What was with the Russia bashing tonight?

[max]

So, in addition to the Muslim Boogeyman, now they want to bring back the Russian Bear?

McCain invoked KGB!

These neo-cons are "certifiably insane." All Putin wants is for us to stay out of Iran and meddling in Eastern Europe. I'm not saying he's a great guy...but there's no reason to fuck with Russia and their Chinese strategic ally.

These republicans are stark raving lunatics

yeah, i was shocked as well. they talked how russia is trying to build empire and provoke us, like, we are the only one with the divine right to build empires or whatever...

 

[Paulitician]

It's called propaganda

 

[aksmith]

It's actually kind of ironic. Bush looked into Putin's soul and saw what? A Teddy Bear? Some kind of freedom fighter?

Putin is a thug. And the fact that the neocon in chief misread him so badly, when he has Russian expert Rice at his side, says a lot about why we should be constructively disengaging from world nannyism.

These debates are a joke. But they manage to scare the poop out of me every time I hear these fear mongers.

In fact, if Iran were a real thread, what Putin thinks about it would be irrelevant. But it isn't, so we should just butt out.

 

[Hook]

The military-industrial complex needs some more cash flow. Russia is the best bet for that.
Probably Putin told the Neocons to shove off, so now we have to go after Russia now.

Here's a link to Gary Kasparov the former Chess champion from Bill Maher this past Friday, he has an interesting insight on the US and Putin from a Russian perspective. The whole interview is pretty good.

It doesn't really answer your question, but I just thought it was a good interview.

 

[Kregener]

The neocons are s-l-o-w-l-y re-stoking the Cold War.

Do you own Defense stocks? If you don't, you should seriously consider divesting yourself of ALL "paper" holdings...yesterday.

 

[Chrispy]

The neo-cons understand that terrorism and the fictional "Islamo-fascism" just isn't scaring the shit out of the public enough anymore. They figure restarting the cold war could give them absolute power over their sheep.

Putin is a scumbag who seems very interested in bringing back the Cold War and secret police.

 

[max]

Putin has cracked down on the Russian Mafia. The big bosses of the Russian mafia are actually neo-con aligned. Putin chased them out and they settled in UK and Israel.

International Zionism wants him out. Kasparov is their tool.

Again, this is not to say that Putin isnt a thug (what world leader isnt)...But our beef with Russia stems from bucking the NWO gang a bit....not because he's a threat to us.

 

[paulitics]

We are fighting over oil in Iran. Iran is the battleground, and there is still a cold war going on. Read the neocon books, and you'll understand better.

not true...it is we who are provoking him

 

[TVMH]

I would guess that the "neocons" are trying to foment WW3.

I don't want WW3...1 and 2 were enough.

you do know that Putin is the only one been against the Eu union, i dont think other primes of russia would be against eu.

since i bet some and most of the future primes of russia would be paid off by the Eu union.

True, but we're the ones that abandoned the SALT treaties first.

he probably is but who cares? let just mind our own business and build strong defense.

 

[freedominnumbers]

Actually a new cold war makes sense. Only this time we set ourselves up to be the country who goes broke. Then the Canadian prime minister steps in and suggests a North American Union to save us. We all love our new neighbors, north and south, for saving us from the despair of economic collapse.

He's a russian! How many times has russia been invaded by european nations??? Of course he's against them all getting into a nice big alliance, right next door.

We provoke him, therefore he assassinates Alexander Litvinenko and Anna Politkovskaya. You don't make any sense. Putin is a former KGB scumbag.

EU can do what they want.
