1. Wow! what a great story!
Haim ,   Tel Aviv   (03.29.14)
I have a feeling Putin rewarded many others who had an influence on his success. We'll just never know about it.

robert sellers ,   hollywood broward   (03.29.14)
I apologize to Mr Putin for all the stupid shit I said about you only because of myiIsraeli and american patrism,my family comes from Russia and Poland ,and I understand many of Mr Putin's outlooks from his side,maybe its truly time for a world government to make sure truth,goodness,wealth and health are shared by all beings,Mr Obama ask Mr Putin what he thinks about that or we could just fire up the nukes and end the whole show.
3. Great story but im glad...

5. Obama the lying jerk
Dror ,   Haifa, Israel   (03.30.14)
Obama has our back with the dying fiat funny money called the dollar. Israel needs to tell him to screw off and form a new alliance with Russia and China. They are going to be the winners, America is going to be the biggest loser. That is why the world needs to keep a very close eye on them, they may start a nuclear war visa vi a FALSE FLAG ATTACK... They are experts in this deception. A nuke may go off in Manhattan, Obama casually stated.

Eaglebeak ,   Left Coast, USA   (03.30.14)
A world government is going to make sure truth, goodness, wealth, and health are shared by all beings? The liberal bug bit you really hard. A world government will not run things any better than the U.N. You can't make a silk purse out of a sows ear and that's exactly what you are telling us. Really you should apologize for the stupid post as it's an insult to peoples intelligence.

Reuven   (03.30.14)
an anti-Semite...quite the opposite. And I think there is much good in him. But I just wish he would stop helping Iran move toward nuclear bomb! If Iran goes nuclear, it very likely would be a threat to Russia too.
10. Heartwarming story
Jhan   (03.30.14)
Go Putin, go Russia, go Assad! Down with the terror mollycoddlers like the Booboo, the Tsipimonster and the rest of the useless kunts.
11. No wonder polls even in the USA favor Vladimir Putin over BO
Rivkah   (03.30.14)
If President Putin goes to [url removed - mod] he will find what T. Chase had found about him, that he has a future as the head of a European coalition after a war with Russia in which Russia is defeated! Such is the regard of the man, that they will want him to rule them even after a war with Russia! Of course, she thinks he is the Anti-Christ and I would not want him to go to hell after all he has done for many. Let's hope T. Chase is wrong since war with Russia and China for the West would be WWIII, catastrophic. But the Anti-Christ does begin be seeming to be like Christ, not Satan. BHO is another candidate for Anti-Christ who is more like what someone who is the devil in human form is more likely to be, to me, with his anti-Elohim policies and hatred of the Commandments of ELohim, even to the point or marrying a male drag queen, Michelle, who has male sexual parts.
12. Putin = A Great Man, A Great Leader!
Z.Lazkow ,   israel   (03.30.14)
PUTIN unlike obama, Talks and Acts to the exact point. Putin has a super clear vision for RUSSIA. He is transforming RUSSIA into a New America. The West is acting against Russia because of Jealousy. How else can be explained the West's strange support of the FASCIST regime in Kiev. When you watch a Russian TV, then you'll see the whole different perspective on Crimea story. You'll see Ukrainian Nazi style terrorism in all big cities, which you don't see on Fox Tv or CNN for example. You'll see how Putin is involved in so many aspects of every day life, in all kind of projects, in different meetings, in all kind of places. You really see his human side. Putin is a very Wise Man. He used an opportunity to save a very important piece of land Crimea and take it back. Russian population in Crimea is over 90%, around 2 million. Jewish population 15,000. When people of Crimea demanded to join Russia, Putin responded accordingly. Thank you Mr. Putin
13. KGB Propaganda
Joe ,   Israel   (03.30.14)
Interesting timing for this article... And what's the point exactly of this article? Should I forget about all the KGB atrocities? Should I forget about the political prisoners and political murders under Putins watch? Should I close my eyes to currentl world bullying that Putins doing? So Putin was nice to his teacher... is the point that he's not as bad as Stalin? Wasn't Mao Zedong also nice to some people?
14. I love Putin. what a great leader.
naro ,   nyc   (03.30.14)
15. I want a friend like him.
J.A. ,   Argentina   (03.30.14)
Really. How many friends, make things like this? Even if they have the posibility. You know that no many...
16. Putin's judo coach was also Jewish.
Doctor ,   US   (03.30.14)
You can rationally criticize Putin for his foreign and domestic policies but he's definitely not anti-Semite. Beside his Jewish high school teacher he also had his Jewish judo coach with whom he kept in touch until his death last year. He attended his funeral in S. Petersburg.
17. Great man
Peter ,   Norway   (03.30.14)
As a teacher I find this story very warming. It is obvious Putin did not do this as a PR stunt, but rather from a warm and thankful heart. Especially in our modern world were showing thankfullness is becomming more and more rare. In USA Jewish academics are dancing aroundt Obama, kneeling to him and trying to do everything they can to please him. And in return they only receice contempt. Israel`s biggest enemy today, next after the homebread leftists, are USA. No other country on the planet are doing more to delegtimize Israel. It is so absurd, and yet so real.

Dont dream: Copy 1:1 what the Pharaohs did !! And this we should know !! -- - Drag queen | the couple has 2 very nice daughters; and when seeing them you see both faces and both figures in them..
19. Suspicious.
David ,   Tampa, Florida   (03.30.14)
I may be wrong but something doesn't make sense here. She was a German teacher so how would that have such an effect on his life to give her an apartment. Sounds like she did something for him in Israel. And what is this confidential job that she had in the Israeli Air Force? Just a story that makes me ask questions.
20. Putin
michael weinreich ,   cape town   (03.30.14)
Well done to you President Putin. you are a good man with a heart of gold. God bless you.
21. Putin and German
Ricardo ,   Jerusalem   (03.30.14)
She taught him German, well. He advanced in his career at a critical time because of her good teaching. He showed gratitude. Great man, great story.
22. Thank You for Printing a Human Story
GF ,   Jerusalem   (03.30.14)
To Ynet, Thank you for printing a Human Story.
23. @19, Mastering German language was a key to Putin's success
trump   (03.30.14)
It is evident that Putin spent much time in Germany for KGB ..........
24. 18: There is a YouTubevideoby a police forensics specialist
(03.30.14)
you can watch for yourself that Michelle O. is a male. Her shoulder width is a male dimension (three head widths compared to a feminine 2 head widths. Her height is a male dimension (8 head heights instead of the feminine 7). She has a male Adam's apple at her throat that has been surgically altered but is still obviously masculine. She has index finger and ring finger lengths that are masculine not feminine. She has masculine neck muscles, masculine biceps, masculine shoulder muscles, masculine thighs and most telling, certain dresses reveal a cup that drag queens use to contain their genitals to make them less prominent. The O. daughters were adopted at age 6 and 9 from Morocco. They are not genetic children of BHO and his drag queen wife. Their marriage was illegal since it was a male marrying a male. The ELS Scripture code matrices on BHO reveal he sodomizes Michelle. That is forbidden in Scriptures in male-female marriages, but obviously, sodomites use the rectum of the partner. He does not have vaginal sex with her since she does not have a vagina. Watch the evidence. It is available online from a police forensics expert with a college degree and many years experience working for a police department in forensics. Watch it and then vomit. Then read the book of Daniel in Scriptures and see that the Anti-Christ hates the desire of women. That means he is a sodomite or he hates the Jewish Messiah since the desire of women is a Hebrew idiom for wanting to be the mother of the Messiah. Or it could mean the Anti-Christ is celibate and does not have sex at all. Most likely, it means he is a sodomite.
25. Vladamir...tells Obama to take a hike
Al   (03.30.14)
No one has his guts...for he was once the head of the KGB. When he says that the new government in Ukraine is a gang of anti-semites, I believe him. Thats why I ask the Jews left in the FSU to leave ASAP. Putin will not be there forever.
26. #19 He used to fancy her, David...that's all
Mark ,   Lodz, Poland   (03.30.14)
27. The power weilded by the KGB was unfathomable
Mark ,   Lodz, Poland   (03.30.14)
Religion was the party and Putin stems from that. For his friends, he is G-d and for his enemies, Satan. Nice to have a glimpse into his decent side. Notwithstanding, I suspect Putin is one of the most calculating persons on the planet and used this opportunity to the max. He knew such a move would make the news and strike a chord in each and every one of us. Putin..Douze points
28. 18: Go to You Tube and watch the presentation by
(04.01.14)
a police forensics expert on the male characteristics including genitalia of Michelle Obama. Ratio of width of head to shoulders is male. Ratio of height of head to height of body is male. Length of index and ring fingers are male. Adam's apple is male. Shoulder muscles, biceps, thighs and shoulder muscles are all male. The drag queen device to conceal the male genetalia is male and can be seen when certain sheer fabrics are worn on her male body. This is very important since Daniel in Scriptures says the Anti-Christ hates the desire of women. ELS Scripture codes matrix at www.arkcode.com says BHO sodomizes Michelle. Well, I guess so since she is a male. The children were 6 and 9 when adopted from Morocco and do not resemble the Obamas and do not have their DNA at all.
29. V.Putin's gifts to his Israel-based teacher
Michael Kerjman ,   Australia   (10.05.15)
It had taken just ten years only to dismantle a gratuitous feature of the Russian President-in days of he supporting an old Syrian enemy of Israel. Probably, it adds to a substantial explanation of contemporary Russia avoiding a disgrace the USSR had explicitly demonstrated by leaving own Afghan allies behind in 1993. At the end of the pipe, might one iron-clad guarantee the next Damascus princeling to be better for the Jewish State than a recent known one already?
30. german teacher has visit with former student
Michael_Dillon ,   augusta Ga USA   (05.31.16)
