)

The eternal Jew eh, the swine live on and on
