I wonder if there are any huge successes by our State Dep.? Some “achievements” of the agency seem to be just the opposite thing. The State Dep. did well in Yugoslavia. Did it really? How can it be so with Kosovo still a big thorn in our side? Next goes Russia and post communist space. In Russian Chechnya we were actually supportive of separatists linked to terrorists. Russians accused us of double-standard policy. INHO they were right. We should stay firm in our denial of terrorists and separatists. At times I think 9/11 could have been the result of our previous inconsistent approach to those radical elements. Our backing of Baltic states, Ukraine, Byelorussia and Caucasus is excessive on money terms. The huge amount of money we spend there in no way pars the dividends we get. The same refers to Central Asia. Despite the bounties with “made in USA” tag our military bases there are slowly but surely being forced out. Actually there’s no country there we can really rely upon. What next? Iraq & Afghanistan. Just no comment! Isn’t it time to stop and think it over again?

WTF are you talking about? Is there any particular point that you are so unsuccessfully trying to make? BTW, welcome to FR!

I guess you haven't noticed but we have reached a time in the history of our planet where a relative handful of people are desperately trying to gain the ability to MURDER millions of innocent people in minutes.

We fight the now or we fight the after we bury our dead. Grow up before you kill someone.
