Do yourself a favor and go to Google's image search bar and type "New Russia". What you'll have pop up is thousands of images of new Russia as that term is widely in use throughout the country. I've been over there 8 times believe me I know.

How many times have you been to Russia? Or are you one of those people who are stuck in the past thinking it's still the Soviet Union and Cold War? Possibly because you maybe had some family that was wronged by the former USSR?

One thing I have noticed that is obvious is that the recent introduction of that term "Novorossiya" into the Western press and US mindset has occurred only this past week. It's another form of propaganda and you seem to have bought into it......enjoy that spoon fed terminology if you like.

Here's a good example of it's recent use and obvious placed propaganda for people that are stupid enough to indulge in having their info constructed for them.

Do you seriously think the media barrage on the term is a coincidence. The agenda is quite easy to see....if you open your eyes.

Oh the irony as you complain about Russia and we are the ones being spied on, lied to, media manipulated and paying for destabilizing countries. And you have the gaul to complain about Russia. Get a life Nadin....it's 2014.
