"Today we are witnessing an almost uncontained hyper use of force - military force - in international relations, force that is plunging the world into an abyss of permanent conflicts. As a result we do not have sufficient strength to find a comprehensive solution to any one of these conflicts. Finding a political settlement also becomes impossible. We are seeing a greater and greater disdain for the basic principles of international law. And independent legal norms are, as a matter of fact, coming increasingly closer to one state's legal system. One state and, of course, first and foremost the United States, has overstepped its national borders in every way. This is visible in the economic, political, cultural and educational policies it imposes on other nations. Well, who likes this? Who is happy about this?" - Putin's Prepared Remarks at 43rd Munich Conference on Security Policy, Feb. 10, 2007

Imposing blue jeans on the world?
If others espouse those values we hold in regard, we welcome them, if they hold us in disregard and attempt to
murder us, we kill them. Seems simple enough for even the
most dimwitted leftist to understand.

Thanks for the clarification

Putin's psyching the Russians up for a resumption of hostile attitude towards the US. Perhaps he figures that an alliance of Russia, China, and the Muslim world can take us down
