Sir Leonid:

You are so (painfully) right about Brazil, that if it were to help to sit down on the floor and cry, I'll do so.

It started wrongly by being not colonized with morality but exploited and by the worst kind of "Europeans", 5 centuries ago. Now, the scum took over.

Even though I perfectly speak their language, know very well their literature and their "colonizer" literature, and even though I lived there for the most part of my life, they insist I"m a foreigner...

IN some parts I have to take extra care not to be assaulted b/c they know how foreigners Love to come to Brazil, and see its beauties, yet are sucker enough to be robbed and unprepared to the wild environment it is....

Last time I was there, I was accused by an African descendant of being an occupier (for being descendant of Russians).

Pity, the poor soul was stupid enough to forget, his ancestors, a mix of Angolans and Portugueses, invaded that beautiful land 500 years ago, massacring Indians and others kinds.

That's all b/c I, in my right, was using a facility and he wanted to use it at that time, so being me an occupier, I should give to the king preference....

The Poor soul couldn't combine or link a noun to an adjective...

The "native" labeled me as such, not only b/c of how white I was- how outrageous it is, too white, but also according to my Portuguese....Which, BTW, I"m proud to say is far away better than many scholars and judges..."Their word...".

It is hell and an inferno.....Hezbollah has 3 cells there, and makes most of its profits from Paraguay Vias Brazil and the "intelligence" funded by the government, an off shore where the former parasitical military keep their profits, rather than priming for the security of the country, is a joke....

You are so right.....YET,There are wonderful things there and some codes of morality are still one, for example behavior, but these things you addressed, Oy vey

Lucky are those two Russian and Ukrainian Communities, in central Brazil, that for 200 years have been living isolated like Amish, reason why they, to this very day, do not even speak a word in Portuguese, yet they are intact.....Lucky them....
