Russia is for Russians. Damn right. The country where negroes are afraid of whites, and not vice versa.

SETH MYDANS; The New York Times

MOSCOW - The morning starts with 100 pushups for Constant Olivier Diboi Kath as he prepares for the most dangerous moment of his day - his subway ride to chemistry class on the other side of town.

Diboi Kath, 23, a student from Cameroon, says he feels threatened by racist thugs every time he leaves his dormitory.

He has been abused, beaten and even shot during his five years at People's Friendship University, where about one-third of the students come from developing countries.

"At any hour you must be ready to fight," he said over the sound of loud rock music in a campus cafeteria. "On the Metro, on the road, on the street, everywhere. So every morning you have to do your 100 pushups."

Racist attacks on foreigners - Asians, Arabs and especially blacks - are a continuing problem whose victims have included diplomats and U.S. embassy Marine guards as well as students.

Last year, ambassadors from 37 African nations appealed to the Foreign Ministry for protection for their citizens. Human rights groups have documented widespread harassment, often with the compliance or support of police.

**Racist attitudes lie deep within the Russian psyche and are growing worse, ** said Aleksandr Brod, director of the Moscow Human Rights Bureau, a private group that monitors discrimination.

The driving force is the proliferation of white-supremacist skinhead groups, which enjoy widespread support and are fueled by nationalist political groups and publications, he said.

There are now some 200 nationalist publications around the country with racial overtones, he said. In parliamentary elections earlier this month, a dozen parties campaigned on extremist nationalist agendas, with considerable success.

"All this Nazi ideology gives rise to hatred of all non-Russians," Brod said. "And so, many people even think skinheads are not bandits and hooligans but Russian patriots who are fighting for the purity of Russian society."

As a result, he said, "Literally every week in Moscow and in other regions of Russia there are attacks by skinheads on members of minorities," some, he said, fatal.

A suspicious late-night fire that took at least 42 lives at Friendship University three weeks ago has intensified fears among minority students. A number of them - particularly Chinese students - cut short their studies and headed home, fellow students said.

"If there is another incident like this, we are all going to leave," said a 23-year-old student from Gabon who would give only his first name, Georges. "I just want to finish quickly and leave Russia forever, forever."

The university, which now has 12,000 students, opened as Patrice Lumumba University in 1960 to serve students from countries the Soviet Union supported in Africa, Asia and Latin America.

Although the fire is officially described as accidental, most minority students are convinced it was arson. They say that for weeks, before and after the fire, bomb threats forced students into the cold streets during the class day or in the middle of the night.

The fire took place in a dormitory for newly arrived foreign students, including students from Angola, China, Vietnam, Ecuador, Ethiopia, Afghanistan, Ivory Coast and Tahiti.

Survivors said the reaction of the college administration only added to their feeling that they were outcasts.

"They did not even give us one day off," said Sydney Ocran, 23, a journalism student from Liberia who videotaped the fire.

"There were students inside banging on the glass, calling for help," he said. "I took a close shot of the hands banging on the glass and then their hands just went down the glass, sliding like that, and they were gone."

And that was that.

"They put out the fire at 4 or 5 a.m., and students went to school at 9 a.m.," Ocran said. "That is amazing to me. Forgive me if I'm wrong, but I feel that they do this because most of the victims are foreigners."

At the Moscow Protestant Chaplaincy, where many African students find spiritual refuge, the attacks have become part of the worship service itself.

"Nearly every week, or every other week, someone stands up and says, 'Please pray for me, I had a run-in with skinheads,' or, 'Pray for my friend who was beaten by the police,'" said pastor John Calhoun.

Muslims can be targets as well. Last summer, a 19-year-old medical student from Malaysia was beaten at a McDonald's restaurant, apparently because she was wearing a head scarf.

"'Russia is for Russians,' that's their motto," said the woman, who declined to give her name. "They were just laughing, laughing. It was because of my head scarf. They didn't like me wearing this."

An attack can happen anywhere, Diboi Kath said, but some times and places are worse than others. "Like the Metro Green Line. If you want to die, you go there at 6 o'clock."

National holidays and major sports events - with their drunkenness and heightened passions - are times to stay home, many students said.

Diboi Kath said that although he loves sports he has never been to a soccer stadium or a basketball game in Moscow. "It's like a dream for me," he said. "The cinema is like a dream. If you go to the cinema or to a stadium, it means you want to die."

Boo hoo! The disease of postmodernism has never fell on fertile ground in Orthodox Russia.

If this [I]nekulturni[/I] behaviour persists, and if the multicultural policies huckstered in the West continue, European Russia will in a very short order be home to the only comfortable majority Aryan population anywhere. Equally important is that, based on current trends, the inhabitants will be race conscious, whereas white dissidents elsewhere will still be a tiny minority of a minority of whites, absence mass awakening from hypnosis.

One possible order of battle at some future date may see resource rich, zhid free (hence politically isolated), predominantly Aryan Russia line up against resource poor, oil-addicted, zhid teeming, mongrel masses of the Occident.

Perhaps “The Great Patriotic War” series may see additional volumes. Such occasion would be even more meritorious of so grandiose a title.

What a concept: targeted nekulturni behaviour = local culture preservation (or at least grater likelihood of preservation). :bash:

My understanding is that the Soviets brought in many Third World students (and non-whites from Europe and the U.S.) as a propaganda effort to effect world opinion favorably during the Cold War.

Post-Soviet Russia would seem to have no further need for these programs or unassimilables.

There is a lot in the US that American whites don't need either.

This is just a cheap education for some. I am reminded of the much homogenious environment in Russia whenever I look at some photos of the place. VERY different from typical scenery in the US. Naturally, those darkies and brownies stick out, and Russians don't seem to hold divershitty in high regard.

If only America had chosen White agricultural labor (serfs), too, instead of the millions of negroes imported. Today the mistake is being repeated with cheap-labor mestizos.

Diversity--compounded by greed--is our Suicide.

Great news!

I've always wanted to learn Russian; maybe I will now with an eye toward moving there some day.

Hard White fists smashing the ugly brown faces of wog interlopers - and all to the cheers of general society. Beautiful. I still love this country packed with emasculated "whiteguys" and jew-hypnotized nipple-pierced femitwats, but I tell ya, Russia sounds like a near paradise for alienated Whites like us: gigantic in size, stunning in natural beauty, and packed with some of the most gorgeous, ultra-feminine White ladies on the face of the earth.....

Back in the USSR. You don't know how lucky you are....

Who cares how many pushups His Nigs does, some enterprising Russian will gut him like a carp one lucky day soon, and take the hyde from the nauga, and get a nice new nauga-hyde motorcycle seat or something.

I tried learning Russian once, some of those letters are WEIRD but at the rate Putin and the Russian people are beginning to create a White paradise, I may take it up again!

Odessa here we come!!! :)

"'Russia is for Russians,' that's their motto," - this bitch says this as if it is appalling to even suggest such a thing. I mean how dare those Russians not just sit back and let themselves be invaded by hoards of low class heathens. What nerve!

I think its GREAT though. At least someone can look at places like the US, Britain, Germany, etc... and see just how this forced immigration has panned out. Ultimitely though, once the government deems it as being absolutely neccessary for a population increase in order to sustain their economy, then the gates will be opened there as well... And unless the people ban together to stop it, its inevitable! The powers that be will see to it. For their very power will depend on it. Just like all the other race traitors in all the other European countries that sell their people on this "we are all equal" bullshit, in order to look out for their own economic interests. And when you need a population increase what could be easier than letting in the scum of the earth that is waiting at the door? Rather than promoting their own people to start reproducing more.

Like the brother above said. 'Diversity--compounded by greed--is our Suicide.'

Before everyone gets ecstatic, in the news, menorahs were lit on a large square in Moscow, and in the Kremlin.
