| Russia Puts Bounty on Iraq Killers |
| 2006-06-30 |
| Russia offered a $10 million reward Friday for information on the killers of five Russian Embassy staff workers in Iraq, according to a report. The offer came two days after President Vladimir Putin ordered special services to hunt down and 'destroy' those responsible for the deaths. The slayings shocked Russia and prompted an angry outcry against the U.S.-led coalition. Russia's Foreign Ministry confirmed Monday that four Russians seized in early June had been killed. A videotape purported to show the deaths of some. A fifth staffer was slain during the abduction. The kidnappers had demanded the Kremlin pull its troops out of Chechnya, a predominantly Muslim region in southern Russia where separatists have been fighting for independence. 'For information which will lead to the result being achieved, the National Anti-terrorist Committee of the Russian Federation will pay a reward of $10 million,' the head of the Federal Security Service, Nikolai Patrushev, according to the RIA-Novosti news agency. |

| #6 By 2050, by Russian officios own publicly reported statements, if nothing changes Russia's population will be less than half of America's current population, and getting smaller. The Chicoms andor any surreal future Iranian Shia Revolutionary Empire won't even have to invade becuz there'll be no Russians or not enough Russians to resist takeover. The future contemporary descendants of the Germanic-Nordic peoples whom gave Russia its name will have to rename the area SINOASIA = ISLAMASIA, etc. All the warrior-leader, competitive, innovation and progress-building Clintonian Russki Male Brutes are dying between ages 40-50, leaving Russian society to women, the elderly, and masses upon mases of emotionalist youths the former can't control, or more importantly $$$ or materially support. |

| #5 Fuck Russia. They don't give a shit about anything other than their own immediate self-interests. If they do something that happens to overlap with our interests, it is mere coincidence. Extend this fact: They have never, not once since the dawn of their existence, intentionally acted as an honest broker or a force for the greater good. There are individual exceptions within their population, of course... those that emigrate. Those we welcome. Those that remain and support the likes of Putin, fuck 'em. |

| #4 I think if the Russians get ahold of these guys they won't be wringing their hands on how to treat them. My advice to the killers: get your ass to 229 West 43rd Street, New York City, ask for Bill. |

| #2 I wonder what the odds are of Russians ever paying a bounty? I know the Brits had a fine tradition of welching on such debts, and the French, meh! But Russians? In fact, that is one thing about Americans that always unnerves everybody else: if at all possible they always pay their debts. Downright unnatural. |
