["I hope so too...
Putin, was in fact reffering to the US and the UK because the US and UK have offered asylum to some the Chechen rebels that the Russians are after.
We need to get behind Russia on this and quite pussy footing around about the damned arabs. They mean to kill everyone not them and wipe our civilization from the face of the planet. I hope that after Bush wins in November he begins relentless carpet bombing of the Iran and Syrian borders to wipe out the terrorist training/holding camps that they watch everyday with RPV. Non of this precision JDAM crap, just some good ol fashion carpet bombing.

How about Stalin's deal with Hitler, Pootie?
Yeah, well, thanks to you and your russian chums, Pooty, you exported your vile socialism to America over the years and IT IS THOSE VERY AMERICAN SOCIALISTS (that you SOBs created!) who have the patronizing and indulgent attitude toward terrorism that you now so bitterly complain about. What goes around comes around. You have no one to blame but yourself.
Putzin just woke up. Didn't BUSH say something like that in 2001?
While I agree that Israel has now teemed up with Russia, at least in the short term, there is grounds for comments about Russia and it's support for Hezballah.
Russia has been a staunch supporter of Syria for a long time. It was willing to let Syria do whatever it wanted in Lebanon, and if I remember correctly warned the U.S. about it's dealings with Syria.
Syria has been the lifeblood of Hezballah, allowing them to operate within their sphere of influence. Syria is a known sympathizer of terrorists, has had training camps for decades.
More recently Russia hasn't pushed it's support for Syria, but then we have been fairly docile when it coms to Syria. We shall see how it goes if that changes.
Israel is overlooking quite a bit to coopertate with Russia on a number of levels. Immigration to Israel from Russia was almost impossible before the Iron Curtain fell. Russia has been pretty supportive of the Araba anti-Israel states over the years.
Let's just hope this is truly the beginning of a new erra in middle-east, Russia, Israeli and U.S. relations.
You don't suppose Russia is thinking of attacking them, do you?
Really!
Why the change of heart?

Could you elaborate for the memory-impaired?
Is he being hypcritcal, or is he changing Russsia's (soviet) traditional support of arabs? I don't know the answer, but he said something very similiar to Bush in pre-emptively fighting terrorism anywhere in the world, and we need allies in Iraq, Russia's entry would throw the pansy euros for a loop.
IMHO, whatever grievances chechyna had is greatly overshadowed by their pre-meditated murdering of kids. In any case, it looks to be an area where US and Russia could cooperate in some form or another.
I wonder why? What so important about chechyna, that we need to alienate a huge potential ally on the world war on terror?
Wouldn't it be smart on our part to join Russia in it's war on chechnya terrorists and have them help us too?
Why are we doing that???? Doesn't that make us the hypocrites?
The idiot was not only given asylum but we're paying for his new job and medical care too.
Welcome to our judicial monarchy.
Putin emerges as the replacement for Powell!
Finally!
