We were talking about the decisionmaking leading up to the invasian. He had a muke programme, which had been canned, and a chemical programme which was largely dismantled by the inspectors. If you know something else, by all means. Would be interesting to hear after all these years.

So ?. I'm not suggesting Iraq was justified, more that both the US and Russia do whatever they please and lie and cheat to make the public go along with it.

No, the Bush administration lied. They decided to sidetrack Blix and the weapons inspectiors and present a situation where there was a continuous threat from WMD. A complete fantasy as it would turn out. The media was in no possition to challenge classified material. They simply reported what they were presented from both Washington and Downing street.

Misinformation campaigns and irregular warfare was Putin's modus operandi in south ossetia as well as Crimea. A sudden 'need' for military intervention presents itself and he retains deniability. You are honestly fools to believe much of anything with an official Russian stamp of approval. Western media has a different disease. Quite often an editioral line or simply entertainment masquarading as news is what muddles the waters. There are precious few news outlets concerned chiefly with a reputation for impartiality and quality reporting.

That one's marginal. More clothes next time please. -
Why is Khazakstan all smug.

For these far right politicians it is far more important to cause a stir than to say anything legible. I guess he just took it to the logical next step.

I was going for 'everything but the kitchen sink' meaning a lot... of Russians. --------------- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poles_in_the_Wehrmacht It was a matter of signing a paper making you a naturalised German citizen, or possibly be forcibly deported to go live with the 'undersirables' In addition to those, penal battalions of Poles were part of the force opposing the D day landings, and of course the Polish paratroopers on the other side at Arnhem.

"United States' claims at being a democracy seriously threatened"

You can't affect lobyism or campaign finance by voting since basically everybody is dirty. Instead they have simply become examples of what is wrong with the system and the futility of trying to do something about it. -
And Polish 'volunteers' as well of all things. Most of them volunteering not to die of starvation.

Maybe it has something to do with Nazi archeology. They believed they had traced a proto arian to the area around Tibet.

Makes you wonder if they are going to put themselves in concentration camps once they take over. Aren't Russians supposed to be untermensh

I like the guy with the minigun babushkas. What's his name anyway ?

matter of fact a kindergarten teacher here with 20 kids in tow has right of way over normal traffic. the same right of way given to political rallys' demonstrations and funeral processions. except it's always in effect.

Same excuse as Putin really. The poor Russians in Karelian Isthmus must be protected = territorial gain. Except the Finns knew they had to show Russia that they wouldn't take it lying down.

I mean how jaywalking became illegal to begin with. It's kinda a seperate problem from the saftety of schoolkids. Firstly the road is usually plastered with signs with little kids crossing the road, secondly kids aren't supposed to cross the road outside the crossings, 'jaywalk' if you will, alone.
-
Well, you just break the law. Jaywalking is pretty common here, occasionally the cops do a crackdown because too many pedestrians get killed by cars but for the most part they ignore it (like everything else, heh). Or because you're black. Supposedly the whole thing is a scam, legislation pushed through by special interest. The whole 'jay walking kills' campaign. Not supported by stats.

Ridiculous doing the whole swat act for non payment of grazing taxes, I have to agree there.

She's a media personality, which has kinda overshaddowed her 'cause'. It doesn't help that she apparently makes a living milking the controversy. Get a real job already ?
