    no definetly not russian, probably... latvian.. and the only major encounter i know of between Latvians and Germans is known as "Christmas Battle" where approx 4 out of 5 latvians were casualties and MIA
    The US will gladly step up to become the world police when there is oil involved, yet they will resign the second there is a genocide in Africa, a slaughter in an allied nation, or a massacre committed by dictators, all who's nations have nothing to offer, but the gratitude of the people to the international community for reaching out.
