And then that's the problem isn't it; your political bent demands that you believe that.
Duh

Another non-debate post... In the DEBATE POLITICS forum.
Are you saying the Syrian Civil War is Russia's "new Afghanistan"?

SMH they will always be the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics.
If America changed its name tomorrow to let's say the confederate sates of America. They will still be the USA.
Hell Germany changed their flag not even they name after the evils Hitler brought so I guess there is no longer any Nazi's over there? A name and flag change does not erase your history. Russia might be fooling you but not me.
I doubt the US would change their name unless some drastic political change came about. The Soviet Union was disestablished, Russia is its primary successor state, but it's not the USSR. Plus, what is this claim you're making about Germany? Are you saying Germany should have changed their name? Are you familiar with the historical Denazification process that took place in Germany? You seem to have assumed Germany is still Nazi Germany. But it is not. It was once, but no longer. You have to remember that.
Well it's not like Russia is losing in Afghanistan. The regime has largely defeated its opposition; the Kurds are weaker. All parties have had to accept a certain amount of Turkish presence and America is not so engaged anymore. I'd say Putin's happy with his goals: client state propped up; free world given a stiff middle finger. Knocked out a few Islamists to boot. Mission accomplished.
Oh yeah how is our 20 year war going?
Thanks for the reply. My most grateful respectful response to you... Is bla bla bla... They are the ussr. And never mind the Germany reference you don't seem to understand.
Sorry, it's difficult to understand exactly what you mean... But it seemed like you were saying Germany "didn't even change their name" after the "evils Hitler brought". Obviously, there are still Nazis in Germany, but you seemed to be suggesting Russia was still Communist and comparing Germany to it, and so you were saying Germany was still run by Nazis, or something...? Well, probably you weren't saying that, but that's how it came across...SMH they will always be the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics.

I will always refer to Mother Russia as the U.S.S.R.
So, you said:

Anyway, I do actually agree with you that Russia has failed to become a democracy. But they're not the USSR anymore, just the successor state.
