I would strongly suggest that you drop the attack mode and debate with civility.
I would strongly suggest to stop calling kontraktniki serial killers and mercinaries, and drop the tone which may make a stranger to suspect a Russophobe in you. The liberal propaganda feeding you has no clue about real Russia. I pointed that so many times to you, you should start learning.
You have not proven that 1) He was a soldier 2) He was black.
You are in a state of denial, - what can he do less bringing the corpse, putting it on your table and making it to confess? Sure, the US government will never accept it is an American, but were do not have to be like them and we can trust some logic and common sense.
Tashah, you're just brainless Russophobe.
Tashah hardly is a Russophobe, she is brainwashed by liberal, Politkovskaya type propaganda, also she most likely had very unpleasant and may be shocking experience during her visit to Russia and especially to Ukraine.
According to the article the picture was taken August between 10 and 15. Location: Southern outskirts of Tskhinval (S.Ossetia capital).
Many people here think that the Russian press is all under Russian government dictatorship, and thus cannot be trusted, or at least cannot be trusted without a reservation. As the matter of fact many here do not trust the American press without a reservation.
it is a well known fact from the news how cruel US or Israeli army toward the civilians.
You see, it immediately puts you under suspicion. We have lunatics here who call American soldiers mercenaries obliterating entire Iraqi villages and murdering every Muslim within, serial killers, - but those are lunatics. It is quite stupid of you to come here and start talking stupid things about American soldiers. Have you ever served in the Soviet Army? You better apologize before starting me up on cruelty of Russian soldiers... I can compare, and I can assure you that all, except one, American military men I have known are not only not cruel, but also fine and honorable men, and the only one exclusion was stupid, but not cruel. He is stupid in contrast to ALL others who are quite educated. There are a lot more otmorozkov in the Russian Army, then ever in American military.
Many people here are not like Tashah, and many saw things that were not covered by the American media. I think the majority in this little community do not have to be yelled at to see problems in the US involvement with Georgia. So if you stop yelling and want some participation, you better first check what we have been talking about the conflict

If you wish to stay and inform us about Russia from your perspective and debate from your perspective I bet many will be interested VERY MUCH, - do not pay attention to Tashah, she knows everything about everything and everything is as she says it is, - but so far you are not exactly coming across as bringing peace as it is claimed in your profile. I am positively sure that you can contribute to this board, but if you decide to stay, I would advise you also to go slow for a while and try to catch up on some cultural differences. I am positively sure you would be able to.
Anyway thank you for information.
