annonymous
REPLY: This isn’t the primary time I’ve been informed that. Any present I’ve been on that listens to that is clearly probably not somebody you’d belief, since they might be adhering to the censorship of free speech. I’m NOT in opposition to the Ukrainian individuals. I’m in opposition to the Neocons who couldn’t care much less if ANY Ukrainian remains to be standing on the finish of the day. They’re utilizing Jap Europe to wage struggle on Russia, and that features Poland and Romania. I’ve heard feedback just like the Jap Europeans have been communists anyway. The place has this struggle benefited Ukrainians?
Catherine II, the Nice of Russia, ordered the founding and development of the town of Odessa, the place in 2014, the Neo-Nazi Ukrainians have been brazenly killing Russians on the streets, which started this separatist motion. I’ve heard that I’m on Zelensky’s loss of life record. I imagine he killed one in every of my sources in Ukraine, Gonzalo Lira, who was the primary to reveal that Zelensky was a coke-head.
Odessa was certainly based by Catherine II, The Nice, not by Ukrainians. It was the port positioned on the precise web site of the Ottoman settlement of Khadjibey. Odessa was first talked about in 1415 when it was referred to as Khadjibey. They even erected a monument in 1900 to Catherine because the founding father of the trendy metropolis. Town takes its identify from the traditional Greek settlement of Odēssos (Ὀδησσός) positioned within the area of modern-day Bulgaria (close to Varna), not as a result of it was constructed on the identical web site, however as a part of a pattern within the Russian Empire to make use of classical Greek names for brand new settlements within the northern Black Sea area.
In essence, Olbia’s historical past is a narrative of Greek colonial ambition, exceptional prosperity constructed on frontier commerce, deep entanglement with highly effective nomadic neighbors, and a protracted, gradual decline beneath relentless strain from the steppe, lastly succumbing to the Migration Interval upheavals of late antiquity. Olbia was based by settlers from the highly effective Ionian Greek metropolis of Miletus (in Asia Minor) across the center of the seventh century BC (historically dated to 647/6 BC or 645 BC). It was an apoikia (colony) established primarily for commerce and entry to assets. This was the city-state that used bronze formed in dolphins or arrowheads as cash.
Throughout the late 18th century, because the Russian Empire expanded southward and based new cities within the newly conquered territories (New Russia), a deliberate coverage was applied to make use of names evoking the traditional Greek colonies that after dotted the Black Coastline. This linked the brand new Russian cities to classical antiquity and European civilization. The precise identify Odēssos was chosen. The preferred and enduring story includes Empress Catherine the Nice. When discussing the founding of a brand new port metropolis on the location of the captured Ottoman fortress of Khadjibey (Hacıbey) in 1794, somebody recommended naming it after the close by historical Greek colony. Nonetheless, the female type of the identify was most popular to match the grammatical gender of “city” (gorod) in Russian. The traditional metropolis’s identify was masculine (Odēssos).
It’s typically recounted that Catherine decreed the female kind “Odessa” (Одесса in Russian Cyrillic). A persistent anecdote suggests {that a} French nobleman in her court docket, maybe Armand-Emmanuel du Plessis (Duc de Richelieu, who later turned Odesa’s well-known governor), playfully referenced the Trojan Conflict epic by saying one thing like “Que ce soit Odessa!” (“Let it be Odessa!”), alluding to the area’s Homeric connections (Odyssey -> Odessa). Whereas this story is charming and broadly informed, historians think about it extra a legend than a documented truth, though it displays the classical influences of the time.
The identify “Odessa” (Одесса) was formally established by Catherine the Nice’s imperial decree on January 27, 1795 (new type calendar). The Neocons don’t care about anybody however themselves. I really feel sorry for the Ukrainian individuals. That they had a rustic, they have been free, till the Neocons determined to use them for their very own private hatred of Russians as a result of the earlier technology had been communists. They have been simply indignant that communism collapsed all by itself, they usually by no means acquired to shoot anybody. They can’t stay with out hating somebody and waging wars endlessly to fulfill their private vendettas.
These Neocons challenge onto Russians and Chinese language the exact same targets that they aspire to. They care nothing about historical past. There are NO Ukrainians there in Crimea. About 15% of the inhabitants are Tartars from the Mongol invasions. When the individuals of Crimea voted to hitch Russia, the Neocons claimed the vote was rigged. Why in God’s identify would they wish to be a part of Ukraine with the ethnic cleaning and hated that the noticed by the Neo-Nazis in Odessa in 2014? The individuals have a proper to stay in peace. The Minsk Settlement was meant to permit the Donbas to carry a referendum. This isn’t about human rights and greater than Israel’s assault on Iran was about nuclear arms after they killed a lot of the management for that is about regime change.
