Rofl I can't believe this petition actually has 20k+ votes. God bless mother Russia.

But I'm still upset we sold it to you yanks. In the 1800s it didn't seem very important, but now there's so much profit from the natural resources in Alaska, not to mention the beautiful nature.

One thing I have noticed is that the ethnic Russian population in Alaska is much younger than the general population.

For example, in Delta Junction only 19.64% of the general population is Russian. But among the children, the figure is 31.10%.

Does any one know that even now Alaska is having a sizable ethnic Russian population?
It seems that they need a new political party, like the citizens of Crimea... So, we have to send Mr. Aksyonov to Alaska...  Cheesy

I guess that Sarah Palin could be appointed as a new Chief Prosecutor, so no additional staff needed.

If the US were to give up Alaska, they'd be giving up all their territorial/mineral rights to the thawing artic circle.

They won't be doing that.   Wink

How do people come up with this shit?

I dunno - but I'm sure that if Alaska were to have a referendum tommorrow that had an 80% turnout it would be an unprecendented event in modern western democracy (shit, 55% is doing OK these days for US presidential elections).

 If then 95% of that 80% voted in favour of going back to Russia, for whatever reason, it would most certainly be seen to be a violation of international law and everything that we hold dear in the free world  Wink  Grin

So - Obama is legit on 50% x 55% = 27.5%

Crimea secession is an infringement of human rights with 95% x 80% = 76%  Huh

Why leave one oppressive regime for another?
If you don't like regime then declare extended autonomy. Autonomy of federation subject could vary, extended autonomy allows you to implement a fully custom regime on your territory.  Smiley Remember the Finland as a part of Russian Empire, for example. Borders were protected by Imperial militaries but Finland used independent political system (parliamentary republic, own police and monetary system) and Emperor was nothing more than a symbolic figure here. Another similar case is Hong Kong, it's a part of China but employs independent political system too, and Chinese law doesn't work here. Smiley

I doubt United States would give back Alaska without a World War III. The petition is a joke.

Everyone knows that the petition is a joke. The only possibility of Russian regaining Alaska is in the event of disintegration of the USA.
