Located in Germany and Ireland, I claim to be the Sift's longest probational Member :-P It took me 1,5 years to submit my first video. But behold, there's more to come! What I like? If it purrs, it's for me! Four paws or four wheels, i don't care :-) Love them both...

Yes, Putin is prime minister, i.e. head of state. But head of government is Medwedew, so the US president would mostly have to deal with him. Same as with the english queen. She's head of state also, but every political discussion is with Gordon Brown.
Ok, i admit, with Russia and Putin there's this little autocratic thing going on ;-)

He is the prime minister...
Maybe you should read more newspapers.

erm.. Putin? Please Matt, read more newspapers.
but i agree with you, the add is anti-war, not anti american.
In reply to this comment by conan:
erm... Exactly where is the comparison between Nazi aggression and US aggression? I did see some US flags in there, but i don't think they were used in a specific anti-american way but just because the by far biggest part of military footage (fiction or reality) shows US military and the creators of this video had to take their clips from somewhere. But where was the Nazi reference?
Maybe Mink mixed up the german word for german ("deutsch") with dutch (our northern neighbors)?
What i do like best is the fact that this video mixes two types of "propagandas", scenes that are taken from ads (i guess) and scenes that are taken from anti-war movies. I think it's pretty strong, also because of the great music choice and the very slow change of mood / setting from heroic to horrible.
Actually, my money is on covert alien invasion. About 8 years ago aliens came in the night and shoved us into fleshy-duffle bags where our minds, linked up by technology we cannot even begin to grasp, have slowly degenerated into madness.

I don't believe it any longer. Palin can't be true, i'm convinced she isn't real. This is all just a joke to entertain people.

In reply to this comment by conan:
omg i love that one. i think we already had it on the sift but what do i know ;-) It has it all: Weißwurst for breakfast, the Maß of beer, a Volkswagen burning rubber (though that should rather be a model Golf/Rabbit) and of course the beloved sportsuits. Just so great

What is it with his cheeks?
I am partial to cats that are black and white "masked" marked. My kitty has a black mask and black spotted markings on her back with a black tail. She also has a spot on one of her front legs. I hear her markings are also called "cowcat," for obvious reasons. Cats rule!
In reply to this comment by conan:
Thanks :-)
Her name is Werra, she's Russian Blue. Those are my favourites, although even typing that gives me a bad conscience because i love them all :-)
