Obama Again Lectures Russia on Appropriate 21st Century Behavior, Russian media responds with an article stating that Russia should seek return of Alaska, as the purchase was not lawful for number of reasons

Russian main stream media is probably as censored by the ruling regime, as the US media, so the article from Russian Rambler below was probably o’k-ed by the Russian government. They know that NSA scans all the information from foreign media and they send messages through their media.
Obama appeared at a G-7 meeting in Hague and claimed that he will provide Europe with all the gas it needs and he lectured Russia about borders and freedom not being free. Of course, US does not export natural gas yet and will not be able to do so for a number of years,. Judging by the fact that in 5 years Obama did not sign a no-brainer Keystone Pacific agreement, I am sure Europe has serious doubts about reliance of Obama and his promises.
What was more interesting, is an apparent response from Russia. They posted a number of articles. One of them recommended for Russians to buy real estate in Crimea, which of course, will increase Russian demographic presence there. Another article (see below) stated that Russians believe that the purchase of Alaska in 1867 was not legal. The article provided a number of arguments, which I personally do not believe would be considered valid in the international courts. They claim that the agreement was never ratified by the Russian Senate. It is similar to the fact that any agreement signed by the US president has to be ratified by the US Congress. They also claim that the contract was not valid, as the fee was unconscionably low, that the total 7 million for the whole area amounted to only cents per acre of land and they claim that the check could not be traced, that it was cut, sent by a bank in London, which is now defunct, but they could not trace it from there.
First, they agreed that the check was given by the US. Whether they did not get the money from the intermediary, the British bank, does not invalidate that agreement with the US. Further, 7 million today may not be much, however 7 million in 1867 was a lot of money and the purchase would not be considered unconscionable. Lastly, while normally a contract needs to be ratified, it is highly questionable that the US government would pay 7 million without proper ratification of the contract. Further, there might be a defense of laches, meaning Russia waited too long to bring forward their questioning of the validity of the contract, even if it was not properly ratified, though they claim that Lenin raised this issue during WW1 and Stalin post WW2, he sought to swap their agreement to forgo any claims to Alaska in return to Europe’s agreement to Russia’s sphere of interest in the Eastern Europe. Now it appears that the Western Europe broke that agreement.
Further, as I reported a couple of days ago, they posted a very embarrassing photo-shopped image of Obama as a woman, with long hair and covering his/her breasts, which may be a message from Putin: “Barry, we now about the assassination of your gay close friend Donald Young, as well as another gay friend Larry Bland, which happened right when you started to run for US President”. It appears that the picture and article were since removed from Russian Rambler, though can still be found on this site.
It is clear that Putin simply ignores Obama and pushes right ahead. Further, what is most worrisome, it that Russia is not interested in having Obama removed from office, they are perfectly content with having a weak and compromised US leader. They just push the strings when needed to make sure he continues policies which destroy the US military and the US economy, such as 7 trillion of additional debt, purging military of 200 top officers, cutting funding to the military, cutting pensions of the veterans, unilaterally cutting the US nuclear arsenal and cutting funding for the Tomahawk missile production.
Let us hope that the US judges will wake up and render an opinion which would finally expose Obama’s use of fabricated and stolen IDs, which in turn will cause his impeachment and a change in policy.

Here’s what I think is wild:…
Russia media wants Alaska back?…and then, all of a sudden, we see a lot of signers of a petition on the WH account!
Who would sign this petition?
