>>>It's not "just" spying. Highly recommend reading the entire article."

I read the entire article. The main thrust of the article is about Russia giving covert information, as in secret information to Saddam Hussein's regime. In this case, these Russian covert activities are the equivilant of spying. If Russia gave covert information to an Iraqi intelligence agency, about the movements and whereabouts of Tony Blair, I consider that to be spying, plain and simple.

If I comment on a particular part of the article and not another, that's my choice. And besides, we don't know how much truth there is in this article. Now do we? Don't be so quick to jump to conclusions.

Please don't take it as criticism, it was not meant that way.

It's just that in my opinion, the claim that Russia actually provided a list of assassins in the West and offered to help Iraqis to get visas, exchanging info on Bin Laden, outweighed the spying on Blair aspect, not that it is insignificant.
