Again, it would explain so much.

Just more mystery really - she said she had/has a Polish father who had a harrowing experience in that part of the world, escaped imprisonment. Why he imparted a love of Russia on his daughter is not clear to me.

Crap. I have Polish grandparents. Does that mean I am genetically programmed to find Putin faultless?

Wait wait wait.... Putin was mentioned... I suddenly have a pressing need to change the tooic...

The US sucks! Ukraine sucks! Europe sucks! What, were we talking about Russia? Who cares, it doesn't matter. The US suuuuuuuucks!!!!

Yeah this video has played big on Russian media, and Putin himself has spoken in line with it, referring to the Ukrainian army as, absurdly, a NATO foreign legion. Interesting to see how in-step Russian media is with the official Kremlin talking points.

As for the psycho-analysis of Signy, like most Western communists she has a residual affection for Mother Russia... and she's never forgiven the US for winning the Cold War against them. I imagine the resurgence and re-assertiveness of Russia under Putin, along with its extreme anti-US rhetoric, has probably inspired and energised her in ways she's not felt since the Cold War... I bet she and Kiki have never felt so alive in years.

It's not personal. It's just war.

Aw, c'mon, you know better than that! I've been saying the US sucks since WELL BEFORE Ukraine ever came on the scene!

Why? you might ask?

Because the US sucks, that's why! My message hasn't changed in 10 years*. But you were all OK with that when GWB was president. Then Obama won the elections, and suddenly your reaction turned about 180 degrees. Now, all of the sudden, it's all about Russia, and you can't think of anything else and you assume non one else can either.

*That's why all of your psychobabble is so much psychobabble. Since you can't account for what I was saying 10 years ago ... and it hasn't really changed... you really can't account for it at all. HINT: It's not about Russia, and it's definitely not about Putin. But, again, that's all you can seem to think of!

Once again, siggy proves that she doesn't hear a thing anyone is saying, except Russian ditto-heads.

1) No one denies that in many ways the US sucks. This is well documented, though you choose not to see it.
2) The US sucking does not mean that Russia does not suck.
3) Discussion of the ways that Russian sucks is not a statement of the US's perfection, though you seem to take it as such.
4) Any attempt to discuss Russia with you turns immediately to "WAAAAH the US SUUUUCKS!" Inevitable conclusion: your hatred of the US is what you use to stay in denial of anything critical of your Beloved Mother Russia and Precious Pappa Putin.

QED. For the thousandth time LOL!

Not an Australian that is for sure. I think it's a European. Maybe English is the lingua franca of a volunteer force made up of many nationalities.

The other idea I had - especially about the guy saying 'outa my face' - it's quite common for people to use American phrases even when they don't speak much English because of the prevalence of (cough*American Cultural Imperialism*cough) American movies and tv. something I've noticed in non English speaking countries - they shout phrases at you and one another, even in accent, like that guy.

I went to school with a bunch of Ukranian descended kids, and wouldn't be surprised if there was a contingency that went over to fight. Fiercely nationalistic and in that era loathed the soviets. But yeah, the ones of video were not Australians.

Yanno, when I said the same thing before our invasion of Afghanistan, (and I realize that this was before FFF.net on another board in a galaxy far away) people were convinced ....convinced, I tell you!.... that I was a Taliban or al Qaida sympathizer. SO convinced, they got the webmaster to give my particulars to the FBI, which got me followed for a couple of days.

Then, when I said the same before the invasion of Iraq, some people were convinced that I was a naive tool of liberalism, if not an out-and-out-supporter of Saddam Hussein.

Same thing with Sudan and Libya.

Now that I point out our meddling and imperial plans in Ukraine... oh, and Russia and China too... people think I'm fixated on Putin. Because the USA is behind the putsch in the Ukraine, and is using it as an excuse to whittle away at Russia, we can add Ukraine to our "failed state" belt notches. We're willing to fight Russia to the last Ukrainian solder and to the last hrvnya, it seems.

The reason why I say America sucks is because American sucks. We have turned more nations into failed states than any other empire in the world. That's not a record to be proud of. Maybe in ten years, when all of the emotion has died down somewhat, Ukraine will look very much like what it is: one more USA-sponsored implosion in a long chain of related implosions.

"Outta my face" is not common slang in the US with the exception of the East Coast, and there I would say it's not modern day use, more in older films and tv. Maybe this guy was a Soprano's fan?

Maybe south african, but I'd still bet they were european. The first guy had a slight soprano type accent, so you might be on the money witht that one.
