If Americans choose McCain, they will be turning their back on the rest of the world

Sounds like a threat. Notice that this guy can’t make the same pitch to the Russian public about Putin.

I am inclined to believe that Mr. Freedland should be more concerned with his home country’s politics.

Hmm. Wonder what that could be? Maybe they won’t call on us when the lights go out because the Russians turn off the pipelines. Yeah, that will show us. /s/

There you have it. Elect Obama or else left-wing British newspapers will be mighty upset.

I don’t remember voting in their elections.

They can stop tampering with ours.

The funniest thing with all this is that there is little difference between Obama and McCain...

Suddenly Europeans and others will conclude that their dispute is with not only one ruling clique, but Americans themselves.
