quote: ORIGINAL: mnottertail Ok, thanks, I stand corrected on number one. You're welcome, and I'll grant your second point about "much ado". But in my opinion, calling the Russian response to Crimea's request for assistance in maintaining peace and security an "Invasion of Ukraine!" is more provocative of "ado" than the assistance itself. K.

Yeah, that is a real tricky bit, but like the US would be big ass at American Samoa should they vote to go with say Portugal.......... And there is some heft to the argument that Crimea has been front loaded with Russians and is not the will of 'real' Crimeans. Almost as if First Generation Mexicans took over the West and Southwest again and started passing laws about Mexico. At this point and with the Treaty between Russia and Crimea (and with Ukraine as well) their presence in stabilizing the port (and even some of it under pretense if that is the case) in the Crimea, isnt an invasion by any stretch of the imagination. I would be ok calling it an incursion, but that is strong too. It is not a clear easy cut and dried thing here, Ukraine and Russia got to negotiate a settlement, Ukraine and Crimea, and Russia and Crimea.........and they all gotta be ok with whatever it is they can negotiate.

I always got the impression you didn't like him but he seems to occupy your every thought. And now every other post has his face shining back. Makes me think you can't get enough and post them just so you can scroll through and admire that strong jaw line. The irony of a personal attack from someone who moans about them wont be lost on many of us. Your personal attack on owner, does nothing to alter the fact Bush was, is, and will be an arsehole, along with Blair. The more photos of these two clowns, the better, lest we forget. At least our Labour Party are trying to distance thereselves from the former Golden Boy. Good point polite.Thanks much. If we were only talking about sports teams losing or losing a shit load of money it would be one thing. But the amount of dead soldiers both British and American lost through blair and bush`s bad faith acts make the tragedy real and lasting..... There`s no equivalency to that treachery and damage done.....and no real sympathy for republicans who whine how unfair it is to point out all the dead soldiers they helped get killed.

Maybe so, but I think boi is into something. You gotta admit, Owner has made a career out of channeling him. If you're not with us, you're against us. In fact, come to think of it.... K.

Owners reply to me says it all....... Many of us wont forgive either Blair or Bush for the needless loss of life, more so since there has been no real change for the people of Iraq.

More than twice as many U.S. troops were killed in Iraq under Obama's willing continuation of that "bad faith" war than died during Bush's entire presidency. Got anything to say about that? Or is this just a circle-jerk sponsored by Hypocrites'R'Us? K.

Four of the five years under Bush have a higher death rate than all of those under Obama added together. http://icasualties.org/ I suggest you let someone else do your maths and stop suggesting I am a hypocrite.

Not that I'm in favor of us being in Afghanistan either, or that I don't think Owner is a hypocrite, but you have my apologies on this one. As we're on the topic, however, how do you feel about the spiraling body count from Obama's continuing military adventures? Have you ever seen this? K.

On Thursday morning, President Barack Obama signed an executive order which designated the ongoing crisis in Ukraine prompted by a *Russian military invasion* of the Crimean Peninsula "an unusual and *extraordinary threat to the national security* and foreign policy of the United States." ~Source Jeeeez.

I have never been critical of Bush going after AQ, just the fact he didnt finish the job when he had then trapped at Tora Bora. It didnt help he let the Pakistani ISI fly AQs top men out of Afghanistan either. I fail to see how you can hold Obama to account for Bushes adventures though. Obama would have been slated for not trying to finish the job. That said, your link was stunning and backs up what I said about Bush Snr and his New World Order. Cheney, Rumsfeld and others have, in my opinion, had an agenda over several decades. The question is, will Obama try and do as we are in Europe, and use diplomacy, or will he go down the military route. After Blair and Iraq, any UK PM will find it hard to get the backing of both Government and the population. General Clarks speech was stunning, not that it revealed anything new, but that someone so high up in the military had the balls to speak out on the issue. Just seven short years later, the pigeons are coming home to roost with a rise in Islamic terrorism in countries where there was none. Its the result of replacing Governments you dont like with corrupt leaders, a lesson US top policay makers need to learn. I am glad we agree on something so important.
