@dnik1260 There is no record for how may artifacts that went missing, certainly not your make believe 130k. The US recently returned around 17k artifacts, most of those that went missing were not taken by the US but by the mafias and antiquities thieves who attacked the museums. I'm not saying the US is blameless, obviously they should have done more to protect artifacts and curtail looting, or better yet not invade at all. But the scale of their looting is nothing compared to the Russians who will take literally anything not nailed down.

@dnik1260 “There are no official statistics of how many antiquities were stolen from the Iraqi Museum, and the numbers given are in fact inaccurate and incomplete when looking at the official inventory of the Iraqi Museum’s holdings." Haider Farhan archeology professor at the University of Baghdad. It was Abdul-Razzaq, who previously served as the director of antiquities in the Iraqi province of Dhi Qar, that said much of the theft was by local crooks and artifact thieves. I already said that the US should have done a better job protecting artifacts and preventing looting. Looting is part of Russian culture, the two aren't comparable.

@dnik1260 UNESCO stated that it was working with the Iraqi government to recover more than 40,000 artifacts scattered and dispersed around the world, in addition to 30,000 pieces that had already been recovered between 2017 and 2022. This is the estimted total over decades though, including the massive amount taken by is. Hardly the six figure number you tried to claim the US took that you pulled from the ether.

@dnik1260 Do you have reading comprehension issues? Aside from the number being almost half what you claimed, most of the artifacts were taken by local criminals and later by is.

@dnik1260 I'm sorry but what does this ridiculous comment have to do with anything? Did you know Russia has the among highest rates of fetal alcohol syndrome on Earth and alcoholism in general. It is also completely irrelevant to the topic at hand, just like your comment.

@dnik1260 Per Russian State Statistics Service Rosstat, 22.6% of Russians do not have indoor plumbing. In rural Russia, almost 2/3rd's have no access to indoor toilets, 48.1% use outhouses and 18.4% do not have a sewage system. Maybe that's why they are looting so many toilets, amiright. See how silly that is?

@dnik1260 Wrong, the worst countries for alcohol abuse are Hungary, 21.2% ; Russia, 20.9% ; Belarus, 18.8% ; Latvia, 15.5%.

@dnik1260 Less than half of one percent of Americans don't have indoor plumbing buddy.

@dnik1260 I didn't write anything about toilets, Russian state statistics agency Rosstat did. I posted it in response to your ridiculous comment.

@dnik1260 Yes Moscow is a huge city, which is mostly what CPI measures, and every place in Russia outside Moscow and St. Petersburg are absolute sewers, they were also measured before sanctions and before people started getting arrested for holding up blank sheets of paper. The CPI index doesn't say much about livability. These are the most livable cities ranked. 1 Vienna 98.4 2 Copenhagen 98.0 3 Melbourne 97.4 4 Sydney 97.4 5 Vancouver 97.3 6 Zürich 97.1 7 Calgary 96.8 Geneva 9 Toronto 96.5 10 Osaka 96.0 Auckland

@dnik1260 US crime rates are at historic lows, and dropping. In Russia they are giving full pardons to cannibals

@dnik1260 Like I said you are free to read the wiki article on Russian plundering in Ukraine if you want some evidence. Including the 18% of the countries territory that Russia has stolen. The words that the museums suffered from the local population comes directly from the Iraqi's that were in charge of the artifacts, I'll take their opinion over you, random internet guy.

@dnik1260 Is there a point to this silly list? Why don't you go ahead and list all the countries the US has annexed. The very first one on your list took place took place sixty years before the twentieth century and was started by the Mexican empire. Russia has been involved in 68 wars since the start of the twentieth century, what point do you think you are making?

@dnik1260 Maybe if they made beating your wife illegal in Russia again their incarceration rates would be higher. Which would be great for Russia, they need more fodder for the front line. Crime rates in the US are at historic lows, and dropping, in Russia they are giving full pardons to cannibals.

@dnik1260 You are comparing apples to oranges, we are comparing indoor plumbing to indoor plumbing little buddy. 22.6% of Russian households don't have it, and around 0.5% of Americans don't. Being connected to a centralized sewage system has nothing to do with indoor plumbing. And no the entire US homeless population is nowhere close to a million.
2
@dnik1260 Of course this is all completely irrelevant to you making up stats about what you think the US looted.

@dnik1260 Even adjusted for PPP household incomes are almost double in the US as they are in Russia, please don't pretend Russia is on the same level as the US, its embarrassing. Per Rosstat; Every third household (47m) do not have hot water. In the case of 29m people, they lack even a cold water supply, and 22m lack central heating. These are occupied dwellings, not summer cottages. It's also not all country bumkins, 9% of the urban population about 6,000,000 Russian residents don't have indoor plumbing in Russia. Almost 1 in 5 city dwellings have no hot water, and 1 in 10 no indoor sanitation. More than 70 percent of the country's utilities network is worn out. Can you please explain how this has anything to do with you making up statistics about Iraq?

@dnik1260 I was ranking by alcohol abuse, not consumption there is a difference. If we are talking physical dependecy Russia ranks worst in the world. This is also completely irrelevant to you making up stats about Iraq.
2
@dnik1260 "Well, you are compiling statistics that Russia has "plundered". Right? Moreover, without even basic evidence of this." What is this even supposed to mean? there is an entire Wikipedia article dedicated to Looting by Russian forces during the Russian invasion of Ukraine, if you want to read it. Or you can refer to the 18% of Ukrainian territory they've stolen.

@dnik1260 So just over half of the one million homeless you claimed earlier. You have a habit of almost doubling every stat you bring up I see. For starters, you can't just live on the streets in Russia like you can in the US, or you fall victim to exposure. The Russian Federation has retained a system from the Soviet period called registration. So registration is a form of “ownership share” in a residence, but is parallel to it. There are crowded dormitories, these are businesses that take an apartment and put a bunch of bunk beds in each room. Some are legal (following the minimum living space requirements and do the proper documentation), some are not. Some people living like this have permanent registration in one of the provincial cities, but have come to a larger city for better opportunity, thus they are not technically homeless - they have a home to go back to, typically their childhood home. So you aren't counted as homeless if you have parents. Again, I am curious what this has to do with you making up stats about Iraq.

@dnik1260 I'm sorry reality and statistics don't conform to your arbitrary world view. Unfortunately no amount of personal insults will change this.

@dnik1260 Do you have reading comprehension issues? Most of that was taken by IS and local criminals. Not the US.

@dnik1260 In Russia its legal to beat your wife. US crime rates are at historic lows, and dropping. In Russia they are giving full pardons to murderers and cannibals.

@dnik1260 In Russia its legal to abuse your wife. What a joke.

@dnik1260 Russia is aso notoriously bad at data collection, particularily when the results are inconvenient or embarrassing. For example they were reporting far fewer cases, of C19 than neighboring countries, the second lowest rates in the word after the UAE, despite have lower vaccination rates. Of course this has nothing to do with you making up stats about Iraq, but it seems Russia has the same predilection to falsify data as you.
