Viktor Zinger and Evgeny Zimin come immediately to mind.<br /><br />Germany have a few naturalized Russians in the player pool now.<br /><br />Soccer is easily Germany's most popular sport. The hockey team has long relied on naturalized Canadians and, more recently, Czechs to boost the talent level.<br /><br />Rolf OelerAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-951782330457966647.post-33241963790864837712010-01-29T11:27:36.743-05:002010-01-29T11:27:36.743-05:00rolf, you may find it interesting that the fastes...rolf, you may find it interesting that the fastest growing jewish community in europe is in germany. actually, they are jewish immigrants from russia and ukrainemichael molovinskyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12581039755319742687noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-951782330457966647.post-51373878140295230722010-01-29T11:08:34.956-05:002010-01-29T11:08:34.956-05:00It is hard to be a proud German sometimes.

Thank you for profiling this woman. She did what she could to seek justice, love kindly and walk humbly with the Lord (Micah). And thank you for helping us to remember Holocaust. It is a great service. <br /><br />GeoffAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
