It is the people of Russia who disintegrated the Communists. If Reagan or any other US President was all that brilliant, then why couldn't they succeed in China?

Let us give credit to where credit is due. The Russian army refused to fire on the tank that Yeltsin was standing on. The Russian army switched sides and fought with the people. The Chinese army didn't. It had nothing to do with other countries.

And that is why this Iraq policy pursued by Bush is going to fail. It is the Iraqis who need to win their freedom through their courage and bravery.

How many Iraqis do we see are fired up to join the police and army? They are not. Their mindset is different.
