A journalist asks President Obama during a press conference, “Mr. President, we just saw you engage in a heated conversation with Mr. Kerry. Can you tell us what you were discussing?”

“We were talking about delivering a military strike on Syria in the course of which a million Syrians and a dozen of journalists will be killed.”

“Why will the journalists be killed?!?” everybody in the audience gasps.

“You see, John?” Obama says, turning to Kerry. “I told you nobody would give a rat’s ass about these Syrians.”

First heard this one about Bush and Iraq. Hell of a change Obama was, it seems.

Russian post about Syria:
http://vlad-lavrov.livejournal.com/143723.html#cutid1

A small translated quote for English readers:

Vladimir Putin has called false the statements made in the U.S. Congress during debates on the possible intervention in the Syrian conflict. The president said that to the question of a congressman about functioning of “Al-Qaeda” in the conflict zone, the country’s Secretary of State, John Kerry, said that there are no members of this organization in Syria.

“He’s lying, and he knows he is lying. It’s sad,” noted Putin, explaining that now in Syria operates the group that is a division of “al-Qaeda,” and the U.S. government definitely knows it.

The Russian blogger also mentioned the new trend – American Military Refusing To Fight For Al-Qaeda In Syria (Pictures)

(In Russian) About Russian immigrants in US:

Про дедовщину

Есть в местной русскоязычной эмигрантской среде такое интересное явление как дедовщина. То есть банальная попытка превосходства одних людей над другими. Отражение ментальности советского человека в изменившейся среде.

  This is so true… I also noticed that some “old” immigrants exhibit special resentment towards newer professional ones, who came straight into the middle class. Some “old” immigrants apparently treated being allowed into the US as a privilege, as vindication for their suffering, and were not too happy to see this privilege lose its significance, by any decent M.S. of computer science being admitted into the US on a work visa, despite of not being discriminated in newcomer’s homeland. Or, better yet, just some mafioso…
  I explicitly ask you not to treat the above as directed against particular nation. I am pretty sure that ex-Soviets of any other national/religious origins would develop similar attitude under similar circumstances.
