eigenstate posted:The clip is actually from Vesti Nedeli (News of the week), Kiselev's program: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jiPYWmm-wjs It's the preview for an upcoming film called "MH-17: Interrupted flight" by Arkady Mamontov to be aired Oct 11 at 6:55pm, so set your DVRs. It even has a guy wielding a pointing stick in front of a whiteboard filled with every conceivable crash scenario. I guess a whiteboard is really convenient if you needs to change something fast later. In one televised commentary, he said "[Gays] should be prohibited from donating blood, sperm,... And their hearts, in case they die in a car accident, should be buried or burned as unfit for extending anyone's life,"[2] suggesting that the internal organs of homosexuals should be burned and buried rather than be accepted for organ transplants.

Hey ya'll, ya boi 3peat is back to tell you that today is the greatest day of the year, as it's the day when Bucharest will host the Trianon Derby! To tide us over, let's take a look at last year's Trianon Derby, also held in Bucharest: Last year, the visiting Hungarian fans only destroyed a train, a few buses, a few sections of the stadium and the historical center of Bucharest. And they only suffered one dead and a few dozen injured. Quite tame for the proud descendants of Attila and Genghis Khan. Meanwhile, the Romanian fans couldn't reach the Hungarians because of the army of gendarmes between them, so they had to contend with beating each other up. Will this year's events top last year? I hope they do! As for the actual football, these are two of the worst teams in the world; the game will make the Special Olympics look like the World Cup final. Can't wait! And finally, a polandball

ringu0 posted:I need some help with the context. What do the banners say on these photos? What's the significance of both dates, 1914 and 1918? 1914 is before Romania joined the war, and 1918 was the war ended. That said, 1920 is probably more important because thats when the territory that Romania was supposed to receive was actually formally acknowledged. In 1919, Romania and Hungary also fought a war which dissolved the Hungarian Soviet Republic which was the only geninue communist state to form along with the Soviets during that period. Trianon was important because it formally broke up the Kingdom of Hungary into roughly present-day borders, Hungarians are still pissed about this because a rather large Hungarian minority was left outside their borders and it has more or less fueled Hungarian revanchism to this day. Hungary allied with Nazi Germany in part to revise those borders. quote:Oh that was supposed to be a joke post about the idiotic nationalism surrounding this game, and romanian nationalists call hungarians "mongols", while hungarian nationalists call romanians "gypsies"; sorry if you found it problematic Yeah it is rather hard to tell it was a "joke" to be honest. That said, it isn't a Eastern Europe thread if you can't make "jokes" about your ancestral enemies. Most of your post was pictures making ethnic Hungarians look stupid and violent. I remember visiting Cluj years ago and all the curbs and trash cans across town being painted the colors of the Romanian national flag. On the other separate issue there is the only other issue of Kiselev being called "mainstream" when his views are still radical compared to what the average Russian actually believes. Also, there is also that poster that thinks Russians believe they are the "master race" that wants to conquer humanity. Where do you draw the line on "justifiable xenophobia?"

Those weren't regular ethnic Hungarians, they were ultras with plenty of Jobbik members and other neonazis among them, and they were responsible for most of the violence last year; the only violence from Romanian ultras was when supporters of rival Bucharest clubs beat each other in the stands, which I did mention and posted pictures of. About Cluj, those painted trashcans and park benches are the legacy of former mayor Funar, who became the butt of jokes here because of it. I don't know if any painted flags are left considering they have a more sane ( although corrupt and incompetent) mayor these days.

Apparently at the CIS summit in Minsk yesterday Putin and president of Moldova Nicolae Timofti almost came to blows. http://www.mk.ru/politics/2014/10/10/na-sammite-v-minske-putin-vstupil-v-rezkiy-konflikt-s-prezidentom-moldovy.html quote:CIS summit in Minsk, suddenly turned into a public flogging Poroshenko. Commonwealth leaders have condemned his absence at the annual meeting, and some participants were forced to admit that, unlike Western politicians have not yet had the opportunity to personally meet with the Ukrainian president. Vladimir Putin, in turn, entered into a verbal argument with the head of Moldova Nicolae Timofti, which is the same as Poroshenko, signed the Association Agreement with the EU. Journalists who could not hear what the president says, at some point, it seemed that they are about to mate with each other.

It obviously highlights a lot of long standing animosity though and it doesn't take much to put two and two together even if it is a "joke." I wonder if random posters will show up to call Hungarians or maybe even Serbians "Asiatics" like they do with Russians.

Trianon Derby update: the circus is about to start Romanian ultras are gonna have a giant romanian flag which has the first article of the constitution written on it, which says that Romania is an unitary and indivisible state, which is supposed to make the hungarians angry cause they want Erdely; I really doubt they'll care tho edit: they played the hungarian anthem, but you couldn't hear anything because of the boos and pyrotechnics; thankfully no violence yet, just a lot of smoke from the flares and stuff edit2: the 2 groups of ultras are bombarding eachother with flares and firecrackers, so every 2-3 seconds you can hear a loud boom; this Fallujah atmosphere contrasts hilariously with the terrible football on the pitch also I was too quick with the "no violence" part, apparently there's bad incidents among the romanian fans, and one fell from a high fence; I guess Steaua and Dinamo fans are beating eachother once again edit3: the hungarians scored, but it was offside. this game is really bad, I almost want the hungarians to win and put us out of our misery 3peat fucked around with this message at 17:41 on Oct 11, 2014 |

A recent poll on how Ukrainians are going to vote on October, 26 (parliamentary elections): 1. Petro Poroshenko’s bloc (Klychko) – 29.9% 2. Fatherland (Tymoshenko) – 8.7% 3. Radical party (Liashko) – 7.6% 4. Civic position (Hrytsenko) – 7.3% 5. People’s front (Jatseniuk) – 7.0% The other parties, including the ex-party-of-regions organizations (the Opposition bloc and Strong Ukraine) as well as Svoboda and Right Sector, are way below the 5% barrier for entry into parliament. 55% to 72% of Ukrainians are going to vote. http://www.gfk.ua/ua/news-and-events/press-room/press-releases/pages/20141010-press-release.aspx

Rent-A-Cop posted:Except that in this case the "radicals" are like 80% Russian regulars who I'm sure would be perfectly happy to murder their freedom-loving Donbass comrades. Russian regulars are one of the minorities mostly in charge of command and being cannon fodder when they have to bail the terrorists out, I thought, while the majority was Russian right-wing extremists and terrorists, who Putin is now actively arming and training. I'm the last person to every call the Russian terrorists anything but. The point is that arming and training terrorists in your own country so they can fight for you is an almost suicidal move which has never worked out for anybody. And while the idea of Putin getting hoisted by his own petard is cool and good to me, the amount of suffering and terror brought to, say, minorities in Russia, who will surely be the first to be targeted once the now emboldened, empowered and heavily armed terrorists return to Russia doesn't sound so great.

Encouraging radical groups from your own country to leave your borders and fight your political enemies has a much better track record, though. It's working out pretty well for Saudi Arabia, why not Russia too?
