To my precious Jack:
So our extremely wise guy is back.
Finally.
You probably believe we were supposed to learn something from you. YOU???
To be a teacher implies knowing your subject.
If the world had the teacher like you...it's even horrible to imagine. You are no teacher to me.
You insist on our admitting mistakes but refuse to admit yours which are even worse.
You say we are stricken by propaganda, but your thinking (at least concerning Russia) is full of stereotypes).
The Russian army doesn't seek glory. It has got enough (hundred times greater than yours). This jump to the airport was to prove NATO wouldn't be too lonely out there.
Well "a bunch of hungry ex-communists" sounds cool enough. But one paratrooper (who should be starving,I suppose)with nothing but a grenade launcher on his shoulder stopped a group of British tanks when they tried to enter the airport by force, and they didn't have guts to move further and retreated.
So what are you talking about, Jackie. Haven't you understood that pouring mud onto others stains yourself?

When and where that free world has left dear Jack kicked to the roadside?
