The U.S Government is giving the Russians and the Israelis very different advice on terrorism than the one in maintains for itself. If Al Qaeda murders 3,000 Americans, its evil, beyond the pale can't talk to them. But by golly, the Russians better talk to child killers and the Israelis should sit down without those who blow up busses. I'm sick of the State Department's double standard in the War On Terror. Colon Bowell is out of his freakin' mind!
The U.S. is not trying to force an unwilling populace to live under permanent foreign rule or to settle lands inhabited by others. America went to Afganistan and Iraq to purge the terrorists and their supporters from these countries, not impose imperial rule or to displace the native population.
