One's ancestry is irrelevant to this matter. Along with France and Germany, Russia was up to its neck in deals with the Iraqi regime before the Allied invasion of 2003. Russia and France had the lion's share of the oil contracts in the UN's oil for food program. Cooperation between Russian and Iraqi intelligence and military dates back to the days of Brezhnev. There were numerous reports of Russian military advisers in Iraq after the Gulf War of 1991, including up until a few days before the Allied invasion.

If the Russian special forces (Spetznaz) moved the 380 tons of munitions to a safe place such as Syria, we can rest assured that this was not low tech, conventional stuff. It was probably the weapons of mass destruction that President Bush and Prime Minister Blair proclaimed were held by Saddam Hussein. Gertz needs to fill out his story and the Bush administration needs to give him 100% cooperation. If the Bush White House fears offending Russia, they may find themselves, after January 20, 2005, in a position where they won't have to worry about such matters for at least four years.

If there were WMDs in Iraq and the Russians helped hide them, these facts vindicate Bush's decision to go to war. If the case is strong, all the conservative talkers, the Internet news sites on our side, Fox, the Rupert Murdoch and Conrad Black media groups, etc., need to get the information out prominently and immediately.

"Not everyone who thinks differently than you is Russian." Are you Russian?

Damn Mr. McCarthy, what the hell right do you have to start questioning the ethnicity of everyone who questions your ravings? Fifty years ago another group did just what you are doing, but they were searching for Jews. Or did the idea that people might not agree with your far fetched theories not strike you as possible? And what if she is Russian? Does that make her less American? Or if she's Irish and still thinks your sky is falling stories are nuts, does that make her less American? Welcome to America and the right to have multiple opinions.

Outside the fact that you are obviously paranoid you are proving yourself to be a racist equally. You've asked just about every freeper that has countered your arguments their ethnicity, as if that plays a role in intellectual debate.

You, sir, are an out and out bigot.
