Fabio.... My knowledge isnt limited.. What she says doesnt relate to the real world.. My ancestors lived in Persian, Ottoman, Roman, Byzantine Empires.... And what?? Do u hear me going around saying GREEKS OR ROMANS will rule the world??... I could care less if she is the ancestor of Chingiz Khan itself, I dont give a damn.. the fact that she goes around the site and puts "Altaics will rule the world" is an ignorant comment.. She doesnt live in a realistic world.. So, get over it and know that whatever she says will never come true... One more thing, what does altaics rulin the world again have to do with Eurovision??... NICE. LOL

The fact your knowledge capability is so limited does not mean Lady Sarantuya is a liar. Russians lived in tiny towns, like Smurfland, when this lady's ancestors ruled one of the biggest empires the mankind has even seen. That's not bullshit, be serious. In addition, Sarantuya is from noble lineage. She's said to be a descendant of Kublai Khan, even the current president of Mongolia is aware of it.

SHE'S THE ONE AND ONLY! We love you, Saraa!
AMEN!

“Altaic pride will rule the world”…
An illusory belief according to which from the figures of the unreal one day real deliverance will come. You definitely run the risk of believing yourselves better than others and misusing your critique as an ideology for imperialism.
Domination through physical violence or cultural superiority is your belief I wonder…

It isn't hard to do
Nothing to k*ll or d*e for
And no religion too [/i]

Great news!

@Lady Sarantuya B.
I can't say many positive things about a person who believes world domination is the way to go. Extreme nationalism is like a disease. That (and religion) has been the root of nearly all wars in the past.

Altaic pride, huh? I don't hear many people boasting about Scandinavian pride. I like to think that we've grown out of such nonsense. :) Having countries and extreme nationalistic pride is bad enough...

And this will help a lot Azerbaijan to qualify.cos Turks across europe prefer watching esc @TRT.Turkish tvs broadcasting in europe already advertise azeri entry.I watched a promotion video about day after day on 'Kanal D europe' last night :)On the other hand this will decrease our Deli's votes on the big night.

@Fabio, why dont u follow ur own advise??.... I mean if u think that this girl knows what she is about, then its your thoughts.. But u cant force me to think that what this girls says is true, simply a fantasy... I mean, Russians fearing them?? Come on, give me a break... RUssians arent scared of nobody, she should get that right.. America doesnt even know where her home oblast is, let alone fear them.. And the way u see it or believe the way someone sees it, doesnt mean its enforced on others. OK?? ANd i said bullshit because thats what it is, simple lie.. And people get tired of seeing the same meaningless thing..

@ NORO:

I feel sorry for you, seriously.
You're just afraid to face the facts.

Now if you'll excuse me, I have some horse-cheese to eat.

Bayartai sweetheart.

Shut up, man!

Lady Sarantuya is wise. How do you dare she's spealing bullshit? Everytime she opens her mouth to say something, it's because she KNOWS what she is talking about. If you are not ready to cope with her statements, you can always ignore her.

Long live, Lady Sarantuya!
I am your most devoted fan! :)

@ NORO:

Why?? We almost succeeded a long time ago, why won't we be able to do it again?

We have the Chinese at our feet!
The Russians fear us, not to mention the americans.
