Russians were never near behind sunni terrorists attacking the west in the last decades.
They are simply longer in business and somehow more experienced.
They had their Carter moment with Tehran embassy raided and ambassador killed too, but it was in earlier 19th century.
Russian approach to muslim issues were shaped about that time, long before any political correctness, humanitarianism and collateral damage terms were invented.
I wonder if he will also insist that parents get handcuffed by being threatened with abuse charges if they punish their kids - works so great here...
Mostly I meant that the Russian know how to deal with cunning, murderous brutes, having previously manipulated and used them against the West.
The Russians are smart enough to not worry about whether or not these people, and those they claim to represent, like them; instead they just make sure these people develop an abject terror of them. That is an example I think we should follow.
I have seen collective punishment work remarkably well.
Also I refuse to listen to arguments from American leftist Democrats against it, they have to quit legal persecution of families and supporters of conservatives that exercise their Constitutional rights before I'll listen to anything they say.
