Glad to know that all those who were killed, maimed, and/or raped in all the pogroms were not victims of "racism" because the Cossacks, black hundreds, Nicholas the Bloody, et al., had no "concept of race." It must be a real consolation, as well, to every African student killed, maimed, and/or raped by skinheads to know that Russian skinheads, unlike their counterparts everywhere else, are not "racists."

Ever heard of the Christian Coalition? "Our" Xtian Fundamentalists are more than welcoming to Blacks, "Jews for Jesus," "cured" Gays, or anyone else claiming to be "Saved."
