International reactions to the attack, in which some 10 people were injured, suggest that the United States and the Council of Europe are unconvinced by Georgian officials' attempts to offload the entire responsibility for the ongoing stalemate on to Russia, and hope to pressure Tbilisi to adopt a more conciliatory stance toward its two breakaway regions.

This ancient Chechen caution, which in opinion of some researchers, is an echo of the certain ancient knowledge and experience of Chechens, as well as possible approaches that have gone through USA in the last some weeks. Hollywood repeatedly amused imagination of spectators to colourful films, in which perish cities and the nations. But the reality,as seems, has surpassed the most courageous imaginations of the Hollywood directors, writes the newspaper "the Russian messanger" in connection with events in USA.

All this together is called reserve. Precept only one: "do not kill"! ( V.Vysotsky. "Reserve"). 400 inhabitants of Kabardino-Balkariya have written the letter to Putin that they are going to leave the Native land and leave for a constant residence for other countries. Last ten years the Russian authorities assured the public that the situation on Northern Caucasus is normalized, and Kabardino-Balkariya, by their words, in general is a sample of rest and stability, some kind of reserve where the sun always shines, all is good and everyone is happy. And now it is found out, that it is far from being so, and paradise life for inhabitants of this republic only appeared on a paper and in heads of inhabitants of the Kremlin. Those who slightly understand political life of North-Caucasus republics , already for a long time named Kabardino-Balkariya not island of ... >> full

October, 7, 2005 Turkish gambit Turkey is humiliated. In streets of turkish cities appeared the slogans against the entry into EU. Of course! According to world news agencies, Kondolisa Rais has persuaded the Austrian nationalists from the government in Vienna to sell Turkey for Croatia. Have sold. Now a question lays on Turks. Will they even want to become a part of the united Europe for such price?! About 80 percents of the Austrians oppose the acceptance of Turkey in the European Community. Such are the data of sociological interrogations. The last. But there is also previous. The huge quantity of Germans, Spaniards, British and other residents of EU also do not wish to see Turks in the family of European peoples.

Soviet. Now Turks are necessary only for Kondolisa Rais. For United States. By ... >> full
