Russia is irrelevant. The only question is: how do remove Sadam the Scum in the most efficient manner possible? When we pull this off, we will not only make the world immediately safer (taking the scumfinger off the WMD trigger) but long-term safer (emboldening resistance movements around the world to rise up against their dictators).
...or is because they just signed a extremely lucrative business with Mr.Saddam to the tune of 20 Billions of US dollars, and misc others contracts valid only under Saddams reign. Translation...
If Mr.Saddam gets ousted all the contracts will be null and void, and the Russians will hold the bag.They do not like that, hence the noise...
If I were the president I will proceed full speed ahead, since the Russians are not more than a third world country with a nuclear armament.
...and a rusty one I might add.
What's with this old red bear rhetoric?
It seems the communist party is making a lot of noise lately.
