I wouldn't have predicted this outcome in a million years. Muslim terrorism is clearly the top enemy to both the USA and to Russia, we need only look back at Beslan to see that this is true. And now Putin wants to point his polonium-stained finger at us.

He is making a big mistake. Not in his reasoning, for he knows all too well that this bluster about NATO being more dangerous than Muslim terrorism is false. Putin is erring in alienating us when we need to be working together. If he wants to bring back the Cold War, he will regret it. And for certain, Russia will continue to be attacked by Muslim terrorists, with or without our help. Unless Putin is secretly siding with the Muslims against us...and may God help Russia if that is the case. A majority Muslim Russia is truly the world's worst nightmare. Mohammed with thousands of deliverable nuclear weapons. Think about it.

Russia seems at least adept at dealing with Muslims on it's territory. Christian education in schools, zero tolerance for islamofascism.

Russia's entire history is one of almost attaining greatness before self-destructing.

Five years and we'll be feeding them again.

[Ooh-Ah]

...Putin is secretly siding with the Muslims against us.

With this strategy, he wins--we won't call him on it or make him pay. And, he gets market$ and possibly some help for the terror problem he faces at home.

this bluster about NATO being more dangerous than Muslim terrorism is false.

Tell me, did US suffer more from 9/11 than Serbia suffered from NATO?

[Steve Van Doorn]

Why? During the war in Kosovo Clinton and his butt boy General Clark nearly got us into a war with Russia, China and India. Lucky for us people with in NATO refused a direct order to attack the Russians.

Sender,
I guess I could respectfully disagree.
Either we or the Russians could wipe out Muslim terrorism in days if we decided to. The only reason Islamic terrorism flourishes is because we don't want to eliminate the obvious (Mecca, Medina, Riyadh, Damascus and a bit of dismembering of Indonesia). The muzzies may have one or two tiny nuykes (which could still ruin your day, of course) but not tens of thousands and the missiles and subs to deploy them from.
