    I'm from the UK and also ignored my government's advice to not travel to Russia and have visited twice in the last three months. I visited Saint Petersburg and Moscow and had a wonderful time. I felt safer walking around the streets and riding the Metro than I often do in my home country. I found the people to be respectful and welcoming throughout.

    How to recognize propaganda:
    1) When given a problem, fear rather than reason is used to present the solution.
    2) When you're pressured into accepting the solution.
    3) When you're not allowed to question the solution.
    4) When the solution involves surrendering your freedoms.
    5) When your eyes see one thing, but you are compelled to believe a different thing.
    6) When the solution means giving small groups of people control over larger and larger things.
    7) When dissenters are censored for refusing to accept the solution.
    8) When dissenters are targeted by accusations from different sources, suddenly and all at once.

      If you are a granny with magazines about Jehovah you are in trouble in Russia for they are outlawed.
      "Jesus" means "Jehovah is salvation". This is the name of Christ real christians are hated for.
      "HalleluJah" means "Praze Jah" (Jehovah).
      Psalm 83: 18: "That men may know that thou, whose name alone is JEHOVAH, art the most high over all the earth."
      A lot of believers await for the God's Judgment and do hate His witnesses...
      The problem is Devil runs the world. He is lier and murderer. This is the reason why Hitler got the power, but Christ was executed as "blasphemer" and "rioter" by denunciation of clergy.
      That's why we've got the Gospel about the God's kingdom. Jehovah would put everything in order. The dead will be resurected and we'll meet our loved ones again! :-)

      Jehovah's Witnesses are a cult! The name Jesus,does not mean Jehovah is salvation! You need to study Hebrew and Greek language. JWS teach that Jesus was a created being like Lucifer,which is a total lie. They altered the text in first John that says that Jesus is God. They are the only religious group in the world that did this,why is that? Over the years,they also made false predictions about the end of the world. They stopped doing this because they were always wrong and people noticed. Ask a JW about shunning. Is that something Jesus would do?

Super safe, clean and so much to see. Very good value for money as well. (eg.

Everyone I have met upon discovering I am an American have been polite, friendly, and respectful. Oh, and to Scott, go to Saint Petersburg. If you loved Moscow, you will never want to leave Peter. I spent 2.5 years teaching English there, and between the weather, the museums, the castles, the history, there is no better place in all of Russia. And while I love the area I am in now, there is something special about Saint Petersburg.

    Brother of my girlfriend has an apartment in St. Petersburg, I definitely want to go visit.
    I am very grateful for Russian influence on European politics and society in the 20th and 21th century, I can't even imagine how bad it would have been without her help.
    I'm reasonably aware of the true horrors of The Empire and if you stand up to it, it has to be met with equal or greater force, one cannot walk away from that a saint.
    Still, the restraint and control, it is beyond what I can imagine I would have shown, but that might have something to do with the exposure to the brutal and mindless propaganda in the EU.

    I've been coming to Russia annually for 15 years and have not had a single unpleasant experience. I feel that the major Russian cities that I've visited are far safer than almost any major American city. It is absolutely Beautiful. If you haven't seen Russia yet, you really should because it is really unique; you will really enjoy it and will quit falling for the Western propaganda. That is why Washington is discouraging travel; they want you to fear the unknown...be very very afraid. NO, come and see it - you will love it.

Or open a MIR card at the bank and use only the card. All you need to open the card is a passport and in 2 hours you'll have it in your hand.
