Russia is rapidly overtaking America. Any why not? Russia has completely recovered from its Soviet-bolshevik days (not to say that it couldn't backslide -- Zionazis and int'l bankers are extremely evil) and has a fanatically pro-Russian nationalist government. Russia is just plain filthy rich with natural resources and homegrown industry -- the opposite of USofA where its magnificent industrial base has all been shipped away.

A great article in "Sovietsky Sport" describes resurgent Russia, as an example, a blue-collar town named Nimzy Novgorod. This place is workout country for Alex Ovechkin, the superstar hockey player for an NHL team and Team Russian when it competes internationally. Ovechkin's uncle describes resurgent Russia, comparing 2008 Russia to the dreary communist wasteland he encountered as a junior Red Army enlisted man in the 1970s.

America is utterly doomed to Russia's fate from the 20th century. It's up to us American Nationalists to assure that USofA's communist era doesn't last 80 years like it did in Russia. ... So here's the Uncle Ovechkin article. Extraordinarily interesting, and unprintable in America because it might show Americans that life in Russia is rapidly becoming superior to life in Peoples Republic of USA.

*******

As of today Alexander Ovechkin, the best hockey player in the world, is training hard during his off-season training, He is running cross-country crosses in the forest near Novogorsk, the suburb of Moscow. The Washington Capitals forward says that he is now ready to run a marathon at the Olympics. If this is a joke, you are right, but in August Alexander the Great will be in Beijing to root for the basketball team.

While Alex is running cross country somewhere in the forest your correspondent adjusts himself on the hot bench and begins the conversation with Mikhail Viktorovich, Ovechkin's father. Uncle Misha [Michael Ovechkin] is in complete delight. The other day he visited with his son Nizhny Novgorod. And now he believes that the city's infrastructure is not much inferior to America.

"I was stationed there when I was drafted in the army in the 1972-1973", says Ovechkin the Senior. "Back then Nizhny Novgorod was a gray, grim place. When I came back I couldn't believe my eyes. The small local town Lyskovo with population of only 26 thousand people has the hockey arena, the shooting gallery, and the swimming pool. And it is planned to build 16 more similar arenas in Nizhny Novgorod region!

I was crazed when I saw that children in schools are picked by the buses, as it is in the States. The groceries are full of food, the streets are clean. I became a fan of Nizhny Novgorod. Especially because some former Dynamo players like Chubarov, Kharitonov and Troschinsky will be playing for Nizhny Novgorod's Torpedo next season...

Alex went there to work with Alex Kovalev on hockey clinic for kids. The arena was sold out. I went out to have a smoke and asked the local guys what they were thinking about their Governor Valerie Shantsev. They almost applauded, "We won the lottery with him!"

P.L: I think you've exaggerated a bit on America's comparison.
M.O.: Why? In general, we are accustomed to underestimate Russia. For example, when the hockey player arrives to Russia from abroad [or from other Russian club] he gets an apartment, a car, a satellite dish, [all paid by the team] relocation money... In the NHL the player gets $ 100 per diem and he has to take care of himself. Before Alex bought a house in Arlington we were renting an apartment in front of the White House. Two rooms, one bathroom, a kitchen. That's all.

Russia may have a great sporting program, but they are losing people, their population is declining. Most of the deaths are men in their 40's, 50's, and 60's. There is an AIDS epidemic which is one of the worst in world.

Not to mention Russia is running short on men. Until they can solve their population implosion problem, I doubt they will regain their status as a world superpower, and a superpower in sports.

The USA though still has a healthy white population, it's still growing, although not as fast as the minorities.
