Russia is still technically a threat

yes, you are quite right there old chap. A year of Fench while living in Tynemouth in the 7th grade & two years of German in High School here in the states and I can hardly speak of word of either. English is hard enough for me

You roooooski barbarians been hangin with Genghis (who sold out to the russian mafia) too long. Guilt by assosciation.

Can anyone explain me what did he mean? Who are "Genghis"? Maybe he meant "gremlins"?

Funny to hear things about lack of order in Russian army from a representative of a nation that regulary "looses" H-bombs from their aircrafts.

All the prophets agree, your weapons in towelhead hands will be the end of civilization. Yer gonna be the death of all us free-thinking tree-huggin pasty skinned replublicrats. The end is near..

Please, I don't understand modern American slang. You mean that Mohammed said that we will give our weapons wrapped in towels to someone at the end of civilisation? Or did you mean Nostradamus? The next sentence is even more puzzling: who is going to be a death to whom? "Yer" is an old Cyrrilic letter, "hard sign", no sound - used only to show that consonant is proounced in a "hard" way. I bet it simply can't do any harm to anyone who knows Russian phonetics. Why does a pale/swollen skinned man hug a tree? Maybe something about an environment and ecology? Is he expressing his freedom of thought by embracing a plant? "Replublicrat" must be a neologism of mixed Greek-Latin origin, meaning something like person engaged in republican lubricant power? Or maybe "repetitive lubricants", something that relates with sexual activities? Hmmm... Maybe that's why he embraces the tree?... Can anyone explain?

Hangtime

Somebody used yer ex-USSR weapons price list as a BBQ napkin or wrapped some fish in it. Last time I checked it was one flight (with FREE landing) quoted for about 5000.

Boroda

Towelhead is easy - someone who wears towel around his head. In this context not a woman probably. "Genghis" is something I have no idea of.

А вообще я думаю он издевается.

[Hangtime]

Well; hell, comrade... are you 'sshh' from sunnyvale, or 'boroda' from moscow?

....and how do you spell potato?

...who won the world series?

...who's really running the Khanate?

Oh... btw... this one I'll give you:

 

"Replublicrat" must be a neologism of mixed Greek-Latin origin, meaning something like person engaged in republican lubricant power? Or maybe "repetitive lubricants", something that relates with sexual activities?  

Best descriptive I've seen yet.

Hehehhehheee

I've been reading this message board ever since September 11.  I have no idea how this started, but why the hell is everyone here bound and determined to jump all over Boroda?  I've read many of these threads and he has not said anything that makes me want to treat him this way.  Yes, he is defending Russia, but why shouldn't he?  He is Russian.  I would too if I were Russian.

 

Glad to hear I can't buy an armed and fueled SU-27 for 5k anymore.

Yeah, so?  You can buy an F-16 straight from Lockheed (minus weapons and any other classified stuff).  Its just a plane, though a tad expensive.  Two people in the world have bought T-38 Talon trainers.  I know, there was one at my company getting painted.

Why the hell is everyone at each others throats?  To quote a famous fighter pilot jargon, WTF....over?

Boroda, you do not speak perfect English.  That much I understand.  Ok.  "Towelhead" = Muslim.  Their turbans, or whatever the name is for their head gear.  Its not meant to be polite.  It is the same as calling a black man a "cupcake".  Your likely going to have to flee for you life if you do say that to somebody directly.

 

as for America and the Americans i thought you got your "New WAR" already .. so now lash out on anyone whou could "still technically maybe probably be a threat" eh ?

I won't.  As for the "New War".....I will gladly give it to somebody else if they want it, because I sure as hell don't want it at all.  Not one diddlying bit.  We ARE getting paranoid.  Anthrax in the mail, planes crashing into our buildings, another alert today about a threat, but no information on what or where it will come from.  How the diddly are we supposed to do anthing about that?  Who the hell can prepare for.....well, whatever your imagination can dream up.  I've thought of all the worst things that I could do to the country if I were a terrorist, and the list is pretty damn big.

Hans.

I really enjoy the Western view on Russia. Looks like that journalists still believe that all Russians wear fur-hats, drink vodka instead of water, adress each other as "comrade" (just watch "Enemy at the gates") all the time and every male has a long beard. Russian nuclear weapons are all painted khaki and have red stars on every side. The usual way to fix them must be a crawbar and a sledgehammer.

Oh, god, Boroda, that was choice.  Really had me laughing  

[sling322]

Wow Duck...you're from Austria....well then.  G'day mate!!!  

[-ammo-]

The russians and their neighbor states still have resources that make them a potential threat to the USA and <insert USA ally>. I assure you that the DOD and the intel community within the USA still believe and understand this.  The Russians still have a powerful nuclear navy as well.

[Boroda]

Hehe   I was kidding, sorry  

"Genghis" must be Ghengis-Khan, Chingiz-Khan (Чингиз-Хан , but I really didn't understand what Hangtime tried to say. What did he sell to Russian mafia? Was there already Russian mafia in XIII century? Who's guilt by what assosiation? How could Russians hang with Chingiz-Khan when he never was in Russia, only sent his warlord Subudai-Bagatur in 1226, and then his son Batiy invaded Russia in 1237 after Chingiz was dead? The whole history of a Mongol "invasion" is very interesting. I tried to find any source about it, and I simply love Mongols and their philosophy of life, that deserves to be called "prehistoric existancialism".

LtHans, I am not surprised by the reaction on my posts, I provoke such reaction deliberatly   It's very funny to provoke people like Eagler or Hangtime, they are simply great! Other people, like Toad, usually answer with tons of usefull and interesting information, definetly worth it.

Now about paranoia: we had all kinds of this in Russia after 1999 Chechen bombings. The problem is that it ended too soon. Now there is again no problem to set up bombs. Paranoia burned out really quickly.

Ammo, let's change sides, and it will sound like "Americans and their neighbor states still have resources that make them a potential threat to the Russia and <insert Russia's ally>. And they have proved this many times in the last 10 years. How about such a view?

gee i live a lot closer and i'm not scared.

Well, if you saw the news last night, I guess paranoia is prevelent right up to the white house, as Bush addressed the leaders of 59 nations in the very-potential scenario of terrorists using nuclear weapons.
