Russia Says Pullout From George''s Underwear Underway

Get that visual UnAmurrrican.....HAHAHAHAHA!!!

[oneamerican_]

The Kremlin knows it can count on a small vocal contingent within the U.S. to support its imperialistic Neo-Soviet agenda - also known as lunatic fringe liberals.

But both groups are going to have to pay a heavy price, and for a long, long time, for their evil ambitions.


Breathe it in deep, "nextGenMan".

Georgia isn''t the only place they''re pulling out of....I''m sure Bush is very sore right now...

"Russia will pay a price."

Let''s hope.

I think they are flexing their muscles. They want the rest of the world to know they still have power.

A NEW REVERENCE FOR INTERNATIONAL LAW?

What is most interesting about the Russian invasion of Georgia is how exquisitely reverent Bush and Cheney and Rice and all the other architects of Bush''s war in Iraq have become about the principles of national sovereignty and territorial integrity.

They are clearly indignant when Russia does, on a much-smaller scale, exactly what they did in Iraq. And compared with Saddam, Saakashvili was left in power (at least, so far).

Here on display is official Bush Double-Think in its full, Orwellian glory.

Rice is Exhibit A-- From her academic background, even Rice understands principles of international law matter a great deal in drafting a responsible US foreign policy.

As an educator in the California university system, Rice was also the first to insist the Communist bloc honor such principles, as well. Her area of specialty was foreign affairs, and the Soviet bloc, in particular.

But hitching her wagon-- pre-2000 election-- to the rising Bush star, Rice clearly forgot about such principles. So complicit did Rice become in the Bush conspiracy about Iraq, she was content to moan about the threat of a "mushroom cloud" and any other tale handed her for publication.

(see "A New Reverence for International Law?"--2)

A New Reverence for International Law?--2

On some days, Rice probably wishes she had stayed in academia.-- at least there, she could publish for GOP thinktanks in taxpayer-paid obscurity.

Finally, we are given to understand the Georgians have committed their share of offenses under international law, as well. To the extent these are factual, Georgia must understand international law applies to even the natives of South Ossetia and Abkhazia. The two, miniscule territories fear absorption by either Russia or Georgia. They want to be left alone.

All to say, many parties are involved in an affront to international law in Georgia and nearby regions. How startling a tactical move it might be if Russians were actually to honor the principles of international law in Georgia, and remove their forces-- now positioned in direct violation of the truce they just signed.

In effect, by honoring international law in Georgia, Russia would dramatize the illegal Bush conduct in Iraq. On his way out of office, Bush could reflect once more on the stark contrast-- if Russia could demonstrate respect for international law, maybe he should, as well.

The incredible stupidity of the so called OneAmerican''s posts on this forum is astounding. Anyone who doesn''t agree with him and George Bush is a lunatic fringe liberal. Well, this lunatic fringe did his time in the US Army and is perfectly willing to speak the truth to idiots like One American who don''t seem to understand that part of what we''ve fought for is free speech. I doubt One American ever spent a day in the US Military. I think his IQ would have prevented that.

That said:
While we''ve been wasting our wealth and thousands of lives in Iraq and Afghanistan (Russia learned that lesson too) the Russians have been rebuilding their nation and their economy. They''ve been under attack by Islamic terrorists far longer than us and in fact we gave Bin Laden weapons to beat them in Afghanistan and crowed about it under Bush Sr. So do we have any moral ground to stand on in this fight. No!

Seeing that Georgia was part of Russia for nearly 200 years (almost the length of time that the US has existed). I would say Russia has and should have a much larger stake in what goes on there than we can or even could. So One American, we armed Bin Laden against the Russians who were there fighting the Taliban and Islamic terrorists. They were 20 years ahead of us in this fight. Bush-Reagan armed the the Islamics with stinger missiles and trained them. Our payback was 911, you happy now OneAmerican- we armed the terrorists or don''t you get it?

Why the hell would the US use military force on Russia.That would be the stupidest move the US could possible make.Russia way get the wrong intention and see this as war.Then the world would really be on the brick of a nuclear war,now nobody wants that.Using military force on Russia is not the answer, hopefully not for a while.What really needs to happen is European countries need to step up too.

[noloyalisti]

This whole thing smells like a Rovian conspiracy to further scare the sheeple (mostly GOP but also the Christian evangelical fascists. This is perfect, threaten Russian security, give Georgia a wink and a nod (like we did for Saddam before he invaded Kuwait) and then blame Russia. Oh, and scare the sheeple so they will support McSame and the GOP (Government of (rich) Pigs)

[rob416]

So far according to the latest news reports Georgia has seen little pull out of Russian troops. That in spite of the Russian President saying the pull out began today. What a surprise! The Russians well know that there is nothing the US can do to make them leave. Why? Our forces are tied up in Iraq and Afgahnistan.

We can thank George W Bush & Company for Iraq, a War that has gone on longer than WWII. If we were just in Afgahnistan as it should be, the US would have the military force to get the Russians out of Georgia.

In fact I believe the Russians would have thought twice about going in if they knew we were able to back up the rehtoric coming from President Bush and Sec of State Rice. Remember the days when America could stand up and the other side did back down. Those days are gone and that will be another negative legacy of the Bush presidency.

mike19767,don''t get me wrong here thats what I think.Nobody opened fired on the Russians and the Russians didn''t open fire on anyone.I feel that the Russian tank need to do that but oh well, their Russians.
If I saw Canadian tanks rolling over police cars in Detroit,who knows what I would think.lol

[sepa2]

The days that seperate East and West on ideology is much better than present day seperation on ethnic and economic grounds
