Russian official's snide remark to U.S. over Crimea situation.
2014-04-04
MOSCOW (Reuters) - U.S. policymakers need to calm down, maybe do some yoga and accept that Crimea is now part of Russia, a senior Russian diplomat said on Thursday in unusually caustic remarks directed at Moscow's former Cold War-era adversary.

Russia's annexation of Ukraine's Crimea region last month has deepened the worst East-West crisis since the Cold War ended two decades ago. The West has imposed sanctions on officials and businessmen believed to be close to President Vladimir Putin.

Many of those blacklisted have mocked the sanctions, wearing them as a badge of honor, but they have also rankled Moscow, with officials warning the West was only doing damage to itself.

"What can one advise our U.S. colleagues to do? Spend more time in the open, practice yoga, stick to food-combining diets, maybe watch some comedy sketch shows on TV," Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov told Interfax news agency.
Hey Sergei, go fok yourself !
"This would be better than winding oneself up and winding up others, knowing that the ship has already sailed ... Tantrums, weeping and hysteria won't help."
Funny those old Russians. They weren't so cheeky when Adolf was pushing Operation Barbarossa up their arses and we 'Lend Leased' them the modern day equivalent of $150b USD in cash and war materials.

#9  More Russian fun ...

* FREEREPUBLIC, DEFENCE.PK/FORUMS > RUSSIAN AMBASSADORS:" ... NEXT WE'LL TAKE CATALONIA, VENICE, SCOTLAND, + ALASKA".

In all seriousness, this seeming "jokery" on the part of Russia reflects the very real EXISTENTIAL DANGER the OWG Globalists are potentially exposing the US-World to iff they miscalculate.

E.g. the Top Leaders of the Soon-to-Be-Nuclear Hard Boyz + various Muslim Nations may be University-educated, but I wager the majority or bulk of those in lower tiers are not or are at best semi-educated - THEY DON'T KNOW NOR CARE, ETC. FOR THE FINER PARTICULARS OR DETAILS OF OWG GLOBALIST AGENDA NOT THE LEAST OF WHICH BECAUSE THE POLITICOS AREN'T EXPLAINING OR TEACHING ANYTHING TO THEM ANYWAY.

ALL THEY CARE ABOUT IS WHETHER OR NOT AN INFIDEL COUNTRY'S ARMY CAN STOP THEIR SOON-TO-BE-NUKULAAR ARMY FROM TAKING OVER THE FORMER'S TERRITORY, WOMEN, + POSSESSIONS, ETC. IN RIGHTEOUS NUKE-WMD ARMED BARBARIAN INDIGNATION.

They don't care about PCorrect "World Sharing" or "OWG-NWO" or "Trans-Pacific/Atlantic Partnerships" BECAUSE ITV THE LATTER = "THE WORLD" WILL ALL BE UNDER ISLAMIC CONTROL IN THE END, WHERE ONE'S ONLY CHOICE IS TO EITHER LEAVE, PAY THE JIZYA LIKE A PROPER SUBSERVIENT INFIDEL LEGAL SLAVE, OR BE BEHEADED.

They won't worry about the Rocket Scientists + Top Politicos because these will be the first or among the first to be beheaded.

#6  I meant the last line ie Obam's reaction was not part of the original joke.

Now let's imagine what President Sarah Palin would answer. Except nobody would even think of Putin telling her that kind of jokes.

#5  Ok the mast line is mine.

I assume this means something along the lines of "She got the gold mine, I got the shaft."?

#4  On a site of Russian jokes:

Putin phones to Obama: "Do you know the Russin name for Alaska?"
Obama No
Putin: Ice Cream (In Russian Crimea sounds like cream).
Obama laughs. Ok the mast line is mine.


Tahat is the end
