President Vladimir Putin said Saturday that he thinks Israel is pursuing wider goals in its military campaign than the return of abducted soldiers.
"However complicated the questions are, maximum efforts must be applied to resolve the situation in a peaceful way and I think all efforts have not been exhausted," Putin said. "However, it is our impression that aside from seeking to return the abducted soldiers, Israel is pursuing wider goals."
LOL! Get on the trolley Pooty or go back to your ash heap of history.
Pootie is slow on the uptake... Israel already said that given the missiles raining down, the objective (in Lebanon) is now the destruction of Hezbollah.
And I imagine that will expand to dealing with Boy Assad soon, and more.
How can there be wider goals? Like an good KGB man, Putin should know the Jews control everything anyway!/sarcasm
Wasn't he ZOTTED
as A+Bert? What's his new
screen name I wonder . . .
Perhaps we should focus on enforcing peace in Cheneya eh Vlad?
Like you've done against Chechen terrorists, Putin? /sarcasm
How many countries would tolerate missile attacks against their own territory?
I too have fond memories of that time. When good men stand up, and stand together, the walls come tumbling down.
But, no, I don't think Israel will take out Iran's nukes. We are the ones who have bases and carrier groups on all sides of Iran; it will fall to us to do the dirty work, or better said the work of the angels, when it comes to it.
The only question, which raises the hair on the back of my neck, is the size of the provocation it will take to get us to move on it.
Dear Putin, DUH...... are you really as dumb as you seem? OF COURSE Israel is purusing "wider goals" such as responding to the border incursions and hundreds of rocket attacks across the border, hopefully in a way that will diminish Hezbollah's capacity for such attacks. If it were Russian citizens being assaulted in such ways YOU, dear Putin, would be purusing a "scorced earth" policy until you had eliminated every last Hezbollah sanctuary. Israel, in comparison, is far more restrained (much too restrained, IMHO) due to the insanities and depravities of the "international community".......
LOL...Putin actually posited this idea.....out loud?
see post from Martin Fierro.
ROTFLMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Never saw that one before!
In related news, Putin sucks bilge water.
How ironic it is that Putin supplies weapons to every terrorist state in the world then feigns surprise when they use them for something besides defense against an invading aggressor.
You hit it right on the head, Excuse. If George W. didnt need Putins cooperation so much, I think his tone to the russian leader would be somewhat different. If we got the slightest bit of cooperation from Putin and his Kremlin cronies, Iran and North Korea might not be the destabilizing problems they are today.
