конечно можно! и за это у тебя есть моя искренняя благодарность! Думаю, что только одному человеку, изучающему русский, не хочется, чтобы ты его исправлял. Не буду говорить имени, но можем звать его...

известно, ну и что? Я не понял, что ты хотел писать... Американцы делают вещи для нуждающихся, но не "просто так"?

You have now.[/quote]

When business comes to giving money, they do not.[/quote]
So you say that Americans do not donate money to charity?

Признаю, что перепутал, но я лишь хотел возразить против того, что США якобы осуществляло помощь, как они говорят: for free. I've never met American who will ever do anything for free. :)

And the...

Errr... now, really? References please, because the books I've read say something different.[/quote]

Долгосрочная задолженность СССР (по основному долгу) составляла 1,1 млрд дол.: 443 млн дол....

Errr... now, really? References please, because the books I've read say something different. Here are some excerpts from the web:

"Lend-Lease was the major United States program 1941-1945 which...

The one I was thinking about was: http://masterrussian.net/mforum/viewtop ... &start=405

But it is only 28 pages, I guess the Japanese thread has now surpassed that! :lol:

No not this one, we had a competition long ago and we came quite far (20+ I am sure)

Anyway, I am appalled at the knowledge of history on this forum. Everybody is politicizing every single action...

What are you smoking, Barm? I never posted that!

I am neither in the AF or Russian :) The Air Force is simply our customer :)

LOL, did you just call me a hippie or the US Strategic bombing survey? This hippie's ass is helping YOU in the Air Force, buster! :lol:

On topic, so we agree to disagree :)

babykiller!

No. You can not go from the supposition that a civilian is a potential military threat and therefore must be wiped out, that sounds a little like a moustached teetotal vegetarian in leather boots...

Uhh... what, why would more civilians die if we invaded Japan? Are you saying that the American soldiers would go and kill civilians?

70 000 killed instantly in Hiroshima alone. Similar number...

:lol: That's the first time I heard the term "innocent soldiers"! A soldier, by definition, can not be innocent! His main purpose, after all, is to kill.

But I understand your point, it was...

Actually, if I can dwell on that last point of yours. There is much debate on the necessity of dropping the Nagasaki and Hiroshima bomb. At that point in the war Japan was losing on all fronts:...

Bah, facts are always a nuisance. The history DID change, damn that wiki! So, after reading the article a little more nuance is provided.

"They [US Intelligence] were unaware that 12...

Cuban missiles vs. Turkey missiles. Do you guys even know your history or has it been rewritten since I last learned it?

The USSR was constructing missile sites in Cuba, but there were never any...

Oh yeah, that was when Bill Clinton sent a couple of cruise missles to try to take out Osama... It is all coming back to me!

What happened in 1998 in Afghanistan?

OK, Russki, so you agreed that being a communist doesn't mean you are a bad person. You are simply a person who strives for an ideal (a utopia). So why is the fact that Putin was a communist so bad? ...

a) that is not the soviet flag
b) why the hell not? Didn't Reagan stand next to Gorbachov? Doesn't that make him a communist too?

Thank you, kalinka. SOMEONE sums it up for the rest of us...

If it really did work, how come the Soviet Union collapsed?[/quote]

Well it didn't work for USSR, maybe it will work for Vietnam? Or...

That in itself is a bit of a simplification. He didn't veto a bill allowing the research, he vetoed a bill allowing federal funding for that research.[/quote]

True you are. The state of California...

Well, that is quite an oversimplifaction, young Jedi. He vetoed the bill that would allow stem cell research using live cells from embryos. The veto doesn't put any limitation on stem cell research...
