So who does Russia see as the Class Enemy; the US or Israel?

Russian Foreign Minister Igor Ivanov said Tuesday that Moscow is prepared to use its veto power in the UN Security Council to ensure that war is not waged on Iraq.

Taking the keys out of the F-16s' ignition is the only way now, comrade. Care to try?

veto power in the UN Security Council to ensure that war is not waged on Iraq.

Sorry pal, your veto will have nothing to do whether war is waged or not.

We should hold back support for the Russians in Chechnya. What comes around goes around. Foreign Minister Ivanov would well to remember before doing something his country will regret because one way or another Iraq will be disarmed with or without the UN's blessing.

Time to give up on the UN. Send an undersecretary of State to attend all Security Council meetings instead of the Secretary of State, have him veto any and all resolutions regarding anything that any other nation proposes, and demand that UN headquarters remove itself from United States territory forthwith (presumably, and appropriately, to Geneva). The UN will then whither away, the US will not have to worry about what Guineau or France or Syria thinks about its foreign policy, and the world, through United States peacekeeping operations, will become a safer and saner place.

When Khruschev said "nyet," he meant "nyet." Putin, on the other hand . . . . even if he really meant "nyet," I just can't take him seriously.

Let him deal with Chechenya, and we'll deal with Saddam.
