      I’m not missing the point. Putin and the guy after him was trying to recreate their military forces after the complete collapse during the Elcin times. And I’m talking completely dysfunctional military. The situation had been so miserable that US had to pay for the security in the Russian nuclear facilities. Then was the fiasco in the first Chechenian war. So one of the reason Putin was elected was because he has promised to fix this pathetic situation. Their rate of buying military equipment is far behind those of China and India and they have to protect 150 million people and territory with the size of North America. This doesn’t makes them a rogue state what IMO you are trying to imply.

      Where did I say Russia are a rogue state??? All I said, if you bothered to read it properly, was that out of China and Russia I would have picked Russia as a country more likely to get involved. To quote: "That’s why I was rude". You said it and I'm not 'bitter', just don't like rude people - no need for it and no excuse.

          basically the zionists from AIPAC (seemingly the most powerful lobby grp in DC) and Israel are forcing your boys n girls into harms way when really Iran having a nuke wouldnt make a lick of difference since most of the neighbours do anyway. Iran wants to use less of its own oil because its profitable to sell it, Iran wants to be energy independent.... Israel has the 5th largest WMD arsenal on the planet and they commit war crimes on a monthly basis(with US weapons) against the palestines. It will start WWIII though...:~ because China and Russia have massive investments in Iran and would like to see those investments mature USA hit peak Oil production in 1971 and has been stealing it from arabs ever since... The reason Iran hates you guys so much is the CIA / MI5 installed the "shah of Iran" a brutal dictator that bleed his people dry until the revolution, BP did real well though.

              No, I really feel that Putin, given the chance, would love to reclaim the USSR. He's already won the election with, apparently, massive voter fraud and will, I'm sure help Medvedev back to be PM or similar. So, do I think they're gagging to to flex their muscles? Yes, I do which means I think they're more likely to get involved than China (which is far too involved in making money).

                    On the occassion of the 60th anniversary of the creation of Isreal: "Those who think they can revive the stinking corpse of the usurping and fake Israeli regime by throwing a birthday party are seriously mistaken. Today the reason for the Zionist regime's existence is questioned, and this regime is on its way to annihilation." or "The Zionist regime has lost its raison d'être. Today, the Palestinians identify with your name Khomeini, your memory, and in your path. They are walking in your illuminated path and the Zionist regime has reached a total dead end. Thanks to God, your wish will soon be realized, and this germ of corruption will be wiped off."

                          Oh come on. That's just being stupid. For those who don't know, he's referring to this passage: "I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but thou art rich) and I know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan" I cannot respect the opinion of someone who makes such a blanket generalisation.

                            True. I am biased against the government of the USA in the way they are handling the Middle East and Pipelinestan. As for coercion: "If you’re not with us, you’re against us." Neutrality is not an option?

                              Oh come on. That's just being stupid. For those who don't know, he's referring to this passage: "I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but thou art rich) and I know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan" I cannot respect the opinion of someone who makes such a blanket generalisation.

                              I thought it was very targetted... zionists = synagogue of satan. nothing more nothing less. normal Jews unfortunately get mixed up with these other "people"

                                  well if i can cite "facts" and all you do is discount them without any citation or supporting docs / ideas / evidence then i sumise that you are infact blindly anti-everthing and utterly blinkered to accepting the current situation around you.

                                    You haven't cited any facts: you've just made statements.

                                        You started out with 'blah blah Zionists blah blah'. I just can't read past that sort of insane prejudice.
