Title: Ex-CIA’er to Ex-KGB’er: Defeat, Mr. Putin, lies in ignoring the Islamists’ words and waging less than total war

From this distance, Mr. Putin, it appears that when you unleashed the Russian air force on 30 September 2015 you expected to save Bashir al- Assad’s regime and bring order to Syria and Iraq in a relatively short period of time. Well, the application of Russian air power is continuing, but only a month after its start, the Islamic State’s (IS) fighters responded by executing a superbly professional operation that destroyed a Russian airliner flying over the Sinai, killing the 224 people aboard.

Damn tough luck, Mr. Putin. It is clear that Russia has a serious strategic problem with the Islamists, but in the past six weeks you behaved as a reckless, ignorant, and really rather dumb jackass, as have Mr. Clinton, Mr. Bush. Mr. Obama, Senators McCain, Graham, Rubio, and Cruz, former-Secretary Clinton, Mr. Cameron, Mr. Blair, Mrs. Merkle, Mr. Hollande, and sundry other lesser European leaders.

You have behaved as if your air force would be sufficient to deliver victory, that it would intimidate the mujahedin into quitting, and that Russia would suffer few casualties as you unfolded in Syria a Russian version of the Cheney-Rumsfeld “cakewalk” in Iraq. The odds also are enormous that you never bothered to read a word of what the mujahedin have said and written since Osama bin Laden declared war in 1996, and so you were entirely ignorant of the kind of enemy you were facing. Frankly, Mr. Putin, these are very bad grades for a man that history will assess as aspiring to be “Tsar of all the Russians.”

Since the year of 1996, Islamist leaders, sub-leaders, theologians, field commanders, and fighters-in-the-trenches have said U.S./Western interventionism had motivated them to wage war, that they would kill as many of their enemies as was necessary to rid the Islamic world of Western military interventionists, and that they were waging a religious war, one that their faith required them to fight until they won or were eradicated.

The Islamists also told their foes that they intended to geographically expand their war as quickly and as far as possible, and that they believed that, while victory could only be granted by Allah, they could assist the divinity by inflicting casualties on their sophomoric, casualty averse- enemies. They also explained that, Allah willing, they would cause a steadily increasing drain on Western nations’ treasuries — especially that of the United States — which had already been bankrupted by the devastatingly destructive spendthrifts who govern them. Allah, it seems clear, has delivered in spades to those on whom his favor falls.

Whatever response you come up with to avenge the avenging IS attack on the Russian passenger aircraft, you must do it with hard but clear-seeing eyes. If you respond only with more intense aerial attacks, you will be playing into IS hands because a war that was caused by tepid Western military interventionism can hardly be won by more of the same tepid military interventionism. Such attacks will have little impact on the Islamists’ capabilities and manpower, will strengthen mujahedin morale because your reliance on air power will signal that Russia does not intend to win, will increase popular sympathy and clerical support for the mujahedin across the Muslim world, and will further drain your treasury, which is in even worse shape than the U.S. treasury. Moreover, such under-achieving but Muslim- killing aerial attacks will further anger the lethal and growing domestic Islamist forces you confront in Russia, the Caucasus, and Central Asia, and probably will hasten the large-scale attack those fighters are now planning to stage inside Russia. That attack is the post-Sinai shoe that has yet to drop, and when it does, Mr. Putin, you will look as much the bewildered ninny as those other “leaders” mentioned above.

What you are looking at, Mr. Putin, is the following absurd but all too real scenario. Only an enormous ground force — perhaps a million soldiers might provide enough shooters to get the Islamists’ attention — has a ghost of a chance of defeating the mujahedin. And you must keep in mind that even waging war in that way will not ensure victory. You will recall, Mr. Putin, that when you and your colleagues were still strutting, arrogant, and murderous Soviets, sufficient force was not used in Afghanistan and so the Red Army’s “limited contingent” there – the model for Rumsfeld’s “small footprint” — was soundly thrashed and evicted by the Afghan Islamists after Moscow foolishly had started this whole jihad mess by invading that never- beaten country in 1979.

In addition, if Russian forces fight a whole-hog war in Syria/Iraq, Mr. Putin, do not think that it will at all resemble anything predicted or advocated by the self-styled but always-wrong experts who staff the West’s counter-insurgency brains-trust — David Kilcullen, Max Boot, David Petraeus, John Nagl, etc.

–There will be no economic component to the war your forces wage, except for Russia’s deepening bankruptcy. It will have to be all raw, indiscriminate, and unrelenting military power because the enemy will not compromise his faith for, say, a modern, Russian-paid for irrigation system, highway, or mobile-phone network.

–There will be no hearts-and-minds component to the war because there are absolutely zero hearts and minds to win among the Islamists, their supporters, and their quickly growing number of sympathizers. The Islamists are waging a religious war and have believed in and welcomed the reality that their jihad will end in only victory or death, and that either ending is in Allah’s hands alone.

–There will be no diplomatic breakthroughs and certainly no “political solution” to the war unless you militarily annihilate the Islamists and then militarily impose either Russian or Western paganism on whatever Muslims remain alive in the Syria/Iraq Theater. You could thereby establish a temporarily stable situation which would last until the coming Muslim generation reaches Kalashnikov age. (NB: Mr. Putin, if any of your political, intelligence, or military advisers tell you that “all wars have political solutions” and one can be reached in this case without first securing a complete military victory over the Islamists, have them shot, drawn, and quartered.)

There is one more item beginning “There will be no” which is so obvious that it ought not to be necessary to state. Still, given recent statements by you and you foreign minister it may be worth stating.

–There will be no effective help coming Russia’s way from the United States, the EU, or the Sunni Arab regimes.

–You must know, Mr. Putin, that the leaders and the elites of the United States and the EU are (a) perpetual adolescents; (b) reliable moral and physical cowards; (c) pseudo-intellectuals who cannot — despite expensive educations and history’s lessons — conceive of the immense and ruthless power possessed by a religion at war; (d) vicious haters of their own citizens, butchers of infants and military personnel, and fawning lovers and protectors of the Third World dregs that are inundating and destroying the cohesiveness of their societies.

–These men and women and their preferred and pampered minority groups, Mr. Putin, are walking/talking dead-people who are smugly but blindly striding toward domestic turmoil and perhaps a revolution that will — pray God — destroy them, and, at least in America, allow the nation to restore republicanism, Christianity, the rule of law, and traditional English liberties. Russia, Mr. Putin, is better-off without such allies, as they are regimes that will turn on you it if they lose a half-dozen soldiers or if a few mujahedin-supporting civilians are killed. If you and Russia really need massive military help from the United States and the EU, it would be best to get out of Syria now, use Russia’s military forces to annihilate the Islamists in the Caucasus, and spend whatever money you have to close the border between Central Asia and Afghanistan, across which Russia’s primary strategic threat from the Islamists will come.

–As for Saudi Arabia and the other Sunni Arab regimes, Mr. Putin, you must keep in mind that for them there is no happier, holier, or more desired outcome to this war than the Islamists’ annihilation of the apostate Shias and Alawites and their humiliation and bankrupting of the United States, the EU, and Russia. Indeed, you may have noticed that the media is reporting that the IS fighters have never used anti-tank weapons against Syrian armor as tellingly and in such numbers as they have since Russia entered the war. There is, of course, no need to for you wonder where those weapons are coming from, or who is paying for them.

So there you have it, Mr. Putin, you and Russia are in quite a fix. But as bad as things are, they could be worse. You might, for example, have the United States and the EU as your allies. As allies, they would help you in the way they helped themselves in Afghanistan; that is, they will take a problem that required a murderous, 15-month punitive expedition — killing all that moved, demolishing all that stood, and leaving behind a desert named “Peace” — and turn it into a decade-plus disaster that has left the Islamists stronger and able to project power into Central Asia and Pakistan. Indeed, the U.S. and NATO repeated the kind of childish, half-way military campaign you and your Soviet pals waged in Afghanistan – including a ridiculous reliance on Special Forces — but it has cost them infinitely more.

Take history’s indelible lesson, Mr. Putin, expecting victory when tepidly fighting alongside effeminate post-Cold-War Western allies is a fool’s dream or an ignoramus’s expectation. If you are not willing to go all in and do your own dirty work until Russia destroys IS in Syria/Iraq, get all out and take care of your Islamist problem at home.

That, in a nutshell is the main problem. The real enemy is at home and not only refuses to recognize the real external enemy but wants to hold up a white flag if surrender, a welcome sign, then play footsie with them while subsidizing them.

It really isn't rocket science to understand that a determined and militant West is required to fight and defeat a determined and aggressive Islamic force hellbent on establishing a world Caliphate.

Last night I had a brief conversation with a state senator who was also a lawyer. He acted like islam was a religion that should be protected under guarantees of freedon of religion under the constitution. We were not in a formal debate. I was not in a position to tell him that there should be a more accurate definition of religion that does not include the form of communicable serious aggressive paranoid irreversible mental illness that islam qualifies as being.

The author is correct in everything except his understanding of history. The Muslims CAN be beat,but it is going to take a nation with the will power to do what has to be done,whatever that might be,in order to defeat them. Europe did this several hundred years ago,and did it well enough it has taken the Muslims several hundred years to even recover to the point where they are now.

Hell,we can defeat them now without even having to conquer them because we,the west,have the technical ability to shut down ALL commerce to every single Muslim nation on earth without even having to step across any of their borders.

Stop ALL supplies going into and out of EVERY Muslim country,and do not allow even ONE of the to ever cross any border with the west again by utilizing the simple method of gunning down any that try.

Let's see how long the Mullahs and Sheikhs will last once the lights go out and the food stops coming in.

Turn all of Arabia into a Muslim prison,and kill anyone and everyone trying to get out or get in.

As a part of that campaign it will be necessary to destroy EVERY mosque in the west,and to deport anyone claiming to be a Muslim back to the 3rd world shithole they came from.

While you are at it,deport ANY and ALL westerners that take up the Muslims side and say we shouldn't do those things. Since they are Muslim fellow-travelers,let them travel with the Muslims.

You say we can't do this because Muslim sheikhs own too much stock in western corporations and control too many western banks? HorseHillary! Once we declare war on them,they are enemy combatants and have NO property that can't be seized anywhere in the world,and converted to western control so that the assets can be used to rebuilt the countries they have tried to destroy.

OR and even AND if you want to get old-fashioned about it,do the economic warfare bit as well as the traditonal warfare bit. Target EVERY residence,palace,and desert tent thought to house any and every member of every royal and religious family in Raghead Land,and wipe out the entire tribal and religious leadership and their entire extended families.

In short,make Muslims an endangered species in the west,and leaderless ignorant rabble in their own countries.

The one thing we should never do is fight any war we don't intend to win.

The West has definatly become suicidal. There is an extensive population of people , although living in a condition of opulence are too preoccupied with transient enjoyable impulses that are destructive over the long term to live successfully in it. They have been propagandaized to believe that a suicidal mission is morally superior than to live day to day in misery within a society which requires a modicum of effort and adult responsibility. There is a book out by Diana West entitled "The death of the grown-up" that should be required reading for graduation from high school and again from college.

Very good post. He seems to have a bias against air power, a bias that did not exist in his earlier works. He once wrote that our 9-11 memorial should be the fire bombed ruins of Kandahar, and that would have been a very sane policy.

Air power can be effective, if used effectively. The idea is not to use precision to avoid collateral damage. The idea is to use precision weapons to achieve the greatest demographic impact with economy of force. Air power could be used to level a town, but perhaps it would be more efficient to destroy the irrigation works that feed the town. If done right, war can leverage the other 3 horsemen to achieve the greatest demographic results.

The way we fight today would be like going to buy something to kill cockroaches, but insisting on something that does not harm cockroach eggs, larvae and breeding females. The objective is to eliminate the cockroaches, if you can kill cockroach eggs and larvae before it can do any damage that is a good thing.

When we are serious, we would look upon them as cockroaches, and adopt the appropriate strategy. All we do now is enrich the Military Corporate Complex while bankrupting the treasury.

Islam has killed about 300,000,000 million people in it's path to establish supremacy over centuries including 88,000,000 Hindus in India. There is interminable horror expressed over the excesses of the Nazi's. Next to islam, the Nazis were just amateurs. In the early eleventh century general Malmoud sent carts back to his caliphs back home with 10,000 heads from India to show how well he was doing with the infidels.

Air power is mostly a waste of resources,and used by politicians that don't have the stones to fight an actual war,so they try to do it on the cheap.

Both the British and the Germans proved in WW-2 how useless air power is at getting the enemy to surrender. All it does is piss them off and make them more determined to fight.

All we do now is enrich the Military Corporate Complex while bankrupting the treasury.

Which I seriously think is their intent,and why we keep fighting and never winning. War is good for dividends and high union wages/employment,and peace is bad for dividends and union jobs.

Air power should not be used to try and win hearts. It can make a big demographic impact, stopping hearts from beating. The ISIS capital of Al- Raqqah lies a couple dozen miles downstream from the largest dam in Syria. Were the dam to be taken out correctly, you'd have a Johnstown type flood aimed at Al-Raqqah, and even more importantly; afterward you'd cut off the flow of water to several irrigation canals that water around 300,000 acres. Plus the initial flood of water would impact the fertile lands along the Euphrates itself.

The way the MCC fights these lame colonial style wars you could use a plane like the old Douglas Skyraider, rather than tasking a B-1 with engaging a single sniper! The old Spad would have been good for shooting up refugee boats in the Mediterranean too.

Yes, it took several millions of Soviet soldiers on the ground.

Today Russia is more than two times weaker demographically and several times economically than America - she cannot afford to send an army. They can provide key aerial support to the ground troops.

The troops on the ground are Syrians, Persians and others. West can help by stopping help to the moderate terrorists, Saudis by stopping help to the immoderate terrorists.

I LOVED Skyraiders! Excellent TAC air support aircraft.

I still disagree with your idea on strategic bombings,though. We firebombed Dresden to the ground during WW-2,and all it did was make the Germans mad and make them think the Nazi's were better than we were.

There was no mass rush to surrender after nuking the Japanese twice. What it took to get them to surrender was immunity for the Emperor.

Why would they do that when they are the main financiers of Muslim terrorism?

BTW,"Soviet soldiers" didn't win WW-2. US manufacturing and shipping won it,as well as American troops pushing into Germany from Africa into western Europe.

Without the US you would be whining in German today.

Genesis 11:1-9King James Version (KJV)

11 And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech.

2 And it came to pass, as they journeyed from the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar; and they dwelt there.

3 And they said one to another, Go to, let us make brick, and burn them thoroughly. And they had brick for stone, and slime had they for morter.

4 And they said, Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top may reach unto heaven; and let us make us a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth.

5 And the Lord came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men builded.

6 And the Lord said, Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do.

7 Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another's speech.

8 So the Lord scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth: and they left off to build the city.

9 Therefore is the name of it called Babel; because the Lord did there confound the language of all the earth: and from thence did the Lord scatter them abroad upon the face of all the earth.

Actually it was quite empty. Germanic tribes like Goths, Vandals and others migrated West/South to carve their states on Roman territory.

Then in 6th century Slaves led by Avars came from today Ukraine/Belarus. Possibly few centuries earlier Slaves formed under Finnish and Iranian tribes influence on the western/southern slopes of Ural Mountains before starting their migration.

I have a great sympathy for the Fundamentalists. They put Faith in the first place, opting for the literal interpretation if needed. They made the right choice, considering where the liberal Protestant theology went in XIX century.

If you have Bible only at your disposal and you want interpretation accessible for everyone it is a quite sensible approach.

Actually,everywhere in the known world was "quite empty" 2000 years ago.

The Mari were just one of,and probably the most populous people inhabiting what is now called "Russia" when whites started moving into that land mass from what is now called the Scandinavian countries and western Europe.

Most of the "native peoples" have long since disappeared and been forgotten.

And even that is assuming that THEY were the "original peoples" of those areas,and not invaders themselves.

Maris like large part of tribes living in forests and steppes of Russia got Russified and merged in this old melting pot. Russians have a lot Finno-Ugric and other non Slavic blood in their veins.

Do those Mari people look non white to you?

Thing is only Trump would have the balls to pull it off. Wouldn't you agree?

No. He is a pompous draft-dodging gasbag with no balls.

Sadly,our political system has became neutered and globalized to the point where I don't think we have ANY "name" politicians with the guts to do what needs to be done,and even if a few were to pop up and by some miracle one was to get elected President,even he or she couldn't do anything on their own and would have zero support from the sheep-like politicians in Congress they would need because those weasels would be worried about losing the "black,Arab,and Muslim vote back home".

I haven't discussed any of what I wrote with anyone on active duty,but I can guarantee you that not a thing I wrote would be a new thought to many senior NCO's and officers in the US Army or the USMC. The US Navy is a branch of the DNC and no one in their senior leadership has had any balls since before WW-2 so they don't count,and you lose the USAF when you stop talking about bombing or missile strikes. Besides,this is all about control of territory,not the skies or the sea,and the only people that understand this and understand how to take and control the ground are the US Army and the USMC.

I know of a couple of retired senior US Army Generals that completely understand what needs to be done who would be ideal Presidents in the militant world of today,but neither have ever been involved in politics and AFAIK have no interest in being involved in politics. Which means you are I could be elected as easily as them.

I don't think we are going to get serious about this until fundie Islam starts making strikes right here in mainland USA in major cities,and I am not even sure our political class has the stones to do something even then,and suspect it MIGHT take setting off a nuke or bio weapon in a major city like NYC,Chicago,or DC before those turds wake up and understand that even THEY are at danger and decide to so something real.

Just look at how little REAL effect flying airliners into the WTC and the Pentagram had for proof of this. LOTS of flashy "air strikes into their mountain lairs" stuff,while opening our borders at the very same time to hundreds of thousands of rabid Muslim immigrants from some of the very countries we SHOULD be at war with.

Whites? Probably you have Indo-Europeans in mind, who came from the south Russia thousands of years ago. Basques were before them, Hungarians came the last after Indo-Europeans. Basques, Hungarians and Finns are white too.

Cossack have mixed blood, Slavic, Turkish, and yes Ugro-Finnish like Maris.

Go there and tell Maris that they are fake and that their traditions and language are made up.

I've been there,visited with actual Mari's,or as close as you can come to one today,which is half-Mari,and visited the Mari Museum in Yoshkar-Ola.

I even personally know the woman who wrote the first dictionary of the Mari language.

And you?

I still disagree with your idea on strategic bombings,though. We firebombed Dresden to the ground during WW-2,and all it did was make the Germans mad and make them think the Nazi's were better than we were.

I don't want to try to change their minds. Lothrop Stoddard observed that the only Islam has ever been eliminated where it has taken root is by extirpation, using Spain as his example. If I had to deal with them, I'd want them dead. I don't even want to do that, the only reason they pose a demographic threat is due to idiots in the West who've helped them multiply their numbers to far higher levels than they would have reached on their own. Their naturally high birthrate should be balanced by a high death rate, but Western elites interfere with nature.

90 years ago they numbered 250 million, today they are 1.6 billion. As an overall policy for the West it would be good to see some drastic thinning of the herd over there. It would be best to do what we can to orchestrate such a thing rather than carry it out by our own hands. This can be from things like encouraging their own hatreds for each other, such as the Sunni/Shia schism. We should not discourage nations with troublesome Islamic minorities from taking a final solution to their problems. We could even try a "bait and bleed" strategy, to draw China into the Muddle East.

You would not want such a foreign policy in the hands of Hillary's coven, you'd need a modern day Machiavelli.

My idea on strategic bombing is to expand your idea of the blockade. I've no qualms about leveling their cities, except that it is not the most efficient way of getting a good "ragheads per mega-buck" ratio. The most effective thing we ever did with the B-29's was operation "Starvation," which had a goal that matched its name. Laying sea mines around Japan. We'd want to use air power in such a way as to expand the blockade. Their irrigation works make a prime target, you would not kill any any ISIS jihadists, they'd be the last ones to starve. But they are parasitic overhead, so even their survival would help to weaken their society.

Not trying to make them cry "uncle," trying to take them back in time. Erode their technology, the further back in time you can take them, the lower the amount of population they can support. The blockades make sure that not refugees make it out. One good thing, if you can take their productive farmlands out of service, while degrading their ability to use fossil fuels, they come into a situation where they need to harness animal power, meaning they need to find fodder for draft animals as they have less fertile land available.

Sherman observed the logistic implications, noting that a team of horses moving a wagon load will have consumed the contents of the wagon by the time they reached 100 miles. Which was why he loved the railroad. When Spain adopted Madrid as their capital, they assumed a strategic liability as the supplies for the extravagant capital has to be moved overland by ox-cart. It was not fatal, but they were significantly degraded as a result.

The West is not ready to fight like this yet, they want to be tolerant. When they weary of turning the other cheek, and come to see the virtues of intolerance, that is when my time will come.

Was eastern Europe?

Actually it was quite empty.

Silesia, Pomerania and East Prussia had 14 million peoples when the Pole's moved in in 1945. By 1947 all 14 million were gone, either driven out or killed. Poles are the last people on earth to be lecturing us about this sort of thing.

Then you haven't thought this through. The purpose of getting the PEOPLE to change their minds about the their leadership and their participation in war with you is to get the people you are fighting to turn on and overthrow their leadership,thus saving your own lives and wealth.

THAT was supposed to have been the thinking behind stratetic bombing. Instead of convincing the German and Japanese people that the war was lost and they should surrender,it only pissed them off and made them dig in harder.

WWII, yes. It was wrong.

But we were talking about original Slavic settlement that took place in VI century, weren't we? BTW it was well into today Eastern Germany, as later Germans expanded east (in Middle Ages).

I knew you are a comrade,thus as dumb as a month old turd,but apparently you are even dumber than that.

The Mari looked more like American Indians than white people,and even dressed in buckskins,wore feathers in their hair,and lived in teepees.

The photos you keep posting are Stalinist-era photos of "Russianized" Mari's after Stalin forced them all into cities like Yoskhar-Ola,and moved a bunch of white Russians into the Mari Republic to live with and mix with them. They are photos of Russians with MAYBE 1/4 Mari blood wearing traditional Russian and Ukranian dress.

As for the Finns that speak the Mari language,they look like Eskimos,not the Scandinavians that took over their islands.

Since the year of 1996, Islamist leaders, sub-leaders, theologians, field commanders, and fighters-in-the-trenches have said U.S./Western interventionism had motivated them to wage war, that they would kill as many of their enemies as was necessary to rid the Islamic world of Western military interventionists, and that they were waging a religious war, one that their faith required them to fight until they won or were eradicated.

This is pure bullshit. Muslims feel that have an injunction to fight against everything that is not Muslim. That is what jihad means. If there was no western intervention they would still feel the need to fight, to attack because they would concieve of some problem, economic exploitation or whatever, but so long as they do not rule the world they will fight. They have been contained for a time but their view has always been expansionist. Things were relatively quiet before Iran was lost to extremism but extremism came back, in Afghanistan, in Pakistan and it is speading again. A muslim told me fifty years ago they would fight and I couldn't concieve then of what he was talking about

Your obsession with racial purity is not so healthy as you think. So, you think "non white" Maris got better or worse by admixture of "white" blood?

Second, I did not have access to some mysterious archives of "Stalinist-era" photos (with very advanced colors), I just Google for them and picked the ones came first excluding Maori from New Zealand (I hope you did not get confused by them?)

Third, were you really there, and spreading such ideas?

Fourth, the photos I posted before came from a Protestant website International Mission Board. They went there several times.

Let me try again, here is from another website, http://imgbuddy.com/mari-people.asp

I guess that you cannot wrap your mind around idea that there is another white races like Ugro-Finnish. The similarity between them and Russians comes from the fact that Russia came from the merge of Slavic, Ugro-Finish and others.

About the dress, there were multiple influences, in multiple directions during the countless centuries.

You really are a total fucking idiot. My grandmother was a full-blooded Tuscarora Indian.

So, you think "non white" Maris got better or worse by admixture of "white" blood?

If you have blonde hair,blue eyes,and Slavic features,you are NOT a Mari. You are a Russian playing dress up.

Second, I did not have access to some mysterious archives of "Stalinist-era" photos (with very advanced colors), I just Google for them and picked the ones came first excluding Maori from New Zealand (I hope you did not get confused by them?)

No shit,Sherlock! IF you had ever been to the Mari Republic and gone to the Mari Museum you would be slightly less delusional than you are now because you would have seen photos of full-blooded Mari people that were taken BEFORE (get someone with patience to explain the concept of "before" to you) Stalinization happened and all the white Russians were moved into the Republic,everyone was forced to speak Russian and dress Russian,and before the Mari began to disappear as a race of people who had been living in that area since the Stone Age.

I just Google for them and picked the ones came first

WOW! THERE is a surprise!

excluding Maori from New Zealand (I hope you did not get confused by them?)

I'm not the one that is confused,nor am I the one that is an ignorant fool.

Fourth, the photos I posted before came from a Protestant website International Mission Board.

Yup,if you want to find historic facts about people that existed before the creation of Christianity,the one place you want to go for the facts are Christian missionaries that are there to recruit. I actually know one of these women personally. She lives maybe 5 miles from me and I have know her,her brothers,and her sister since they were in high school. She went "on missions" to Russia twice,and was planning on going again,but all those little "mini-vacations" is psychiatric lockup kept interfering.

They went there several times.

And of course they went there before 1920,right?

You fit every stereotype of the stupid Pole that has ever existed. You are not only incapable of actual thought,but you don't even understand what you read.

You are actually so stupid you take photos from 2015 as illustrations of what people looked like in 1915 in a country that was given a total makeover at bayonet point by Stalin.

In Finland,their cousins the Saami were just invaded and outbred. Look at this photo of a Saami family taken in 1900 and compare that to the photos you took of PEOPLE in the Mari Republic taken in recent years.
