Well this definitely means that Hans "I see nothing" Blix is full of sh*t! President Bush is vindicated, but of course the hating-America leftist will never admit they were wrong.

"The failure of US policy makers to comprehend the veiled aggressiveness and hostility towards the United States inherent in Sino-Russian strategy and the belief that the political and economic reforms in Russia and the partial introduction of capitalism in China have foreshadowed these countries' development into real democracies, have eroded the effectiveness of US policies in the foreign affairs, defence, intelligence and counter-intelligence fields. US policymakers have recklessly accepted the premise that Russia and China are no longer their enemies, but are rather potential allies and partners fully deserving of US support. Only countries like Iran, Iraq and North Korea - which (ironically, in this context) work secretly with Russia and China - are still considered potential adversaries.

US policymakers should urgently re-examine their assumptions about the 'progress' of Russia and China 'towards democracy'. They should take account of Sino-Russian strategy and should recognise that the long-term strategic, political and economic threat comes from a Sino-Russian axis and associated participants like North Korea, Iran, Iraq and Syria. The Russian and Chinese leaders are still committed to their objective of world domination and believe that, disguised as 'democrats', in accordance with Leninist teaching, they will be able to achieve it..."

I was wondering if anyone knows how far the cruise missiles can fly?

The story has been on the Jerusalem Post all day, and was on Breaking News here.

I heard about the chem plant, but I hadn't heard about the missles.

I was out at a Support the Troops Rally - it was great fun!

What is the scoop about the missles from Russia ...??

I thought the funniest thing I've heard so far was the ABC Radio reporter who just said that the troops may have found the chemical weapons facilities the Bush administration was "desperately seeking". There are some desperate people in this fight, mainly the Iraqi high command and their allies in the American Left.
