Waking up the bear

<< Until the NATO attacks on Serbia, Russia was a nation severely divided over politics. There were no "common enemies" among the disparate factions of Communists, fascists, nationalists and democrats. The once-fearful Russian bear was asleep. Bill Clinton fixed that.>>

Hi Searle,

Your post reminded me of the above article.

Everyone is underestimating the Russian threat ... Russia was not strong economically during the second world war, but that didn't stop them from performing rather well and that was before Nukes, chemical and biological weapons of mass destruction.

Let's not forget that 19 NATO countries are allied against the Serbs and they are still having trouble bringing them to their knees in less than several months.

Of course Russia will say they will not intervene, even as they prepare to do so. Meanwhile, the US is running very short of cruise missiles and guided bombs and is tied down on several fronts, all of which would probably become active if Russia intervened.

Stopping Russian tankers is an Act of War against Russia.

John

PS - I am not a fan of the Russians ... Just trying to see through all the propaganda.
