Meanwhile, our university professors claim that without Russian approval, the US has no moral authority to attack Iraq. The US only acts in "selfish" self-interest, you know, unlike the noble French, Russians, and Chinese, who in the 20th century have freed... oh, surely they've freed someone somewhere to deserve such unadulterated respect. (Of course, they'll only have our Leftists respect if they veto Bush's Iraq proposal. If they approve it they will have "capitulated" to our "pressure".)

Putin should smite the jihadists wherever he might find them.

The US should not have created the UN if it does not want to play by the UN's rule. Russia (when it was the USSR) never wanted a UN. Russia is not saying no to Bush's Iraq agenda, just that they want a say in it, as is their right as a security council member.

I guess the reports that they wanted to talk peace was the same as the ones that said Islam is the religion of peace.

PS: I want out of the UN. While a member I feel honor bound to follow its rules, but I don't like their rules, so I want out.

Unlike what Clinton would do, Bush an honorable man, is playing by the UN rules as he is duty bound to by treaty approved by the senate when they approved of the US memebership to the UN.

It is going to get worse before it gets better.

Hell on earth is comming to the jihad.

Russian military in Chechnya thirsting for revenge: Moskovskiy Komsomolets believes the time for talks is over. It ponders President Vladimir Putin's comment that Russia "will respond with measures commensurate to the threats". Experts the newspaper consulted weren't certain but thought "this might mean the pre-emptive use of weapons of mass destruction". In other words, troops in Chechnya will now "have the chance to use military hardware and weaponry previously regarded as unsuitable for local conflicts at home and intended only for warfare on a global scale".

These Isalmists are not very intelligent....Putin is getting ready to bring the hammer down. I believe Russia will come around regarding U.S. policy towards Iraq in exchange for a free hand in dealing with Islamic Chechen scum.

Btw, howcome these guys have been shooting down helicopters, but the Palestinians haven't been able to bag any IDF choppers yet? What's the secret?

An excellent observation and question.
Do you have a theory?
