 >>> Part 1 of 2...

Hello Alexander.   How are things doing in Russia today.?

Today everyone is thinking green and wearing green and trying
to make themselves as Irish as they can to help celebrate
St. Patrick's Day...

 -=> Quoting Alexander Koryagin to Peter Coggon <=-

 AK> [Skipped]
 PC>   Britain forgot that in America during the War for Indepedence 1776
 PC> USSR forgot that too, how her people fought back and died, and the
 PC> USA forgot, the lesson of 1776, as well, WW2 and vietnam.

 AK> You have written "she" as if "USSR" belongs to feminine gender. Is it
 AK> really so in English?

  Interesting point ... Storms are given names, and referred to as 
"she" or "her" in the correct manner inwhich they are used, in text
or speech.   Also ships are referred to as "her" "she" the "motherland"

Point also that other nations refer to the homeland as the "Fatherland".
 
 PC>   Well they did support the first days, and when US entered Baghdad.,
 PC> But then they also said their thank yous, and hinted they should leave,
 PC> and a arab government would takeover...the USA refused this arab
 PC> comment which they heard a lot.  So now they are in a civil war
 PC> getting more soldiers killed and no way out, as arabs fight to
 PC> takeover Iraq with their own ideas, and one of their views is
 PC> USA OUT!

 AK> Yes, many hated Saddam so much that they danced when he was toppled by
 AK> Americans. But they not going to go in the direction pointed by the
 AK> US. Kurd it is true quite loyal to Americans; they hope to gain
 AK> independence. But it is illusion; Turkey will never admits creation of
 AK> kurdish state near own border.

  Agreed.  Arab is Arab, and why change after so many centurys?
It means a possible change in their culture and possible their religion
or bring questions that might change that religious belief.  All so
complex.   They are not going the vision the USA has for them, as
their culture is many years removed from that in the US.

Yes correct. Turkey will never allow a Kurdish state so close to them.
Even with the pressure of NATO..actually the USA...No way.

 AK> What about of demolision of Dresden? The Americans plains deliberately
 AK> targeted residential arias. It was the act of creating terror among
 AK> all Germans.

  Thats because one side upped the conduct of the war, in regards
to International agreements.

 AK> The region certainly was not as the Australian desert with some
 AK> Bedouins & camels.

   Sammuel Clements  < Mark Twain> was there and described it as
very rural with really nothing there but religious sites.

 AK> There were millions of people there. Actually it was
 AK> a decision of the religious group to enter in and fight for promised
 AK> land. What they counted for? Did they think that the war will not take
 AK> place?

   I think they did know there would be trouble, first with the British
who had control, and then afterwards the surrounding Arab countrys.
But this was a offshoot of the Jewish religion.   They eventually
got their way, and today many Jewish people, and Arab people are
working behind the scenes to try work a holding peace...but not
with the militant sect..which would mess up their teachings and beliefs.

Afterall ...peace was with one Arab country..with more coming, and
that is proof that it can happen, and it only happened because
the Zionists were not innvolved.   There is now even more crazy
sects out there....as can be seen on the news.
 
 AK>>> ancient ones (to conquer Palestine as God-promised land) they must,
 AK>>> to be successful, to repeat all actions which were done in the Bible.
 AK>>> I mean to slaughter all enimies by order from heaven after the
 AK>>> conquest.
 
   I don't think so.    If so, then the prisons would be empty.
 
 AK> To build the state as mighty as David'd kingdom you need to be God'd
 AK> prophet and anointed one. You have to have direct link with God, and in
 AK> this case you and several dosens people will be able to defeat enormous
 AK> army. But if somebody pretends to be a prophet he can plunge his own
 AK> people into the bottomless bog. And it is suddenly occured that, in
 AK> reality, he is not able to go on water or separates it.

   Well we have historically had lots of want to be humans claiming
to be devine, and look where that has ended up.  WW2 is  a great
example.
 
 AK> Some Russians may be. For example I searched for a place to practice
 AK> my English and had found in Russian Fidonet the only live echo for this
 AK> purpose. This one. I really want to improve my English. I have a dream
