About Chechya, and the other Caucus republics
Until relatively recently all we knew about them, is the home of the very brave warriors who served first the tsar's, later the Red Army. These are the lands of the Cosacks[sic].
 
Russian experts do not necessarily know much, outside of Russia. And while we know from news accounts that there is a separatist movement, we almost know jack and shit. So when we have all these experts coming out of the woodwork... Take that grain of salt.
 
I was tempted to re-read the chapters on that area in my History of Russia, but that book was written at the height of the Cold War....so, pretty useless, really.
 
That is all.

(For the record, I hope there are experts out there who are qualified, and do not have an axe to grind)

4. "Cossack" has nothing to do with "Caucasus"

The Cossacks were essentially Russian and other east slavic frontiersmen.

6. Only after Russians had subdued the Caucasian ethnic groups and settled in the area.
Think "Cossacks" = Indian fighters, and "Chechnyans, etc" = Indians.

8. Yes, I just made a simple point
Most Russian experts really know Butkus of it.

Russian historians don't usually claim to be football experts.

But I fear the experts that will surface

Just because you're an ignorant sloth, cousin dear, doesn't mean the rest of us are.

She took that course right after graduating from EOD training.  I know for certain that all of us, who actually *did* graduate from EOD training, had to take graduate level Russian history courses.

Hey gnads I knew the man that taught classes like that at Yale and GWU.http://www.yale.edu/opa/arc-ybc/v27.n26/story12.html He would have slapped you upside your misshapen head for spewing crap like that. Besides if you even made it into one of his classes he would have made you look like the fool you are then failed you.
Oh and he absolutely adored President Regan. :tongue:

Well, even as Nads can screw up a soup sandwich, she still knows more Russian history then I do. Never fear, I believe we will get a crash course in all the twists and turns in the politics of that part of the world.

Fox interviewed an older man that seemed to know a thing or two about history.  He, and I only caught the tail end of his views, believes America is a hot bed of sleeper cells from every country in the world.
For want of a better name Muslim Land.  

We are so ignorant of what is going on in other parts of the world, we have no power to stop Foreign Embassy's from printing false ID's or counterfitting our money. 

Big business in NYC for the young that have been here for only a few years to sell drugs to get money to buy arms to be sent to their so called Freedom Fighters over seas.

Some wealthy Americans will sponsor young men into the country, get them a job and charge them 25% of their  pay check------Always keeping hanging over the kids heads the threat of deportation.

They get iffy if their kids get friendly with Christians or American citizens as I found out when I had a young man bring his sponsor to visit me.   Very odd visit, up shot was I saw this young man just once more when he came to visit bringing gifts for hubby and I and said he was going home to Indonesia to become a Freedom Fighter. I was his American Mother so a hug was allowed.   

Strange world out there, one that Americans seldom see or interact with.   I am so relieved to be retired and not having to face 10 hours a day 5-6 days a week, interacting with people that for all I knew came from Mars.  Had it been just ONE ethnic group no problem but we had people from all over the world, all different with different traditions.   So much to learn the taboos of each culture especially for a female.

21. One would think that a poster suggesting

"Most Russian experts really know Butkus of it." is implying that they (the poster) does, and if so, surely some of that information the poster has would include the correct spelling of Caucasus - which in this case was incorrect in two different spots, and differently in each.
