Makes you appreciate the strategic importance of owning Alaska. It was always weird to me how it's part of the US but it's so separate and distant from us, and from an OCD standpoint it should just be Canada's.
We don't want to be Canadas, thank God that didn't happen!
As a Canadian... Thank god you took it from the Russians. Gotta be honest, I have always loved the USA (more than Canada) but Canada was always been looked at like America-Lite which is totally fine. However the past 14 months has completely exposed what Canada is. A nation of passive people who are happy to let everyone else lead the charge. We let everyone walk all over us with no fighting spirit. I am watching our liberties been taken and nothing done, people are hardly even upset about it. And lets face the truth.. While we are totally influenced by the USA, we are Britains bitch.
Thank god for the USA.
name checks out
Americas Hat Or America Shat
Thought it said Americanasshat
Mexico is the latter (respectfully)
Well...
Mexico has voter ID and guards at the polls.
That's all I'm saying.
Wish we had that. Shat was just a geographical reference
Teehee.
I’m friends with quite a few Canadians. As polite as they’ve always been, I’m absolutely disgusted at what they post. Just like you say, they are completely happy to be quiet and do as they’re told. Then criticize Trump. It’s so frustrating.
Well you guys technically are British. For that matter until now, so we're we.
Canadian here. What’s been personally disappointing is seeing how cucked Alberta has become. 15 years ago we would have never put up with this shit.
We still have some fighters in Alberta
Not mine. Fuck where this country is headed and is already at. We have fucking blasphemy laws....
Russia sold it to us for a good deal as a gift to foster goodwill between our nations with the ultimate plan of a tunnel linking the two countries across the Bering Strait.
Ooh, I like it!
But only if we can have Trump and Putin forever.
We need more people like them running for office, we do not want dictators, just protectors of our rights and life.
russian tunnels... um no thanks.
This is why they hate Russia
Russia helped America during our Revolutionary war
Russia helped us during the war of 1812
Taking over Russia with Bolshevik terrorists was essential to keep us divided
We share more in common with Russia than degenerate Western Europe today, a fact that terrifies TPTB
I am convinced Putin is a white hat. First clue was him handing the soccer ball to Trump, saying “The ball is in your court now.”
Recent confirmation: Russia kicking out the central bankers. Abandoning fiat. This is HUGE!
And now Myanmar is following suit. Bye bye central bank, hello fair elections.
I figure Xi and Midi are willing white hats as well. Plus the SA crown prince. Others have been flipped and under white hat control.
This is a world premiere movie we are watching. Most complex mil op of all time with many layers and players working together secretly. Amazing.
I've liked every Russian/Slavic person I've ever met. They are much more like us than the Europeans imo.
why didnt you buy it!?!?!
shit i dont know if i ever had $400 in highschool
LOL!
Don't forget he sent Monsanto packing when he banned GMOs in his country. I admired that action and wish they'd do it here.
Hell yes!! Ive been boycotting monsanto for 15 yrs.
Research Vladislav Surkov, nicknamed the Grey Cardinal
He was Putin’s chief strategist that employed the “Chaos Strategy” that Trump used to drain the swamp
It was first used in Russia to drain their swamp
A template for countering the cabal
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vladislav_Surkov
It would make sense though right?
Hollywood is not our friend, and what have they been doing all these years? 70s 80s and 90s, Russian bad guys!!
Constant hate on Russia, divide and conquer.
Honestly 70s and 80s Russian government were not that crash hot you know?
It's the the modern day Russia that they keep attacking like they're the old Russians.
Maybe more of a pink hat.
I trust him second to Trump among world leaders.
Russia also provided a naval blockade of the east and west coasts during the US Civil War that prevented Britain and France from intervening on the side of the Confederacy.
beat me too it fren.
I am glad there are many of us who know the real history!
me too fren! me too
How have I never heard this. That’s amazing.
Russia and the US were solid allies and were an existential threat to the British / Vatican world order, hence the communist revolution of 1917 in Russia.
Because our history has been controlled and white-washed.
dont forget russia helped us during our civil war too.
2.2 miles? Not really friend. I’ve been up there and it’s much farther than that
Sarah Palin's vision must be excellent then.
The media panned Sarah, but what she said was true
You can see Russia from Alaska
https://www.onlyinyourstate.com/alaska/where-you-can-see-russia-from-ak/
And she was making the point that Alaska is the only state that borders two different countries. So as a governor, she'd have more foreign policy experience than the next guy.
TECHNICALLY, Florida borders Cuba and the Bahamas....
and ron desantis is pimp
IMHO calling the Bering Strait a border is a bit of a stretch, when we do that with no other bodies of water. No one ever speaks of Florida "bordering" Cuba, or South Carolina "bordering" Bermuda.
Taken to its logical extreme, Hawaii borders Australia and Japan, among many other countries. :)
Aye, fren. Yuri was telling us the truth before I was born. It's rather terrifying now that I got little ones. ☹
2.4 miles between the closest island https://www.geographyrealm.com/separated-by-2-4-miles-and-21-hours/
If you consider big diomede island and little diomede island they are that close.
Fair point. Continental landmass to continental landmass is about 50 miles though.
Yes you are correct.
Who would be downvoting this?
The Bering Strait is over 50 miles wide.
Shipping from major world ports is far more effective than this digging a 50+ mile tunnel under the Bering sea so you can truck/train stuff 8000 miles across the Arctic.
This is just more of the conspiracy-crazies-think-everything’s-a-conspiracy crap, and using GAw as a too-receptive dumping ground.
If a 50 mile bridge or tunnel is all that separates our market from the nearly 4 billion man China/India market, then yes, it might be worth it
Ocean liner speed 23mph Bullet train speed 300mph

And thousands of miles of land.
...and thousands of miles of frozen tundra and swamps. Just so we're clear.
And wooly mammoth tusks unearthed from Siberia. One of my guitars has a nut that's made from 15 000+ yo ivory. It rings sweeter than anything.
He made a comment years ago that opened my eyes, said something along the lines of "America is ran by men in black suits". Ever since if tried to find why we are supposed to be enemies with Russia, and cannot find anything of substance.
If it makes money, it makes sense
if it makes dollars it makes sense.
If only the energy from the leftists' heads exploding right now at that remark could be harnessed...we would no longer need fossil fuels.
Let's make it worse:
Уважаю Владимира Владимировича Путина.
Google translate. Best I can do with my rudimentary Russian skills.
Oтлично! Nailed it. Heads will vaporize at this point. [For our fellow patriots, it says "I respect Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin."]
Trump always said he had "great respect for President Xi." Strangely, I never heard him phrase it that way with Putin.
Lincoln and Czar Alexander II and McKinley and Czar Nicolas II all were assassinated for trying to form an alliance.

Yeah but Alaska and the eastern part of russia aren't really economic regions of these countries if I'm not mistaken
You’re missing the point
We ship goods 7k miles on 23 mph boats that uses insane amounts of gas
Instead of training them 8k miles at 300 mph using a fraction of the gas
It’s not just that, it’s the psychological impact of making Americans and Russians think they’re on opposite sides of the world...they want to separate us so we don’t turn on them
Think of all the hispanics in the Americas! Clearly racist.
Ya we have boats and planes that can traverse much faster across the world than via connected landmasses
Ocean liner speed 23mph Bullet train speed 300mph
It’s only relevant if time of day is being discussed
If the news is talking about Russia/US relations or China/US relations... this map would be more relevant
we show maps with different time zones...
It is more like 50 miles even with the Diomede Islands in the middle of the Bering Strait. A tunnel was planned not long after the Civil War and we know where that went....
I love geography. And I don't get the point of this map or what it's supposed to show
As much as I love the sentiment, which I agree with 100%, one point of factual clarification.
The distance between them separated by the Bering Strait, is 50 miles, not 2.2. Proof: I lived in Alaska for 11 years, it is common knowledge up there. Many of the military stationed at Elmendorf AF Base in Anchorage, or Eilson AF Base, or Ft Wainright (both in Fairbanks) have done stints on the Bering. It is common to hear the stories of them stairing at Russians through binoculars and scopes, Russians stairing back. I heard a couple times on holidays, like July 4 and Christmas, they would put on a fireworks show for our boys, waving an American flag on their side. This was all late 80s, early 90s.
Not really an important point, just a small clarification. Thanks all!
It's The Great Race map! Except that movie ended in Paris but that was before Chunnel.
The proposed link has always been about RAIL not road transport.
Right but rail is more efficient for such long distance travel.
Google “world map” and tell me how common it is
because there are no markets. field of dreams fren
yeah. i was talking about the barren lands. which would benefit from rail transport. most markets end up growing near trade routes.
sounds shitty.
