| You've filled most of this page so far with a string of huge quotes with no comment of your own at all. No one's going to wade through all that. If you've got a point or points to make, say them succinctly in your own words, and only then by all means link to supporting sources if desired. |

Does so for the simple reason that its a bigger target to hit than any other country- its the world's biggest country in land area.

| In hindsight, of course, I realized what they really meant is to learn their unspoken customs and non-verbal norms... And what this means is, not simply learn as in know what they are, but yourself religiously conform to them as an inalienable precondition for friendship they will accept as such. I... |
