Why Is Russia So Dangerous? by irririchris(m): 7:29pm On Feb 20, 2017 |
The size of Russia is bigger than that of Pluto. If Siberia were a country, it would be the third largest in the world. Russia stretches about 10000 km east to west, which is almost three times the diameter of the moon, one-and-a-half times the diameter of mars and just 2000 kms short of earth’s diameter. Russia’s total natural resources are valued at USD 75 trillion. Russia has the largest reserves and is the largest exporter of natural gas. It has the second largest coal reserves, the eighth largest oil reserves and is the largest exporter of oil in the world. Russia is a leading producer of copper, fluorspar, iron ore, lime, gold, magnesium compound and metals, mica, cobalt, aluminum, asbestos, arsenic, cadmium, coal, cement, boron, bauxite, vanadium, titanium sponge, tin, tungsten, potash, sulfur, silicon, rhenium, steel, pig iron, nickel, palladium, phosphate, petroleum, nitrogen, peat and oil shale. Russia has 40% of world’s gold reserves. 20% of the global production of industrial grade diamonds and 25% of global gemstone production come from Russia. 11% of the global aluminum market is controlled by just one Russian company, Rusal. Russia has more than a fifth of the world's forests. About one-fifth of the timber in the entire world is present in the forests of Siberia. If you laid the oil and gas pipelines of Russia around the equator, it would encircle earth 6 times. Only one lake of Russia, Lake Baikal has 20 percent of entire fresh water in the world. Russia has 4 of the 10 largest rivers in the world. Russia’s top 20 billionaires have a combined wealth of about USD 250 billion, which is more than the GDP of 150 individual countries in the world. Russian inventions include transformer, helicopter, video-tape recorder, synthetic rubber, grain harvester, electrical telegraph, arc welding, radiator, powdered milk and thousands of other things without which life would be very different today. Russia has the largest number of nuclear weapons in the world. Russia's RS-24 Yars Intercontinental Ballistic Missile (ICBM) has ten independently targetable nuclear warheads, which can reenter earth's atmosphere at hypersonic speeds at around 5 miles a second. Russia has the largest atomic bomb - Tsar Bomb, which was detonated way back in 1961. Russia is Not dangerous. It is FORMIDABLE. Written by Rahul Shrivastava, Ambassador of India to Venezuela.

Truly formidable. its no secret that some element in the West have been eyeing with pulsating greed the vast natural resources spread across Russia, especially in Siberia. Some have even stated that it isn't fair Russia owns all that natural resources alone. Now, you know what drives the hate-Russia club of mendacity. 8 Likes 1 Share |

I couldn't argue then because he was far ahead in education. But there was something I red about the incoming of 1st PUTIN in Russia, how he turned things around and made Russia great again.

Also worthy of mention is Ramzan Kadyrov - The President of the Chechen region in Russia & his 50,000 + highly lethal & effective death squad popularly known as the - Kadyrovites - always at Russia’s disposal. These same elite commandos routed the Georgian army, and also the Ukrainian military. They are rumored to have participated in the liberation of Aleppo too. https://www.rt.com/news/375551-chechen-soldiers-patrolling-aleppo/ We all know how Ramzan Kadyrov has been pressing Vladimirovich Putin and Sergei Shoigu (Russian Defense Minister) to let him unleash his “Death Squad” on the CIA/Mossad terrorists in Syria. He even went personally to the Kremlin and offered his resignation in early 2016 because he was upset that he was constantly told to postpone sending the Kadyrovites into Syria - but Putin did not accept his resignation however. And when he was finally allowed to send his elite combatants into Syria; they, alongside - Hezbollah, SAA & the Tiger forces went on a rampage and annihilated all resistance in Aleppo like cockroaches. When hostilities first broke out in the Donbass/Ukraine, the people and militias of the Donbass were taking a shellacking ; until the Kadyrovites arrived and the tide was quickly turned in their favor. The Battle of Donesk Airport was another glaring example as the Ukrainian Army took a severe beating and ran leaving behind their guns, feeding bottles & slippers. Hahahahahahhahaaa! Also at the Battle of Debaltsevo where a Ukrainian armored division was annihilated by the newly organized Donbass militia’s and the elite Kadyrovites. My most sincere prayer is for Amerika to make a mistake of going to war with Mother Russia so that she could be bombed SWIFTLY back to the stone age. Pic 1: Ramzan Kadyrov with our saviour - Putin Pic 2: Ramzan Kadyrov & his Kadyrovites. Pic 3: Ramzan Kadyrov chilling & rolling on his Rolls Royce ghost Pic 4: Ramzam Kadyrov thinking about the next Amerikan to kill. 6 Likes 2 Shares

blueAgent: The same satanic elites that want Amerika & NATO to oust Bashar Al-Assad in order to balkanize Syria by all means - and at the same time also supporting Russia for fighting Amerika & NATO (through proxy) to protecting the Assad's regime. Does that make any sense to you? Russia & Amerika are strictly pursuing their interests in Syria which by the way are parallel. 8 Likes 2 Shares |

Zoharariel:Prophet Zoharariel and the Ijebu spiritual centre of Kaliningrad! My prayer is, after the exit of Putin, somebody like Kadyrov shouldn't take over the Kremlin otherwise, all hell would break lose. The man is just too nationalistic to my liken and wouldn't mind occupying Kiev in 3 hours . Nonetheless, he is a strong character that aptly defines the true Russian spirit of patriotism. 8 Likes 2 Shares |

blueAgent: What a babel! Even Western scholars are now in awe and shock that Russia is now the defender of today's Christianity. Maybe you have forgotten that Russia has always been an unrepentant defendant of Orthodox Christianity right from the 18th century till date. Go and check the reason why Russia/Soviet Union entered WW1 on behalf of Serbia. The connection is unmistakable! Nay! The same Satanic elites that controls the US doesn't control Russia. On the contrary, Russia is a pain in their geopolitical and hegemonic designs. There are just no basis for comparison. The differences are just too obvious. 6 Likes 1 Share |

paschu: Fanfare fantasy. You forgot that the Prodigal Son converted and returned to his father. Is America converting back to the true principles of the founding fathers on which the country was built? Answer that! Is America turning back to God or provoking God the more?

You see that's the problem with many, many Christians: Always Judgemental. "I will show mercy to whom I will show mercy, and I will show compassion to whom I will show compassion" - God says. And your condemnation of America is not going to change anything. Read your Bible very well, and you'd see that God hates injustice and opression more than anything else. Then look at the whole world (and Nigeria in particular where religion seems to have had a free reign) you'd notice that few nations (if any) has institutionalized justice and fairness for ALL, as the United States has done for themselves and for the world at large. Does that mean they have become perfect as a nation? No. But it does mean that they are after God's own heart where it matters most - and not in some empty and ineffective religious rituals ( Is. 58 comes to mind). Bible does talk about the blessedness of those whose sins are not counted against them. And guess what? The US is one of such. Why? Because God CHOSE to bless America and show her mercy. Why?. Beacuse while Isreal was built as God's own nation (because God loved Isreal), the United States got built as God's own nation because America loved God (in God we trust. One nation under God). And God does not forget his covenant. Why? Because even if we become unfaithful, he will remain fathful, because he cannot deny himself. He is a covenant keeping God. And just like he had to raise for himself the PERFECT son (Jesus) to fufill his promise to David that he will always have a son to sit on the throne of Davidic dynasty as long as day and night remain, (Jesus, son of David, have mercy on me! The one who holds the key of David), God also has the power to raise for himself a man/people who would see to it that America REMAINS a nation after God's own heart. (And this may include being a nation where there's neither racial nor religious prejudices, injustices and opression). Note, America, just like David is a nation BUILT after God's own heart. And just like God did for David, God has the power to discount the sins of America (partly to expose and humble the religious arrogance of folks like you). And by the way, except by some unverifiable and subjective innuendo-based conjectures, there is no way to prove that the present day US is (or will ever be) the biblical "Mystery Babylon". So please just keep your opinions to yourself. Appleyard: 3 Likes |
