This image is untouched from RIA Novosti. Get to know these men. (click on for image gallery link) They are taking aim at the USA. The Russians will launch against the USA if Bush does anything to stop Russia from defending Iran. I have never meant more than that statement. Bush will invade Iran to ensure a war that the USA House and Senate cannot back away from when Russia engages the USA miltary. The House and Senate need to be encouraged to move against the Bush White House in censure. There is plenty reason to do exactly that including the out of control Justice Department.
Russia is closing it's borders to immigrants and casual market imports for a reason and it's not to punish the Russian people either. It's all too obvious to me. It should be to everyone else as well.
Let me pose a question. Not such a simple question, but, certainly one that makes complete sense to explore hypotetically. If you were Russia, knowing what you know about the way the USA 'toyed' with Iran over nuclear technology, would you trust the USA about any other technology exchange?
This is a peacetime initiative. Over and over and over again the USA's people and the global community are reminded that the, to quote Bush, "... USA is at war."
Russia is preparing for war with the USA as soon as Bush invades Iran. "Bomb, bomb, bomb Iran" was a stupid thing to say. See, the only reason Bush would invade Iran, at this point, is to guarantee a war the USA House and Senate could not back down from when 'The Evil Empire of Russia' is opposing the USA. The only purpose for an editorial such as the one written about immigrants serves, is to attempt to undercut the Russian image in the USA and allow the promotion of war with that nation.
Get over it. Russia is not the enemy. The same people that brought the region an illegitmate war against Iraq is desperate to save it's political party from complete and absolute same for the elections of 2008. Given McCain's outburst, it's going to be a very difficult task, hence, the desperation goes up. I am not impressed with Bush's offer to 'make nice' with Russia. The lousy missile defense shields don't matter anyway. Realize there are so many nukes in the world right now there is no missile defense shield that could stop them. MDS when it completely deploys in space will be a defeated system. Ask China.
War is war. Russia will not 'double back' on Iran. They won't be dealing with the USA while at the same time their military is committed in Iran to defend that country. Are people thinking out there?
The Senate and House needs to start to formulate a solution if Bush becomes so brash he actually thinks he has legitimate grounds to invade yet another sovereign country.
IF THIS IS TRUE. I suggest finding a way of dealing with it without adding a 'third' front for USA military to be stretched even thinner, while Bush demands instilling a draft to fight Russia and China. China won't be far behind Russia if it starts to look ugly.
Get over it. The USA under Bush has a defeated military and Osama bin Laden is still within a protectorate in Pakistan/Afghanistan. Time to bring the troops home, regroup and find leadership that can assist NATO and the Brits to secure Afghanistan. It's called 'starting over after a traitor's war of defeat.'
