Today, at work, I was reflecting on the ignorant hatred of Russia shown by John McCain and the even worse hatred of our land, people, culture, and faith by Sarah Palin, his unfortunate running-mate. The Russian people (save for a few unrepresentative sorts) do not want the secular nihilism they are peddling under the label of “democracy”. This is the strong and vigorous people and nation that shall rise against them if they dare to implement the military confrontation that Sarah Palin threatened last night. May God keep and preserve Russia, and may He frustrate all of Ms Palin’s hate-filled plans.

There one has it. These pictures depict a great and dignified people, who are not seeking confrontation with anyone, but, they are ready to the defend the Motherland against all comers. Sarah Palin had best retract her words or face a very rude awakening. God bless the Motherland and keep it safe.
May we all preserve the peace together… or, we’ll all die in a common holocaust together… the choice is ours.
